ABSTRACT:
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
1) The Technical Field of this Invention
This invention relates to a wire-winding device used for winding a wire around a wire reel in such a manner that the wire turning parallelly to the reel in a line.
2) The Prior Arts
Generally, the prior wire-winding device comprises a stand
301
, a wire reel
302
carried to the stand with an axis, a guide reel
303
having a drum
303
a
formed in a beer barrel with side-flanges
303
b
,
303
b
and rotary supported by a stationary frame
304
, as shown in FIG.
7
. The reference number
305
is a pole-shaped supporting member which depresses the wire turns W
1
in the radial direction of the wire reel
302
.
In operation, a wire W is introduced to the turning position of the wire reel
302
via the guide reel
303
so as to be wound in a line in a condition that the wire turns are tightly attached side by side. However, the prior wire-winding device involves a problem that the turning point P of the wire W to the wire reel
302
is varied on the turns to be shifted toward the guide reel
303
according to the wire turns W
1
increased to the wire reel
302
in a superposed condition, so that the wire is inclined from a line A to a line B as shown in FIG.

.
As a result, the wire W induced by the guide reel
303
is unavoidably offset from the best turning condition, thereby to lose the aligned condition of the wire turns to the wire reel
302
.
3) SUMMARY OF THIS INVENTION
A wire-winding device according to this invention is characterized by comprising a stand, a wire reel carried to the stand with an axis, a carrier with an axis parallelly arranged to that of the wire reel, a guide reel having a drum formed in a beer barrel with side-flanges and rotary supported by the carrier, a means for movably supporting the carrier, and a means for biasing the carrier in such a manner that a wire to be wound is maintained so as to be turned to the wire reel at a predetermined turning point.
Accordingly, the wire turning point on the wire reel is maintained in constant by the carrier motion and the bias means, so that the wire induced to the wire reel is turned to the guide reel under the best condition in which the wire is turned side by side in a line on the superposed turns.
Furthermore, the wire-winding device of this invention includes a means for guiding the wire turns in a line at the turning point of wire to the wire reel. That is this guiding means comprises a guide member extended in parallel to the axis of the wire reel and a means for biasing the guide member to the radial direction of the wire reel so as to depress the wire turns.
Embodiments of this invention will be detailed in the reference of the description mentioned below with the following drawings.
