In the case of the extrusion molding method described above, since a product having a closed cross-sectional shape such as a square tube can be manufactured, a frame having excellent rigidity can be obtained. Due to the characteristics, the shape is linear. Therefore, in order to use it as a frame to support the curved plate-shaped parts such as the bonnet, a separate mounting member must be interposed, resulting in an increase in the number of parts and complication of assembly. The applicable areas are also limited. On the other hand, by means of providing ribs etc. when press-molding a curved plate-shaped part, the shape of the molded product becomes an open cross-section due to the characteristics of the press-molding method, making it difficult to obtain sufficient rigidity and to obtain sufficient rigidity. The wall thickness must be increased.
