Abstract

PCT No. PCT/SE93/00141 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 26, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 26, 1994 PCT Filed Mar. 1, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/17359 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 2, 1993.Connecting device for axial connection of the end portions of at least one optical fibre with another, which are fixed in at least one plug each provided in a coupling house, in order to provide an optical connection between the fibres via a lens connectable to each fibre end, each lens is constituted by a lens body, the front end surface of which is partially spherical and the opposite, rear end surface of which is arranged perpendicular against the longitudinal axis of the lens body. In the coupling house a ring shaped, partially spherical or conical seat is provided for the front end surface of the lens body, which seat is concentric with the longitudinal axis of the coupling house. The plug is insertable in a coaxial guide sleeve guided in the coupling house. The front end of the plug, which is perpendicular to its longitudinal axis, can be pressed to bearing against the rear end surface of the lens body so that the partial spherical end surface of the lens body front, is pressed to bearing against the seat achieving a centering of the lens, the plug and the coupling house relatively each other.
