ABSTRACT:
An optical fiber end-surface polishing device has an improved ferrule fixing device allowing ferrules with optical fibers to be attached to or detached from a holder plate for polishing by a simple operation. The optical fiber end-surface polishing device, having a ferrule fixing device, simultaneously polishes the end surfaces of a plurality of ferrules with optical fibers fixed to and supported by a holder plate. The device includes ferrule accommodating sockets provided on the holder plate and having through holes for accommodating ferrules; and ferrule presser levers supported by stationary shafts substantially parallel to the through holes and biased toward descent by biasing devices, wherein each of the ferrule presser levers is movable between an angular position where the ferrules inserted into the associated ferrule accommodating sockets are downwardly pressed and an angular position where the polished ferrules can be detached.
