<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To fix a terminal at a low cost, with ease, and in stable quality.SOLUTION: A terminal fixing structure includes a terminal 10 which is arranged in a state being inserted into a through hole 8 formed at a case 4, and a gasket 30 which is arranged between an inner peripheral surface of the through hole 8 and the terminal 10, inside the through hole 8. The terminal 10 includes a gasket compression part 18 which is positioned on an inner peripheral surface of the through hole 8 to compress the gasket 30, a taper part 14 which is continued to the gasket compression part 18 and gradually becomes smaller in terms of diameter as being separated from the case 4, and a plastic deformation part 15 which is continued to the taper part 14 and is plastic-deformed by an external force applied along axial direction of the terminal 10. The gasket compression part 18 expands toward the inner peripheral surface of the through hole 8 by the external force applied at the time of plastic deformation of the plastic deformation part 15.</p> |
