Abstract

A rashel machine is described for the production of a knitted fabric, especially on a double bar or multi-bar rashel machine which includes a knitting needle bar and a guide bar assemblage having several guide bars therein. The guide bar assemblage is supported on a shaft that has a rotationaL axis that can be adjusted relative to the knitting needle bar essentially in the direction of its stroke movement. According to the invention, the rotational axis is adjustable between a first position and a second position by way of an adjustment mechanism, whereby in a first position a threading-in of a thread into the hole of the guide needle is easily possible even with guide bars lying on the inside without having to disconnect the guide bars lying on the outside of the guide bar assemblage. Furthermore, the rotational axis is adjustable from its second position by way of the adjustment mechanism into a knitting-technical predetermined position wherein the guide bar assemblage can finely be adjusted with respect to the knitting needle bar.
