Special equipment (Utility Model Publication No. 56-47604) and waste liquid treatment are required.

The core occupancy rate can be increased by removing fine particles from both ends of a raw material rod made of a plurality of drawn strand fibers and heat-sealing both ends made of only the core and cladding layer. It is characterized by a big friend.
即ち、本発明に係るイメージガイドの製造方法は、先ず

。As the fine particles, various fine particles such as graphite, aluminum oxide, mental nitride, and titanium nitride can be used.
It has a melting point of 650°C or higher. In order to attach such fine particles to the bare fiber, there is a choreography method in which the fine particles are rubbed on the peripheral surface of the fine gold-plated fiber, an electro-N coating method in which the fiber or fine particles are charged with static electricity, and a fine fine gold-plated gold coat method is applied by applying an adhesive to the fiber circumferential surface. A binder attachment method may be used, such as applying a layer or coating containing fine particles to the fiber, or treating the surface of the fine particles with an adhesive and attaching it to the fiber.Other methods include vacuum evaporation, sputtering, Ion blating method is considered, and in the case of vacuum evaporation method, the temperature is 1800℃~
It has a melting point in the range of 2500 °C! Particles are required.
次に、微粒子を付着させた複数の索線ファイバを集束装
置により最密Vc廠列させて、一端を絞め具にて固定す
る。Next, a plurality of cable fibers having fine particles attached thereto are arranged in a close-packed Vc array using a focusing device, and one end is fixed with a constrictor.
この複数の素線ファイバを束ねる工程においては、各素
線ファイバに滑剤機能を有する微粒子が付着されている

できる。In this step of bundling a plurality of bare fibers, fine particles having a lubricant function are attached to each bare fiber, so it is possible to effectively prevent the peripheral surface of each bare fiber from being damaged.
このようにして複数の素線ファイバを束ねて素材ロッド

しつつ引張りローラにて引くことにより加熱延伸する。In this way, a plurality of bare fibers are bundled to form a raw material rod, and then the raw material rod is heated by an annular heater and pulled by a tension roller to be heated and stretched.

止できる。In this heating and stretching step, since the fine particles with a high melting point that also function as a separating agent are attached to the valley strand fibers, it is possible to prevent the strand fibers from being fused together.

7F11 Heat fusion by heating. In this thermal fusion step, since fine particles are removed, only the core and cladding layer that constitute each elemental fiber are present at both ends.

有する上に両端のコア占有率が従来と比べて大きい。After both ends of the stretched material rod are heat-sealed as described above, an end fixing layer made of synthetic resin is coated with a gold film on both ends, and an image guide is obtained by polishing both ends. As mentioned above, each bare fiber is separated from each other, and the fused parts at both ends are formed only from the core and cladding of the bare fiber, so this image guide is flexible and has both ends. Core occupancy rate is larger than before.

りで特別な装置が全く不要でおる。In addition, in the manufacturing method of the present invention, since fine particles with a high melting point that have the functions of both a lubricant and a separating agent are used, the step of preventing the cable fibers from being fused, which was conventionally required, becomes unnecessary. In addition, in the inventive manufacturing method, it is necessary to attach fine particles to the bare fiber and remove only the fine particles at both ends of the cable fiber even after drawing, so there is no need for any large-scale special equipment.
(発明の実施例) 以下、不発明の実施例全図面全参照して説明する。(Example of the invention) Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to all the drawings.

At the same time, this Multi 7 Eyepa 4 tray was passed as it was through a die 5 containing an emulsion containing graphite powder and an electric furnace 6, and wound up on a drum 7. The multi-fiber 4 thus produced had a hexagonal cross section and a major axis of 1.02-.

Note that the process of creating the multi-fiber 4 and adhering graphite powder is performed in an inert atmosphere such as argon, thereby effectively preventing the reaction between graphite and oxygen, and adhering graphite to the circumferential surface of the multi-fiber 4. I was able to do that. In this way, after graphite powder was attached to the multi-fibers 4 as bare fibers, the multi-fibers 4Th241 were not prepared and were closely aligned with a circular cross section using a focusing device to create a bare wire rod.

The process of providing a pressure stop layer can be omitted, and since fine particles are removed from both ends of the material rod made of stretched cable fiber and both ends made of only the core and cladding are heat-sealed, the core occupancy rate can be reduced. Therefore, an image guide having flexibility and a large core occupation rate can be obtained with fewer manufacturing steps.

Furthermore, when graphite is used as the fine particles, the graphite can be removed and fused at both ends of the material rod at the same time, which simplifies the work.
