ABSTRACT:
An automatic cable winder for use, for example, with a vacuum cleaner includes a device for latching the cable drum to prevent its rotation in a winding direction, and a braking device to ensure that the cable is wound smoothly and uniformly. The braking device comprises a brake housing, a disc journalled therein, brake blocks pivotally mounted on the disc for engagement with the brake housing, and a friction wheel coupled to the disc and drivable by the drum. The brake housing is rotatable about a pin disposed eccentrically relative to the disc. The brake housing is coupled to the latching mechanism whereby the friction wheel is driven by the drum when the latching mechanism is released.
