  • Publication number: 20230043750
    Abstract: Apparatus for winding at least one strip of material for the production of electrical energy storage devices, comprising: a rotatable winding core, configured to grip the strip and actuatable to carry it in rotation and thus form a winding; a feed unit to feed the strip of material; and a handling device configured to move the winding core at least between a winding station, at which the winding core is configured to receive the strip in feeding, grip it and wind it about the rotation axis, and a second station; wherein the handling device is configured to move the winding core from the winding station to the second station during the winding.

  • Patent number: 11081295
    Abstract: A winding apparatus is disclosed for winding material around a core of flat shape rotated around a rotation axis carried by a crank that is in turn carried by another crank, the three rotation axes of the core and of the two cranks being motorized independently by respective electric cams, with three distinct laws of motion programmed to cancel the variations in position and speed of the material entering the core. The winding apparatus is used for the production of electric energy storage devices.

  • Patent number: 10399806
    Abstract: It is described a winding apparatus for wrapping a material around a core of flat shape that rotates around a rotation axis rotating in its turn with a circular trajectory, controlling the laws of motion both of the core rotation around its axis and of the circular trajectory of its rotation axis, motor driven independently by means of electric cams, such as to cancel the variations of position and speed of the material at the entrance of the core The winding apparatus is used for producing electric energy accumulating devices.
