Patent number: 6962446Abstract: The invention relates to a method for fabricating an optical plug connector, according to which the optical waveguide is immersed with the exposed optical fiber into a powdery adhesive and is withdrawn from the same, whereby particles of the powdery adhesive remain adhered to the surface of the fiber. The fiber with the adhered particles is then inserted into the bore of the ferrule of the plug connector and is fixed therein. The ferrule is heated to a temperature greater than or equal to the melting temperature of the adhesive and is maintained at this temperature.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2001Date of Patent: November 8, 2005Assignee: Huber & Suhner AGInventors: Daniel Greub, Beat Koch, Igor Marjetic, Paul Tanner, Martin Burkhard

Publication number: 20030206419Abstract: In order to improve visibility and hence to reduce the risk of accidents, a rope, for example a wire rope, is equipped with a number of luminous elements. A luminous element may in this case assume the position of a wire or of a braid, may be integrated in an insert, or may be guided in the spaces between wires or braids and preferably within the theoretical rope circumference. The luminous element may also itself be composed of luminous elements which are twisted together, are twisted or are laid. For strain relief, the luminous elements may be equipped with a reinforcement in the form of a strand, or with a mesh. The luminous element is intended to be connected to a source. In the state when it is fed, the luminous element is actively luminous. Owing to the improved visibility, rope lights may be used not only for a safety function but also for an aesthetic appearance.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 1, 2003Publication date: November 6, 2003Applicant: Fatzer AG Huber + Suhner AGInventors: Bruno Longatti, Thomas Cantz

Patent number: 6491444Abstract: A method fixes an optical fiber (15) in a connector (10) for an optical plug-in connection. The connector (10) includes a location body (11) having a bore hole (12) to receive the optical fiber (15). In accordance with the method, the optical fiber (15) is inserted into the bore hole (12) of the location body (11) and is fixed therein by bonding with an adhesive (19).

Patent number: 6137352Abstract: The fine protection circuit arrangement is to reduce the remaining residual impulses on gas tube charge eliminators. This is to be achieved by means of a cascading of a gas tube charge eliminator or a .lambda./4 shorting stub with a fine protection circuit. The fine protection circuit connected to the gas tube circuit eliminator or .lambda./4 shorting stub reduces the relatively high residual voltage at the output of the gas tube charge eliminator or .lambda./4 shorting stub to a minimal value.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 1997Date of Patent: October 24, 2000Assignee: Huber and Suhner AGInventor: Ivo Germann

Patent number: 6019640Abstract: The housing bore (5) is substantially widened in the shape of a step at its edge and the outside diameter (A) of a support plate is widened correspondingly. The contact surface (8) of the housing (2) is reduced in accordance with the step-shaped widened part (7) to form comparatively narrow annular surfaces. An advantage of this is that passive intermodulation can essentially be prevented by the reduction of the contact surface.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 1997Date of Patent: February 1, 2000Assignee: Huber+Suhner AGInventor: Roger Harri

Patent number: 5978199Abstract: An EMP-eliminator is to be created which is simultaneously applicable for multiple frequency bands and highest frequencies and at the same time allows transmission of AC/DC supply voltages. For this purpose a casing (20) set in an outer line (10) is provided as well as a line (24) connected in an electrically conductive manner to an inner line of a coaxial line (30). The line (24) is connected in an electrically conductive manner with the equipment casing (20) or its face side via a gas filled overvoltage suppressor (28). The gas eliminator (28) is set into a threaded cover and thus can be exchanged. Between the equipment casing (20) and the line (24) several bushes (25,26) connected electrically to the line are provided. The length of the line (24) corresponds to the .lambda./4 length of the lowest transmitted frequency band. Several serially connected resonant cavities result which are matched in their length to different midband frequencies.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 1998Date of Patent: November 2, 1999Assignee: Huber & Suhner AGInventors: Ivo Germann, Daniel Meyer
