Does something spool through this device onto/off the central rod? Robert

 

No it doesn't Robert. But I attach a picture of the central thing. That supports something else to be held inside it so it is in the middle of the mystery object that envelops it but doesn't touch it.

If its like a multiple louvre type affair that rolls up, could it be a support for a filter element?

Wrap wadding/felt/etc around with the louvre/screen and it would retain its shape in service?

 

Alec.

 

Not really Alec

An internal component of an ignition coil?

 

I thought that spell in the colonial sunshine had stifled your ingenuity Richard but no there you are waiting in the wings with the correct answer. Well done!

Most descriptions of modern ignition coils focus on the laminated core around which the coils are wound. What seems to be forgotten are steel strips as it were that encircle the coils & work in conjunction with the central core.

 

The black plastic thing supports the central core.
