すい。However, since the high temperature exhaust gas of the automobile circulates in the metal honeycomb carrier, the outer diameter of the core portion and the inner diameter of the outer cylinder are substantially equal to each other so that a gap is not formed between them as much as possible. Must be mated. Therefore, various methods are used to insert the core portion into the outer cylinder. For example, in Japanese Patent Publication No. 57-55886, after the core portion is press-fitted into the outer cylinder, the diameter of the outer cylinder is reduced by a drawing tool capable of press-fitting the outer cylinder to reduce the diameter of the outer cylinder. A method is disclosed in which the two are joined together by welding or brazing to each other in the area of the press fit. However, according to this method, since the core portion is hard to fit in the outer cylinder, a gap is likely to be formed between the core portion and the outer cylinder.

うに挿入することによって容易に達成できる。The present invention will be described in more detail. The term "expanding" in the present invention means expanding the outer tube end portion to such an extent that the tip of the core part can be slightly inserted into the outer tube, and normally expands about 0.1 to 0.5 mm from the inner diameter of the outer tube. This is sufficient, and this can be easily achieved by using, for example, a metal mold for pipe expansion having a trapezoidal cross-sectional shape as the pipe expanding means, and inserting this into the outer cylinder so as to expand to a predetermined size.

In the case of using a hydraulic cylinder, it is preferable to use a backing plate on the upper part of the core part because an accident such as damage to the core or occurrence of a flaw will occur if a concentrated load is applied. Also, when performing with a robot hand, hold the core part and push it into the outer cylinder up to a predetermined position, then loosen the hand and press the upper part from the press-fitted part and push it in again with this hand.

実施例を説明する。After press-fitting, a heat treatment is applied to return the expanded pipe portion to its original state. As the heat treatment condition, it is performed in the temperature range of 800 to 1200 ° C. for 5 hours to 20 minutes. When the core portion and the outer cylinder are brazed, the heat treatment may be performed in vacuum at a temperature of about 1200 ° C. for 20 minutes to perform the brazing heat treatment together with the restoration. Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, the tube expansion mold 2 is inserted into one end surface of the outer cylinder 3 by about 1 to 2 mm (a), and the inner diameter of the end of the outer cylinder 3 is expanded by 0.1 to 0.2 mm. The state in which the tip of the pipe is expanded is shown in FIG. Next, the core portion 1 is inserted into the expanded outer cylinder 3 and pressure is applied from the other end surface of the core portion to press the core portion into the outer cylinder 3 (Fig. C). After the entire core portion 1 is press-fitted into the outer cylinder 3 (Fig. D), the expanded portion is restored by heat treatment at about 900 ° C for 60 minutes to obtain the metal honeycomb carrier 4.
