To dispense with a cover tape, and to easily take out an article by providing a deviation preventing means and/or a take-out facilitating means in a carrier tape formed of a shape memory resin which is a structure to be used for storage and conveyance of small articles such as electronic parts.

A recessed portion 11 to store an article 12 is formed in a shape memory resin structure, and the shape of the recessed portion 11 is memorized. After the article 12 is stored in the recessed portion 11, a recessed shape 13 having a projecting portion 14 is formed in an opening part through the pressing using, for example, a die. The recessed shape 13 having the projecting portion 14 is formed at the temperature not higher than the glass transformation point of the shape memory resin. The structure can be restored to the shape of the recessed portion 11 without any original projecting portion when heated by forming the resin at the temperature not higher than the glass transformation point. When the article 12 is taken out (chipped), the holding condition of the article 12 is released; and then, the article 12 is taken out.
