ABSTRACT:
Apparatus 50 for splicing a pair of optical waveguides 32,34 in a splice 5 having three cylindrical rods 2 in a tubular plastic body 12 having a profiled surface 20 which is radially compressed by crimping collars 26. Apparatus 50 has holders 96,96' which hold body 12 stationary and clamping pins 106,106' activated by clamping levers 102,102' to hold waveguides 32,34 stationary while crimpers 90,90' are moved together by rotating handle 65'. Clamping slide 114 and clamp 116 travel on rods 115,117 a limited distance useful in placing the waveguide ends in the center of the splice 5 prior to moving the crimping collars 26.
