Abstract
A terminal for ultrasonic wave connection is to be nipped between a first member and a second member, while a covered wire having core elements and a cover portion covering external circumference thereof is stacked on the terminal. The cover portion is melted by applying ultrasonic vibration, while the first and second members are pressed, so that the terminal and core elements are conductively contacted with each other. The terminal includes a relief portion for releasing the melted cover portion. The relief portions are provided at a portion to which the covered wire is to be connected.
