Abstract

SE FORMA UN ACOPLADOR DE FIBRA OPTICA CON UN TUBO DE VIDRIO (10) QUE TIENE UNA ABERTURA LONGITUDINAL (12,80,83,92,93,95,98) QUE SE EXTIENDE A TRAVES DEL MISMO. LAS FIBRAS OPTICAS DE VIDRIO TIENEN, CADA UNA DE ELLAS (22,24;76,77,76'',77'';94;,96,97), UN NUCLEO, UN REVESTIMIENTO Y UNA ENVUELTA DISPUESTOS DENTRO DE LA ABERTURA LONGITUDINAL, EXTENDIENDOSE LAS FIBRAS MAS ALLA DE CADA EXTREMO DE LOS MISMOS. EL REVESTIMIENTO ES RETIRADO DE ESTA PARTE DE LAS FIBRAS EN LA REGION MEDIA DEL TUBO AUN QUE PERMANECE EN DICHA PARTE DE LAS FIBRAS QUE SE EXTIENDE DENTRO DE LOS EXTREMOS DE LAS ABERTURAS. EL REVESTIMIENTO PUEDE RETIRARSE ANTES DE INSERTAR LAS FIBRAS EN EL TUBO, O PUEDE RETIRARSE DE ESTA PARTE DE LAS FIBRAS, EN LA REGION MEDIA DEL TUBO, MEDIANTE OXIDACION, DESPOLIMERIZACION O SIMILARES. LA ABERTURA ESTA FORMADA POR UNA PLURALIDAD DE PAREDES APLASTADAS, CUYAS DIMENSIONES Y ORINTACIONES SON TALES QUE LA SECCION TRANSVERSAL DE LA ABERTURA EN LA REGION CENTRAL DEL TUBO ES SIMETRICA EN RELACION AL PLANO QUE PASA A TRAVES DEL EJE LONGITUDINAL DEL TUBO. EN CUALQUIER SECCION TRANSVERSAL DE LA ABERTURA ADYACENTE A LAS REGIONES REVESTIDAS DE LAS FIBRAS, CADA REVESTIMIENTO DE FIBRA ESTA EN CONTACTO CON DOS PAREDES DE LA ABERTURA. LAS FIBRAS SE MANTIENEN ESTIRADAS PARA LOGRAR UNA TENSION EN LAS MISMAS, Y LA REGION MEDIA (67) DEL TUBO ES CALENTADA, APLASTADA SOBRE LAS FIBRAS, Y SE ESTIRA PARA REDUCIR SU DIAMETRO EN UNA LONGITUD PREDETERMINADA (68).
