A storage device for data transmission lines, which serve for data transmission between a moving object and a base station, has a spool unit (2) on which a data transmission line (1) is wound in the form of a package of several layers (21) of windings. The windings in each layer are introduced at a maximum tensile stress or force, which is dependent on the modulus of elasticity of thedata transmission line (1). In this way, a creep or flow of the material of data transmission line (1), which is due to the pressure that is produced on the individual layers (21), is reduced or avoided, and a stable ordering of the windings is assured over a long period of time. The pressure of a winding on the layer (21) lying thereunder is less than 0.6 N/mm2, at least in the lower region of the windings. The maximum tensile stress is calculated from the diameters of data transmission line (1) and spool unit (2), the modulus of elasticity of data transmission line (1) and the total number N of layers (21) of the package.
A storage device for payout of a data transmission line comprising a spool and a data transmission line wound in a plurality of layers on said spool from an inner region to an outer region to form a package of said layers, said data transmission line being wound in said layers at a defined tensile stress, said defined tensile stress at which said layers are wound being less than a maximum stress Fmax which is a function of the diameter of the transmission line, the diameter of said spool, the modulus of elasticity of said transmission line and the number of layers of said layers in said package in order to prevent creep between adjacent layers and provide stability of said layers, wherein each winding layer is wound at said defined tensile stress to exert a pressure on the winding layer thereunder of less than 0.6 N/mm2 at least in the inner region of the package.
A storage device for payout of a data transmission line comprising a spool and a data transmission line wound in a plurality of layers on said spool from an inner region to an outer region to form a package of said layers, said data transmission line being wound in said layers at a defined tensile stress, said defined tensile stress at which said layers are wound being less than a maximum stress Fmax which is a function of the diameter of the transmission line, the diameter of said spool, the modulus of elasticity of said transmission line and the number of layers of said layers in said package in order to prevent creep between adjacent layers and provide stability of said layers, wherein the maximum tensile stress Fmax is defined by the expression F max ≤ 1 Newton N n + 0.3 Newton mm 2 d ( D s - N · d ) N [ 1 - n N ] + E · d E 3 3 D s
