Abstract

A take-off comb, in particular for a flat-bed knitting machine or a loop-forming machine, comprising a number of take-off elements that are held in a bed (19), with the bed consisting exclusively of bent sheet metal parts. The take-off elements (10) may comprise closing elements (15) that can be shifted by a closer ledge (35). The closer ledge (35) and, optionally, a slider (45) assigned to the ledge, are preferably also bent sheet metal parts. Consequently, the thusly configured take-off comb (7) can be manufactured in a cost-effective and precise manner.
