Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is the "Translatable Fiber Stripper." This system is designed for stripping an optical fiber and includes a source of air along with means for generating very short bursts of air. A heater heats these bursts of air to a temperature sufficient to remove the outer coating from an optical fiber, while ensuring that the air remains isolated from the heat source. A single burst of heated air can remove the outer coating of an optical fiber in less than about one second. Additionally, a series of closely spaced bursts or a prolonged burst of heated air can be utilized to remove an expanded length of fiber coating. The design allows for the translation of the fiber or the heater, or portions thereof, making it versatile for various applications.
Another significant invention is the "Sleeve Shrinking System with Forced Fluid Adjusted Thermal Profile." This system and method enable the quick heating of a shrinkable casing around a relatively non-shrinkable object. For instance, it can be used to shrink a sleeve around a strand, such as fiber or copper. The invention employs a contact approach to heating the loaded sleeve, applying a predetermined temperature profile to prevent air trapping during the shrinking process. The thermal profile can be selectively controlled by applying a fluid to the junction where heat is applied to the loaded sleeve.
