<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a waterproof terminal structure for an optical cable in which assemblability is superior, the number of constituting parts is small, the structure is simple and the cost is reduced. <P>SOLUTION: A plug 7, to which a rubber packing 8 is mounted, is put onto the outer peripheral of an optical cable 1 whose outer cover is peeled off. Then, the terminal section of the cable 1 is inserted into a shell 5 from the cable inserting port of the shell, an adhesive 9 is injected into the shell 5 from an injection hole 6 provided on the shell 5, the hole 6 is closed after the injection and a tension member 4 being stripped off from the end of the cable is fixed to the shell 5. The inner peripheral surface of the packing 8 mounted on the plug 7 is closely contacted with an outer skin 2 of the cable 1 and the outer peripheral surface of the packing 8 is closely contacted with the inner surface of the cable insertion port of the shell 5 so as to secure good water-proofing. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
