WEAVING MACHINE FOR MANUFACTURING A PARTLY WOVEN AND PARTLY KNITTED TEXTILE FABRIC

摘要

A machine for making a partly woven and partly knitted fabric, having a row of lapping guides mounted on a crossbar for simultaneous angular movement about parallel axes and having radial arms provided with eyelets threaded with weft threads supplied from a weft supply beam and moving along part-circular paths within open warp sheds between an initial position projecting in warp direction, and one, or two opposite, lapping end positions for laying the weft threads into the opened hooks of knitting needles so that knitted stitch wales are formed of sectional weft thread loops between fabric portions woven of warp threads and the sectional weft thread loops.
