ABSTRACT:
An apparatus (16) is provided for winding inextensible flexible elongate material, such as cable (15), on a carcass (10) of a body while maintaining the tension on the elongate material (15) substantially uniform. A shuttle (20) carries at least one compensator arm assembly (30,130) resiliently supporting a housing (44,144) having a sheave (50,150) in line with an energy-dissipator (80,180) on the side of the sheave (50,150) closest to the carcass so that the elongate material (15) being fed from a spool (28) under tension and passing over the sheave (50,150) as the shuttle (20) is rotating around the torus-shaped body will apply the elongate material to the carcass (10) under substantially uniform tension as the arm assembly (30,130) stores up elongate material (15) during periods of low material demand and pays out elongate material during periods of high material demand.
