Abstract
The invention relates to a circular knitting machine with knitting needles (4) and sinkers (25) for the production of plush fabrics. Each of a plurality of knitting systems has a means (71) for controlling the knitting needles (4) into a knock-over position and pattern devices arranged in front of this means (71). According to the invention, a first pattern device provided with a ground-thread guide (38) serves for selectively controlling the knitting needles (4) into a knitting or tucking position intended for the pick-up of ground thread (39) or a non-knitting position intended for the non-pick-up of ground thread (39). A second pattern device provided with a plush-thread guide (40) serves for selectively controlling the knitting needles (4) into a pick-up position intended for the pick-up of plush thread (41) or an intermediate position intended for the non-pick-up of plush thread (41). A third pattern device serves for selectively controlling the sinkers (25) at least into a first position intended for the formation of shorter plush-thread loops or a second position intended for the formation of longer plush-thread loops (FIG. 5).
