The main structure of the knitting machine
1. Looping structure the looping structure is a structure in which the yarn is bent to form a loop, and the loops are intertwined with each other to form a knitted fabric structure. The main parts are knitting needles, sinkers, cam devices and yarn guide devices, etc. These parts are collectively referred to as loop-forming parts. They are driven or fixed by the main shaft through their respective transmission structures, and cooperate with each other to form a circle.
2. Yarn feeding structure Yarn feeding structure is a structure in which the yarn on the bobbin or warp beam is sent to the looping machine at a certain tension and speed according to the requirements of the knitting system.
3. Design and color structure The design and color structure is called needle selection structure in weft knitting, and its function is to select knitting needles or sinkers and other parts according to the requirements of the pattern. The design and color structure is called the bar traverse structure in warp knitting.
4. Transmission structure It is a structure in which the main shaft is the main body, and various parts of the machine are moved through various transmission parts such as cams, eccentric connecting rods, worm gears and gears.
5. Control structure It is a structure that can make each structure work in coordination with each other according to the weaving requirements.
6. Pulling and winding structure It is a structure in which the fabric is drawn out from the weaving area and rolled into a roll with a certain tension and speed.
Auxiliary mechanism of knitting machine
1. Reduction device In order to adjust the machine, the knitting machine is equipped with a reduction device to make the machine run at a slow speed and facilitate maintenance and adjustment.
2. Self-stop device It includes self-stop devices such as machine failure, safety, yarn breakage, fabric defects, excessive or low tension, and limited package capacity.
3. Various instruments Depending on the model, the knitting machine is equipped with a machine tachometer, a let-off speedometer and a counter.
4. Expand the design and color variety mechanism It includes jacquard mechanism, yarn pressing rod, flower pressing plate, intermittent let-off and multi-speed let-off and other mechanisms.
