  • Patent number: 11474303
    Abstract: An object is to provide an optical fiber connector ferrule, a sleeve, and a method for manufacturing a ferrule member that can avoid an increase in manufacturing time and an increase in cost of optical connectors for connecting multicore optical fibers. The present invention provides an optical fiber connector ferrule, a sleeve, and a method for manufacturing ferrule member which realizes alignment of multicore optical fibers corresponding to the connection by mounting a ferrule on a multicore fiber and then cutting a ferrule member instead of aligning core positions by rotating an axis of an optical fiber and adjusting positions of cores to the ferrule, leading to simplification of a rotational alignment step.

  • Publication number: 20220183331
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing instant Japanese noodles having a reduced amount of salt kneaded into the noodles, wherein the instant Japanese noodles are enhanced in salty taste. When the amount of salt kneaded into instant Japanese noodles is reduced, the instant Japanese noodles can be enhanced in salty taste by adding potassium lactate, granulated sugar, citric acid, and a kelp processed product and/or a dried bonito processed product, instead of salt, and thus instant Japanese noodles having favorable salty taste can be produced even if the amount of salt is reduced.
