To provide a junction connecting device which is a device for joining and connecting a large number of connected, fiber lines and by which the number of constituting parts can be reduced and handling operability of the device is improved. A junction connecting device for joining and connecting a large number of connected fiber lines to junction socket members through junction attachment plug members, the device comprising a large number of junction terminal blocks (2) each having at least one socket member (CS) and being formed into an integral structure and junction terminal block arranging and supporting means (3) for arranging and supporting the socket members through the junction terminal blocks along first and second direction lines in a matrix shape, wherein the first direction lines out of the respective direction lines of the junction terminal blocks can be moved and fixed to disposed fixed positions (P1) and maintenance positions (P2) one line at a time by a one-touch operation.
A junction connecting device for joining and connecting a large number of connected fiber lines to junction socket members through junction attachment plug members, said device comprising a large number of junction terminal blocks each having at least one socket member and being formed into an integral structure and junction terminal block arranging and supporting means for arranging and supporting said socket members through said junction terminal blocks along first and second direction lines in a matrix shape, wherein said first direction lines out of said respective direction lines of said junction terminal blocks can be moved and fixed to disposed fixed positions and maintenance positions one line at a time by a one-touch operation.
A junction connecting device for joining and connecting a large number of connected fiber lines to junction socket members through junction attachment plug members, said device comprising a large number of junction terminal blocks each having at least one socket member and being formed into an integral structure and junction terminal block arranging and supporting means for arranging and supporting said socket members through said junction terminal blocks along first and second direction lines in a matrix shape, wherein said first direction lines out of said respective direction lines of said junction terminal blocks can be moved and fixed to disposed fixed positions and maintenance positions one line at a time by a one-touch operation, said junction terminal block arranging and supporting means is formed of a plurality of wall members standing at regular intervals, said wall member has engaging supporting means including first and second engaging portions for fixing and supporting said junction terminal block in said disposed fixed position and said maintenance position and guide means for sliding and guiding said junction terminal block from said disposed fixed position to said maintenance position, said junction terminal block is formed of a body portion for supporting said socket member, engaging/disengaging operating means connected for a seesaw motion to said body portion through an elastically deformed connecting portion and having a pressing operating portion on one end side and an engaging member to be engaged with said engaging supporting means of said wall member on the other end side, and a guide follower to be engaged for sliding with said guide means of said wall member, and said engaging member of said junction terminal block is released from said first engaging portion of said wall member to slide said junction terminal block and is engaged with said second engaging portion of said wall member by operating said engaging/disengaging operating means of said junction terminal block.
