Do you have manual for your machine? If so, does it specifically instruct disengaging the needle action by turning the inner wheel? Some machines disengage the needle when you flip up or press the bobbin winder. If your machine instructions include turning the inner wheel, be sure you are turning it "counter clockwise" to loosen. It could be that it is frozen. Of course, your machine probably needs lubrication but I doubt that will help with your particular issue. Perhaps applying heat from a handheld hairdryer to the wheel will help loosen it, or you need someone with more strength.
However, you can pick up a standalone bobbin winder (SideWinder) avlb at JoAnn's or Amazon for ~$30 that is either electric or battery operated. It's a handy little gadget since it allows you to quickly wind multiple bobbins at a time, saves wear and tear on your machine, plus allows bobbins to be wound without having to unthread the sewing machine.
