MECHANISM FOR WINDING WIRE ON A SPOOL

摘要

A mechanism is disclosed for winding wire on a spool in tight coils without space between them. The mechanism comprises rotating devices and which when activated rotate the spool about its longitudinal axis. A wire guiding unit is arranged to be automatically movable in all directions to the side of the thus rotating spool. The unit comprises a pressure roller or equivalent which, with a predetermined force, presses that section of wire which during winding runs inwards at an angle against that section of wire which comprises the previous coil of wire. During winding the roller adjoins or presses itself against the last wound coil of wire and the mantle surface of the spool or the already wound underlying layer of wire.
