ABSTRACT:
A connecting structure for connecting a covered wire to a terminal is provided. The connecting structure includes a first member and a second member to be laid on the first member. In arrangement, the terminal is interposed between the first member and the second member. The covered wire having core lines covered with an insulating cover is disposed on the terminal. In order to spread the core lines on the terminal, the first member is provided with a projection which extends perpendicular to a direction of the core lines of the covered wire. In manufacturing, the insulating cover is molten by vibrating the second member on the covered wire by ultrasonic waves. Consequently, the core lines are forcibly brought into contact with an end of the projection having a small frictional resistance. Thus, the core lines of the covered wire can be uniformly spread to increase contact area between the core lines and the terminal.
