Abstract

Abstract Translated from French Le dispositif de raccordement comprend un support (4), en matériau mou, déformable élastiquement. Sa surface supérieure comporte une rainure droite (5), propre à recevoir face à face les extrémités respectives de deux fibres optiques (1, 2) à raccorder. Le support (4) est logé dans une embase (3), dont les montants (32, 33) reviennent en partie supérieure pour former des griffes (34, 35) qui maintiennent en appui sur la surface du support (4) une plaque rigide surfacée (8) de préférence en verre. A distance, des brides (15, 25) maintiennent les fibres (1, 2) en léger flambage, du côté du support. The connection device comprises a support (4), of soft material, elastically deformable. Its upper surface has a straight groove (5), suitable for receiving face to face the respective ends of two optical fibers (1, 2) to be connected. The support (4) is housed in a base (3), the uprights (32, 33) of which return in the upper part to form claws (34, 35) which maintain in support on the surface of the support (4) a rigid plate surfaced (8) preferably in glass. At a distance, flanges (15, 25) keep the fibers (1, 2) in slight buckling, on the side of the support.
