In particular, the end plates 2, 2 in this embodiment are hardened by being heated and then cooled, and have uneven portions 17 formed on their outer peripheral surfaces.
The end plate 2 is joined to the cylindrical body 1 by plastically flowing the flesh of the body 1 into a relatively soft cylindrical shape at room temperature, which has not been subjected to any heat treatment. That is, this bonding is performed by inserting the heat-hardened end plate 2 into the cylindrical body 1 and then applying pressure to the cylindrical body 1 from the outer periphery at room temperature. In this way, not only can the two parts be easily connected without welding work, but also the reliability of this connection is high, and since both parts are made of the same material, each part can be manufactured easily. becomes easier.

Furthermore, in order to make this bonded state more reliable, an inwardly projecting bead portion 18 is formed on the cylindrical body 1 in the vicinity of the end plate 2 in an annular shape or in a plurality of protrusions. This bead part 18
may be formed at the same time when the end plates 2, 2 and the cylindrical body 1 are joined together by pressure, or the bead portion 18 may be formed after this pressure joining, but in any case, the bead portion 18 may be formed. It is necessary for the bead portion 18 to sandwich the end plate 2 or the drying portion 12.

FIG. 2 shows another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, an elastic sealing material 19 such as an O-ring is provided on the end plate 2, and this sealing material 19 is provided between the cylindrical body and the end plate 2. The elastic sealing material 19 is pressed and bonded so as to be pressed. However, this elastic sealing material 1
9, as shown in FIG.
It is better to form the elastic sealing material 19 in the recessed part 20 and interposing the elastic sealing material 9 in the recessed part 20 and joining it under pressure.
This is preferable from the standpoint of improving the quality of the seal, as it prevents unnecessary deformation.

In this embodiment as well, if the cylindrical main body 1 and the end plate 2 are made of the same aluminum material as in the previous embodiment, they can be connected almost integrally.
This connection also becomes more reliable. In particular, since welding or the like is not used as in conventional methods, manufacturing costs can be reduced, and even if aluminum material, which is more expensive than steel, is used, there is no disadvantage in terms of cost. Moreover, the seal between the end plate 2 and the cylindrical body 1 is greatly improved compared to the previous embodiment.

(Effects of the invention) As is clear from the above explanation, according to the invention, the cylindrical body and the end plate are made of the same aluminum material, and the end plate is heated and hardened to form uneven portions on the outer peripheral surface. However, since the end plate and the cylindrical body are joined by causing plastic flow inside the cylindrical body in this uneven portion, the conventional welding can be abolished, and simple pressure joining can be performed. Since the cylindrical body and the end plate can be connected, not only can the cost disadvantage caused by using aluminum material be eliminated, but also the connection between both members can be made more reliable.
