Claims8
A resistive element comprising:
- a main body portion;
- and
- first and second terminal portions provided at opposite ends of the main body portion, wherein
- at least one side portion of the main body portion has a protruding portion.
A method for manufacturing a resistive element, the resistive element including a main body portion, first and second terminal portions provided at opposite ends of the main body portion, and a protruding portion provided at least on one side portion of the main body portion, the method comprising:
- preparing a sheet-like or hoop-like plate-shaped body made of a metal material;
- forming a hole for defining a peripheral shape of the terminal portions in the plate-shaped body, and forming a first coupled portion that is coupled to the plate-shaped body on a side portion of the main body portion;
- and
- cutting the main body portion at the first coupled portion, thereby forming the protruding portion on the side portion of the main body portion.
