Patent number: 8202010Abstract: A connector component for optical fibers has good dimensional accuracy and parallelism. The connector component includes a base material. The base material is provided with at least two holes for inserting and fixing optical fibers therein. The base material is made of quartz glass. Inner components are arranged for forming holes for inserting optical fibers in a die for forming an outer form of the connector component with a dimensional accuracy equal to or less than 2 ?m. Slurry is poured into the die, the slurry including quartz powder, a resin binder, a dispersant, water and a curing agent. The poured slurry is cured and heated under vacuum so as to vitrify the cured slurry to obtain the quartz glass.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2011Date of Patent: June 19, 2012Assignee: Kohoku Kogyo Co., Ltd.Inventors: Futoshi Ishii, Shuhei Yoshizawa, Tamotsu Yajima, Haruhito Araki

Patent number: 7266282Abstract: There is provided a multi-cored fiber array for optical communication which has high dimensional accuracy, can easily be prepared by machining, and is low in cost. There is also provided a fiber array for optical communication which can reduce the necessary amount of an adhesive used for fixing optical fibers to a substrate. The fiber array for optical communication comprises: a substrate for inserting optical fibers therein; and a press plate for pressing and fixing the inserted optical fibers. The substrate has a plurality of grooves into which the optical fibers are to be inserted. The accuracy of the center-to-center dimension between the grooves adjacent to each other is within ±0.5 ?m, and the degree of parallelization in the groove length direction between the grooves adjacent to each other is within ±0.1 degree.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2003Date of Patent: September 4, 2007Assignee: Kohoku Kogyo Co., Ltd.Inventors: Jiangron Qiu, Kazuyuki Hirao, Shuhei Yoshizawa, Tamotsu Yajima, Futoshi Ishii

Then, by dipping the holder into molten metal by facing its opening part downwards, a space contacting with molten metal is enclosed in the holding cup. Thereby, reduction of solid electrolyte constituting the sensor element can be prevented, and hydrogen concentration in molten metal can be accurately measured without direct dipping the sensor element into molten metal.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 1994Date of Patent: August 29, 1995Assignee: Tokyo Yogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Kunihiro Koide, Tamotsu Yajima
