Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0203036A1] This invention concerns a mechanical device to be installed on textile machines, which consists of a supporting box frame (1), within which a properly guided mobile carriage (3) can slide, driven by an electric step motor (5) by means of a helicoidal coupling. It will eventually be hooked to the needle or punch holder bar of the textile machine for carrying out complex knitting processes.
