Optical connector
An optical connector according to the present disclosure is an optical connector for optically coupling a first optical transmission path and a second optical transmission path, including a first connector part disposed so as to cover at least a part of the first optical transmission path the first connector part including a first positioning portion for performing positioning with respect to the first optical transmission path a second positioning portion for performing positioning of the second optical transmission path held by the second connector part connected to the first connector part and a measurement auxiliary portion formed so as to correspond to the arrangement of the second positioning portion, wherein at least a part of the first positioning portion and at least a part of the measurement auxiliary portion are formed at positions that can be visually recognized simultaneously from the same direction.
1. An optical connector for optically coupling a first optical transmission path and a second optical transmission path, comprising:
a first connector part disposed so as to cover at least a part of said first optical transmission path,
said first connector part including
a first positioning portion for performing positioning with respect to said first optical transmission path;
a second positioning portion for performing positioning of said second optical transmission path held by a second connector part connected to said first connector part, wherein the second position portion comprises at least one insertion hole extending from an outermost surface of the first connector part on a side to which the second connector part is connected to an inside of the first connector part; and
a measurement auxiliary portion formed so as to correspond to arrangement of said second positioning portion, wherein the measurement auxiliary portion is formed on a first surface of the first connector part opposite to an outermost surface with respect to the insertion hole so as to be sandwiched between the insertion hole and the first positioning portion, wherein the first surface on which the measurement auxiliary portion is formed is coplanar with a second surface on which the first positioning portion is formed, and wherein
at least a part of said first positioning portion and at least a part of said measurement auxiliary portion are formed at positions that can he visually recognized simultaneously from the same direction.
2. The optical connector according to claim 1 , wherein said at least one insertion hole comprises two insertion holes each configured to receive a respective guide pin for connection with said second connector part; and
said measurement auxiliary portion comprises two grooves each integrally formed with said two insertion holes, respectively.
3. The optical connector according to claim 1 , wherein
said measurement auxiliary portion is formed as a respectively concentric shape with the shape of said second positioning portion formed in a circular shape.
4. The optical connector according to claim 1 , wherein
said measurement auxiliary portion is formed as a recessed shape with respect to a surface of said first connector part.
