Claim:
1. A method of manufacturing a connection structural body where an insulated wire formed by covering a conductor with an insulating cover and provided with a wire tip formed by exposing the conductor on a distal end side by peeling off the insulating cover on the distal end side and a crimp terminal provided with a closed-barrel-type pressure-bonding section which allows the pressure-bonding connection between the pressure-bonding section and the wire tip are connected to each other by pressure-bonding the wire tip by the pressure-bonding section, the method comprising: a cover stripping step of peeling off the insulating cover on the distal end side of the insulated wire arranged at a predetermined position to form the wire tip; a wire insertion step of inserting at least the wire tip of the insulated wire into the pressure-bonding section whose end is sealed of the crimp terminal; and a pressure-bonding step of pressure-bonding and connecting the pressure-bonding section into which the wire tip is inserted, the pressure-bonding section includes in order from a rear side of the pressure-bonding section to a front side of the pressure-bonding section, a cover pressure-bonding section, a conductor pressure-bonding section, and a sealing portion, the sealing portion being formed by deforming a front end portion of the sealing portion in front of the conductor pressure-bonding section in such a manner that the front end portion is pressed down and closed, the cover stripping step, the wire insertion step, and the pressure-bonding step being performed in the above order, wherein an inspection step of inspecting at least one inspection object state out of a cover stripping state of the insulating cover on the distal end side of the insulated wire, a wiring state of the conductor at the wire tip, an insertion state of the wire tip inserted into the pressure-bonding section, and a pressure-bonded state of the pressure-bonding section to the wire tip is performed after the pressure bonding step, after the cover stripping step is finished, a marking step is performed using a laser where a marking is formed on a covered tip end portion of the insulating cover at a predetermined distance from a conductor tip end surface at which the wire is stripped and corresponding to an insertion length of the wire tip into the pressure-bonding section, a first marking inspection step of inspecting at least the marking formed on the insulating cover is performed between the marking step and the wire insertion step, the pressure-bonded state of the pressure-bonding section to the wire tip is set as the inspection object state, and a second marking inspection step of inspecting the pressure-bonded state of the pressure-bonding section to the wire tip using the marking is set as the inspection step, the second marking inspection step further including determining whether or not an insertion amount of the wire tip is appropriate by using the marking, and the first marking inspection step and the second marking inspection step are performed using a same inspection means.
