ABSTRACT:
A method of grinding ferrules for ribbon type optical fibers wherein the method comprises the steps of locating the end surfaces of the ferrules with respect to a grinding surface of a grinding member, reciprocatingly turnably displacing the ferrules along an arched locus, and grinding the end surfaces of the ferrules with the grinding wheel. To practice the method, an apparatus including a ferrule holding member, a supporting member having the ferrule holding member turnably supported thereon, a driving unit in the form of an electric motor including a reduction gear, a connecting rod bridged between the driving unit and the ferrule holding member to reciprocably turn the ferrule holding member, a grinding member mounted on a frame of the apparatus, a grinding position adjusting unit, a compression spring for normally biasing the supporting member in the upward direction, and a base board mounted on the frame of the apparatus for turning the supporting member about an intermediate position thereof. The end surfaces of the ferrules are normally immovably held at positions at a right angle relative to the grinding surface of the grinding member. Alternatively, they may immovably be held at positions where the ferrules are inclined at a predetermined inclination angle.
