Abstract

A method of forming a coiled wire in an annular groove formed on an inner surface of a cylindrical member, comprising the steps of: holding one end portion of a wire discharged from a distal end of a feed nozzle; rotating the feed nozzle about one of a pair of connecting pins provided at one end of the cylindrical member so as to wrap the wire around the one connecting pin; retaining the wire by a hook pin in the vicinity of a point of intersection between the annular groove and an axial groove which extends from the one end of the cylindrical member so as to intersect with the annular groove; rotating the feed nozzle along the annular groove and pressing the wire against a bottom face of the annular groove by a roller at a position disposed downstream in a rotational direction of the feed nozzle so as to not only feed the wire to the annular groove but wind the wire in the annular groove through a predetermined number of turns; and wrapping the wire around the other connecting pin in a state where the wire is retained at the point of intersection by the roller.
