Abstract

PURPOSE:To align many pieces of optical fibers so that they can be integrated in one body, by bringing the optical fiber and a thread to a mixed weave, as a warp and a weft. CONSTITUTION:An optical fiber 1 and a chemical fiber thread 2 are woven. As for the thread, sometimes a special thread which is melted by water and a chemical, etc., a natural thread and a fishing gut, etc., are used, and also, as for how to weave, it is free that it is performed by a satin and other weave, and also it is formed to a triple layer or more. In this way, the optical fiber can be fixed to a aligned state by the thread extending over the overall length, can be formed in large quantities and at a low cost, and can be easily handled.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an optical fiber assembly in which a large number of optical fibers are arranged in a t-m line and integrated. The optical fiber assembly was made by cutting the required number of optical fibers to the required length, arranging them in a tm array, and hardening only the ends of the array with resin or the like.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

In the conventional optical fibers mentioned above, parts other than both ends are not aligned. In addition, the process of aligning a large number of optical fibers involved aligning both ends of each fiber, or winding them around a cylindrical fiber to align them, which was time-consuming.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention solves the above-mentioned defects by interweaving Hikari 7 eyewear and yarn as warp and weft.

〔Example〕

The example shown in the figure is woven using Hikari 7 Eyeper (1) as the warp and chemical fiber yarn (2) as the weft.
The first embodiment shown in Figs. and 2 is a plain weave with a single layer, and the second embodiment shown in Fig. 3 is a double layer, as shown in Figs. 4 and 5. The third embodiment is woven in a twill pattern.

In addition, in the present invention, special threads, natural threads, threads, etc. that dissolve in water or chemical solutions may be used as threads, and dD
However, you are free to use satin weave, other fabrics, or Mie or higher.

[For production]

The present invention'1 is characterized in that optical fibers and threads are interwoven as warp and weft threads, so that the optical fibers are fixed in alignment over the entire length by the threads.

〔Effect of the invention〕

Since the present invention has the above-mentioned thread, it is extremely easy to cut to any length and to check the alignment order, and it is of course convenient and easy to use. Since it has a similar structure, it not only can be manufactured in large quantities at low cost, but also has remarkable advantages such as being easier to handle than the conventional OK.
