Method for manufacturing an optical fiber spool with self-supporting coil of an optical fiber and optical fiber spool

摘要

A method for manufacturing an optical fiber spool includes winding a coil of an optical fibers up in the form of a cross-winding such that several layers of the optical fiber are formed that lie on top of one another. The optical fiber has a surface that respectively features contact areas between adjacent layers. Elevations are produced on the surface to create intermediate spaces between the elevations. The elevations are distributed so that in the region of one of the respective contact areas, at least one of the elevations of one of the adjacent layers of the respective contact area engages into at least one of the intermediate spaces of the other adjacent layer to of the same contact area. An optical fiber spool with a self-supporting coil of an optical fiber can be produced.

1. A method for manufacturing an optical fiber spool with a self-supporting coil of an optical fiber, wherein the coil is wound up in the form of a cross-winding such that the coil is formed with several layers of the optical fiber that lie on top of one another, and wherein the optical fiber has a surface and the optical fiber spool respectively features contact areas between adjacent layers of the layers lying on top of one another,
wherein elevations are produced on the surface, wherein intermediate spaces are created between the elevations, and wherein the elevations are distributed in such a way that, in the region of one of the respective contact areas, at least one of the elevations of one of the adjacent layers of the respective contact area engages into at least one of the intermediate spaces of the other adjacent layer of the same contact area.
