1. An optical fiber inspecting device comprising:

  • a first light-emitting unit that irradiates an optical fiber with a first light beam, the optical fiber including a glass fiber and a coating resin and moving in an axial direction; and

    a first light-receiving unit that receives scattered light resulting from the first light beam scattered in the optical fiber, and converts the scattered light to an electrical signal,wherein an optical axis of the first light-receiving unit passes through an irradiation position where the first light beam strikes the optical fiber, and the first light beam and the optical axis of the first light-receiving unit diagonally intersect each other, thereby preventing the first light beam from directly entering the first light-receiving unit;

    wherein each light beam and the optical axis of each light-receiving unit corresponding to that light beam intersect each other at an angle in a range of 131°

    to 135°
