I only use one Revolute Joint with a Rigid Group of three pins that rotates together in a ring. 
How can I change the direction of the joint?

There is no command or setting to reverse a Revolve Joint, you just have to trick it into reversing.  You will find the process outlined in this YouTube video.  Your reverse rotating model is attached.  By the way, your posted model was rotation in a counter-clockwise rotation.
