摘要

The design of the yarn feed system for use in a single-or double-bed flat knitting machine, according to pattern requirement, has at least two adjacent yarn guides, which swing to bring the required yarn to the yarn feed and to swing it away again, mounted to a rigid holder which is located along the edge of the needle bed in front of the lock. The design gives a robust and precise construction without requiring yarn support loops or protective sheets over the yarn feed system.
