Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a filling method of an adhesive into a ferrule which it can be carried out in a short time and the intrusion of air bubbles is prevented very easily. CONSTITUTION:The ferrule 1 is covered on a needle 7 which is faced to the upper side from a core hole 2 and a high viscous adhesive 4 is injected from a tip of the needle 7. The adhesive 4 is filled from the inner part of the core hole 2 but it does not enter a naked optical fiber hole 3, because it is high viscous. Since the ferrule 1 is light in weight, it is pushed up with the adhesive 4 which is filled into the core hole 2. When the core hole 2 is perfectly filled with the adhesive, the adhesive 4 filled in the core hole 2 is sucked by suction force from the naked optical fiber hole 3 and the naked optical fiber hole is filled.

Since the adhesive used in the above-mentioned prior art is viscous, bubbles may be mixed in the filled adhesive. For example, when the adhesive is poured from the entrance of the core wire hole, the adhesive is filled while air is entrained. Further, the higher the speed at which the adhesive is filled, the more the air bubbles are mixed in, so it is necessary to slowly and slowly fill the adhesive.
