Abstract
Abstract A light ray radiation stand capable of radiating light rays transmitted through an optical conductor cable in an optical desired direction comprises a foundation, a deformable flexible conduit vertically installed on the foundation, and an optical conductor cable. The optical conductor cable is inserted into the conduit and has one end terminating at the tip end portion of the conduit and another end terminating at the circumferential portion of the foundation through the interior of the foundation. The optical conductor cable is capable of being connected with an optical conductor cable at the side of the foundation. The stand is constructed in such a way that light rays are emitted therefrom at the tip end of the conduit.
