DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0030] With reference to FIGS. 1 to 4, the present invention provides a knitting action parts structure. In FIGS. 1 to 4, the movement of knitting tools 4 with respect to the ground is understood to be horizontally back and forth from left to right in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, and vertically back and forth from top to bottom in FIG. 2. Each part is oriented with the front end near the loop-forming zone and the rear end away from it.

[0031] The present invention includes the following elements.

[0032] A first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 depicts a channel spaces part 10 comprising a needle walls assembly part 20 according to the present invention, along with a conventional cams assembly part 30, and a conventional knitting tools part 40.

[0033] The knitting tools 4 are designed as needles that include two guide butts segment 43, each corresponding to a cams guiding groove section 33 respectively, the knitting tools part 40 encompasses a maximum height H4 and a minimum height H40. in the conventional knitting tools part 40, a front height H41 is equal to the rear height H42, excluding the guide butts segment 43, and related portions of maximum height H4 and minimum height H40, the surface extending from the front top 41 to the rear top 42 remains parallel to the opposing knitting tools part baseline 401.

[0034] The cams assembly 3 comprising a slider 35 connecting cams 34 and a cams box 36, the cams assembly part front top 31 and the rear top 32 are formed by the two said cams 34, which respectively correspond to the needle walls assembly part front top 21 and the rear top 22. in the conventional cams assembly part 30, a front height H31 is equal to the rear height H32, and the surface extending from the front top 31 to the rear top 32 remains parallel to the opposing cams assembly part baseline 301.

[0035] The needle walls 23 for the needle walls assembly 2 incorporating the insert structure from twi639742B to ensure precise dimensions and a smoothly finished outer surface, thus eliminating the need for grinding and polishing procedures after assembly. In this needle walls assembly part 20, the front height H21 is not equal to the rear height H22, and the surface extending from the front top 21 to the rear top 22 deviates non-parallel to the opposing needle walls assembly part baseline 201. herein, the disclosed height difference is 0.08 mm, which is achieved either through the shape design of needle walls 23 embodied by a general manufacturing process such as punch press processing, or through the height differential design between a needle walls front datum plane 231 and the rear datum plane 232 embodied by a general manufacturing process such as lathe processing.

[0036] Under the aforementioned conditions during knitting action, when a knitting tools front edge 4A aligns with the needle walls assembly front edge 2A, the guide butts segment 43 is positioned relatively closer to the cams guiding groove section rear end 332. if the spaces part front height H11 equals a regular height H10 of 0.20 mm, then the rear height H12 measures 0.28 mm. This indicates that the space from a spaces part front end 11 to the rear end 12 gradually expands due to its non-parallel sides, where the height difference, measured as the spaces part rear height H12 minus the front height H11, amounts to 0.08 mm.

[0037] The present disclosure introduces a parts structure for knitting action, where the inclined surface of the needle walls assembly part 20 increases forward resistance along the contaminant pathway, making it more difficult for contaminants to approach the loop-forming zone. Additionally, it provides backward assistance along the contaminant pathway, utilizing the inertial friction during knitting action to guide contaminants towards lower surfaces, making it easier for them to stay away from the loop-forming zone. The pressure difference formed by the height variation at the two ends of the gradually expanded space ensures proper airflow guidance, thereby achieving effective heat dissipation.

[0038] A second embodiment shown in FIG. 2 depicts a channel spaces part 10 comprising a cams assembly part 30 according to the present invention, along with a conventional needle walls assembly part 20, and a conventional knitting tools part 40.

[0039] The knitting tools 4 are designed as needles that include four guide butts segment 43, each corresponding to a cams guiding groove section 33 respectively, the knitting tools part 40 encompasses a maximum height H4 and a minimum height H40. in the conventional knitting tools part 40, a front height H41 is equal to the rear height H42, excluding the guide butts segment 43, and related portions of maximum height H4 and minimum height H40, the surface extending from the front top 41 to the rear top 42 remains parallel to the opposing knitting tools part baseline 401.

[0040] The needle walls 23 for the needle walls assembly 2 incorporating a conventional insert structure that requires grinding procedures after assembly to achieve a uniform outer surface, and the needle walls assembly part front height H21 is equal to the rear height H22, and the surface extending from the front top 21 to the rear top 22 remains parallel to the opposing needle walls assembly part baseline 201.

[0041] The cams assembly 3, incorporating general manufacturing processes such as locking the cams 34 to the cams box 36, or inserting a slider 35 into a cams box slider slot 360 on one side and a cams slider slot 340 on the other side to lock the cams 34, thereby facilitates adjustment and movement of the cams assembly part 30 as a whole.

[0042] This embodiment comprises four cams 34 forming the cams assembly part 30 with a cams assembly part front top 31 and the rear top 32 corresponding to a needle walls assembly part front top 21 and the rear top 22, respectively. A cams assembly part front height H31 is not equal to the rear height H32, and the surface extending from the front top 31 to the rear top 32 is non-parallel to the opposing cams assembly part baseline 301. herein, the disclosed height difference is 0.10 mm, which is achieved by a stepped height difference design from the cams slider front height H351 to the rear height H352 corresponding to each cams 34 respectively, realized through a general manufacturing process such as powder metallurgy.

[0043] Under the aforementioned conditions during knitting action, when a knitting tools front edge 4A aligns with the needle walls assembly front edge 2A, the guide butts segment 43 is positioned relatively closer to the cams guiding groove section rear end 332. if the spaces part front height H11 equals a regular height H10 of 0.20 mm, then the rear height H12 measures 0.30 mm. This indicates that the space from a spaces part front end 11 to the rear end 12 gradually expands due to its non-parallel sides, where the height difference, measured as the spaces part rear height H12 minus the front height H11, amounts to 0.10 mm.

[0044] The present disclosure introduces a parts structure for knitting action, where the stepped height difference of the cams assembly part 30 reduces revise obstacles along the contaminant pathway to prevent contaminants from adhering to and accumulating on the lower cams 34 as they naturally move downward. Additionally, the pressure difference formed by the height variation at the two ends of the gradually expanded space ensures proper airflow guidance, thereby achieving effective heat dissipation.

[0045] A third embodiment shown in FIG. 3 depicts a channel spaces part 10 comprising a knitting tools part 40 according to the present invention, along with a conventional needle walls assembly part 20, and a conventional cams assembly part 30.

[0046] The knitting tools 4 are designed as sinkers that include one guide butts segment 43 which corresponding to a cams guiding groove section 33 respectively, the knitting tools part 40 encompasses a maximum height H4 and a minimum height H40. a knitting tools part front height H41 is not equal to the rear height H42, excluding the guide butts segment 43, and related portions of maximum height H4 and minimum height H40, the surface extending from the knitting tools part front top 41 to the rear top 42 deviates non-parallel to the opposing knitting tools part baseline 401, herein the disclosed height difference is 0.06 mm, which is achieved through the shape design of knitting tools 4 embodied by a general manufacturing process such as punch press processing.

[0047] The needle walls assembly 2 is machined on a lathe to form the needle walls 23 by cutting grooves. In the conventional needle walls assembly part 20, a front height H21 is equal to the rear height H22, and the surface extending from the front top 21 to the rear top 22 remains parallel to the opposing needle walls assembly part baseline 201.

[0048] The cams assembly 3 comprising a cam 34 directly secured onto a cams box 36, with the cams assembly part front top 31 and rear top 32 corresponding to the needle walls assembly part front top 21 and rear top 22, respectively. In the conventional cams assembly part 30, a front height H31 is equal to the rear height H32, and the surface extending from the front top 31 to the rear top 32 remains parallel to the opposing cams assembly part baseline 301.

[0049] Under the aforementioned conditions during knitting action, when a knitting tools front edge 4A aligns with the needle walls assembly front edge 2A, the guide butts segment 43 is positioned relatively closer to the cams guiding groove section rear end 332. If the spaces part front height H11 equals a regular height H10 of 0.20 mm, then the rear height H12 measures 0.26 mm. This indicates that the space from a spaces part front end 11 to the rear end 12 gradually expands due to its non-parallel sides, where the height difference, measured as the spaces part rear height H12 minus the front height H11, amounts to 0.06 mm.

[0050] The present disclosure introduces a parts structure for knitting action, where the inclined surface of the knitting tools part 40 increases forward resistance along the contaminant pathway, making it more difficult for contaminants to approach the loop-forming zone. Additionally, it provides backward assistance along the contaminant pathway, utilizing the inertial friction during knitting action to guide contaminants towards lower surfaces, making it easier for them to stay away from the loop-forming zone. The pressure difference formed by the height variation at the two ends of the gradually expanded space ensures proper airflow guidance, thereby achieving effective heat dissipation.

[0051] A fourth embodiment shown in FIG. 4 involves replacing the conventional structure of previous three embodiments with the knitting action parts structure according to the present invention, thereby forming various channel spaces part 10.

[0052] Under the aforementioned conditions during knitting action, when the knitting tools 4 move from the rear to the front, causing the knitting tools front edge 4A to move away from the needle walls assembly front edge 2A or another needle walls assembly front edge 2B, the guide butts segment 43 moves relatively closer to the cams guiding groove section front end 331, and the knitting tools part 40 also moves relatively. If the spaces part front height H11 equals a regular height H10 of 0.20 mm, then the rear height H12 varies from 0.26 mm to 0.38 mm in different embodiments, this indicates that the spaces from a spaces part front end 11 to the rear end 12 gradually expand due to their non-parallel sides, where the height difference, measured as the spaces part rear height H12 minus the front height H11, varies from 0.06 mm to 0.18 mm.

[0053] In contrast to the three previous embodiments, the present disclosure introduces a parts structure for knitting action, where the inclined surfaces of the needle walls assembly part 20 and the knitting tools part 40 optimize the forward resistance of contaminants toward the loop-forming zone and provide backward assistance for them away from there. The inertial friction during knitting action accelerates the removal of contaminants, achieving a self-cleaning effect. Additionally, when combined with the cams assembly part 30, it forms a larger expanding space with a greater pressure difference, further achieving more notable proper airflow guidance and more optimized effective heat dissipation.

[0054] The aforementioned figures are production diagrams commonly adopted within the industry and comprehensible to a person having ordinary skill in the art. Any modifications or alterations made in light of the present disclosure are considered to fall within the scope and intent of the present invention.
