Abstract

Connecteur optique interchangeable comprenant deux éléments de connecteur l'un avec une source et l'autre avec une ou plusieurs fibres optiques ainsi que son procédé de réglage. L'un des éléments porte une surface de référence contre laquelle s'applique une surface correspondante de l'autre élément. L'écartement de la source par rapport à cette surface est réglable, de même que l'écartement de l'extrémité de la fibre optique. En outre, l'alignement entre la source et la fibre est réglable L'invention permet d'avoir des connecteurs pré-réglés à éléments interchangeables.Interchangeable optical connector comprising two connector elements one with a source and the other with one or more optical fibers as well as its adjustment method. One of the elements has a reference surface against which a corresponding surface of the other element is applied. The distance between the source and this surface is adjustable, as is the distance between the end of the optical fiber. In addition, the alignment between the source and the fiber is adjustable. The invention makes it possible to have pre-adjusted connectors with interchangeable elements.
