A drive system as disclosed includes an input shaft, an output shaft, and at least two coupling elements respectively coupled to the input shaft and the output shaft. In order to absorb assembly and manufacturing tolerances with respect to the shafts, the coupling elements and their attachment to the shafts and thereby prevent jamming of the drive system, at least one coupling element has an elastically deformable section, the elastically deformable section having a different material or a different cross-section than an adjacent section of the coupling element.

Drive system

The invention relates to a fiber holder system () comprising a base () provided for arrangement on a positioning device, the base () comprising at least three contact surfaces () arranged perpendicular to one another, and a fiber holder () with a arrangement section (), an arm section () and a holding section (), and a holding device () for arrangement of the fiber holder () on the base () with a defined force in a positionally stable and releasable manner, wherein the arrangement section () also comprises three mutually perpendicular arrangement surfaces (), and wherein the holding device () comprises magnets or magnetic sections in order to use the corresponding magnetic forces to press the arrangement surfaces () against the contact surfaces () with a defined force and thereby to realize the positionally stable and releasable arrangement of the fiber holder () on the base (), and wherein a distal end () of the arm portion () is connected to the abutment portion () and wherein at the other distal end () of the arm portion () the holding section () for holding a fiber is disposed. Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of the aforementioned fiber holder system () in a fiber alignment device.

Fiber holder system

The invention relates to a fiber clamp with a base plate and at least two clamping bodies arranged parallel to one another on the base plate, the clamping bodies being pressed towards one another in one direction by means of a tensioning device, so that a fiber that can be arranged between the base plate and the clamping bodies is between the base plate and the clamping bodies can be pinched.
