Abstract
An imaging system comprising a source of light movable with respect to a writing element and a multiple laser diode and optical fiber assembly. Each laser diode and optical fiber assembly includes an optical fiber connected to a laser diode and guided through an inlet chamber, a cylindrical chamber, an outlet chamber and led out through a connector chamber where the fiber is connected to a connector member. The laser diode and optical fiber mounts can be readily assembled and serviced and yet provide the requisite safety against unwanted exposure to damaging light.
