Summary:PURPOSE: To prevent damage of an optical fiber core wire, so as to achieve simplification of the ferrule fixing operation by setting the back surface of an optical connector ferrule and the flange lower surface through a process of bring them in contact with the reference surface and the upper surface of a receiving stand, advancing clamp blocks, and bring the right-angled surface into contact with the front surface and the upper surface of the ferrule. CONSTITUTION: A frame body 29 is laid, a ferrule 11 is inserted into a rectangular hole 23 on the upper surface, and the lower surface of a flange part 11a is brought in contact with the upper surface 25 of a receiving stand 21. The frame body 29 is raised until a both leg part upper surface 49 is bumped against a first stop surface 45, and clamp blocks 39 are advanced by rotating a screw shaft 35 by a knob 37. The clamp blocks 39 are diagonally advanced toward the ferrule 11 from above, and a right-angled surface 41 of the clamp block 39 is brought in contact with the front surface and the upper surface of the ferrule 11, so as to clamp the ferrule 11. The ferrule 11 back surface is brought in contact with a reference surface 27 and clamped by the angle to be specified by the reference surface 27.
