[0031] The special-shaped spring winding device provided in this embodiment first uses a lathe or other winding device to wind the spring, and reserves a certain length at the end of the spring wire to form a reserved spring wire, and then uses a fixing device to fix the spring in the circumferential and axial directions of the spring, then inserts the pin hole 11 on the rotating handle 1 into the pin shaft 2, and clamps the reserved spring wire between the winding head 12 and the pin shaft 2, and then rotates the rotating handle 1 to make the reserved spring wire fit with the outer side of the pin shaft 2 and form a hook.
