The present invention relates to a coupling device for feeding a laser beam 66 into at least one optical fiber 12, in particular an optical wave-guide, including a fiber coupler 18 for accommodating said fiber 12, and an optical device 94 for deflecting, adjusting and directing said laser beam 66 towards one end 14 of said fiber 12, with said fiber coupler 18 being provided within said coupling device 10 such that it can be slid vertically and horizontally in the x-y directions, and with said optical device 94 including an optical bank 96 with at least two optical components 58, 62, said optical bank 96 being connected to said fiber coupler 18 via a coupling element 32 provided at the end of said optical bank 96 which is opposite the entry site of said laser beam 66.
A coupling device for feeding a laser beam into at least one optical fiber, in particular an optical wave-guide, including a fiber coupler for accommodating said fiber, and an optical device for deflecting, adjusting and directing said laser beam towards one end of said fiber wherein said fiber coupler is mounted within said coupling device such that it can be slid vertically and horizontally in the x-y directions, and said optical device includes an optical bank with at least two optical components, said optical bank being connected to said fiber coupler via a coupling element provided at the end of said optical bank opposite the entry site of said laser beam.
