Patent abstract
An optical fiber connector is used to optically connect a pair of optical fibers with their tips opposing each other. The optical fiber connector is formed of a material having a higher thermal deformation temperature than the coverings of the optical fibers. The connector has a guide hole for inserting therein the optical fibers with their tips opposing each other. The connector has fiber-fixing groove portions circumferentially formed in the wall of the guide hole. When the coverings of the optical fibers are thermally deformed, parts of the coverings bite the groove portions, whereby the optical fibers are fixed in the guide hole.
