The application for the patent was published on August 21, 2026, under issue no. 34/2026.

Abstract: A clamping jaw assembly for sock turning as well as a socking turning device are provided, solving the technical problem that socks are difficult to be moved or clamped due to uneven force distribution on a sleeve by a clamping jaw, resulting in time-consuming and laborious sock turning and doffing. The clamping jaw assembly includes a mounting base, a jaw portion, a driving mechanism, and a shifting block. The mounting base is sleeved outside the sleeve, the jaw portion is pivotably connected to the mounting base by a shaft body, at least three jaw portions are disposed, and all jaw portions are spaced apart around an axis of the sleeve. The jaw portion includes a clamping end and a prying end, the shaft body is located between the clamping end and the prying end, and the shaft body, the clamping end and the prying end form a lever structure. The driving mechanism can push the corresponding prying end to move, so that the clamping end pivots about the shaft member toward an axial direction of the mounting base, and then all clamping ends are in cooperation to clamp and fix the sleeve. When the driving mechanism withdraws a thrust force, the jaw portion can pivot back to an original position. The clamping jaw assembly has a more stable structure, which is easy to move or clamp socks, is convenient to use, and can improve the working efficiency of sock turning.
