Abstract
A transition portion () has a surface () that is formed extending upward. The surface () is a surface formed extending upward so as to face a bottom portion (). Specifically, the transition portion () has a cross-sectional shape in which upper edge portions of side portions () are bent inward. As the surface () approaches a main terminal body () from a sealing portion (), the surface () gradually separates away from the bottom portion () and the edge portions of the surface () gradually open outward and connect to side portions () of the main terminal body (). The surface () is formed so as to be curved upward, in a cross-section, from the end portion of the sealing portion ().
