In the above embodiment, the case where the protrusion 9 is provided facing the opening 8a of the holding piece 8 has been described as an example, but it may be provided integrally with both holding pieces 8. Further, although the connection terminal and the tab terminal are connected by welding in the above-mentioned embodiment, the welding area needs to be increased because the current capacity during welding energization is large. Therefore, the opening 1a of the main body 1 is Had to be big. However, when such a condition is not present, for example, when welding is not performed and it is simply used as a connection terminal, the opening 1a may be narrower. Furthermore, although the case where the protrusion 9 is provided on the main body 1 by cutting and raising is shown, the protrusion may be formed by other means.
