Abstract

UN METODO PARA SUMINISTRAR A UN EDIFICIO U OTRA INSTALACION CON UN ELEMENTO DE FIBRA OPTICA, POR EJEMPLO UN CABLE DE FIBRAS (14) O UNA CINTA, QUE ESTA TERMINADO POR UN CONECTOR (1) COMPRENDE: A) INTRODUCIR UN EXTREMO DELANTERO DE UN ELEMENTO DE FIBRA OPTICA DENTRO DE UN ORIFICIO DE UN CONDUCTO Y PROPULSAR EL ELEMENTO A LO LARGO DEL CONDUCTO POR LA SUCCION DE FLUIDO DE UN MEDIO GASEOSO, ESTANDO CENTRADO EL ELEMENTO, AL MENOS EN SU EXTREMO DELANTERO, POR UN INSERTO (4) PARA EL CONECTOR; Y B) UNA VEZ QUE EL ELEMENTO HA SIDO PROPULSADO A LO LARGO DEL CONDUCTO, SITUAR UN RECEPTACULO (6) ALREDEDOR DEL INSERTO PARA FORMAR EL CONECTOR. LA INVENCION TAMBIEN PROPORCIONA UN ENSAMBLAJE PARA USARSE EN DICHO METODO. EL METODO Y ENSAMBLAJE POSIBILITAN QUE LOS ELEMENTOS DE FIBRA OPTICA ESTEN REMATADOS EN FABRICA EN VEZ DE EN EL LUGAR DE INSTALACION, Y QUE POSTERIORMENTE SE INSTALEN POR METODOS DE SOPLADO DE FIBRA, INCLUSO CUANDO LOS ELEMENTOS ESTAN TERMINADOS POR CONECTORES QUE SON DEMASIADO VOLUMINOSOS PARA SER INSERTADOS EN EL CONDUCTO.
