Winding machine for a musical string

Abstract

A winding machine (1) for a musical string (2) comprises two rotatable clamping devices (4, 5) for the string core (7), comprising a feed device (11) for a winding element (13), comprising a guide device (16) for the section-wise guidance of the string core (7), which together with the feed device (11) is movable parallel to the axis of rotation (6) of the clamping devices, wherein the feed device (11) and the guide device (16) are designed and interact such that a winding point (17) is formed in the guide device (16) at which the winding element (13) is wound around the string core (7), wherein the guide device (16) has a first contact part (21) with a first contact surface (18) and a second contact part (22) with a second contact surface (19), wherein a slit-shaped feed opening (31) for the winding element (13) exists between the two contact parts (21, 22).wherein – viewed along the axis of rotation of the clamping device (6) – the first angle (α) between the two contact parts (21, 22) is between 55° and 125°, the first angle (α) being adjustable.
