Circular knitting machine oil, in particular for hose knitting, with continuous cycle lubrication.

The present Lubrication relates to a knitting machine, in particular for hose knitting, with continuous cycle lubrication, which is peculiar in that it comprises: a space (1) defined between the needle cylinder (2) and cylinder holder (3), and in communication with the delivery conduit (4) of a feed pump (5), delivery ports (7) defined on the needle cylinder (2) for connecting the space (1) to the outside, a collector pan (10) located in the proximity of the needle cylinder (2) base and supplying an oil collecting case (14) in communication with the feed conduit (21) of the cited pump (5). The delivery conduit (4) is in communication with the cited space (1) through the needle cylinder (2) bearing (6) and the oil collecting case (14) houses the gear train (15a, 15b, 15c) for transmitting the rotary motion to the needle cylinder (2). The delivery ports (7) are provided on the bottom of the needle cylinder (2) flutes (8) which accommodate the needles and jackes. Thus, thorough and continuous lubrication of the machine main members is achieved.
