  • Circular knitting machine with system for offsetting the plate of the needles with respect to the cylinder of the needles
    Patent number: 12024803
    Abstract: A circular knitting machine for knitted or hosiery items includes a supporting structure; a needle-holding cylinder rotatable around an axis of rotation and supporting a plurality of cylinder needles that are movable for producing a knitted fabric; a dial assembly, arranged above the cylinder and comprising a needle-holding plate rotating around the axis of rotation and supporting a plurality of plate needles that are movable for producing a knitted fabric. The machine includes motion generation elements, in order to rotate the needle-holding cylinder around the axis of rotation, and motion transmission elements configured for forming a motion transmission chain capable of transmitting to the plate, synchronously with respect to the cylinder, the rotation generated by the motion generation elements.
