摘要:
A dehydration-sintering furnace for dehydrating and/or sintering an optical fiber preform for use in production of an optical fiber includes a muffle for accommodating the optical fiber preform, a heater for heating the muffle, and a pressure fluctuation absorbing apparatus connected to the muffle. Since the pressure fluctuation absorbing apparatus is thermally insulated from a room temperature atmosphere or heated, vapor produced in a dehydration-sintering process is prevented from condensing (liquefying) in a pressure fluctuation absorbing apparatus, thereby preventing reduced dehydration effectiveness in the muffle and reduced quality of the optical fiber preform.

摘要:
A method of producing optical fiber preform includes: forming a deposited layer by depositing glass particles on a periphery of a target element in a deposition mode while burning a mixed gas containing a glass source material gas, a flaming gas, and a supporting gas by use of a flaming burner; maintaining a state where the supporting gas flows at a flow velocity greater than or equal to a flow velocity at which a nozzle end of the supporting gas discharge nozzles does not glow while maintaining a pilot burner by allowing the flaming gas to flow to the seal gas discharge nozzle after a seal gas is replaced with the flaming gas in a case where a mode is changed from the deposition mode to a non-deposition mode; and replacing the flaming gas flowing to the flaming gas port with a purge gas.
