    摘要: Drawing methods and drawing furnaces for drawing an optical fiber with small non-circularity by simple drawing system are provided. An optical fiber preform is received into a muffle tube and heated by a primary heater placed to surround the muffle tube. The optical fiber preform is heated such that a starting position of a meniscus portion is higher in its position than the top of the primary heater, wherein the meniscus portion is created at the bottom portion of the optical fiber preform.

    摘要: An optical fiber drawing furnace capable of the prevention of entry of an ambient gas into an inner space thereof both effectively and economically, provided with a lower gas introduction portion through which inert gas is introduced into the inner space of the optical fiber drawing furnace, a chamber separated by a lower partition, and a bottom cover. The lower partition is arranged immediately below the lower gas introduction portion and has a first hole through which the chamber and the inner space are communicated. The bottom cover has a second hole through which the chamber and the atmosphere are communicated. An optical fiber is passed through the first and second holes. A controller detects a differential pressure between a pressure P1 in the inner space and a pressure P2 in the chamber and controls the suction flow by a pump for evacuating the gas in the chamber to maintain P1>P2. The sizes of the first and second holes are defined as (L1/D1)

    摘要: A main surface of a glass substrate for a magnetic disk is disk-shaped and has a ski jump on an outer peripheral end portion of the main surface opposing a magnetic head slider to be loaded. A rate of change of angles of tangents to a slope of the ski jump in a radial direction in a range between an inner circumferential side and a transition point on the slope is equal to or less than 10/W μrad/mm where W is a width of the magnetic head slider.

    摘要: An optical fiber preform (1) serving as a material of an optical fiber has a shoulder portion (12) thrusting beyond a middle portion (M) in a base end region (K) which is on the upper side when the optical fiber preform is suspended for a drawing process. The optical fiber preform (1) of this configuration can be easily produced by appropriately setting the heating condition, etc. for the sintering step in the production process. Thus, it is possible to omit the elongating step after the sintering step, thereby simplifying the production process. Further, in the prior-art technique, turbulence is generated in the gas flow in the furnace of the drawing apparatus toward the end of the drawing step, making it impossible to draw in a stable manner. In contrast, in this embodiment, due to the shoulder portion (12), there is a small gap between the inner wall surface of the furnace and the optical fiber preform; due to this small gap, the gas flow is regulated, and the drawing can be conducted in a stable manner even toward the end of the drawing step.
