(under subclass 434) Subject matter wherein the winding mechanism comprises an annular shuttle or spool having a
circumference on which loops of elongated material are wound in a manner to interconnect the loops of elongated material with the core in the manner of two links of a chain so that anchoring one end of the material relative to the core followed by rotation of the shuttle or spool withdraws material from the loops onto the core.
(1) Note. The shuttle or spool of this subclass may be flexible and formed as an endless chain, belt, hoop, or the like including a length of the material to be wound formed into a loop.
