Abstract (en)

A station (10) for hooding with a flexible tubular covering (12) of an article arranged in a hooding zone includes means (17) of peripheral gripping of the covering. The means (17) are movable to seize an end edge of the covering fed to them and have a means (26) of traction and crimping of the wall of the covering starting from said end edge to receive the crimped part in an accumulation zone (30) within the gripping means. The gripping means are reversable to invert the covering which has been crimped thereon and are also movable to slip it onto the article in the hooding zone while gradually releasing the crimped part straight in the accumulation zone.
