Abstract (en)

An apparatus for knitting hosiery comprises a circular knitting machine (C), a sewing device (3), a transfer mechanism (4), and an upper mechanism (1) configured in the upper portion of a sewing machine (S); the lower mechanism (2) configured in the lower portion of the sewing machine (S), wherein the upper mechanism (1) and the lower mechanism (2) are spaced apart vertically, wherein the lower mechanism (2) moves back and forth to the circular knitting machine (C); when the transfer mechanism (4) transfers a semi-finished tubular knitted article to a sewing platform, an open end (211) of the lower mechanism (2) moves toward the circular knitting machine (C) in a horizontal direction at the same vertical level, so that the semi-finished tubular knitted article cannot be sucked smoothly is avoided.
