Embodiment Construction
An array of flexible tubes 10 are bundled as shown in FIG. 1 by two strips 11, 12 of heat shrinkable material which are preferably 1 / 4 inch wide. Tubes 10 are preferably made of a lightweight, low friction, highly flexible plastic such as Teflon.RTM. plastic. Strips 11, 12 are placed 3 / 16th of an inch apart. Strip 12 is located around 1 / 4 inch from one end of tubes 10.
After strips 11, 12 have cooled, spiral wrap material 13 is placed over the bundle of tubes 10, with one edge over strip 11 and the remainder proceeding in the direction opposite strip 12.
A light waveguide cable is then prepared as shown in FIG. 3. After one end of cable jacket 14 has been cut back, a buffer tube 15 including light waveguides 17 extends a short distance. Each fight waveguide 17 is threaded through a flexible tube 10, with an optical coupler 18 being placed on the distal end of each fight waveguide 17. As shown in FIG. 4, tubes 10 extend to meet the rear of couplers 18. A protective boot on each coupler...
