ABSTRACT:
A turning device for tubular knitted articles, particularly for sewing or looping stations for the automated closing of tubular articles at an axial end thereof comprising a lower portion and an upper portion, which are arranged respectively below and above an intermediate region at which elements are or can be positioned for supporting the tubular article to be turned, which hangs at one of its axial ends and is arranged substantially vertically, a tubular body, which can be inserted from the bottom upwardly, with its upper axial end, through the axial end of the article that hangs from the supporting elements, so as to evert the article onto the outer lateral surface of the tubular body, extracting it progressively from the upper axial end of the tubular body. Auxiliary sliding elements are provided, which can move on command with respect to the tubular body, parallel to the axis of the tubular body, and can engage and disengage cyclically the article everted onto the outer lateral surface of the tubular body in order to produce its sliding toward the lower axial end of the tubular body.
