Abstract: A winding tube is provided for a web-shaped semi-finished product or finished product. The tube comprises a cylindrical, elongated tube body having an inner wall. A data carrier that can be read in a contactless manner and that contains data about the web-shaped semi-finished product or finished product is secured to the tube body by means of a tubular holding element, positioned within the tube body. The data carrier is held in the interior of the tube body spaced from the inner wall.

Abstract: A device for measuring the internal pressure of an operationally built-in vacuum switch which comprises a vacuum switching tube having a switching chamber and switch contacts as well as an associated drive for the contacts. For the measurement of the pressure, a cold-cathode discharge (so-called Penning effect) having crossed electric and magnetic fields is used, wherein the electric field is applied, for instance, between at least one of the switch contacts and a metallic wall of the switching chamber or a condensation shield disposed in the chamber and permanent magnets are used for generating the magnetic field. The permanent magnets are realized in the form of rods and have pole pieces formed such that the pole pieces encircle the switching chamber. A magnetic field is formed which is applied directly in the longitudinal direction to a circumferential section of the cylindrical switching chamber.
