Based on an intermediate 20A in which a cladding portion 22 is formed on the outer periphery of a core portion 21, a pair of holes 23 and 24 are provided parallel to the z axis on both sides of the core portion 21 within the cladding portion 22, and an intermediate 20 is thereby fabricated. In this intermediate 20, a width Ry in the y-axis direction is made smaller than a width Rx in the x-axis direction. Moreover, a cylindrical stress applying part 33 is inserted into a hole 23 of the intermediate 20, and a cylindrical stress applying part 34 is inserted into a hole 24 thereof. Thus, a preform 40 is formed. These materials are drawn and integrated together, and a polarization maintaining optical fiber is thereby manufactured.

An apparatus for producing optical fiber ribbons which has a optical fiber gathering device, one or more coating applicators and a turn roller arranged in a straight line, with one or more alignment guide in plate form being provided on a travelling line of optical fibers or optical fiber ribbons upstream of the coating applicator. The alignment guide is chamfered to arch form on the side that contacts the optical fibers or the optical fiber ribbons. The alignment guide suppresses the optical fibers or the optical fiber ribbons from vibrating in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the arrangement of the optical fibers or the optical fiber ribbons.

A furnace and method for drawing an optical fiber is provided. The furnace included a furnace core chamber in which a preform is inserted into the chamber through the upper end thereof and a drawn optical fiber is pulled out of the chamber through an opening positioned at the lower end thereof. The furnace also includes a gas-supply means for introducing an inert gas into the furnace core chamber to thus establish an inert gas atmosphere within the chamber, and a heater for heating the preform so that the lower part of the preform is molten and drawn into the optical fiber, which is positioned around the outer periphery of the furnace core chamber. The furnace further includes an inner furnace core tube, which is positioned within the furnace core chamber and which has a cylindrical part whose lower part is communicated to the opening of the furnace core chamber and a funnel-like part which is positioned on the upper end of the cylindrical part. The funnel-like part has a diameter gradually and upwardly increased so as to surround the lower portion of the molten portion of the preform.

An optical fiber preform manufacturing apparatus which continuously monitors the weight of a preform during manufacturing by a load cell without increasing the offset amount of the preform. The preform manufacturing apparatus includes a rotary chuck unit vertically moved by an elevating unit and a rod gripped by the rotary chuck unit and vertically extending downward. At the time of manufacturing a preform, the elevating unit and the rotary chuck unit are driven to rotate and move a starting rod suspended from the lower end of the rod upward. A support plate is fixed to the rotary chuck unit. Three or more load cells are arranged between the support plate and an elevating plate of the elevating unit. The rotary chuck unit is firmly supported by these load cells, so that the rotating shaft is not inclined. A hole is formed in the elevating plate, and the rotary chuck unit extends through the hole with a gap therebetween. A load by the support plate, the rotary chuck unit, the seed rod, a starting rod and the preform acts on the load cells. Therefore, the weight of the preform can be detected from an output from the load cells.
