PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To bend a male terminal metal fitting without using any jig. SOLUTION: Bending position setting plates (bending position setting members) 14L, 14S are designed to envelop male terminal metal fittings 20L, 20S, and include low bending rigidity portions 16 corresponding to portions 23 to be bent of the male terminal metal fittings 20L, 20S and bending restricting portions 17F, 17R for restricting deformation of the male terminal metal fittings 20L, 20S at positions other than the low bending rigidity portions 16. When the tips of the bending position setting plates 14L, 14S are bent by a hand, only the low bending rigidity portions 16 are bent without any deformation at the bending restricting portions 17F, 17R. That is, only the portions 23 to be bent are securely bent and deformed at the male terminal metal fittings 20L, 20S, thereby forming substrate attaching portions 22 of a predetermined dimension. Without using any jig, it is possible to prevent any damage on the male terminal metal fittings 20L, 20S by a jig. |
