optical fibers (12) set therein, at the upper portion of a mold
(14) so as to be positioned with respect to one another, the
mold (14) having at least three pin rods (16) capable of fine
motion at the bottom thereof; placing an optical waveguide
component body (A1), having an optical waveguide core portion
(2) embedded therein, on the at least three pin rods (16) in a
manner such that the end faces of the optical waveguide core
portion (2) are opposed to the respective end faces of the
optical fiber ferrules (15), the optical waveguide core portion
(2) comprising cores (2a) which can be butt jointed with the
optical fibers (12) to achieve optical coupling therebetween;
injecting a molding resin into the mold (14) after finely
adjusting the motion of the pin rods (16) to align the optical
waveguide core portion (2) with the optical fibers (12) in the
optical fiber ferrules (15); and taking out the resulting cast
article from the mold (14) and removing the guide pins (4a, 4b),
thereby forming guide pin holes (9a, 9b) in each end face of a

Abstract: Precision cast hollow stationary blade used for
final stage of steam turbine is improved to enhance drain
recovery efficiency. Hollows (4, 5), sectioned by rib (6)
to be independent of each other, are formed in stationary
blade (1) passing therethrough from outer shroud 2 to inner
shroud 3. A plurality of ventral slits (10 to 20) are provided
on blade surface ventral side linearly with predetermined
interval between the slits in two parallel rows. Dorsal slits
(21 to 26) are also provided linearly with predetermined
interval between the slits. Drain on blade surface enters
the hollows (5, 4) through the ventral slits (10 to 20) and
the dorsal slits (21 to 26), respectively, and flows out of
the outer shroud (2) or the inner shroud (3) as drain (40 to

and drain entering the hollow through the dorsal slits flows
out through the ventral slits or reverse case thereof occurs,
the hollows (4, 5) of the present invention being sectioned
by the rib (6), the drain is prevented from flowing out to
the opposite side.
