PRODUCTION METHOD FOR BAND-SHAPED METAL WIRE MEMBER COMPRISING JOINT, PRODUCTION METHOD FOR TERMINAL-EQUIPPED BAND-SHAPED METAL WIRE MEMBER, MOLD, AND BAND-SHAPED METAL WIRE MEMBER COMPRISING JOINT

摘要

The purpose of the present invention is to make it possible to stably fit a band-shaped metal wire member into a mold. In this production method for a band-shaped metal wire member comprising a joint, a mold provided with the following is prepared: a lower mold in which a recessed section is formed; and an upper mold in which a protruding section is formed and said protruding section can be arranged within the recessed section so as to block the space in an upper part within the recessed section. The inner surface of the recessed section comprises a central mold surface formed on the bottom of the recessed section in the center in the width direction and a pair of curved guide mold surfaces that are connected to both sides of the central mold surface and that curve so as to protrude on the exterior. The central mold surface is formed as a flat surface or as a surface having a more gentle curve than the pair of curved guide mold surfaces. A part to be joined in a band-shaped metal wire member is folded in two and arranged in the recessed section, and metal wires are joined together between the protruding section and the recessed section.
