Abstract: A hub, on which compressing of the inner central bore is to be minimized during the winding up of an information medium in tape form under high winding pressure. According to one embodiment, this is achieved by an outer hub ring having a strong profile being provided alongside the outer winding area and by there also being elastically deformable intermediate elements between outer hub ring and inner hub ring. Such elements provide for a compression ratio of the compressed diameters of a the inner to the outer ring of less than 1:4. In the case of a further embodiment, variously shaped openings or notches, which are distributed evenly over the entire circumference, are provided on both sides of the hub between its outer circumference and inner circumference. In a still further embodiment the elastically deformable intermediate elements consist of webs running in radial and circumferential directions and residual portions between openings provided between the periphery of the outer ring and said webs.

The bottom and the top each have a circular central clearance through which a one-part or multi-part hollow-cylindrical hub support is inserted, onto which the wound media are fitted in a stackable manner. For assembly of the package from the folded-up state, the hub support has a locking snap-in device on at least one end face.

Abstract: A one-part container produced by injection molding for reeled magnetic tape, for example 1" video tapes, is described, the container comprising a bottom tray and a top tray, which are connected to each other by means of a folding line provided with bends, there being provided on a bevelled-off edge of the bottom tray and of the top tray holding grip parts, which are joined together to form a holding grip when the container is closed up. The container includes inside it a hub arresting means, in the bottom part and in the top part an annular projection for receiving or supporting the reel, the reel being mounted rotatably in the interior. Furthermore, the container includes lugs on the side walls for closing by snapping in of the container. The side walls are shaped such that, by virtue of elevations which engage in correspondingly shaped grooves in the other part of the container, the content is stored in a manner protected against dust and moisture.

Abstract: The multipack for pancakes of relatively large diameter comprises two end plates (1, 2) and an intermediate plate (4), anchored on which is a tube (3) on which the pancakes are arranged in series with cushioning disks placed in between.

Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure: A flangeless stackable hub, on which compressing of the inner central bore is to be prevented during the winding up of an information medium in tape form under high winding pressure. According to one embodiment, this is achieved by an outer hub ring having a double-T profile being provided alongside the outer winding area and by there also being elastically deformable annular intermediate elements between outer hub ring and inner hub ring. In the case of another embodiment, variously shaped openings or notches, which are distributed evenly over the entire circumference, are provided on both sides of the hub between outer circumference and inner circumference. In addition, the hub contains alongside its inner circumference on both sides axial deformations, in order to avoid a shifting or twisting when hubs are stacked one on top of the other (FIG. 2, FIG. 4).

Abstract: A novel packaging for several tape-form recording media (5) wound on reel cores (6) or spools provided with internal bores consists of two pallets (1, 2) and optionally hubs (3) which are raised in the axial center (10) and of which the diameter corresponds to the clear internal diameter of the bores of the reel cores (6). The packaging can be sealed by a shrink film (4) which can be pulled thereover. The cuboid pallets (1, 2) which can be joined together have groove-like notches (7) at their edges, the interior of the pallets reproduces the outer shape of the pancakes (5) and the weld seam (8) of the shrink film (4) is formed in one of the notches (7). The pallets (1, 2) also have window-like cutouts (9) on their four narrow sides. Pallets as well as the hub (3) passing through the axial center (10) of the pancakes are preferably composed of Styropore (FIG. 1).

Abstract: Described is a supporting hub for an internal slide, which accepts a spooled recording medium, where one side of the supporting hub lies against a ring-shaped supporting surface on the outside of the internal slide, where a reel hub carrying the recording medium or a flange spool can be pushed onto the other cylindrical side of the supporting hub and where the internal slide can be slid into a protective casing. The ring diameter of the supporting surface of the supporting hub lying against the inner side of the internal slide is here the same size or greater than the ring diameter of the supporting surface of the supporting hub lying against the outside of the internal slide. In a preferred embodiment, the supporting hub is in two parts which are detachable from the inside or the outside of the internal slide, and grasp one another.

Abstract: A packing for a plurality of recording tapes wound on flangeless core hubs having central bores (so called pancakes) are described. The packing comprises plastic pallets in the form of discs which protect the outer reels of tape and a fixing device which extends upwards in the axial center, the diameter of which fixing device corresponds to the clear internal diameter of the bores of the core hubs and of the plastic disc. The fixing device is a centering sleeve (1,13, 22) which can be inserted through the outer walls (2, 30 and through the central bores of the core hubs (9) and has a closure clement which co-operates with another closure element so that the two parts cna be locked and tightened together, and the centering sleeve optionally has additional elements (7, 8) which prevent rotation of the centering sleeve against the outer walls of the plastic discs during opening or closing of the packing (FIG. 1).
