Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009095359A1] A needle comprising a shank (2), a hooked head (3) arranged at a longitudinal or upper end of the shank (2), and a latch (4), pivoted to the shank (2) proximate to the head (3) for rotation in order to open or close the head, the needle (1) comprising at least one lamina (6a,6b) connected to the shank (2) and having on each of the two opposite sides of the shank (2), below the latch (4), a portion (8a,8b) elastically flexible from an inactive position to an active position; in the active position, this portion (8a,8b) of the lamina (6a,6b) produces an expansion of the loop of knitting (9) fitted onto the shank (2) at the elastically flexible portion (8a,8b) of the lamina (6a,6b), and the head (3) of an adjacent needle (1b) can be inserted in the space comprised between the portion (8a,8b) of the lamina (6a,6b), in the active position, and the corresponding side (7a,7b) of the shank (2), in order to pick up the loop of knitting by means of the adjacent needle (1b), the lamina (6a,6b) resting, at least with its end directed toward the head (3), against the corresponding side of the shank (2).
