The outer end of the clutch lever D^ (Figs 138 and 139) is forkedto embrace the wheel C% each fork being provided with sliding pins 340 KNITTING 223 a^ and a^* (See Fig. 140), each pin having at or near one end a pro-jecting cross pin, entering inclined slots in the sliding bar a^^ which ismoved in one or the other direction, according as it is desired to changefrom circular to reciprocal knitting or vice Fig. 139. The bar a^^ has connected to it a lever pivoted at D^^ and havingconnected to it a link slotted at one end to embrace and slide on a screwstud carried by a change lever o}^ (Fig. 141) with three arms, andbeing pivoted on a stand attached to the bed. The change lever aP is acted upon its right-hand end when thechange from circular to reciprocal knitting is to be made, by a latchW which forms a part of the pattern Vv^heel system, and is carried bythe radius bar h^ (Fig. 141) mounted loosely on the hub h^ of thedisc 6^ fast on the shaft E (see also Fig. 142) having as its bearing theshort sleeve c^ the bar having an attached clamping dog 6*, bearingagainst the outer edge of the disc with sufficient friction to cause the 2U 224 KNITTING bar to rotate with it and strike the lever a at the prop
