Abstract

METHODE POUR LA TERMINAISON D'UNE FIBRE OPTIQUE DE VERRE OU DE SILICE AU MOYEN D'UN EMBOUT D'INTERCONNEXION A RUBIS D'HORLOGERIE. LE RUBIS 21 EST PERCE D'UN TROU 22 DONT LE DIAMETRE EST INFERIEUR A CELUI DU COEUR DE LA FIBRE 23 SUR LAQUELLE L'EMBOUT 11 DOIT ETRE MONTE. L'EXTREMITE 25 DE LA FIBRE EST EFFILEE PAR FUSION THERMIQUE ET ETIRAGE, ET ELLE EST INTRODUITE DANS LE TROU DU RUBIS JUSQU'A CE QU'ELLE S'Y COINCE. L'ADHERENCE MECANIQUE DU RUBIS SUR LA FIBRE EST AINSI TRES BONNE ET INTERDIT TOUT DEPLACEMENT ULTERIEUR DE LA FIBRE. LES DIMENSIONS DE LA PARTIE EFFILEE 25 SONT TELLES QUE L'EXTREMITE DE LA FIBRE DEPASSE DU RUBIS. CETTE EXTREMITE EST PROTEGEE PAR UNE COUCHE DE RESINE EPOXYDE 26 QUI EST ENSUITE POLIE JUSQU'A L'OBTENTION D'UNE SURFACE LISSE DANS LE PLAN DE LA FACE AVANT DE LA VIROLE. APPLICATION AUX SYSTEMES DE TRANSMISSION PAR FIBRES OPTIQUES.METHOD FOR THE TERMINATION OF AN OPTICAL GLASS OR SILICA FIBER BY MEANS OF A CLOCK RUBY INTERCONNECTION TERMINAL. THE RUBY 21 IS BORED WITH A HOLE 22 WHOSE DIAMETER IS LESS THAN THE CORE OF THE FIBER 23 ON WHICH THE NOZZLE 11 MUST BE FITTED. THE END OF THE FIBER IS TAPERED BY THERMAL FUSION AND STRETCHING, AND IT IS INSERTED INTO THE RUBY HOLE UNTIL IT GETS THERE. THE MECHANICAL ADHESION OF THE RUBY ON THE FIBER IS SO GOOD AND PROHIBITS ANY FOLLOWING MOVEMENT OF THE FIBER. THE DIMENSIONS OF THE TAPERED PART 25 ARE SUCH AS THE END OF THE FIBER EXCEEDS THE RUBY. THIS END IS PROTECTED BY A LAYER OF EPOXIDE 26 RESIN WHICH IS THEN POLISHED UNTIL A SMOOTH SURFACE IS OBTAINED IN THE PLAN OF THE FRONT FACE OF THE IRON. APPLICATION TO OPTICAL FIBER TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS.
