A sheet-member stacked structure produced by a method including one or more of the following steps: stacking lead frames on each other, and stacking sheet members of one
lead frame on sheet members of another or other
lead frame or frames, each
lead frame including a frame portion, the sheet members, first groups of bridge portions, and second groups of bridge portions each group of which connect two opposite sides of a corresponding one of the sheet members, to an inner
peripheral portion of the frame portion and one of two opposite sides of its adjacent sheet member, or to respective one sides of its two adjacent sheet members; stacking sheet members on each other via an
adhesive, a contact surface of one of each pair of adjacent sheet members having a relief groove formed along a location where the
adhesive is applied, each of the stacked sheet members except for one of the two opposite, outermost sheet members having a relief hole communicating with the relief groove and formed through a thickness of the each sheet member, at least a portion of the relief hole of the other outermost sheet member having a cross-section area greater than a cross-section area of the relief hole of each of the other sheet members; and stacking sheet members on each other, the sheet members including a liquid-chamber sheet member formed of a rolled
metal sheet and having liquid chambers arranged, separately from each other, in a direction perpendicular to a direction of rolling of the
metal sheet.
