ABSTRACT:
A cord-wrapping device has a cord attached to a drum and includes a steeply inclined inlet portion and a second less inclined portion adjacent to said steeply inclined inlet. A cord feed guide directs the cord to begin wrapping onto the steeply inclined portion of the drum, and the slope of the steeply inclined inlet portion is sufficient that the cord slides downwardly along the slope of the steeply inclined portion toward the second inclined portion as the drum rotates to wind the cord onto the drum, without requiring an external pushing force to cause the cord to slide.
