Summary: | PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus for producing a knitted fabric with interspacing and a corresponding production method. SOLUTION: The apparatus for producing a knitted fabric with interspacing is embodied in the form of a circular knitting machine with knitting cylinders or with a knitting cylinder and a dial. A pile thread transfer device is arranged between two needle beds for the needle assemblies. The transfer device is provided with two groups of feed elements that can respectively be moved from an idle position to a thread tucking position. The feed elements of one group move toward the needle hooks of the first needle bed, and the feed elements of the other group move toward the needle hooks of the other needle bed. In this way, a spaced apart knitted fabric can be produced on circular knitting machines, wherein latch needles can be used and the needle stroke is limited to the standard measure of less than 14 mm. The knitted fabric with interspacing can have a thickness of clearly more than 14 mm, which means a thickness exceeding the needle stroke. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
