  • Patent number: 11784291
    Abstract: A light-emitting device including: a mounting substrate including a mounting surface; a light-emitting element disposed on the mounting surface; a light transmissive component disposed on the light-emitting element; and a resin component directly contacting and covering a side surface of the light-emitting element and a side surface of the light transmissive component. The resin component includes a peripheral portion that directly contacts and covers the side surface of the light transmissive component, a protrusion that protrudes from the peripheral portion, and a cover portion that directly contacts and covers an outer edge portion of a topmost surface of the light transmissive component. The height from the mounting surface to a top of the cover portion is greater than a height from the mounting surface to the topmost surface of the light transmissive component, and the topmost surface of the light transmissive component includes a region exposed from the resin component.

  • Patent number: 5291573
    Abstract: A optical fiber cable wound about an overhead transmission line stretched between supporting poles installed a predetermined distance apart from each other, comprises a tension member, a plurality of plural-core type optical fiber tape-shaped strands arranged on the outside of the tension member, a buffer layer covering outer surface of the arrangement of the plural-core type optical fiber tape-shaped strands, and a sheath covering the outer surface of the buffer layer. The tape-shaped strands each include a plurality of optical fibers arranged side by side, and a covering layer collectively covering the plurality of side by side optical fibers. The particular construction permits the optical fiber cable to house a larger number of optical fibers for a given diameter of the cable while maintaining a high heat resistance and satisfactory mechanical properties.

  • Patent number: 4715582
    Abstract: A method of winding an optical cable on an aerial wire which comprises a bobbin winding the optical cable while imparting a twist reverse to the twist given to the optical cable when the cable is wound on the wire and the step of feeding the optical cable from said bobbin while rotating said bobbin around the aerial wire to wind the cable on the wire. The twist of the optical cable is once at every 30 to 40 cm of the length of the optical cable. Thus, the cable is wound on the wire by reducing the twist imparted to the cable to zero or at least small value.
