Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of optical communications. It relates to an optical connector according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Optical fiber networks are increasingly used in all areas for data transmission because of their wide bandwidth and the insensitivity to electromagnetic interference.
- connectors which are arranged at the cable or wire ends and safely couple in the inserted state emerging from the fiber ends of a connector side light signals in the fiber ends of the other connector side.
- Such connector systems require direct contact between the end faces of the ferrules fixed in the individual fibers, which requires precise processing of the ferrules flush with the fiber ends by various grinding processes and precise orientation of the fiber ends when installed in the connector and the mutual alignment in the inserted state.
- optical means such as lenses in connector systems at the fiber ends in order to expand and parallelize the beams coming from the fiber ends and thereby reduce the requirements for the mutual alignment of the fibers to be connected.
- Such connector systems are known for single fibers, for example, from US-A-5,768,458 or for several fibers from JP-A-2007041222. Instead of lenses and specially shaped mirror elements can be used (DE-Al -100 43 985).
- Essential for the optical connector according to the invention is an insert in which the wires of a cable to be connected are inserted on a first side and in which the wires terminate with their optical fibers.
- This insert has, on a second side, a widening device on which the jets emerge widened out of the fibers.
- the insert comprises two separate, composable sub-elements, one of which is designed as a widening device and the other as a holding block for receiving the ends of the wires. This advantageously makes it possible to process the fiber ends with comparatively few restrictions when the wire ends have already been picked up by the holding block.
- the holding block and the expansion device are formed and adapted to each other, that in the composite insert, the fibers of the wire end received by the holding block with a fiber portion of predetermined length out of the holding block and project into the expansion device.
- the fiber ends are freely accessible and can be processed with a laser process precisely and quickly.
- the wire ends can be accommodated in a particularly simple manner if the holding block has, for each of the wire ends, a wire bore extending from the first side into the holding block, which passes via a subsequent insertion cone into a fiber hole ending on the opposite side of the holding block.
- connection density if the core holes or fiber bores are arranged parallel to each other and in several rows one above the other in the holding block.
- a checkerboard-like or a densest-packed arrangement or other suitable arrangement of the holes can be provided.
- Lenses or ball lenses or CRIN lenses or comprise reflective optical elements, in particular in the form of mirrors or parabolic mirrors.
- the second means comprise Justierbohronneus or V-grooves.
- Another embodiment is characterized in that the end faces of the protruding from the holding block fiber sections are laser-processed, for which purpose preferably a known as laser cleaving process is used.
- the insert is installed in a housing.
- the optical fibers are exposed over a predetermined length in a first step to the wire ends belonging to the connector before the wire ends with the exposed fibers are introduced into the holding block and fixed there in a second step such that the exposed fibers respectively protrude with a fiber portion of the holding block, in a third step, the protruding fiber portions are processed by a laser cleaving process, in a fourth step, the holding block with the wire ends received therein is assembled with an expansion device provided to an insert, and finally the insert is installed in a housing.
- a preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention is characterized in that a widening device is used, which comprises optical means for widening the rays emerging from the wires, and that the exposed fiber sections are adjusted in the assembly of the holding block and the widening device with respect to the optical means ,
- the inventive optical connector system comprises two matched optical connectors, which can be detachably connected to each other, wherein the two connectors are designed according to the invention.
- the inserts of the two connectors are formed identically. Furthermore, it is advantageous if the inserts of the two plugged connectors are aligned with respect to the optical axes and spaced from each other.
- the connectors can be latched together by a screw connection or a bayonet fitting or by a resilient snap lock, wherein preferably the plug connectors can be locked together in a sealing manner.

- the expansion block 1 18 in this example is a one-piece block of glass or other transparent material, on one outer side of which jet-expanding optical elements in the form of convex lenses 1 16 are formed, which form a bores 121, 1 23 and 124 corresponding double-row arrangement and in composite insert 1 13 correspond to the adjustment holes 124 with respect to the optical axis.
- the expansion block 1 18 can also be combined with the adjusting device 1 17 to a micromechanically processed unit.
- the fibers 1 19 are first exposed to a certain length at the individual wires 1 1 5.
- the wire ends 1 15 with the exposed fibers 1 19 are then inserted into the corresponding holes 121, 1 23 in the holding block 1 13, until the configuration shown in FIG. 7 results, in which the fibers 1 19 with fiber sections 120 protrude freely from the opposite side of the holding block 1 13.
