However, in the above-mentioned conventional metal carrier for a catalytic converter, since the flat portions facing each other are present on the side surfaces, the outer cylinder expands outward due to heat and internal pressure, and due to this bulge. There was a problem that internal cells were cut off. Further, in a conventional metal carrier for a catalytic converter, for example, as described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 6-30418, in order to prevent deformation of the metal carrier,
A pair of strip-shaped reinforcing plates along the circumferential direction are attached to the outer skin in the minor axis direction on both sides of the cylindrical container.However, if the outer circumference is large and the layout of the installation location is strict, it may be mounted on the vehicle. There was a problem that it could not be done. Further, in the conventional metal carrier for a catalytic converter, it is formed by diffusion bonding by applying a reduction ratio (compression ratio), but the compression ratio is weak in the flat portions of the side surfaces facing each other, and it is difficult to bond them. There was a point.
