A structure formed by placing a plurality of
metal sheets (10, 20) one on another in a sheet-thickness direction, the plurality of
metal sheets (10, 20) each having an
electrically conductive base material covered with an insulating
coating, the structure including: a protrusion (11) provided on a first
metal sheet (10) of the plurality of metal sheets (10, 20) that are adjacent to each other and are fastened together with a screw (51), the protrusion protruding toward a second
metal sheet (20); an elastically deformable portion (12) provided on the
metal sheet (10) in such a manner that the elastically deformable portion (12) surrounds the protrusion (11), the elastically deformable portion (12) being elastically deformable at the time of the fastening with the screw (51); a protrusion (21) disposed on the
metal sheet (20) in such a manner that the protrusion (21) protrudes toward the metal sheet (10), and crosses the protrusion (11); and an elastically deformable portion (22) provided on the metal sheet (20) in such a manner that the elastically deformable portion (22) surrounds the protrusion (21), the elastically deformable portion (22) being elastically deformable at the time of the fastening with the screw (51). The end of the first protrusion (11) and the end of the second protrusion (21) contact each other at the time of the fastening with the screw (51).
