ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is provided for winding a continuous, flat strip onto a winding reel to form successive, abutting convolutions along the reel in multiple, flat layers to form a tight coil of strip, which strip may typically be an alloy such as stainless steel. The apparatus includes a winding reel fixedly mounted and having means for imparting axial rotation to continuously wind said strip onto the reel, a guide roll for guiding the strip onto the reel with the guide roll having means for laterally moving it along the axial dimension of the winding reel to form the successive abutting convolutions of strip over the surface of the reel and two movable bridle wheels mounted on generally parallel axes for defining a path of travel for the strip around the bridle wheels and to the guide roll. The guide roll and the bridle wheels are mounted to a common movable frame which may be tilted to tilt the bridle wheels and simultaneously laterally move the guide roll while maintaining substantial and continuous longitudinal alignment between the strip leaving the bridle wheels and the guide roll so that the strip follows a straight path from the bridle wheels under the guide roll and onto the winding reel. Lateral motion is imparted to the strip without any permanent distortion, such as camber, introduced to the strip; however, there is no lateral motion of the strip relative to the guide roll and movable bridle wheels as the strip is wound about the winding reel.
