US Patent 6,269,282 (granted July 31, 2001, assigned to Siemens AG) describes an electronic control apparatus that sends textile pattern data to groups of mechanical actuation elements on a textile machine. It uses a serial data bus, sequentially connected serial-parallel converters (shift registers), and a central release signal. The main example is a circular knitting machine with piezoelectric actuators acting on needles, and the text also mentions warp knitting, meshing, weaving and Jacquard machines. The scan contains an online USPTO full-text printout, the patent's front page, five sheets of drawings, and the two-column printed patent text with claims, background and detailed description.
