Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A cable drum for supplying energy to an electrically powered utility vehicle, with an axially running winding body which can be set in rotation in order to wind up and unwind an electrical cable, wherein the winding body is formed by a helically wound pipeline with an inlet for the supply of a cooling air stream. To increase the cooling efficiency, the pipeline has a plurality of air outlet openings formed along its wall.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A cable drum for supplying energy to an electrically powered utility vehicle, with an axially running winding body which can be set in rotation in order to wind up and unwind a cable, wherein the winding body is formed by a helically wound pipeline with an inlet for the supply of a cooling air stream, wherein the pipeline has a plurality of air outlet openings formed along its wall. 2 . The cable drum as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the air outlet openings are directed radially outward in the direction of a cable portion wound onto the winding body. 3 . The cable drum as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the air outlet openings are oriented alternately along the wall at different angles between 0 and 45 degrees relative to a radial plane spanned by the winding body. 4 . The cable drum as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the pipeline is made of metal or plastic. 5 . The cable drum as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a spacing of the individual windings of the pipeline is greater than the outer diameter of the cable. 6 . The cable drum as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the diameter of the pipeline is greater than the outer diameter of the cable.
