Abstract:
The present embodiment makes it possible to reduce the height of an optical connection component including a bent optical fiber having a bent-shape part and a fiber fixing component in a safer and more stable manner compared to a conventional technique. Before the fiber fixing component is fixed to the bent optical fiber, formation of a bent portion using the fiber fixing component obliquely disposed and heating of the bent portion are repeated a plurality of times for the optical fiber to which the fiber fixing component is movably fitted. At that time, movement of the optical fiber and the heating of the bent portion are alternately repeated. Thus, a plurality of bent portions where stress is released is formed in the optical fiber along the longitudinal direction thereof.

Claim (Index 3):
The method for manufacturing the optical connection component according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein the heating step includes emitting a laser beam to heat the bent portion.
