  • Patent number: 5649832
    Abstract: A device or transmitting signals between two terminals is indicated, where at least one of them is moveable with respect to the other. The terminals are connected by at least one line wound in turns, which is stored in an essentially circular cassette. The turns of the line are divided into an inner winding area and an outer winding area running in different directions, between which an approximately U-shaped reversing area is located. A one-piece ring-shaped guide (14) is located between the two winding areas and surrounds the reversing area of the turns. At least on the inside facing the inner winding area, the guide (14) has protrusions (15) that are distributed around the entire periphery and face radially out toward the center point (M), and which are offset with respect to each other in the peripheral direction.

  • Patent number: 5643002
    Abstract: A device for transmitting signals between two terminals is indicated, of which at least one is moveable with respect to the other. The terminals are connected by at least one line (10) which is wound in turns and stored in an essentially circular cassette (K) comprising a rotor (15) and a stator (16). The turns of the line (10) are subdivided into an inner winding area and an outer winding area with different winding directions, between which an approximately U-shaped reversing area is located. A one-piece ring-shaped guide (14) is positioned between the two winding areas, and encompasses the reversing area of the turns. At least one of the peripheral faces of the guide (14) has a rib-like collar (18) that extends radially around the entire circumference, with a bottom face that rests against a corresponding surface of the rotor (15) when the collar is in its operating position.
