Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for treating optical fibers can be used to carry out necessary cleaning work on the end tips of the glass fibers of fiber-optic cables. The apparatus has modules which are provided with non-abrasive surface layers able to pick up contaminants and are spring-mounted in relation to one another such that they can be pivoted about a hinge joint, and, in the case of at least one of the modules, elastic material layers are introduced between the surface layer and the main body of the assembly. The assemblies are preferably designed in the form of grip plates, between which non-abrasive, cloth-like layers are applied, as a cleaning surface, to each of the facing surfaces and, in the case of both gripping plates, elastic insulating materials are arranged between the cloth-like surface layer and the gripping plate.
