Abstract
A wire holding device for a coil winding machine having a wire chip removing mechanism. A wire holding support is mounted rotatably on a movable base and has wire holders each having fingers, which may be opened and closed for wire holding and releasing operations. The wire holder support is rotated for 180.degree. from the wire holding position with closed fingers to the releasing position, where the fingers are opened to drop any wire chips put therebetween. At the returning movement of the support to the wire holding position by a 1/2.degree. rotation, the support moves touching elastic soft wire chip removers to completely wipe out the wire chips.
