〔産業上の利用分野〕
この発明は、プラスチツク系光フアイバーの端
面を正確にかつ効率良く処理するための装置に関
するものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an apparatus for accurately and efficiently processing the end face of a plastic optical fiber.
プラスチツク系光フアイバーは、その製造工程
で延伸しているため、これを加熱すると直径方向
に膨大化し、また端面が溶融される程に加熱して
冷却すると平滑化するという特徴がある。
Plastic optical fibers are drawn during the manufacturing process, so when they are heated they expand in the diameter direction, and when they are heated to the point that their end faces are melted, they become smooth when they are cooled.
このような特徴を利用し、プラスチツク系光フ
アイバーの端部に嵌合したフエノール等と称され

本出願人が既に提案した特開昭57−181513号公報
や特開昭58−187903号公報によつて知られてい
る。 Taking advantage of these characteristics, it is possible to fix the cylindrical body called phenol etc. fitted to the end of a plastic optical fiber and finish the end surface.
This method is known from Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 57-181513 and 58-187903, which were proposed by the present applicant.

しようとするものである。
Among the methods described above, the present invention focuses on the fact that heating the plastic optical fiber at high temperature without contact with mirror surfaces etc. is effective in shortening the processing time and preventing staining of the end face. The present invention aims to provide a device that can perform this process accurately and efficiently.

閉方式等でもかまわない。 Further, the shutter mechanism 5 is of a disk type in this example, and is composed of a heat-resistant disk 51 having a through hole 51A, a drive shaft 52, and a drive motor. Of course, this shutter mechanism may be of a sliding type, an opening/closing type, or the like.
〔作用〕
本発明の処理装置を使用する場合、図のように
火炎を下向きに噴出させる。そしてまず透孔５１
Ａのない部分５１Ｂを火炎直下に位置させ、次に
保持具２１に光フアイバー４を対峙させ、円盤５
１を約45度で回転させる。この回転により透孔５
１Ａが図のように通るが、この状態で火炎が光フ
アイバー端面４１に接触し処理できる。[Operation] When using the processing apparatus of the present invention, flame is ejected downward as shown in the figure. And first, through hole 51
Place the part 51B without A directly under the flame, then make the optical fiber 4 face the holder 21, and remove the disk 5.
Rotate 1 at about 45 degrees. Through this rotation, the through hole 5
1A passes through as shown in the figure, and in this state the flame contacts the optical fiber end face 41 and can be processed.
本発明は以上詳述した如き構成からなるもので
