Embodiment Construction
[0047] exist figure 1 At 101 , by way of example only, at 102 and 104 two different embodiments of the invention are generally shown. Bends such as 'U' bends, 'S' bends, 'L' bends and virtually any degree of curvature desired can be made. Different basic bend shapes can be cleverly combined to build more complex bends and bends can be designed using (mirror / point) symmetry.
[0048] For example, two 'U' bends can be combined to form an 'S' bend, and the 'U' bend itself can be constructed from two mirror-symmetrical halves, i.e. a doubly symmetrical structure can be created. However, those skilled in the art will understand that such symmetry is not necessary to create a bend using the present invention, ie the bend segments before and after the point of maximum curvature of the bend are not necessarily mirror symmetric.
[0049] The resulting bend is optimized to be optically efficient and provides a small footprint, as well as a small, non-constant bend radius. The order o...
