ABSTRACT:
A mounting and aligning apparatus for a fiber optic cable is formed of segments interconnected by integrally formed shoulders that are rotated with respect to each other so as to be orthogonal. Apertures are formed in each segment normal to the surfaces of the segments and co-existent with a central axis for insertion of the fiber optic cable. The integrally formed shoulders are stressed past the elastic limit of the material used to produce a starting bias point for the adjustment of the fiber optic cable. Machine screws are used to open and close the relative distance between adjacent segments thereby permitting the alignment of the fiber optic cable with a source of laser light.
