Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009095360A1] A needle for transferring stitches therefrom to adjacent needles for knitting machines for hosiery or the like, comprising a shank (2), a head (3) that is hooked and 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), perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis of the shank (2), in order to open or close the head (3), at least one lamina (6a, 6b) being connected to the shank (2) and having, on opposite sides, below the latch (4), a flexible portion (8a,8b) that flexes in active and inactive positions to produce, in the active position, an expansion of the loop (9) of knitting fitted onto the shank (2), the head (3) of an adjacent needle (1b) being insertable in the space comprised between the portion 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 (9) of knitting with the adjacent needle (1b), the shank (2) having further between the latch (4) and the end of the portion of the lamina (6a,6b) towards the head (3), a region (10) for blending the shank (2) with the portion (8a,8b) of the lamina (6a,6b).
