Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2540890A2] The present invention prevents a yarn carrier from coming off a proper yarn feed position due to a large tensile force of a knitting yarn while a knitting machine operates. In a yarn guide apparatus in a circular knitting machine, a guide hole of a yarn guide is disposed facing a yarn feed port of a yarn carrier such that a distance from the guide hole to a shaft portion is substantially the same as a distance from the yarn feed port to the shaft portion, thereby providing at the yarn feed port an acting force equal to or greater than a force that acts so as to tilt the yarn carrier upward due to a knitting yarn. It is preferable that the yarn guide that surrounds a yarn carrier ring is attached together with a yarn carrier to a center portion of the shaft portion.
