Laser beam coupling device for e.g. solid state laser, has optical beam switch, controlled by locking device, directing laser beam only in safety position of locking device to cable terminal

摘要

The device has a locking device (8) securing a connection between a laser light cable and a cable terminal. An optical beam switch (6) is arranged in a path of a laser beam in front of the terminal. The switch controlled by the device (8) directs the beam only in a safety position of the device (8) to the terminal. An interlocking unit is moved from its locking position to an unlocking position to plug out the cable from the terminal. An independent claim is also included for a Independent claims are also included for the following: (A) a distributor for distributing a laser beam on laser light cables (B) a solid state laser provided with a coupling device.
