Benefits of technology

[0014]In the present invention, the carriage accompanies the movable yarn guide in accordance with the control data for the movable yarn guide in the knitting program. Therefore, the position of the yarn carrier is controlled finely, and the yarn carrier is always kept at a suitable position relative to the yarn carrier. In the structure, it is possible to smoothly feed the yarn to the yarn carrier. Unlike the structure in which the yarn carrier pushes the movable yarn guide to move the movable yarn guide, the suitable distance between the yarn carrier and the movable yarn guide is maintained even during the movement of the movable yarn guide.
[0015]In the case where the carriage is provided with a plurality of accompanying means along the longitudinal direction of the needle bed, when one of the accompanying means accompanies the yarn carrier, and the other of the accompanying means accompanies the movable yarn guide, an interval corresponding to the accompanying means is formed between the yarn carrier and the movable yarn guide. The interval roughly corresponds to the interval between the cam systems for operating the needle bed. Thus, while supplying the yarn from the yarn carrier and knitting, it is possible to move the movable yarn guide while maintaining a predetermined interval from the yarn carrier to the movable yarn guide.
[0016]Depending on the position of releasing the accompaniment of the movable yarn guide, at the time of the next accompaniment of the movable yarn guide, it may become neces

Problems solved by technology

For example, when the yarn carrier pushes the movable yarn guide, the distance between the yarn carrier and one of the movable yarn guides is too small, and the distance between the yarn carrier and the other of the movable yarn guides is too large.
Further, until the yarn carrier contacts the movable yarn guide, though the movable yarn guides are positioned at substantially suitable positions, these positions ar

Embodiment Construction

[0026]Hereinafter, embodiments in the most preferred form for carrying out the present invention will be described.

[0027]An embodiment and its modified embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 7. In the drawings, a reference numeral 2 denotes a yarn guide rail of a flat knitting machine. The yarn guide rail 2 supports a yarn carrier 4 and movable yarn guides 6 for feeding yarns 10, 11 to needles on needle beds such that the yarn carrier 4 and the movable yarn guides 6 are freely movable. Fixed yarn guides 9 are provided at rail ends 8.

[0028]The movable yarn guides 6 guide the yarns between the fixed yarn guides 9 and the yarn carrier 4. Preferably, each of the movable yarn guides 6 is at substantially the central position between the yarn carrier 4 and the fixed yarn guide 9. The position of the movable yarn guide 6 is not limited to exactly the central position between the yarn carrier 4 and the fixed yarn guide 9, and may be deviated from the central position between

Abstract

A carriage allows accompaniment of a movable yarn guide as well as a yarn carrier, and accompanies the movable yarn guide with the yarn carrier. If there is a course where the accompaniment of the movable yarn guide is not possible, the movable yarn guide is accompanied beforehand to a position in a preceding course where the accompaniment becomes possible.
