Abstract

A warp knitting machine has a plurality of needles and a Jacquard guide bar having at least one pair of stopping surfaces. The machine also has a plurality of Jacquard-controlled guides each having a displaceable forward end and each having a rearward end attached to the Jacquard guide bar. The pair of stopping surfaces spaced and positioned to straddle a given one of the Jacquard-controlled guides. The machine also has at least one displacement member for reciprocating the given one of the Jacquard-controlled guides against the pair of stopping surfaces a distance of about one neddle space. The stopping surfaces straddle the given one of the Jacquard-controlled guide at a position between its forward end and its point of contact with the displacement member.
