Abstract
A tab ( ) has first and second plates ( ). A bulge ( ) of the first plate ( ) is spaced from the second plate ( ). Supports ( ) project from the bulge ( ) and contact with the second plate ( ). Thus, a sufficient strength is secured for the tab ( ). The supports ( ) are in contact with the second plate ( ) at positions displaced toward side edges from the free ends ( ). Thus, there is no danger that the supports ( ) will thrust themselves between the free ends ( ) to separate the free ends ( ) when the first plate ( ) is pressed, thereby preventing the tab ( ) from being deformed.
