Abstract

Appareil et procédé d'assemblage d'une extrémité de fibre optique ne nécessitant pas d'adhésif, appliquant une caractéristique de force sélectionnée sur un déplacement sélectionné. L'appareil comprend un élément de maintien (14), un élement d'entraînement (16), ainsi qu'un élément de positionnement (18) orientant le mouvement relatif des élements de maintien et d'entraînement. Lors du fonctionnement, l'élément de maintien reçoit une pluralité d'extrémités de fibres optiques assemblées (12) comprenant des éléments intérieur (31) et extérieur (32) ainsi qu'un système de compression (34). L'élément d'entraînement (16), guidé par l'élément de positionnement (18), fournit la force qui comprime les éléments de l'extrémité (12) l'un contre l'autre de manière télescopique. L'action télescopique exercée sur les éléments d'extrémité comprime le système de compression en contact mécanique avec la fibre optique. La force de pression a une valeur maximale limitée afin d'empêcher que la fibre optique ne soit soumise à une contrainte ou à un détérioration excessive.
