Claim:
An optical fiber guide device comprising: a guide body operable to guide and hold an optical fiber cord received and bent along an arc therein, said guide body including a guide receiving part having a base bordered substantially perpendicularly by a pair of peripheral walls for flanking said optical fiber cord to form a trough having an opening opposite said base in a substantially U-shape cross-section, said base having a planform following the arc, first and second members of said pair of peripheral walls being respectively convex and concave to said trough, said trough able to receive said optical fiber cord through said opening, said pair of peripheral walls causing said optical fiber cord to bend in said trough along the arc; and a mounting part provided on an outer face of said guide body and adapted to be fitted to an object of installation in which said optical fiber cord is to be installed, wherein said guide body further includes a lid part attachable to said guide receiving part so as to cover said opening, and either one of said guide receiving part and said lid part is provided with stoppers which extend in a direction perpendicular to an axial direction of said optical fiber cord so as to clamp said optical fiber cord which is received and arranged in said guide receiving part from both sides, and bite a coating of said optical fiber cord received and arranged in said guide receiving part thereby to position and hold said optical fiber cord in its axial direction.
