    摘要: A fiber optic connector includes a first connector body, an associated first end cap means, a second connector body and an associated second end cap means. A longitudinal groove is provided along a fiber engaging face of the first connector body. A plurality of transverse slots are spaced along the groove. Reference means are associated with the groove for indicating where a face of a first fiber to be coupled should be aligned. The first end cap means has a longitudinal protuberance along a face which engages a portion of the first connector body, the protuberance corresponding in size and shape to the groove. A plurality of transverse inverted fingers are spaced along the protuberance. The second connector body has a longitudinal protuberance along a fiber engaging face with a plurality of transverse inverted fingers spaced therealong. Reference means are associated with the second body protuberance for indicating where a face of a second fiber to be coupled should be aligned. The second end cap means has a raised longitudinal extension with a groove therein along a face for engaging a portion of the second connector body. A plurality of transverse slots are spaced along the second end cap means groove. Upon proper mating of the two connector bodies, body engaging means associated with each connector body engage the corresponding mated body.

    摘要: A device for connecting optical fibres comprises two identical units fitted to the respective ends to be joined. Each unit has an alinement structure in which the end portion of the fibre is held resiliently by a bend in the fibre leading to the clamp. The units are mated with their alinement structures alined and face to face with their respective fibre end portions meeting end to end substantially half way along the alinement structures.

    摘要: The present disclosure has an object to provide a multicore optical connector that can achieve size reduction and pitch reduction without performing highly accurate machining of V-grooves or the like. The present disclosure is a multicore optical connector including a holding member 11 having a flat bottom surface 14B, and provided with a groove that enables a plurality of optical fibers 91 to be arranged along the bottom surface 14B, the plurality of optical fibers 91 stored in a row on the bottom surface of the groove, and a lid 15 that is in contact with all the plurality of optical fibers 91 and is fixed to the plurality of optical fibers 91 and the holding member 11 in a state in which the plurality of optical fibers 91 are pressed against the bottom surface 14B of the groove to form a long hole 12 at the groove 14.

    摘要: Disclosed is an optical connector, the optical connector being one of a pair of optical connectors connected to face each other along a first direction. This optical connector comprises a ferrule that holds an optical fiber, the ferrule exposing an end surface of the optical fiber from a ferrule end surface closer to the other optical connector in the first direction, and a ferrule cap that covers the ferrule. The ferrule cap has a light transmission portion through which a light path extending from the end surface of the optical fiber is made to pass. An end of the ferrule cap except for the light transmission portion is positioned closer to the other optical connector with respect to the end surface of the optical fiber and the light transmission portion in the first direction.

    摘要: A fiber optic ferrule includes a body extending from a first end to a second opposite end, with the body including an axial passage extending between the first and the second ends. The axial passage includes a first diameter portion having a diameter of at least 125 microns, a second diameter portion having a diameter of at least 250 microns and less than a diameter of a buffer, and a smooth and continuous transition between the first and the second diameter portions. The second diameter portion is positioned between the first diameter portion and the second end. The axial passage further defines a tapered shape at the second end extending inward from the second end toward the second diameter portion. In certain embodiments, another smooth and continuous transition can be provided between the taper shape and the second diameter portion. In certain embodiments, the axial passage is smooth and continuous between the first and the second ends of the body. A hub holds the ferrule. A method of assembling a terminated fiber optic cable is also provided.
