Patent EP-0413844-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NAGASE RYO
IPC: G02B6/30
Filed: 1989-08-22
Abstract: A ferrule for optical fibers transmitting linearly polarized light capable of preventing deterioration and fluctuation of the extinction ratio. The ferrule (100) incorporates at least two paths (107) connecting a region in a vicinity of an end of a puncture (102) for an optical fiber inside the flange portion with outside of the ferrule. These paths effectively enable the removal of air in such a region which could have caused an extraneous stress on the optical fiber resulting in deterioration of the extinction ratio. An optical fiber connector using this ferrule is also disclosed.

Abstract: Reaction-bonded silicon nitride Si3N4 is produced by starting from pure silicon powder or from a powder mixture of pure silicon and its nitride. This is subjected to cold-isostatic pressing or to a slip-casting or die-casting process, before it is transferred into a hot-isostatic press. The reaction is initiated under a nitrogen pressure of initially 0.5 - 2.0 MPa and an initial temperature of 1000 DEG C. During the reaction, the pressure is increased to 4.9 MPa and the temperature is increased to at most 1420 DEG C. This increase in pressure and temperature is effected at least partially in stages. This gives a product of a degree of nitriding of more than 92%. The process permits shaped articles having a wall thickness of more than 10 mm to be produced within a cycle time of less than 24 hours, the material being nitrided evenly.

Abstract: The automatic change-over of the wire supplied to a coil winder for forming the windings of dynamo-electric machines is effected by the provision of at least two wire-supply spools (1, 2) for the selective supply of wire (1a, 2a) to the coil winder. The wire (1a, 2a) from each of the two spools (1,2) may be guided through corresponding passages (3, 4, 5) to the coil winder. Means (7) are provided for cutting each supply wire (1a, 2a) in a zone downstream ot the respective spool (1, 2) and means are provided for joining two zones of the two supply wires (1a, 2a) rigidly together at a point downstream of the cutting means (7). If one of the two wires (1a, 2a) has already been used in the coil winder, and it is wished to replace it by the other wire, (1a, 2a), with the coil winder stopped, the previously-used wire is cut and then the two wires are joined by the connecting means. At this point, the coil winder is restarted so as to draw the new wire (1a,2a) into it by means of the off-cut of the previously-used wire remaining within it. Once this off-cut has left the machine, the latter is again stopped to allow it to be cut, after which a normal operating cycle of the coil winder may be started with the use of the newly -introduced wire (1a, 2a).
