DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an optical fiber array support device having a function of finely adjusting the position of an optical fiber in order to accurately irradiate a light beam to any one of a plurality of optical fibers.

光ファイバーを使って光信号を伝送する場合には、送ら
れて来た光信号をもつ光ビームを正確に光ファイバーの
端面に入射させることが必要である。
When transmitting an optical signal using an optical fiber, it is necessary to make the optical beam containing the transmitted optical signal accurately enter the end face of the optical fiber.

ところで光ファイバーは極めて細いものであり、使用さ
れる光ビームも極めて細いので、光ファイバーの位置を
極めて正確に調整する必要がある。
However, since the optical fiber is extremely thin and the light beam used is also extremely thin, it is necessary to adjust the position of the optical fiber extremely accurately.

従来は簡易な手段で、しかも光ファイバーの位置を正確
に調整する装置がなかった。
Conventionally, there was no device that could easily and accurately adjust the position of the optical fiber.

本考案は構成が簡単で調整操作が容易であり、価格が低
置で精度の高い光ファイバーの配列支持装置を提供する
ことを目的とする。
The object of the present invention is to provide an optical fiber array support device that is simple in structure, easy to adjust, inexpensive, and highly accurate.

図は本考案の1実施例を示す。The figure shows one embodiment of the invention.

図中、1は螺子、2は任意の数の光ファイバーで、螺子

In the figure, 1 is a screw, and 2 is an arbitrary number of optical fibers, which are placed in the spiral grooves provided on the outer periphery of the screw 1, that is, the valleys 1a...1n of the threads of the screw 1. are placed respectively.

3は押えローラーで、光ファイバー2を押えてその位置

Reference numeral 3 denotes a presser roller that presses the optical fiber 2 and holds it in that position.

以上のような構成であるから、螺子1をドライバーまた

ビームの照射位置に移動することができる。
With the above configuration, when the screw 1 is rotated, for example, in the direction of arrow A using a screwdriver or a knob, the plurality of optical fibers 2 arranged at equal intervals move in the direction of arrow B, parallel to the screw 1. Therefore, the end faces 2a, 2b,
2C... can be moved to the irradiation position of the light beam arriving on its movement locus.

従って所望の光ファイバーが正確な照射位置に来た時に
螺子1の回転を止めればその光ファイバーの端面2a、
2b、2C・・・・・・・・・の所望のものが正確に照

Therefore, if the rotation of the screw 1 is stopped when the desired optical fiber reaches the correct irradiation position, the end face 2a of the optical fiber
Desired objects 2b, 2C, . . . are irradiated accurately.

また光信号の伝送路を切換える場合には、螺子を回転し

Furthermore, when switching the optical signal transmission path, it is only necessary to rotate the screw to irradiate the end face of the other fiber with the light beam, so the switching operation is easy.

さらに、光ファイバー2は螺子1とロール3に挾持する
だけであるから、光ファイバーの配列が容易であるとと

Furthermore, since the optical fibers 2 are simply clamped between the screws 1 and the rolls 3, it is easy to arrange the optical fibers, and it is extremely easy to attach them to various devices. The pitch can be arbitrarily selected by selecting the pitch of 1.

また光ファイバー2の移動を螺子を廻すことにより行な
うので移動の微調整が極めて容易である。
Further, since the optical fiber 2 is moved by turning a screw, fine adjustment of the movement is extremely easy.
