Abstract

ELEMENT DE CONTACT POUR LE COUPLAGE D'UNE SEULE FIBRE OPTIQUE AVEC UNE AUTRE FIBRE TERMINEE PAR UN ELEMENT ANALOGUE. CHAQUE CONTACT 42, 44 EST MONTE DANS L'UNE DES MOITIES COMPLEMENTAIRES 10, 11 D'UN CONNECTEUR DEMONTABLE CLASSIQUE, UN RESSORT 43, 45 POUSSANT CHAQUE CONTACT CONTRE L'AUTRE QUAND LES DEUX MOITIES SONT ASSEMBLEES. A L'AVANT DU CONTACT, TROIS SPHERES 17, 18 RETENUES PAR UNE BAGUE 19, 20 DEFINISSENT UN ESPACE CENTRAL TRICUSPIDE DANS LEQUEL EST SITUEE L'EXTREMITE DE LA FIBRE. DES RESSORTS 31, 32 ASSURENT UN LEGER RETRAIT DES BAGUES POUR QUE LES SPHERES D'UN CONTACT S'EMBOITENT ENTRE LES SPHERES DE L'AUTRE, EN ASSURANT UN ALIGNEMENT PRECIS DES DEUX FIBRES. APPLICATION AUX SYSTEMES DE TRANSMISSION OPTIQUE PAR FIBRE UNIQUE.
