This side edge portion 7b can be formed by making the wall thickness of the wave-shaped peak a thick (for example, 4 to 5 mm) and the valley b thin (for example, 0.5 mm) to make the wall thickness uneven. b
Because it becomes easier to thermally expand, together with the wave shape, it becomes easier to absorb thermal expansion.
