Abstract

See full text

A connector device for coupling non-aligned optical fibres (19, 20), in which light is directed from one fibre to another by a reflector (12) and lenses (13, 14) and the positional relationship between the ends of the optical fibres and the reflector is determined by means (31, 32, 33) for locating the end of each optical fibre to be coupled in a predetermined position both parallel to and transverse the length of the fibre. Also covers a connector device for optically coupling an optical fibre (101, FIG. 14) to deliver light to or receive light from another optical component (102) by way of a lens (110), in which the positional relationship between the end of the optical fibre and the said other optical component is determined by means (106) for locating the end of the said optical fibre in a predetermined position both parallel to and transverse the length of the fibre with respect to the said optical component.
