Cloth draw-off roller for knitting machines

摘要

A cloth draw-off roller for flat knitting machines has individual roller elements rotatably mounted on a draw-off shaft and intermediate rings arranged with axial play relative thereto between the roller elements, which intermediate rings are rigidly secured to the draw- off shaft and are resiliently connected to respect roller elements. In order to ensure mutually independent operation of the roller elements, means are provided which establish a minimum axial spacing between mutually facing surfaces of axially sequential intermediate rings, which spacing is larger than the axial spacing of the two faces of the respective roller element coming into contact with these surfaces.
