  • Wound body or package
    Patent number: 4533046
    Abstract: The wound body or package comprises a band or tape or the like which is wound thereon in the form of parallel windings or layers. At the central region of the wound package there is arranged a continuous or through-passing axial opening which is bounded by an inner winding layer of the wound band or tape. This inner winding layer together with the neighboring winding layers form a support body for the wound package. In this way there can be precluded the need to use any extraneous support body formed of a separate material.
