Abstract

Se describe un dispositivo para limpiara las puntas de las fibras opticas las cuales se han instalado en un conectador, tal como una clavija o un receptáculo. El dispositivo incluye un cuerpo de herramienta que tiene medios de limpieza en el mismo, tal como una tira de cinta adhesiva y un retén para unir de manera liberable el conectador al cuerpo de la herramienta. La cinta adhesiva puede estar en forma de un rollo sobre un carrete de suministro. En la modalidad para una clavija, el cuerpo de la herramienta tiene una abertura formada apropiadamente para recibir la clavija y se proveen varillas de empuje con el cuerpo de la herramienta las cuales se ponen en contacto con las fibras y las impulsan hacia una posicion de limpieza. En la modalidad diseñada para un receptáculo, el receptáculo está modificado al tener un brazo de inclinacion el cual puede hacer mover a las fibras a la posicion de limpieza y el cuerpo de la herramienta incluye características para accionar el brazo de inclinacion a medida que el cuerpo de la herramienta es insertado al receptáculo. Se presentan diseños alternativos en los cuales los medios de limpieza no están localizados en el cuerpo de la herramienta, sino que se aplican manualmente a las fibras.
