The first and second superconducting wires 1 and 4 of this embodiment
The connection method is almost the same as the conventional one, but since the sleeve 7 is reinforced by the sleeve reinforcing member 10, the sleeve 7 is prevented from being stretched and deformed when being pressed with a crimping jig. That is, the elongation deformation of the sleeve 7 during pressing is smaller than that of the conventional case under the same pressure. In other words,
If the same amount of elongation deformation as before is allowed, in the case of this example, pressing can be performed at a higher pressure than before,
Therefore, each of the superconducting filaments 3 and 6 can be sufficiently crimped and bonded, and the critical current at the connection portion becomes high.
