Abstract
A packaged wound coil assembly includes a coil of wire, a payout tube, two flat panels on either side of the coil of wire, and a retainer to secure the flat panels relative to the coil assembly. The package assembly uses significantly less materials than prior packages and as assembled can assume less overall space than prior packages for similar wire coils.
Claims32
A packaged wound coil assembly, comprising:
- a coil of wire, the coil of wire having an outer diameter and a wound coil width extending between first side and a second side;
- a payout tube having a longitudinal axis extending into the wound coil;
- and
- a first panel and a second panel on the first and second sides of the coil, the first and second panels each having a periphery;
- and
- retention means for securing the first and second panels to the coil.

A packaged wound coil assembly, comprising:
- a coil of wire, the coil of wire having an outer diameter and a wound coil width extending between first side and a second side;
- a payout tube having a longitudinal axis extending into the wound coil;
- and
- a first panel and a second separate and discrete panels on the first and second sides of the coil, the first and second panels each having a periphery;
- and
- a retainer extending over the coil that secures the first and second panels to the coil of wire in a manner that permits the wire to be dispensed from the coil through the payout tube while the retainer continues to secure to the first and second panels relative to the coil.

A wound coil package assembly, comprising:
- a coil of wire, the coil of wire having an outer diameter and a wound coil width extending between a first side and a second side, the coil of wire defining windings;
- a payout tube having a longitudinal axis extending radially into the coil of wire between the first side and the second side;
- a first and second separate and discrete panels located on the first and second sides of the coil of wire, the first and second panels each having a periphery;
- and
- a film wrap extending over the coil of wire across the width of the coil of wire and over at least the periphery of the first and second panels to retain the film wrap and first and second panels relative to the coil of wire.
