Abstract: A battery characteristic simulating apparatus is provided for supplying electric power for simulating a battery characteristic of a battery to a battery-driven type electronic appliance. The battery characteristic simulating apparatus includes a voltage/current generating unit; a voltage/current measuring unit; a characteristic data acquiring unit; a storage unit; and a simulation signal producing unit that are provided within the same housing of the battery characteristic simulating apparatus.

Abstract: A battery characteristic simulating apparatus is improved which is capable of supplying electric power for simulating a battery characteristic of a battery to a battery-driven type electronic appliance. The battery characteristic simulating apparatus is featured by that a voltage/current generating unit; a voltage/current measuring unit; a characteristic data acquiring unit; a storage unit; and a simulation signal producing unit are provided within the same housing of the battery characteristic simulating apparatus.

Abstract: An optical fiber splice device in which an optical fiber can be connected to a branch line side thereof as the need arises such as in the case where new subscribers join after a multiple optical fiber is connected to a trunk line side thereof. The device includes a plurality of glass capillary tubes, a body equipped with the plurality of glass capillary tubes in a middle portion thereof and a cover glass covering and protecting at least the region where the plurality of glass capillary tubes are provided. The ends of optical fibers of the trunk and branch lines are inserted in the glass capillary tubes to be spliced therein. The optical fiber ends has the coatings thereof removed. The body includes a mount portion in the middle thereof where the plurality of capillary tubes are provided in parallel, and first and second fixing portions on both sides of the mount portion for guiding and fixing the optical fibers to the glass capillary tubes.
