A METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A FIBRE OPTIC MALE CONTACT

摘要

The method provides for molding the rear end portion 4 of a tubular body 2 made of plastic material on an end portion 5 of a cable adaptor 6. The tubular body 2 has windows 10 formed in a front end portion 3 thereof. A coil spring 21 and a ferrule holder 13 having wings 19 are inserted through the front end portion 3 of the tubular body 2 and forced therethrough so that the wings 19 expand radially the the front end portion 3 and the end walls 11 of the windows 10. When the wings 19 arrive in the windows 10, the end walls 11 and the front end portion 3 may re-contract radially so that the wings 19 may catch the end walls 11 under the bias of the coil spring 21.
