A filament winding device includes a fiber bundle retainer that temporarily retains fiber bundles. The fiber bundle retainer includes: a reel member including an outer peripheral portion having pins movable in the axial direction relative to the fiber bundles supplied through fiber bundle guides and rotatable about the axis of the liner, the reel member capable of winding the fiber bundles onto the outer peripheral portion; a first cutting unit configured to cut a part of each of the fiber bundles in the circumferential direction, the part being between a part of the fiber bundle wound on the outer peripheral portion and a part of the fiber bundle wound on the liner; and a second cutting unit different from the first cutting unit and configured to cut a part of each of the fiber bundles in the axial direction, the part being wound on the outer peripheral portion.

An apparatus for forming a composite shaft may comprise an axial fiber strip dispensing assembly and a hoop fiber strip dispensing assembly. The axial fiber strip dispensing assembly may include a plurality of fiber strip guides located circumferentially about a center axis. The plurality of fiber strip guides may be configured to dispense a plurality of circumferentially adjacent first fiber strips with the plurality of circumferentially adjacent first fiber strips extending in a generally axial direction. The hoop fiber strip dispensing assembly may be configured to dispense a second fiber strip circumferentially about the center axis.

A device for winding a reinforcing strip onto a repair length on either side of a portion to be repaired of a pipe, including: a carriage bearing a reel holder and a reel, means for rotating the carriage around the pipe and for translating same along the longitudinal axis of the pipe so that the strip is wound around the pipe in the form of a helix, means for reversing the direction of translation movement of the carriage so that, at each change of direction, the carriage moves in a direction opposite to the previous one and a layer of reinforcing strip is wound around the pipe, overlapping the previous layer. The means for translating the carriage include a conveying chain and the reversing means are actuated automatically without the intervention of an operator.

A machine configured to repair a pipeline extending along a longitudinal axis determined in a body of water, the machine comprising: a frame configured to be clamped to the pipeline; an applicator configured to apply material along an outer surface of the pipeline and comprising a support body shaped as an open ring and configured to be arranged about the pipeline; and an actuating assembly, which is supported by the frame, is arranged between the frame and the applicator, has a distal end configured to support the applicator in a cantilevered fashion and in a rotatable manner, and is configured to displace the applicator along the longitudinal axis and/or to rotate the applicator about the longitudinal axis.

A filament winding apparatus includes a rail extending in a first direction, a core material support device that supports a core material, and a winding device that winds a fiber bundle onto an outer peripheral surface of the core material, the winding device including: a guide unit having an opening through which the core material passes, and guiding the fiber bundle; and a main frame on which the guide unit is mounted; wherein the main frame is movable relative to the core material in the first direction, the main frame is movable in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, and the main frame is rotatable around a first rotational axis extending in a third direction orthogonal to each of the first direction and the second direction.

A process for winding a filament around a winding support. The winding support has a cylindrical shape with dome-shaped longitudinal ends and a roll axis, and is held by a holding device fixed to a base. The process includes the following, occurring in synchronization, feeding a filament, by means of at least one feeding device, towards the winding support, rotating the winding support with respect to the base around a pitch axis of the winding support, rotating unlimitedly the at least one feeding device around a yaw axis of the winding support with respect to the base, and/or rotating unlimitedly the winding support around the yaw axis of the winding support with respect to the base, and rotating unlimitedly the winding support with respect to the base around the roll axis of the winding support.
