First Claim
Patent Images
1. An anti-PMD system comprising:
- an anti-PMD pulley (1) over which an optical fiber (4) is to roll and which is mounted to rotate about an axis of rotation (ar); and
at least two optical fiber guide devices (2, 3) situated on either side of the anti-PMD pulley (1);
the system being characterized in that the axis of rotation (ar) of the anti-PMD pulley (1) is stationary;
in that the only degree of freedom of the anti-PMD pulley (1) is rotation about the axis of rotation (ar) of the anti-PMD pulley (1); and
in that at least one of the guide devices (2, 3) is movable in translation in a translation direction (dt) that is not orthogonal to the axis of rotation (ar) of the anti-PMD pulley (1).
