Abstract
Device for severing at least one optical fiber When severing optical fibers ( ) with conventional severing devices, after the severing operation the severed fibers ( ) are distributed in a disorderly manner on the second fixing element ( ), with the result that they can only be removed with difficulty and laboriously. Using a bonding device ( ) in the form of a rocker ( ) with an adhesive strip ( ), the fiber ends are adhesively bonded on during the severing operation, with the result that they remain in an orderly manner on the adhesive strip after the severing operation. The rocker ( ) is in this case mounted such that it can pivot between an inserting position and a severing position, in order to facilitate the insertion of the fibers ( ).
