Problems solved by technology

Specifically, these conventional tools do not allow for setting multiple optical fibers in the splicing equipment in a manner that enables the multiple optical fibers to be spliced ​​together, removes the multiple optical fibers from the splicing equipment after splicing, and removes the multiple optical fibers from the splicing equipment. Multiple optical fibers are arranged in the splice protector so that the splice point can be protected from damage caused by mechanical stress

Abstract

Method of ribbonizing a plurality of optical fibers (103) and ribbonizing apparatus for optical fibers, comprising a tablet (101) including fiber aligning means (104, 105) for aligning a plurality of optical fibers (103) in parallel, the ribbonizing apparatus being configured to be movably arranged in a splicing apparatus (102) when the plurality of optical fibers (103) is aligned in the tablet (101), and to be removed from the splicing apparatus (102) after a splicing process, so that the plurality of optical fibers (103) is not damaged due to mechanical stress.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an apparatus for splicing optical fibers into a ribbon and a method for splicing optical fibers into a ribbon. Background technique [0002] In practice, an apparatus for splicing short optical fibers into a ribbon is well known and is manufactured and sold by Furukawa under the name "Furukawa Ribbonization Holder". [0003] Other conventional tools are known in the art as e.g. 3M TM Fibrlok TM Optical fiber ribbonizing tool using adhesive tape as fastening means or using Fujukura tapering method using glue as fastening means. [0004] However, all traditional tools have some drawbacks. Specifically, these conventional tools do not allow for setting multiple optical fibers in the splicing equipment in a manner that enables the multiple optical fibers to be spliced ​​together, removes the multiple optical fibers from the splicing equipment after splicing, and removes the multiple optical fibers from the splicing equi...
