Abstract
A case comprised of a metal-resin composite body having a connector including a terminal fitting, the connector being integrated with an opening of a wall of a case main body so that the connector sandwiches an edge of the wall. The connector is comprised of a base resin formed by injection molding so as to sandwich the wall. A separately-manufactured connector is welded to the base resin. Forming the base resin on the case main body provides a less complicated configuration of the case compared to a case where a connector is formed directly to the case main body.
