Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015166190A1] The invention relates to a device comprising a wire element and a means for winding the latter, associated with said wire element, characterised in that the winding means is capable of switching from a first stable state to a second stable state, said change of state taking place: either naturally, such that the interaction energy between the wire element and the environment is greater than the interaction energy between the wire element and the winding means; or by changing a so-called environmental parameter, so as to cause the winding of the wire element in said means, upon switching from the first state to the second state, so as to cause the winding of the wire element in said means.
