言ならない。The output optical axis produces a core pre. This core wobbling increases as the transmission distance of the laser beam increases, and eventually it hits the inner wall of the arm, and the laser beam is no longer transmitted. Therefore, in such joints, each joint must be adjusted so that the incident optical axis and the rotation axis of the reflection mirror match under normal pressure.
Also, it must have a structure that will not cause the optical axis to go awry due to shocks, etc.
