An arm, a guide attached to the tip of the arm, which guides the linearly wound object that comes into contact with the previously wound linear object, and a guide that is attached to an intermediate portion of the arm and guides the linear object. An auxiliary guide having a single guide groove for fixing the pass line is provided, and when switching the position of a linear object passing through the guide groove, the guide is lifted up and guided and aligned only by the auxiliary guide. Lowering Characterized relates coiling device of the linear product having a modified cross section.

Here, as shown in FIG. 2, the guide is provided with at least a linear object wound first and a linear object to be wound next while being guided using the linear object as a guide. Two, preferably three or five guide grooves are arranged side by side. The guide grooves of the auxiliary guide are arranged in parallel along the axial direction of the flanged drum, and the linear object is abutted on the guide grooves while being in contact with the guide groove from the near side (see FIG. 2). (From right to left in FIG. 3). Accordingly, the linear object is wound one by one from the left side of the guide groove in FIG. 2, whereby the linear object wound later is brought into contact with the previously wound linear object while being in contact with the linear object. Wound around a flanged drum.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the guide is lifted upward by a detection sensor provided on the flange so that return switching can be performed.

[Action]

Next, the principle and operation of the device for winding a linear object having an irregular cross section according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 (A) to 4 (C).

This winding device includes a flanged drum A for winding linear objects a so as to cross each other in a twill shape, and a flange portion 1 of the flanged drum A.

A guide 5 having three guide grooves 4 arranged in parallel as described above, and a guide device B having an auxiliary guide 6 having one guide groove for fixing the pass line of the linear object a at an intermediate portion thereof. It becomes.

At the time of use, first, winding is started by the traverse motion from the position (a) of the flanged drum A (FIG. 4 (A)). At that time, the base end of the arm 3 is in the direction of the position (f), and the pass line moves in the direction (c) while being wound by two pitches or more. At the same time, the guide groove 4 of the guide 5 can be switched by moving the position of the arm 3 from the position (f) to the position (e).

When the position of the linear object a passing through the guide groove 4 is switched, the guide 5 is lifted up by an air cylinder, guided and aligned only by the auxiliary guide 6, and then lowered. The return switching operation at the time of winding is performed by receiving a signal from a detection sensor provided on a flange portion 1, 1 ′ at the tip of the arm 3, and detecting a pulse signal based on an angular position by a rotation sensor of the rotation shaft of the flanged drum A It is performed by the timer according to.

That is, as the operation procedure, approach of the linear object to the flange,
The operation is performed in the order of timer operation, return start, timer operation, induction switching to the auxiliary guide, movement of the arm (for two rotations of the flanged drum), lowering of the guide, and normal traverse winding.
