Abstract
A winding device comprised of parallel spaced supporting bodies on which an elongated flexible material is helically wound in a single layer. The bodies are interconnected by a folding mechanism, whereby the bodies can be axially displaced to reduce the distance therebetween and thereby reduce the length of one axis of the wound material while retaining the length of the other axis to permit transportation thereof in appropriately sized containers.
