Abstract

The yarn feeder slide proposed for intarsia knitting on a flat knitting machine and provided with a braking device has brake shoes (22,23) projecting sideways on pivoted levers (16,31) and which extend into a special longitudinal slot of the associated yarn feeder rail and can be jammed therein. Two control regions (19,38) for the braking device or for a moveable yarn feeder arm are provided and are spaced from one another in the direction of displacement of the yarn feeder slide (10) so that the yarn feeder driving member located on the cam carriage of the flat knitting machine can be selectively lowered into both control regions (19,38) of the yarn feeder slide.
