Abstract

PURPOSE:To connect an eye part and a pipe part to each other without brazing and secure high sealing performance by providing the eye part with a neck part forming one part of a lateral hole on the inner peripheral surface of the eye part, then fitting one end of the pipe part to the outer peripheral surface of the neck part, and caulking the whole outer peripheral surface. CONSTITUTION:An eye part 1 is formed into ring shape and provided with a vertical hole 11, a ring groove part 12 formed on the inner peripheral surface of the vertical hole 11, and a lateral hole 13 axially intersecting the vertical hole 11 so as to communicate the groove part 12 with outside. In order to connect the eye part 1 and the pipe part 2 to each other, one end of the pipe part 2 is fitted to the outer peripheral surface of a neck part 14, and then the whole outer peripheral surface of the pipe part 2 is caulking-molded to form caulking parts 21. The pipe part 2 is deformed in the diameter-contracted state by the caulking parts 21, 21 so as to be press-fitted to the outer peripheral surface of the neck part 14. The eye part 1 and the pipe part 2 are thus connected to each other with high sealing performance.
