  • Opto-electronic device housing having self-healing elastomeric board mount with support pylons
    Patent number: 5289345
    Abstract: A housing for interconnecting an opto-electronic device with a ferrule includes a base and a cover cooperable with the base to define a chamber. The housing also includes an elastomeric board mount, with pylons supporting a substrate, disposed in a sealing relationship between the base and the cover when the same are conjoined and arranged to seal legs on the substrate that extend through the elastomeric board mount.
    Type: Grant

  • Housing for an opto-electronic device
    Patent number: 5011246
    Abstract: A housing for interconnecting an opto-electronic device with a ferrule includes a base, a cover cooperable with the base to define a chamber, and a mounting member is characterized by a pivot arrangement disposed on the mounting member and cooperating with at least one of the base or the cover for accommodating pivotal motion of the mounting member to permit the axis of the mounting member to translate in two orthogonal directions in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the chamber and also to permit the top of the mounting member to displace in the perpendicular plane to align the axis of the mounting member collinearly with the axis of the ferrule. The housing also includes an elastomeric board mount disposed in a sealing relationship between the base and the cover when the same are conjoined and arranged to seal legs on a substrate that extend through the elastomeric board mount.

  • Package for an opto-electronic component
    Patent number: 5011256
    Abstract: A package for an opto-electronic component and associated pigtail is characterized by a notch formed in the sidewall of an open topped lower housing portion which interrupts the edge of the housing such that the component can be laid into the housing with the pigtail extending through the notch.

  • Automatic splicing device and process
    Patent number: 4521263
    Abstract: An apparatus, system, and process for making a sterile connection between two thermoplastic resin tubes is disclosed. The tubes are cut by a hot cutting means so as to form a molten interface between the tubes and the cutting means. The tubes are aligned with each other and slid off an edge of the cutting means while being urged together. As the thermoplastic resin cools a sterile splice is formed. The apparatus is controlled to provide precise timing of the above events and includes safeguards to ensure sterility is maintained.
