DEVICE FOR COUPLING TWO OPTICAL FIBERS, INTENTED TO BE USED IN CONNECTORS
A device for aligning a first and a second optical fibers each comprising an end mounted into a ferrule (1, 2), comprising: - an alignment tube (5) in which the two ferrules are mounted in an interference fit, the two ferrules being opposite and spaced with each other; - an optical component (7, 7...

Zusammenfassung: | A device for aligning a first and a second optical fibers each comprising an end mounted into a ferrule (1, 2), comprising:
- an alignment tube (5) in which the two ferrules are mounted in an interference fit, the two ferrules being opposite and spaced with each other;
- an optical component (7, 7', 7") that provides for both a non-physical contact and a low optical coupling loss between the first and second fibers, said component being positioned by a spacer (6) substantially at the midpoint between the first fiber (3) and the second fiber (4), such that the image of the end face of the first fiber (3) is coincident with the end face of the second fiber (4). |
