Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0050678A1] A method for stretching and collecting a knit fabric produced by circular knitting machines comprising the phase of progressively cutting a flattened tubular piece along a longitudinal generatrix, spreading the piece according to diverging lines inclined downwards until reaching inferiorly a position laterally offset relative to the vertical central axis of the knitting machine and of collecting the stretched piece. Also provided is an apparatus for stretching and collecting a knit fabric in tubular piece comprising piece-presser rollers (10) for flattening the tubular piece coming from the circular machine, a rotating blade (18) positioned downstream from said piece-presser rollers (10), at least two spreading rollers (13) positioned according to diverging lines inclined downwards, at least a roller (14) for transmitting the stretched piece positioned in a first edge area (2a) of the frame of the apparatus, and a set (22) for collecting the stretched piece positioned in a second edge area of the support frame.
