Abstract

A winding device for a wire body, the winding device includes a bobbin configured to wind the wire body, a winding machine configured to rotate the bobbin, and a guide roller configured to guide the wire body to the bobbin. The bobbin is configured to reciprocate relative to the guide roller along an axial direction of the bobbin. The winding device includes a processor configured to calculate a winding diameter of the bobbin, based on a relative moving speed of the bobbin with respect to the guide roller, the number of rotations of the bobbin, and a winding speed of the wire body.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A winding device for a wire body, the winding device comprising:
 a bobbin configured to wind the wire body;   a winding machine configured to rotate the bobbin; and   a guide roller configured to guide the wire body to the bobbin,   wherein the bobbin is configured to reciprocate relative to the guide roller along an axial direction of the bobbin, and   the winding device includes a processor configured to calculate a winding diameter of the bobbin, based on a relative moving speed of the bobbin with respect to the guide roller, the number of rotations of the bobbin, and a winding speed of the wire body.   
     
     
         2 . The winding device for a wire body according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the processor is configured to:
 acquire the number of rotations of the guide roller; and 
 calculate the winding speed of the wire body, based on the number of rotations of the guide roller. 
   
     
     
         3 . The winding device for a wire body according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a capstan disposed upstream of the guide roller in a traveling path of the wire body, the capstan being configured to control a traveling speed of the wire body,   wherein the processor is configured to use, as the winding speed of the wire body, the traveling speed of the wire body on the capstan.   
     
     
         4 . The winding device for a wire body according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the processor is configured to control a reversal position of a relative movement of the bobbin with respect to the guide roller, based on a newly calculated winding diameter and the winding diameter at an axial center of the bobbin.
