(under subclass 443) Subject matter wherein the winding mechanism is adapted to wind material to create distinct coil groups by either (a) progressively introducing the material
to each of a succession of cores or (b) successively winding distinct coils on different areas of a single core.
(1) Note. The succession of cores denotes the provision of a particular method of juxtaposing the material and respective cores without interrupting the overall operation of the winding mechanism (e.g., by indexing a turret carrying respective cores to a winding station or relocating a material supply to be captured and wound on a subsequent core).

440+, for sequentially winding articles by orbiting a material supply about an article core.
474.3+, for a device for helically winding alternate or successive take-ups.
531+, for sequentially winding convolute coils to form storage coils.
