Abstract

A device for winding, storing, tangle prevention, and protecting cords and/or cables is described. The device for winding a cord includes a frame having a cord access aperture for receiving the cord. The frame also includes an inner spool and a concentrically located spring, such as a flat coil spring, operatively connected to a catch mechanism for engaging the cord. The spring is adapted for winding the cord around the inner spool upon engaging the cord with the catch mechanism and releasing a spring control, such as a ratchet and pawl, that serves to secure tension in the spring. Methods associated with such a device are also described herein.
