Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to a winding device (8) for an electric cable (4, 4a, 4b) including a cylindrical hub (62), perforated (622) at its surface and open (624) at at least one of its ends, the cable having at least one conductor (41, 42, 43, 44) and a sheath (45, 45a, 45b) with an outer surface having an irregular cross-section.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A winding device for an electric cable comprising a cylindrical hub, perforated at its surface and open at at least one of its ends, the cable having at least one conductor and a sheath with an outer surface having an irregular cross-section, wherein portions protruding from the outer surface of the sheath define air circulation spaces between turns of the cable when the latter is wound. 2. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a fan blowing air in a direction approximately coaxial to the hub. 3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the air circulation spaces are, along the entire length of the wound cable, axial and radial. 4. The device of claim 1 , wherein the sheath comprises, at regular intervals, rings protruding from the outer surface. 5. The device of claim 1 , wherein the sheath comprises a portion, protruding from its outer surface, defining a portion having non-contiguous turns coaxial to the cable. 6. The device of claim 1 , comprising at one of its ends a plug integrating at least one temperature sensor. 7. The device of claim 1 , comprising two ground connection conductors isolated from each other. 8. The device of claim 1 , further comprising an element for rotating the hub. 9. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a casing comprising at least one opening at its lower surface. 10. A system for charging at least one battery for a motor vehicle, comprising the device of claim 1 .
