摘要:
A wire laying apparatus comprising a first carrier member, a second carrier member having one end connected to the first carrier member, a communication wire disposed within the second carrier member, and a compressor connected to and supplying a fluid under pressure to a second end of the second carrier member through which the fluid supplied by the compressor serves to move the communication wire from the second carrier member to the first carrier member. The wire laying apparatus may be restructured to serve as a wire collecting apparatus.

An optical fiber unit including a plurality of sub-units. Each sub-units includes a plurality of optical fibers. Further, the sub-units are twisted together, with a twist pitch in the range of from 30 to 600 mm. Each group of optical fibers are coated with a primary layer to form a sub-unit. The sub-units are then twisted together and coated by a secondary coating. A porous layer is applied onto the secondary layer, thus forming the optical fiber unit.

The invention relates to an apparatus for laying an optical fiber unit with a pressure fluid into a previously laid duct line. Specifically, the apparatus performs this operation by a method for causing pressure fluid to flow backward into the guide tube on the feed side of the optical fiber unit so as to generate a buoyant force, so that the load due to the frictional force in the section between the feed side and the driving means can be much reduced. Accordingly, the method according to the present invention is particularly useful for pressure-sending an optical fiber unit into a duct line having insertion resistance, for example, a vertical duct line, a duct line having fine curves, or the like.

In constructing an optical wiring network for connecting optical information processors on a plurality of floors of a building by pressure-feeding an optical fiber cable through a tube using a compressed gas provided by a pressure feeding apparatus, a cable installation route and a pressure of the compressed gas at the entrance end of the tube are first determined so that thrust exerted on the optical fiber cable by the compressed gas is greater, at every point of the route, than resistance including weight of the optical fiber cable in an ascending portion of the route and friction between the optical fiber cable and the tube. After installation of a tube in the building along the determined route, an optical fiber cable is fed through the installed tube with the pressure feeding apparatus, employing the above-determined pressure of the compressed gas at the entrance end.

An optical fiber unit suitable for installation by the force of a fluid flowing through a passage. The unit includes at least one optical fiber and at least one interstitial cord. The fibers and cords are of the same diameter. They are bundled and surrounded by a first sheath that is formed of a material having a high Young's modulus. An outer sheath, of foamed polyethelene surrounds the first sheath.

A tube sheet is formed by integrating a plurality of tubes into the form of a sheet. The tube sheet is constricted in junction portions of the respective tubes so that the tube sheet is deformed in these junction portions. At least one such tube sheet is disposed around a center member to form a tube-aggregated cable.

A method of measuring a length of a conduit comprises the steps of: supplying air into a conduit to insert a filamentary body into the conduit by flow of the air; detecting arrival of a forward end of the filamentary body at an outlet of the conduit; and measuring the length of the conduit from the length of the filamentary body inserted into the conduit. An apparatus for measuring a length of a conduit, comprises an air supply device for supplying air into the conduit; a filamentary body including a wire and a plurality of elastic large-diameter members attached to the wire; and a device for detecting that a forward end of the filamentary body arrives at an outlet end of the conduit, where the length of the conduit is measured from the length of the filamentary body inserted into the conduit.

Provided is an optical cable using multifiber optical units. Each of said multifiber optical units has a laminated body of a tape-type optical unit accommodated in a groove formed in a rod-like member. The tape-type optical unit is constituted by a plurality of optical fibers arranged in one row and coated collectively. The improvement is that the distance between the center of the rod-like member and a bottom portion of said groove is made to be equal to or larger than one half of the height of the laminated body to thereby reduce side pressure exerted on the tape type-optical units at the groove bottom portion thereof.
