Abstract

An alignment apparatus is configured to include an alignment mechanism. At least one of first legs or second legs of electric conductors are retained so as to be aligned in an arcuate shape or a circular shape by a plurality of holders that make up the alignment mechanism. Thereafter, the plurality of holders are rotated. Accordingly, the electric conductors, which are aligned in an arcuate or circular shape, are rotated and arranged on the same circumference. In other words, the electric conductors are aligned in an annular shape.
