Abstract (en)
An improved circular knitting machine aims to provide an improved structure and installation for cams. It includes a saddle plate (10) forming an angle to the horizontal surface with the cams mounting thereon in an inclined manner, and a sinker drum (50) surrounded by the saddle plate. The sinker drum has an inclined surface (52) formed in a continuous circular ring in the shape of a conical shallow tray so that the sinker drum has a concave surface. The sinker drum has sinker troughs (51) formed thereon for housing sinkers (40) in an inclined manner. The cam has one end fastened to the saddle plate (10) in an inclined manner and the other end forming a convex surface to be in contact with the concave surface. The cam (20) has a driving path formed on the bottom side thereof to allow the sinkers (40) to be movable therein. The sinker drum (50) may be rotated to drive the sinkers (40) to move smoothly in the cam (20). <IMAGE>
