Embodiment Construction

[0052] The turning device according to the invention will be described with reference to its preferred use in a joining station or a sewing station for performing a circular machine for knitwear or hosiery Closure of one axial end of a knitted tubular article such as for example a sock produced without affecting the inverting device according to the invention can more generally only be used to perform the inversion of the tubular article, independent of whether the tubular article is then seamed or not It is closed by restraining or coupling one of its axial ends.

[0053] With reference to the drawings, the turning device according to the invention, generally designated by the reference number 1 , comprises a main support structure 2 supporting a tubular body 3 arranged with its axis 4 substantially vertical.

[0054] The tubular body 3 has its upper axial end 3 a chamfered along a plane inclined relative to its axis 4 .

[0055] The turning device comprises first actuating ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a turning device for knitting tubular articles, in particular for turning tubular articles with pockets protruding from their lateral surfaces inside out. Said turning device comprises a main support structure (2) supporting a tubular body (3) arranged with its axis (4) substantially vertical. The tubular body (3) has its upper axial end (3a) chamfered along a plane inclined relative to its axis (4). The turning device comprises first actuating means (5) actuatable to effect translation of the tubular body (3) along its axis (4) relative to the main support structure (2). The tubular body (3) can be inserted with its upper axial end (3a) through the axial end of the tubular article (60) so that it is turned inside out. Said turning device comprises second actuating means (6, 6a) actuatable to rotate the tubular body (3) around its own axis (4), passing relative to the main support structure (2) Angle for preset swaths.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an inverting device for knitting tubular articles, in particular for inverting tubular articles having pockets protruding from their lateral surfaces inside out. Although the apparatus may be used more generally in any process requiring the inversion of tubular articles, the apparatus is specifically designed for inversion of tubular articles in sewing or joining stations for the purpose of inverting tubular articles at their axial ends Self-closing of tubular articles, e.g. for the toe of socks. Background technique [0002] Techniques are known for performing automatic closing of tubular articles, in particular socks, at the axial ends thereof at the end of the production of knitted tubular articles on circular machines for knitted goods or hosiery. [0003] Some of these techniques are based on picking up an item from a circular hosiery or knitting machine at the end of its production and transferring it to a bindin...
