  • Patent number: 8616784
    Abstract: An optical connector that is assembled onto a terminal of an optical fiber cable including tension bodies. The optical connector includes a housing, a ferrule that is provided in the housing, and a fixing cap that is mounted on the housing. The housing includes a fixing portion of which an outer peripheral surface is provided with a screw portion. While the tension bodies leading from the terminal of the optical fiber cable are interposed between the housing and the fixing cap, the fixing cap is screwed onto and fixed to the fixing portion.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8480314
    Abstract: A method of butting and connecting a first optical fiber and a second optical fiber in an optical connector comprises placing said optical connector that holds said first optical fiber in wherein an optical fiber connection tool; mounting said optical fiber holder on a holder mounting base of a front end bevel processing tool; processing a front end face of said second optical fiber such that said front end face of said second optical fiber is beveled relative to the surface perpendicular to the optical fiber axis direction; transferring said optical fiber holder to said holder support base; and moving said optical fiber holder toward said optical connector along said guide part, and butting and connecting the beveled front end face of said second optical fiber to the front end face of said first optical fiber such that their bevel directions are aligned.

  • Patent number: 8388237
    Abstract: An optical connector that is assembled at the terminal of an optical fiber cable that integrates an optical fiber and a tension-resisting member extending in the longitudinal direction of the optical fiber, the optical connector including: a connector body having a stationary portion at the rear end thereof, the stationary portion having a threaded portion formed on the outer periphery surface, and a fixing cap that is screwed onto the threaded portion of the stationary portion, wherein the fixing cap fixes the tension-resisting member that has been drawn out from the optical fiber cable terminal by sandwiching the tension-resisting member between the fixing cap and the connector body when the fixing cap is screwed onto the stationary portion.
