Description

本発明は、消音器に関する。   The present invention relates to a silencer.

自動車用の排気システムは、排気流路に設けられた消音器により、内燃機関から排出された排ガスによる騒音を抑制する。この種の消音器には、内燃機関からの熱衝撃に耐え得る剛性や強度が求められる。そこで、筒状に形成されたシェルの内周面の全周に沿った補強部材を設け、シェルの剛性及び強度を向上させる消音器が提案されている(特許文献1参照)。   The exhaust system for a motor vehicle suppresses the noise due to the exhaust gas discharged from the internal combustion engine by the silencer provided in the exhaust passage. This type of silencer is required to have rigidity and strength that can withstand thermal shock from the internal combustion engine. Then, the silencer which provides the reinforcement member in alignment with the perimeter of the inner peripheral surface of the shell formed cylindrically, and improves the rigidity and intensity | strength of a shell is proposed (refer patent document 1).

特開2000−213328号公報JP, 2000-213328, A

しかしながら、特許文献1に記載の消音器では、補強部材を設けたことにより、消音器の材料のコスト及び質量が増加してしまう問題があった。
本発明は、補強部材によってシェルの剛性及び強度を向上させつつ、シェルの内周面の全周に沿った補強部材を備えた消音器と比較して、材料のコスト及び質量の増加を抑制することが可能な消音器の提供を目的としている。
However, in the silencer described in Patent Document 1, there is a problem that the cost and the mass of the material of the silencer increase because the reinforcing member is provided.
The present invention suppresses the increase in cost and mass of material as compared to a silencer provided with reinforcing members along the entire circumference of the inner circumferential surface of the shell while improving the rigidity and strength of the shell by means of the reinforcing members. The purpose is to provide a silencer that can be

本発明の一側面は、消音器であって、シェルと、補強部材と、を備える。シェルは、筒状に形成される。補強部材は、シェルの内周面に沿ってシェルを内部から補強するように配置される。具体的には、補強部材の外周面には、内周面に対して当接する位置で対向する当接面と、内周面に対して離間する位置で対向する離間面と、が形成される。内周面における当接面と対向する部分は、シェルの軸方向から見た内周面の形状において曲率半径が最大となる部分を含む。内周面における離間面と対向する部分は、シェルの軸方向から見た内周面の形状において曲率半径が最小となる部分を含む。   One aspect of the present invention is a silencer, comprising a shell and a reinforcing member. The shell is formed in a tubular shape. The reinforcing member is arranged to internally reinforce the shell along the inner circumferential surface of the shell. Specifically, on the outer peripheral surface of the reinforcing member, an abutting surface opposed at a position abutting against the inner peripheral surface and a separating surface opposed at a position separated from the inner peripheral surface are formed. . The portion of the inner peripheral surface facing the contact surface includes the portion where the radius of curvature is the largest in the shape of the inner peripheral surface viewed from the axial direction of the shell. The portion of the inner peripheral surface opposite to the separation surface includes a portion where the radius of curvature is the smallest in the shape of the inner peripheral surface viewed from the axial direction of the shell.

このような構成によれば、補強部材の外周面の一部に、シェルの内周面に対して離間している箇所(離間面)が形成されるため、補強部材の外周面をシェルの内周面の全周に渡って当接させる場合と比較して、補強部材をより少ない材料で形成することができる。したがって、補強部材によってシェルの剛性及び強度を向上させつつ、材料のコスト及び質量の増加を抑制した消音器の提供が可能となる。   According to such a configuration, a part (separating surface) spaced apart from the inner peripheral surface of the shell is formed in a part of the outer peripheral surface of the reinforcing member. The reinforcing member can be formed of less material as compared with the case where the entire circumferential surface is in contact. Therefore, it is possible to provide a silencer in which the increase in cost and mass of the material is suppressed while the rigidity and strength of the shell are improved by the reinforcing member.

上記構成において、補強部材における離間面が平面であってもよい。このような構成によれば、離間面が湾曲している場合と比較して、補強部材をより少ない材料で形成することができる。   In the above configuration, the separation surface of the reinforcing member may be flat. According to such a configuration, it is possible to form the reinforcing member with less material as compared with the case where the separation surface is curved.

以下、本発明の例示的な実施形態について図面を参照しながら説明する。
[1.構成]
図1、図2及び図3に示す消音器100は、車両に搭載された内燃機関(図示せず)から排出される排ガスの排気流路の一部を構成するものであり、シェル部材1と、前端板12と、後端板13と、インレットパイプ2と、アウトレットパイプ3と、前方仕切板4と、後方仕切板5と、補強部材61と、を備える。なお、図2及び図3では、シェル部材1及び補強部材61のみが示されており、インレットパイプ2等の図示は省略されている。
Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[1. Constitution]
The silencer 100 shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 constitutes a part of an exhaust flow path of exhaust gas discharged from an internal combustion engine (not shown) mounted on a vehicle, and A front end plate 12, a rear end plate 13, an inlet pipe 2, an outlet pipe 3, a front partition 4, a rear partition 5, and a reinforcing member 61. In addition, in FIG.2 and FIG.3, only the shell member 1 and the reinforcement member 61 are shown, and illustration of the inlet pipe 2 grade | etc., Is abbreviate | omitted.

シェル部材1は、楕円筒状に形成され、その両端開口部が前端板12と後端板13とにより閉塞されている。シェル部材1の内部は、前方仕切板4及び後方仕切板5により第1室111、第2室112及び第3室113に区画されている。   The shell member 1 is formed in an elliptical cylindrical shape, and both end openings are closed by the front end plate 12 and the rear end plate 13. The inside of the shell member 1 is divided into a first chamber 111, a second chamber 112 and a third chamber 113 by the front partition 4 and the rear partition 5.

インレットパイプ2は、前端板12、前方仕切板4、補強部材61及び後方仕切板5にそれぞれ形成された貫通孔に挿通される。インレットパイプ2は、その下流側端部が第3室113に開口する。インレットパイプ2には、内燃機関からの排ガスが導入される。   The inlet pipe 2 is inserted into through holes respectively formed in the front end plate 12, the front partition 4, the reinforcing member 61 and the rear partition 5. The downstream end of the inlet pipe 2 opens into the third chamber 113. Exhaust gas from the internal combustion engine is introduced into the inlet pipe 2.

アウトレットパイプ3は、排ガスを車両外部へ排出する図示しないテールパイプに接続されている。アウトレットパイプ3は、前方仕切板4、補強部材61、後方仕切板5及び後端板13にそれぞれ形成された貫通孔に挿通される。アウトレットパイプ3は、その上流側端部が第1室111に開口する。   The outlet pipe 3 is connected to a tail pipe (not shown) that discharges the exhaust gas to the outside of the vehicle. The outlet pipe 3 is inserted into through holes respectively formed in the front partition 4, the reinforcing member 61, the rear partition 5 and the rear end 13. The upstream end of the outlet pipe 3 opens into the first chamber 111.

補強部材61は、シェル部材1の内周面1aに沿ってシェル部材1を内部から補強するように配置される。具体的には、補強部材61は、筒状部610と、環状板部611と、を備える。筒状部610は、シェル部材1の内周面1aと対向する外周面を形成する筒状の部分である。環状板部611は、筒状部610の両端開口部のうちの一方(この例では前方仕切板4側)から筒状部610の軸側(換言すればシェル部材1の軸側)へ、その軸に対して垂直に延びる板状の部分であって、全体として概略一定幅の環状に形成されている。筒状部610により形成される補強部材61の外周面には、当接面612と、離間面613と、が形成されている。当接面612は、シェル部材1の内周面1aに対して当接する位置で対向する面であり、対向する内周面1aと同一形状の外周面を形成し、シェル部材1とスポット溶接等で接合されている。離間面613は、シェル部材1の軸方向と平行に、内周面1aに対して離間する位置で対向する面であり、筒状部610の軸方向(換言すればシェル部材1の軸方向)から見て、シェル部材1の内周面に沿って互いに隣り合う当接面612の端部同士を直線状に連結する平面を形成する。   The reinforcing member 61 is arranged along the inner circumferential surface 1 a of the shell member 1 so as to reinforce the shell member 1 from the inside. Specifically, the reinforcing member 61 includes a cylindrical portion 610 and an annular plate portion 611. The cylindrical portion 610 is a cylindrical portion that forms an outer peripheral surface facing the inner peripheral surface 1 a of the shell member 1. The annular plate portion 611 extends from one of the two end openings of the cylindrical portion 610 (in this example, the front partition 4 side) to the shaft side of the cylindrical portion 610 (in other words, the axial side of the shell member 1) It is a plate-like portion extending perpendicularly to the axis, and is formed in an annular shape having a substantially constant width as a whole. A contact surface 612 and a separation surface 613 are formed on the outer peripheral surface of the reinforcing member 61 formed by the cylindrical portion 610. The contact surface 612 is a surface opposed to the inner peripheral surface 1a of the shell member 1 at a position where it abuts, and forms an outer peripheral surface having the same shape as the opposed inner peripheral surface 1a. It is joined by. The separation surface 613 is a surface facing in parallel to the axial direction of the shell member 1 and facing the inner circumferential surface 1a at a position separated from the inner circumferential surface 1a, and the axial direction of the cylindrical portion 610 As viewed from the above, a flat surface is formed which linearly connects the end portions of the abutting surfaces 612 adjacent to each other along the inner peripheral surface of the shell member 1.

シェル部材1の内周面1aにおける当接面612と対向する部分である内周当接部Aは、シェル部材1の軸方向から見た内周面1aの形状(この例では楕円形状)において曲率半径が最大の最大曲率半径r1となる部分を含む。シェル部材1の内周面1aにおける離間面613と対向する部分である内周離間部Bは、シェル部材1の軸方向から見た内周面1aの形状において曲率半径が最小の最小曲率半径r2となる部分を含む。   The inner peripheral contact portion A, which is a portion facing the contact surface 612 in the inner peripheral surface 1a of the shell member 1, has a shape (elliptical shape in this example) of the inner peripheral surface 1a viewed from the axial direction of the shell member 1 It includes a portion where the curvature radius is the largest maximum curvature radius r1. An inner peripheral separation portion B which is a portion facing the separation surface 613 in the inner peripheral surface 1a of the shell member 1 has a minimum curvature radius r2 with the smallest curvature radius in the shape of the inner peripheral surface 1a viewed from the axial direction of the shell member 1 Including the part to be

つまり、補強部材61は、シェル部材1の内周面1aの全周に渡って当接するのではなく、全周のうちの一部に当接する。具体的には、補強部材61は、シェル部材1の内周面1aにおいて比較的曲率半径の大きい範囲に当接し、シェル部材1の内周面1aにおいて比較的曲率半径の小さい範囲から離間する形状である。この例では、補強部材61には、シェル部材1の内周面1aのうち、その軸方向から見て楕円の短軸と交わる2点のそれぞれを含む2つの部分(2つの内周当接部A)に対向する2つの当接面612と、楕円の長軸と交わる2点のそれぞれを含む2つの部分(2つの内周離間部B)に対向する2つの離間面613と、が形成されている。   That is, the reinforcing member 61 is not in contact with the entire circumference of the inner peripheral surface 1 a of the shell member 1 but is in contact with a part of the entire circumference. Specifically, the reinforcing member 61 is in contact with a range having a relatively large radius of curvature on the inner circumferential surface 1 a of the shell member 1 and is separated from the range having a relatively small radius of curvature on the inner circumferential surface 1 a of the shell member 1 It is. In this example, in the reinforcing member 61, two portions (two inner circumferential contact portions) of the inner circumferential surface 1a of the shell member 1 including two points intersecting with the minor axis of the ellipse when viewed from the axial direction A) two abutting surfaces 612 opposed to each other, and two separated surfaces 613 opposed to two portions (two inner circumferential separated portions B) including each of two points intersecting the long axis of the ellipse ing.

次に、補強部材61の製造方法について説明する。
図4(A)に示すように、補強部材61は、1枚の板材61aから形成される。板材61aは、単一の金属板(例えばステンレス製の板)で形成されている。まず、板材61aの縁部を立ち上げる加工(例えば絞り加工)が行われる。具体的には、図4(B)に示すように、板材61aに垂直な方向に板材61aの縁部全体が立ち上げられ、箱材61bが形成される。立ち上げられた箱材61bの縁部の外周面は、筒状部610の外周面、すなわち当接面612及び離間面613となる。なお、箱材61bには、当接面612及び離間面613に囲まれた平面部61cが形成される。
Next, a method of manufacturing the reinforcing member 61 will be described.
As shown to FIG. 4 (A), the reinforcement member 61 is formed from the board | plate material 61a of 1 sheet. The plate 61a is formed of a single metal plate (for example, a plate made of stainless steel). First, processing (for example, drawing processing) is performed to raise the edge of the plate 61a. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4B, the entire edge portion of the plate 61a is raised in the direction perpendicular to the plate 61a, and the box 61b is formed. The outer peripheral surface of the edge portion of the raised box member 61 b is the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 610, that is, the contact surface 612 and the separation surface 613. In addition, the flat part 61c enclosed by the contact surface 612 and the separation surface 613 is formed in the box material 61b.

続いて、図4(C)に示すように、箱材61bの平面部61cの中央が、当接面612及び離間面613の内周を縮小した形状に打ち抜かれ、残された平面部61cによって環状板部611が形成される。このようにして、補強部材61が完成する。   Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 4C, the center of the flat portion 61c of the box member 61b is punched into a shape in which the inner circumferences of the contact surface 612 and the separation surface 613 are reduced, and left by the flat portion 61c. An annular plate portion 611 is formed. Thus, the reinforcing member 61 is completed.

[2.効果]
以上詳述した本実施形態によれば、以下の効果が得られる。
(1a)本実施形態の消音器100では、補強部材61の外周面を形成する筒状部610に、シェル部材1の内周面1aに対して当接する位置で対向する当接面612と、内周面1aに対して離間する位置で対向する離間面613と、が形成される。内周面1aにおける当接面612と対向する内周当接部Aは、シェル部材1の軸方向から見た内周面1aの形状において曲率半径が最大となる最大曲率半径r1を含む。内周面1aにおける離間面613と対向する内周離間部Bは、シェル部材1の軸方向から見た内周面1aの形状において曲率半径が最小となる最小曲率半径r2を含む。
[2. effect]
According to the embodiment described above, the following effects can be obtained.
(1a) In the silencer 100 of the present embodiment, an abutment surface 612 opposed to the cylindrical portion 610 forming the outer circumferential surface of the reinforcing member 61 at a position abutted against the inner circumferential surface 1 a of the shell member 1; An opposing separation surface 613 is formed at a position away from the inner circumferential surface 1 a. The inner peripheral contact portion A facing the contact surface 612 in the inner peripheral surface 1a includes the maximum curvature radius r1 at which the curvature radius is maximum in the shape of the inner peripheral surface 1a viewed from the axial direction of the shell member 1. The inner circumferential spaced portion B opposed to the spaced apart surface 613 in the inner circumferential surface 1 a includes the minimum radius of curvature r 2 at which the radius of curvature is minimum in the shape of the inner circumferential surface 1 a viewed from the axial direction of the shell member 1.

このような構成によれば、補強部材61の筒状部610の一部に、シェル部材1の内周面1aに対して離間している離間面613が形成されるため、補強部材61の筒状部610をシェル部材1の内周面1aの全周に渡って当接させる場合と比較して、補強部材61をより少ない材料によって形成することができる。したがって、補強部材61によってシェル部材1の剛性及び強度を向上させつつ、材料のコスト及び質量の増加を抑制した消音器100の提供が可能となる。   According to such a configuration, the separation surface 613 which is separated from the inner peripheral surface 1 a of the shell member 1 is formed in a part of the cylindrical portion 610 of the reinforcement member 61. The reinforcing member 61 can be formed of a smaller amount of material as compared with the case where the protuberance 610 abuts the entire circumference of the inner circumferential surface 1 a of the shell member 1. Therefore, it is possible to provide the silencer 100 in which the increase in the cost and the mass of the material is suppressed while improving the rigidity and the strength of the shell member 1 by the reinforcing member 61.

(1b)補強部材61における離間面613は、平面を形成する。具体的には、当該平面は、筒状部610の軸方向から見て、シェル部材1の内周面に沿って互いに隣り合う当接面612の端部同士を直線状に連結する形状である。このような構成によれば、離間面613が湾曲している場合と比較して、補強部材61をより少ない材料によって形成することができる。   (1b) The separation surface 613 of the reinforcing member 61 forms a flat surface. Specifically, the flat surface has a shape that linearly connects the end portions of the contact surfaces 612 adjacent to each other along the inner peripheral surface of the shell member 1 when viewed from the axial direction of the cylindrical portion 610. . According to such a configuration, it is possible to form the reinforcing member 61 with a smaller amount of material as compared to the case where the separation surface 613 is curved.

[3.比較例との対比]
以上のような効果について、図5に示す比較例の消音器200と対比しつつ説明する。比較例の消音器200は、実施形態の消音器100と比較すると、図2等に示す形状の補強部材61に代えて、図5に示す形状の補強部材62を備える点で相違する。その他、基本的な構成は実施形態と同様であり、実施形態と共通する構成については、同一符号を用いて説明を省略する。
[3. Contrast with Comparative Example]
The effects as described above will be described in comparison with the silencer 200 of the comparative example shown in FIG. The silencer 200 of the comparative example is different from the silencer 100 of the embodiment in that a reinforcing member 62 having a shape shown in FIG. 5 is provided instead of the reinforcing member 61 having a shape shown in FIG. The other basic configuration is the same as that of the embodiment, and the description of the configuration common to the embodiment will be omitted using the same reference numerals.

比較例の補強部材62は、筒状部及び環状板部を備える点は実施形態の補強部材61と同様であるが、筒状部により形成される外周面の全域が、対向するシェル部材1の内周面1aと同一形状である点で上記実施形態と相違する。このため、比較例の補強部材62の外周面は、シェル部材1の内周面1aに対してその全周に渡って当接する。つまり、比較例の補強部材62の外周面には、当接面のみが形成され、離間面は形成されない。   The reinforcing member 62 of the comparative example is the same as the reinforcing member 61 of the embodiment in that the reinforcing member 62 of the comparative example includes the cylindrical portion and the annular plate portion, but the entire outer peripheral surface formed by the cylindrical portion It differs from the above embodiment in that it has the same shape as the inner circumferential surface 1a. For this reason, the outer circumferential surface of the reinforcing member 62 of the comparative example abuts on the inner circumferential surface 1 a of the shell member 1 over the entire circumference thereof. That is, only the contact surface is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the reinforcing member 62 of the comparative example, and the separation surface is not formed.

これに対し、実施形態の補強部材61の外周面には、シェル部材1の内周面1aに対して離間している離間面613が形成されている。具体的には、実施形態の補強部材61の筒状部610は、比較例の補強部材62の筒状部よりも周方向の長さが短い。したがって、実施形態の構成によれば、補強部材61をより少ない材料によって形成することができる。   On the other hand, on the outer peripheral surface of the reinforcing member 61 of the embodiment, a separation surface 613 which is separated from the inner peripheral surface 1 a of the shell member 1 is formed. Specifically, the cylindrical portion 610 of the reinforcing member 61 of the embodiment has a circumferential length shorter than that of the cylindrical portion of the reinforcing member 62 of the comparative example. Therefore, according to the configuration of the embodiment, the reinforcing member 61 can be formed of less material.

[4.他の実施形態]
以上、本発明の実施形態について説明したが、本発明は、上記実施形態に限定されることなく、種々の形態を取り得ることは言うまでもない。
[4. Other embodiments]
As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, it can not be overemphasized that this invention can take a various form, without being limited to the said embodiment.

(2a)上記実施形態では、軸方向から見た内周面1aの形状が楕円形状のシェル部材1を例示したが、シェル部材はこのような形状に限定されるものではない。シェル部材は、軸方向から見た内周面の形状が少なくとも2種類の曲率半径を有する形状であればよく、例えば卵形状でもよい。また、シェル部材の軸方向から見た内周面の形状が全周に渡って曲線状でなくてもよく、例えば一部が直線状となっていてもよい。なお、この場合、直線状の部分の曲率半径は無限大とする。   (2a) In the above embodiment, the shell member 1 in which the shape of the inner circumferential surface 1a viewed from the axial direction is an elliptical shape is exemplified, but the shell member is not limited to such a shape. The shell member may have any shape as long as the shape of the inner peripheral surface viewed from the axial direction has at least two types of curvature radius, and may be, for example, an egg shape. Moreover, the shape of the inner peripheral surface seen from the axial direction of a shell member may not be curvilinear over the perimeter, for example, one part may be linear. In this case, the curvature radius of the linear portion is infinite.

(2b)上記実施形態では、シェル部材1の内周面1aに対して当接する位置で対向する面である当接面612は、その全面が内周面1aに対して厳密に接触している必要はない。例えば、当接面612と内周面1aとの間に意図的な空間が設けられていない構成では、当接面612と内周面1aとが当接している。   (2b) In the above embodiment, the entire surface of the abutting surface 612, which is the surface opposed to the position in contact with the inner peripheral surface 1a of the shell member 1, is strictly in contact with the inner peripheral surface 1a. There is no need. For example, in a configuration in which an intentional space is not provided between the contact surface 612 and the inner circumferential surface 1a, the contact surface 612 and the inner circumferential surface 1a are in contact.

(2c)上記実施形態では、離間面613が、シェル部材1の軸方向と平行に、内周面1aに対して離間する位置で対向する面である構成を例示したが、これに限定されるものではなく、離間面は、シェル部材の軸方向と平行でなくてもよい。   (2c) In the above embodiment, the configuration in which the separation surface 613 is a surface facing in parallel to the axial direction of the shell member 1 at a position away from the inner circumferential surface 1a is exemplified. Instead, the separation surface may not be parallel to the axial direction of the shell member.

(2d)上記実施形態では、補強部材61の製造方法として、板材61aを立ち上げる加工及び打ち抜く加工によって補強部材61を形成する製造方法を例示したが、これに限定されるものではない。   (2d) In the above embodiment, as the method of manufacturing the reinforcing member 61, the manufacturing method of forming the reinforcing member 61 by work of raising the plate member 61a and punching is exemplified, but it is not limited thereto.

例えば、図6(A)、図6(B)及び図6(C)に示す変形例では、曲げ加工によって補強部材63を形成する。
図6(A)に示すように、変形例における補強部材63は、1枚の板材63aから形成される。板材63aは、単一の金属板(例えばステンレス製の板)で形成されている。
For example, in the modification shown in FIG. 6 (A), FIG. 6 (B) and FIG. 6 (C), the reinforcing member 63 is formed by bending.
As shown to FIG. 6 (A), the reinforcement member 63 in a modification is formed from the board | plate material 63a of 1 sheet. The plate member 63a is formed of a single metal plate (for example, a plate made of stainless steel).

まず、板材63aを曲げる加工が行われる。具体的には、図6(B)に示すように、板材63aの一部が残りの部分に対して垂直に折り曲げられることにより、L型アングル63bが形成される。なお、L型アングル63bには、第1の板部63cと、第1の板部63cと垂直な第2の板部63dと、が形成される。   First, the plate 63a is bent. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6B, the L-shaped angle 63b is formed by bending a part of the plate member 63a perpendicularly to the remaining part. The L-shaped angle 63b is formed with a first plate portion 63c and a second plate portion 63d perpendicular to the first plate portion 63c.

続いて、図6(C)に示すように、L型アングル63bが環状に曲げられ、上記実施形態と同様の形状の補強部材63が形成される。具体的には、L型アングル63bの第1の板部63cが筒状部630を形成し、第2の板部63dが環状板部631を形成するように、L型アングル63bの3箇所が曲げられるとともに当接面632が曲面となるように曲げられる。つまり、L型アングル63bが曲げられることにより、第1の板部63cの外周面が、2つの当接面632及び2つの離間面633となり、第2の板部63dが環状板部631となる。なお、L型アングル63bの両端部は、当接面632と離間面633とのそれぞれの終端部として、互いに当接する。このようにして、補強部材63が完成する。   Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 6C, the L-shaped angle 63b is bent in an annular shape, and a reinforcing member 63 having the same shape as that of the above embodiment is formed. Specifically, three portions of the L-shaped angle 63 b are formed such that the first plate portion 63 c of the L-shaped angle 63 b forms the cylindrical portion 630 and the second plate portion 63 d forms the annular plate portion 631. It is bent so that the contact surface 632 is curved. That is, when the L-shaped angle 63 b is bent, the outer peripheral surface of the first plate portion 63 c becomes the two contact surfaces 632 and the two separation surfaces 633, and the second plate portion 63 d becomes the annular plate portion 631. . The end portions of the L-shaped angle 63 b abut each other as the respective end portions of the contact surface 632 and the separation surface 633. Thus, the reinforcing member 63 is completed.

このような製造方法によれば、板材63aの曲げ加工のみによって補強部材63が形成されるため、板材を打ち抜く必要がなくなり、材料をスクラップにすることなく、補強部材63を形成する材料の歩留まりを向上させることができる。なお、補強部材63においてL型アングル63bの両端部が互いに当接する位置は特に限定されない。例えば、L型アングルの両端部がそれぞれ同一の当接面における一部を形成し、それら両端部がその当接面において互いに当接していてもよい。この場合、両端部が互いに当接せずに離間していてもよい。つまり、シェル部材の軸方向から見た補強部材の全体形状がO型ではなくC型に形成されていてもよい。   According to such a manufacturing method, since the reinforcing member 63 is formed only by bending the plate member 63a, there is no need to punch out the plate member, and the yield of the material forming the reinforcing member 63 can be reduced without scraping the material. It can be improved. The positions at which both ends of the L-shaped angle 63b abut each other in the reinforcing member 63 are not particularly limited. For example, the ends of the L-shaped angle may each form part of the same abutment surface, and the ends may abut each other at the abutment surface. In this case, both ends may be separated without contacting each other. That is, the overall shape of the reinforcing member as viewed from the axial direction of the shell member may be formed to be C-shaped instead of O-shaped.

(2e)上記実施形態では、単一の部品(金属板)で形成された補強部材61を例示したが、これに限定されるものではなく、補強部材は複数の部品で形成されてもよい。
(2f)上記実施形態では、インレットパイプ2及びアウトレットパイプ3が環状板部611よりも内側に配設され、補強部材61がインレットパイプ2及びアウトレットパイプ3のいずれにも干渉していない構成を例示したが、これに限定されるものではない。例えば、補強部材61がインレットパイプ2及びアウトレットパイプ3のうち少なくとも一方と干渉するように配設されていてもよい。この場合、補強部材61がインレットパイプ2及びアウトレットパイプ3のうち少なくとも一方と一体で構成されていてもよい。
(2e) In the above embodiment, the reinforcing member 61 formed of a single component (metal plate) is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the reinforcing member may be formed of a plurality of components.
(2f) In the above embodiment, the inlet pipe 2 and the outlet pipe 3 are disposed on the inner side of the annular plate portion 611, and the reinforcing member 61 does not interfere with any of the inlet pipe 2 and the outlet pipe 3 However, it is not limited to this. For example, the reinforcing member 61 may be disposed to interfere with at least one of the inlet pipe 2 and the outlet pipe 3. In this case, the reinforcing member 61 may be configured integrally with at least one of the inlet pipe 2 and the outlet pipe 3.

(2g)上記実施形態では、筒状部610が環状板部611の外側を囲むように形成され、環状板部611に垂直な補強部材61の断面の形状がL型である構成を例示したが、これに限定されるものではない。例えば、環状板部611の外側を囲む筒状部610のみでなく、環状板部611の内側も囲うように筒状部を更に設け、断面の形状がU型となる構成としてもよい。   (2g) In the above embodiment, the tubular portion 610 is formed to surround the outer side of the annular plate portion 611, and the cross-sectional shape of the reinforcing member 61 perpendicular to the annular plate portion 611 is L-shaped. Not limited to this. For example, a tubular portion may be further provided so as to surround not only the tubular portion 610 surrounding the outer side of the annular plate portion 611 but also the inner side of the annular plate portion 611, and the cross-sectional shape may be U-shaped.
