The invention relates to a textile machine tool part (11) that is used in textile processing in a textile machine and to a method for producing same. The textile machine tool part (11) has a tool core (16) made of a core material and is coated, at least in part, with a wear-resistant coating. The wear-resistant coating (17) is applied to a core surface (18) that has a first microstructure (19). The first microstructure (19) is preferably created using electrochemical etching in the core surface (18). The wear-resistant coating (17) applied thereto is preferably applied directly to at least a section of the core surface (18) having the first microstructure (19) using electrochemical deposition and has a layer thickness of a maximum of 20 μm.

A loop-forming process includes moving a plurality of system components (11, 12) relatively to a needle bed (14). The system components (11, 12) contact threads (23) for forming loops. At least one spacer (10) is placed between at least two adjacent system components (11, 12) of the plurality of system components (11, 12) and defines the distance (21) between the two adjacent system components (11, 12), the spacer (10) being in mechanical contact to the two adjacent system components (11,12). The spacer (10) is placed away from and does not contact threads (23) and is moved with respect to the needle bed (14). The spacer (10) is also moved with respect to both of the two adjacent system components (11, 12) at least for a period of time during the loop forming process. An equivalent device is also disclosed and claimed.

A circular knitting machine knitting structure for knitting a double-sided cloth comprising a cut-pile fabric is provided, disposed corresponding to a gap of a circular knitting machine and including a first knitting group provided with a plurality of knitting bearded needles, and a second knitting group including a plurality of intarsia sinkers, two intarsia bearded needles disposed between any two intarsia sinkers, and a shearing bearded needle disposed between the two intarsia bearded needles. The shearing bearded needle includes a first yarn hooking section facing the gap and comprises a second needle latch, a yarn cutting section extending from the first yarn hooking section to form a cutter, and a first control section extending from the yarn cutting section to form at least one first butt. Through the foregoing knitting structure, the double-sided cloth with the cut-pile fabric on one side is knitted by the circular knitting machine.

A flat knitting machine structure with an adjustable gap between two knock-over bits includes two needle beds and two cam systems. Each needle bed comprises a plurality of needles and a plurality of knock-over bits. Each needle comprises a butt. Each of the knock-over bits comprises a control butt. The two needle beds are disposed at interval so that the knock-over bits face each other to define a gap. The distance of the gap is equal to a space between two knock-over bits facing each other. Each cam system comprises a needle cam to provide the plurality of butts being placed and guide each needle to make a knitting stroke towards the gap, and a knock-over bit cam provides the control butts being placed. The knock-over bit cam is controlled to define a displacement stroke for driving the plurality of knock-over bits to change the size of the gap.

A flat knitting machine mangling device with position varying with gap size is provided. The flat knitting machine mangling device includes a driving element, a fixing base disposed on a cam supporting base, a sliding base disposed to correspond to the fixing base, a limiting block combined with the fixing base and limiting the sliding base to only slide relative to the cam supporting base, a mangling sheet supporting arm and a mangling sheet disposed on the mangling sheet supporting arm. The driving element is started when a knock-over bit cam makes a displacement stroke. The sliding base is provided with a guide block and makes a regulation stroke relative to the cam supporting base when the driving element is started. The guide block drives the mangling sheet to move to change a mangling position when the sliding base makes the regulation stroke.

A method for knitting a three-dimensional fabric with variable thickness through a flat knitting machine includes the following steps: moving two cam groups and driving a plurality of knitting needles to knit a first piece of knitting by a starting cam system; moving the two cam groups and driving the plurality of knitting needles to knit a second piece of knitting by a middle cam system; and moving the two cam groups and driving the plurality of knitting needles to knit a supporting yarn by two tail cam systems respectively. The tail cam systems control each of a plurality of knock-over bit cams to move according to a gap size corresponding to a knitting length of the supporting yarn, so as to promptly change a thickness of the three-dimensional fabric along the length change of the supporting yarn.
