Abstract (en)

[origin: US4712391A] A flat knitting machine has a needle selection arrangement movable along its needle bed, knitting needles arranged in needle channels of the needle bed and selector drivers or a tandem arrangement of working drivers and selector drivers adjoining the knitting needles in the needle channels, which cooperate with the needle selection arrangement. In order to achieve drivers of uniform weight with the same acceleration effect for differing gauges of the flat knitting machine, distance plates are fixed and inserted on at least one side of the drivers in the needle channels extending substantially along the length of the working drivers and/or selector drivers, the width of the distance plates being equal to the difference between the width of the needle channels and the width of the working drivers and/or selector drivers.
