Abstract
There is provided an FPC for mounting components with an improved workability of fitting into other components. Both a second bend (23) and a third bend (25) are provided with a copper foil(s) (15). The copper foil (15) provided at each bend functions as a core material to be plastically transformed when the respective bends (23, 25) are formed and to prevent an FPC (9) from rebounding due to elastic recovery, thereby enabling the bends to retain their shape as desired. As shown in the figure, in case there are a plurality of bends, the copper foil (15) extends to be disposed at all the bends, thereby avoiding the deterioration in workability of assembly, which is invited due to the FPC (9) rebounding. Further, after assembling the FPC (9), a cover portion (20) does not rebound with time within the other components and does not shift off a predetermined position.
