Abstract

Method of manufacturing a metal gasket including a base plate having at least fluid passage holes and circular beads surrounding the fluid passage holes, the base plate being formed by providing a rubber coating layer on a surface of a metal plate with a base coat and an adhesive interposed therebetween. A metal plate having low-temperature age-hardening characteristics is used as the metal plate of the base plate. After the base coat is applied to the metal plate and dried at a temperature lower than a low aging temperature of the metal plate, press-working of the circular beads is performed on the metal plate. Thereafter, the metal plate is age-hardened while burning the base coat at the low aging temperature of the metal plate. A metal gasket having excellent durability and circular beads which are hardly broken even when crushed, is obtained.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a metal gasket, which is particularly suitable for manufacturing a cylinder head metal gasket of an internal combustion engine. BACKGROUND ART

[0002] As a metal gasket, there has been known, for example, a cylinder head metal gasket including at least one base plate, as a single base plate or a plurality of stacked base plates. Specifically, the base plate is formed by providing a rubber coating layer on a surface of a stainless steel plate as a metal plate. Moreover, the base plate has cylinder holes as fluid passage holes formed so as to correspond to respective cylinder bores in a cylinder block of an internal combustion engine, and circular beads which are formed around the respective cylinder holes and each of which has a sectional shape like that of an angle bar.

[0003] The cylinder head metal gasket is inserted between deck planes of the cylinder block and the cylinder head of the internal combu...
