Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
59 words
An optical cable element having a core and at least one optical fibre which is provided around the core and which may comprise a separate secondary coating of synthetic resin, characterized in that the optical fibre, or, in the presence of a separate secondary coating, said coating, is connected to the core by means of a permanently elastic adhesive.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
59 words
An optical cable element having a core and at least one optical fibre which is provided around the core and which may comprise a separate secondary coating of synthetic resin, characterized in that the optical fibre, or, in the presence of a separate secondary coating, said coating, is connected to the core by means of a permanently elastic adhesive.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim

An optical cable element as claimed in Claim 1, characterized in that a hot melt adhesive is used.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
50 words
An optical cable element as claimed in Claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the adhesive is distributed over the whole surface of the core or over circumferential parts of the surface of the core which are present at mutually equal distances viewed in the longitudinal direction of the core.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
46 words
An optical cable element as claimed in Claim 3, characterized in that the thickness of the layer of adhesive is smaller than the diameter of the optical fibre, or, in the presence of a separate secondary coating, is smaller than the diameter of the coated fibre.
