Cyclopedia of textile work : a general reference library on cotton, woolen and worsted yarn manufacture, weaving, designing, chemistry and dyeing, finishing, knitting, and allied subjects . W I lever having a cam roller entering one of two grooves in the peripheryof the cam hub c^ fastened to shaft d, having loosely mounted uponit a worm gear having its sleeve inserted in a bearing made in the 173 158 KNIITING extension AS the gear being engaged and rotated by a worm d^,carried by a sleeve d*, fast on the continuously rotated driving shaftA^ (See also Fig. 93). The worm gear forms part of a clutch mechanism illustratedat Fig. 66 (Part II), so arranged that during the regular knitting,motion is not transmitted to the racking mechanism. This is accom-plished by means of a pattern chain mechanism, which by means ofthe high and low links in the pattern chain, controls the clutch that. Fig. 94. Sectional View of Head. lets the worm wheel start the shaft d and cam e^^ at such times as pre-determined to rack or shog the stitch, by deflecting the needles alittle back of their hooked ends, putting them a little to one side oftheir true radial positions, so that they may, for some stitches, passcertain of the cylinder needles at one side, and for other stitches, passthe same needles at the other side, and remain in either of their twoor changed conditions to knit any desired number of courses. Fig. 95 shows part of the dial needle bed, dial cam plate, the topof the cylinder needle cam grooved for the cylinder needles, and the 174 KNITTING 159 cylinder needle bed, with some of the dial needles, the parts beingin position for regular knitting. Needle 21, in the lower diagram ofFig. 95, if pushed forward, will enter the space between the grooves5 and 6 for the cylinder needles; but when the racking guide C ismoved to rack the needles, they will be moved, as in the upper dia
