Abstract
A storage case including a fusion splicer accommodating portion, an optical fiber cutter accommodating portion, an optical fiber cutter holder, and a support portion. The fusion splicer accommodating portion includes a first placement surface. The optical fiber cutter holder has a second placement surface configured to fix a bottom surface of an optical fiber cutter, and is supported to be rotatable around a rotating shaft separated from a plane including the first placement surface. The support portion is disposed between the fusion splicer accommodating portion and the optical fiber cutter accommodating portion. The support portion is in contact with the optical fiber cutter holder which has rotated such that an angle formed by a line normal to the first placement surface and a line normal to the second placement surface is an acute angle, to support the optical fiber cutter holder.
