Abstract: A reel (20) comprises a drum assembly (22) enclosed within a shell comprising upper and lower shell portions (24, 26). The drum assembly (22) is secured to the lower shell portion (26). The drum assembly (22) comprises a motor-driven rotating drum (36) secured between two discs (38, 40), and a frame subassembly (23). The drum (36) is adapted to receive linear material (150) spooled thereon. An outer surface of one of the discs has a spiral groove (88), with a first end (90) near the center of the disc and a second end (92) near an outer edge. The second end (92) is tapered to lesser depth. The frame subassembly (23) includes a track assembly (54) facing the disc with the spiral groove (88) and a translating plate (70) adapted to translate horizontally within the track assembly. As the drum and discs rotate, horizontal pins (76, 78) of the plate (70) alternatingly engage the spiral groove (88), causing the translating plate to translate linearly within the track assembly. The translating plate is connected to and causes the upper shell portion to reciprocatingly rotate about a vertical axis with respect to the lower shell portion and drum assembly. A guide aperture (128) is provided in the upper shell portion, through which linear material (150) is drawn onto the rotating drum (36). Advantageously, the aperture translates through an arc in front of the drum (36), so that the linear material (150) is distributed across the drum surface as it is wound.

Abstract translation: 卷轴（20）包括封装在包括上壳体部分和下壳体部分（24,26）的壳体内的滚筒组件（22）。 滚筒组件（22）固定到下壳体部分（26）。 滚筒组件（22）包括固定在两个盘（38,40）和框架子组件（23）之间的电机驱动的旋转滚筒（36）。 滚筒（36）适于容纳卷绕在其上的线材（150）。 其中一个盘的外表面具有螺旋形槽（88），第一端（90）靠近盘的中心，第二端（92）靠近外边缘。 第二端（92）逐渐变细到较小的深度。 框架子组件（23）包括面向盘的轨道组件（54），其具有螺旋槽（88）和适于在轨道组件内水平平移的平移板（70）。 当滚筒和盘旋转时，板（70）的水平销（76,78）交替地接合螺旋槽（88），导致平移板在轨道组件内线性平移。 平移板连接并使上壳体部分相对于下壳体部分和鼓组件围绕垂直轴线往复运动。 导向孔（128）设置在上壳体部分中，线性材料（150）通过该引导孔被拉到旋转鼓（36）上。 有利地，孔口在鼓（36）的前面平移通过弧形，使得直线材料（150）在卷绕时分布在鼓表面上。
