ABSTRACT:
A pair of V-shaped slot blocks mounted movably on a base in both the X and Y directions and a microscope for observing the opposed state of optical fibers contained on the blocks, are provided in an apparatus for fusion splicing optical fibers. The microscope is mounted movably in the X and Y directions under a base, thereby observing the opposed states of the optical fibers from below.
