Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 181 words
A fibre-tailed optical transmitter package including a windowed (51) hermetically sealed container (1) containing an optically emissive electro-optical transducer (43), a holder (8) in which said container (1) is secured, and an optical fibre termination body (20) in which one end portion of an optical fibre tail (28) is inserted and secured, the axis of said end portion defining the axis of the fibre termination body (20), which body is provided with a wall (30) to which the fibre termination body axis extends normally, by which wall the fibre termination body is secured by a plurality of welds (W) to a co-operating wall (9) of the holder, wherein one of said walls is formed by a flange (20A), and wherein the normal to the end face (60) of said end portion of the optical fibre tail is inclined at an angle to the fibre termination axis, characterised in that the optical emission of the transducer (43) passes obliquely through the window (51) of the container (1) to be obliquely incident upon said inclined end face (60) of the fibre tail (28).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 56 words
A fibre-tailed optical transmitter package as claimed in claim 1, wherein the optical termination body has two components parts (20, 20B) permanently secured together, which parts, before they were secured together, were adapted to slide one relative to the other so as to effect axial movement of the fibre tail (28) relative to the container (1).
