The present disclosure relates generally to methods for processing ferrules of fiber optic connectors such that the amount of cleaving and/or polishing that is required is eliminated or at least reduced. An apparatus and method of dispensing adhesive through a front end face of a fiber optic ferrule are provided.

Downhole cables having extruded aluminum encapsulation layers

U.S. Patent No.: 11,536,096

Patent date: Dec. 27, 2022 Filed: Feb. 22, 2018

Assignees: AFL Telecommunications LLC, USA

A wire and a method of manufacturing are provided the wire for use in an organic light emitting diode device includes three parts, a first part and a third part are located at both ends of the wire respectively and each of the first part and the third part is a single wire, a second part is located between the first part and the third part, and the second part is a composite wire, wherein the composite wire comprises at least two wires. By dividing a middle part of one wire into multiple wires, the purpose of changing a wire width of a single wire is achieved, ductility of the wire can be enhanced, thereby avoiding the occurrence of the problem that the device cannot normally work caused by wire fracture during folding, and improving the using efficiency of the device.

Inventors: Brett Villiger, Joseph Cignarale

A downhole cable includes a central core. The central core includes a metal tube having a plurality of optical fibers therein or a copper wire. The downhole cable further includes an extruded aluminum tube surrounding the central core.
