Abstract

A method is provided for manufacturing a holder which has a holding part and a connector part. The holding part has an elastic body holding a built-in electronic part in a position. The method steps include pouring a liquid polymer mixed with a magnetic electric conductor into a mold for forming the holder. A magnetic force is applied to a desired position in the mold to orient the magnetic electric conductor to form a connector pattern of the connector part with the magnetic force. A holding part is molded integrally with the connector part to provide a one piece integral structure by crosslinking the liquid polymer. The magnetic electric conductor may be linked together by a force of a magnetic field. This defines a conductive passage in the connector part.
