Crochet galloon machine

A crochet galloon machine for warp knitting, comprising:

• a base (2);
• a front grooved bar (4) installed on a supporting base (2);
• a plurality of needles (5) disposed consecutively in side by side relationship along the front grooved bar (4);
• a plurality of eye-pointed needles (8) disposed consecutively in side by side relationship, parallel to the front grooved bar (4) and in front of the needles (5), and each provided to engage a respective warp yarn;
• actuating means (6) for longitudinal movement of the needles (5) to give said needles (5) a reciprocating motion along a first direction (A) substantially parallel to the longitudinal extension thereof;
• actuating means for transverse movement of the eye-pointed needles (8) to give said eye-pointed needles (8) a reciprocating motion substantially parallel to the longitudinal extension of the front grooved bar (4);
• a plurality of threading tubes (10) disposed consecutively in side by side relationship, parallel to the front grooved bar (4) above the needles (5) and each provided to engage a respective weft yarn;
• actuating means for transverse movement of the threading tubes (10) to transmit a reciprocating motion to said threading tubes (10) which is parallel to the longitudinal extension of the front grooved bar (4), so that the threading tubes (10) perform a relative movement with respect to the needles (5) which extends on either side of the needles (5) themselves;
• characterised in that it further comprises actuating means (13) for movement of the front grooved bar (4) to give said front grooved bar (4) an alternated motion component along a second direction (B) substantially parallel to the first motion direction (A) of the needles (5) so as to accompany the movement of said needles (5) in their alternated longitudinal motion.
