Abstract

An improved winding apparatus for winding wires and the like, which includes a flyer having a passage for passing the wire through it and driven for rotation around a winding form or winding frame for winding the wire onto the winding form, a roller movably mounted on the flyer for movement in approximately radial direction from a rotational axis of the flyer so as to depress the wire disposed approximately along a direction parallel to rotational axis of the flyer, by a centrifugal force during rotation of the flyer, and biasing members for urging the roller towards the rotational axis of the flyer against the centrifugal force, so that the tension for the wire may be increased during high speed rotation of the flyer.
