Abstract
A device for transmitting signals or current between end points which can be moved relative to one another is specified between which at least two flat ribbon lines (-) extending in turns and accommodated in an essentially circular cassette are arranged which have at least one electrical conductor, t the end points, continuing lines can be connected to the flat ribbon lines (-)—The cassette consists of a rotor () which is rotatable about its axis, and a stationary stator (), which enclose between them an annular winding space () for accommodating the flat ribbon lines (-) One of the flat ribbon lines being arranged between one end point each of the rotor () each and one end point of the stator (), in such a manner that it rests against he rotor () with at least one first turn and, after passing through a U-shaped reversing point, against the stator () with at least one second turn, the direction of winding of which is opposite to that of the first turn. All flat ribbon lines (-) used in the device are combined together with a common annular conductor support to form a one-piece unit constructed in the form of a printed circuit, which is arranged in the winding space () of the cassette in the assembled position, and the conductors of the individual flat ribbon lines (-) are continued without interruption in the conductor support.
