HIGH EFFICIENT LED TO FIBER COUPLING

摘要

A coupling assembly for mechanically and optically coupling an LED to a fiber optic. The assembly has a light guide with an axis and has a first end including an input window to receive light from the LED. The input window is formed to interface with the LED. A second end includes an output window. A light transmissive body extends axially from the input window to the output window, and a housing has a support coupling to the light guide. A first wall extends from the support to a coupling face adjacent the input window, the coupling face being formed to interface with the support for the LED. A second wall extends from the support adjacent the output window and defines an output recess with the output window defining an internal end wall of the output recess. The recess is formed to receive an end of the fiber optic.
