DEFINITION

Classification: 242/439

By orbiting material supply:

(under subclass 430) Subject matter comprising a winding mechanism having a source of material (e.g., a supply coil or material directing guide) adapted to rotate about the article to cause material to be wrapped on the article core.

128, for a strand unwinding device which may include an orbital guide.

224+, for an orbital guide for wrapping strand onto the spool of a fishing reel.

361+, for an orbital guide for wrapping material (e.g., wire) on a body to form loops.

386, for a reeling device with an orbital winding guide.

433.3, for an orbital guide for wrapping wire or the like onto an externally slotted core. 435, for an orbital guide for wrapping material on a ball.

438.1, for an orbital guide for wrapping prestressing material onto a vessel.

472.6, for a helical winding device having a material supply or guide that rotates about a take-up.
