20080272220 | Yarn Wheel - Historically, when yarn is bought in the form of skeins, the skein would be unraveled and rewound, either mechanically or by hand, into a ball to prevent tangling. The Yarn Wheel alleviates this need by standing the skein on end such that the yarn may be pulled directly from the middle of the skein as the skein is designed to be used. The Yarn Wheel also eases yarn management when doing multi-color work by simply allowing the user to turn the deck and/or reposition skeins as needed. The Yarn Wheel keeps the several different colors of yarn off of the floor, and the height adjustment keeps the yarn always within easy reach whether the user prefers to work low to the floor, on the sofa or at a work table. | 11-06-2008 |
20090014572 | WELDING WIRE GUIDE RING - A wire guiding device includes a base and a guide portion for streamlining the flow of coiled wire from a storage container. Side walls may be included to bridge the distance between the device and the storage container to prevent wire from rising upward around the outside of the wire guiding device. As the amount of wire in the bin decreases, the wire guiding device will float downward maintaining constant downward pressure on the coil of wire. Wire in the storage container will therefore be drawn out in a smooth manner limiting or substantially preventing tangles. Protrusions may also be formed around the peripheral edge of the wire guiding device for preventing the wire from rising up and over the wire guiding device. | 01-15-2009 |
20090095834 | SPOOL FOR RETAINING WIRE - A spool or reel for retaining continuously wound material may include a central barrel and spaced apart flange members extending from the central barrel. The flange members may incorporate a retaining member comprising the curved channel terminating at the first and second holes fashioned in an inner face of the flange members. The flange members may also incorporate one or more holes or apertures for use with associated sensors where the holes or apertures include a rim to circumference for easy detection by the associated sensors. The flange members may further comprise label platforms that securely receive labels that are to be affixed to the spool or reel. | 04-16-2009 |
20120145816 | UNREELING APPARATUS - Apparatus ( | 06-14-2012 |
20120318901 | DEVICE AND A METHOD FOR UN-REELING OF WIRE FROM A COIL - Apparatus and methods for unreeling wire from a wire coil are disclosed including a wire stand around which the wire coil is arranged, a wire admission point to which the wire is fed from the wire coil and a bar flexibly mounted with respect to the wire stand so that the bar can be tilted with respect to the wire admission point so that loose wire drawn from the wire coil without having entered the wire admission point is prevented from becoming entangled by tilting of the bar. | 12-20-2012 |
20130112794 | Apparatus with Rotatable Arm For Unwinding Strands Of Material - An apparatus with a rotatable arm for unwinding a strand by taking it off of the side of a wound package | 05-09-2013 |
20130161431 | Compact Machine for Unwinding Multiple Strands of Material - The present disclosure relates to machines for unwinding strands of material from wound packages. As discussed in more detail below, machines for continuously unwinding multiple strands of material from wound packages according to the present disclosure may be arranged to be relatively more compact machines, wherein open areas are more efficiently used space, leading to a smaller and more compact footprint for the machines. | 06-27-2013 |
