Title:
WINDING OF OPTICAL FIBER ON BOBBIN
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS63256901
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A method comprising alternately winding in one direction around the bobbin (34) compact (30) and crossover (52) layers. Each compact layer extends axially of the bobbin from a start end (36) proximate one end (38) of the bobbin to a finish end (40) proximate the other end (42) of the bobbin and includes a plurality of fiber turns (44) in virtual axial contact with each other which define generally parallel grooves (46) in the surface of the compact layer. The turn defining the start and finish ends of each compact layer is aligned with a respective start and finish set-back groove in the surface of the immediately preceding compact layer axially spaced from the respective start and finish ends of the preceding compact layer. Each crossover layer extends axially of the bobbin from the finish end of the preceding compact layer to proximate the start end of the preceding compact layer and includes one or more turns of fiber axially spaced from each other and disposed at an angle to the turns and grooves of the preceding compact layer.
