ABSTRACT:
An improvement in a wire winding apparatus of the type which includes a means for supporting and winding a flanged spool, a wire guide arranged to traverse the wire back and forth lengthwise of the spool in use and two end sensors which are operative to automatically reverse the direction of the operation of the guide at the end of each traverse, which improvement comprises (1) means for automatically moving each end sensor away from the other end sensor by a first predetermined distance after every actuation of the first mentioned end sensor, (2) means for detecting an accumulation of the wire adjacent either end of the spool and (3) means for automatically moving the end of the sensor associated with the flange toward the other end sensor by a second predetermined distance which is greater than the aforesaid first distance when such an accumulation is detected.
