OPTICAL FIBER SPLICING TECHNIQUE Abstract of the Disclosure Splicing of one or more pairs of mating optical fibers is facilitated by a loose-fitting optical fiber receiving tube having a uniform interior or cross section with at least one corner; the corner forms a fiber-aligning groove substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the tube. Mating fibers, introduced into opposite ends of the tube, are bent at an angle with respect to the longitudinal axis sufficient to bias the fibers against the tube's interior surfaces. In response to forces generated by the bent fiber the tube rotates to align itself until the mating fiber ends are lodged against the fiber-aligning groove. This procedure effects transverse alignment of the mating fibers, after which the fibers, still bent, are moved toward each other into abutment. - i -
