PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical connector excellent in connection workability and a branch structure of a wire harness.SOLUTION: An optical connector comprises: an optical plug 51; an optical receptacle 52 in which the optical plug 51 is approached from a direction orthogonal to an axis of an optical fiber 22 and joined; and alignment means that causes the optical fiber 22 of the optical plug 51 and an optical fiber 65 of the optical receptacle 52 to be aligned with each other by joining the optical plug 51 to the optical receptacle 52. The optical receptacle 52 is provided with a fitting concave part 60 to which the optical plug 51 is fitted; the alignment means consists of both-side walls 61 of the fitting concave part 60 that gradually approach toward a fitting direction of the optical plug 51 to the fitting concave part 60, and both-side walls 71 of the optical plug 51 that are inclined at the same inclination angle as that of the both-side walls 61 of the fitting concave part 60; the optical plug 51 is fitted to the fitting concave part 60 of the optical receptacle 52 and the both-side walls 61 and both-side walls 71 are brought into contact with each other, and thereby the optical fibers 22 and 65 are aligned with each other.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5

    【課題】接続作業性に優れた光コネクタ及びワイヤハーネスの分岐構造を提供すること。【解決手段】光プラグ51と、光プラグ51が光ファイバ22の軸線と直交する方向から近接されて接合される光レセプタクル52と、光プラグ51を光レセプタクル52へ接合させることで、光プラグ51及び光レセプタクル52の光ファイバ22,65を互いに調芯させる調芯手段と、を備え、光レセプタクル52に、光プラグ51が嵌合される嵌合凹部60が設けられ、調芯手段は、光プラグ51の嵌合凹部60への嵌合方向に向かって次第に近接する嵌合凹部60の両側壁61と、嵌合凹部60の両側壁61と同一傾斜角度で傾斜された光プラグ51の両側面71と、からなり、光ファイバ22,65は、光レセプタクル52の嵌合凹部60に光プラグ51が嵌合されて両側壁61と両側面71とが互いに当接することで互いに調芯される。【選択図】図5
