Abstract

The present invention provides a method of grinding an optical fiber connector such that the end faces of optical fibers to be held by the optical fiber connector extends externally from the end face of said optical fiber connector, comprising a step of grinding the end faces of the optical fibers while applying a grinding liquid containing a grinding material and alcohol onto a grinding sheet.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified

1 . A method of grinding an optical fiber connector such that the end faces of optical fibers to be held by the optical fiber connector extends externally from the end face of said optical fiber connector, comprising a step of grinding the end faces of the optical fibers while applying a grinding liquid containing a grinding material and alcohol onto a grinding sheet.  
     
     
         2 . The method of grinding an optical fiber connector as defined in  claim 1  wherein said grinding liquid is prepared by mixing alumina powder with polyalcohol.  
     
     
         3 . The method of grinding an optical fiber connector as defined in  claim 1  wherein said grinding liquid is prepared by mixing alumina powder with monoethylene glycol.  
     
     
         4 . The method of grinding an optical fiber connector as defined in  claim 3  wherein said grinding liquid is prepared by mixing one part of alumina powder with 1-2 parts of monoethylene glycol by weight.
