A temperature sensor applied to a wire harness includes a temperature-sensitive element, a main body part that holds the temperature-sensitive element, a clamp part, and a connector. The main body part includes a holding part that holds the temperature-sensitive element on the tip side in an insertion direction and is positioned inside the clamp part by being inserted into the clamp part along that direction. The clamp part includes a pair of window parts that allow the temperature-sensitive element to be exposed to outside of the clamp part. Furthermore, the holding part includes a pair of protection wall parts positioned by sandwiching a window part in a state of being inserted into the clamp part. An end part of the wall part on a tip side in the insertion direction is positioned by protruding more than an end part of the temperature-sensitive element on the tip side does.

An installation structure of a temperature sensor includes a measured object support provided with an installation section, a guide section, and a measured object support section configured to support a measured object; and a temperature sensor provided with a guided section engaged with the guide section of the measured object support, and installed in the installation section of the measured object support by moving in a predetermined direction relative to the measured object support in a manner along one predetermined outer surface of the measured object while engaging the guided section with the guide section.

An electric wire arranging jig () has an electric wire arranging groove () configured to be inserted the electric wires. The electric wire arranging groove has a pair of arranging surfaces facing each other. The electric wire arranging groove is configured to have a cross-sectional shape, in a section perpendicular to a direction of the electric wires extending within the electric wire arranging groove, having a distance in a width direction of the electric wire arranging groove continuously narrowed from an insertion start portion for the electric wires toward a bottom portion of the electric wire arranging groove and the arranging surfaces each inclining from a vertical direction, at least in a part of a segment between the insertion start portion and the bottom portion.

A blank has an upper surface and a reverse surface. The upper surface is printed in a conventional manner and includes outer side panels and inner side panels. Attachment regions are provided on the inner side panels of the outer surface, and corresponding attachment regions are provided on the outer side panels of the reverse surface. During assembly the respective attachment regions are arranged to face one another and an adhesive is provided therebetween. In the present method, the attachment regions of the upper surface initially have a surface tension in the range from around 34 dynes/cm to 60 dynes/cm before the upper surface is printed. The attachment regions are treated in order to maintain a surface tension in the desired range of 34 dynes/cm to 60 dynes/cm, following printing and before any adhesive is applied. This is achieved by applying an auxiliary printing medium to the attachment regions.
