Abstract:
1. An oil strainer, comprising: a strainer body including first and second tubular members and a fusion bonding part in which one end of the first tubular member in an axial direction thereof is connected to one end of the second tubular member in an axial direction thereof, the first tubular member including a first main wall having a circular cylindrical shape and a large diameter part having a diameter larger than the first main wall, the second tubular member including a second main wall having a circular cylindrical shape, and an outer cylindrical part surrounding an end of the second main wall; and a filter contained in the strainer body, the strainer body being separate from the filter, wherein the filter includes a flange clamped between the first tubular member and the second tubular member; the first tubular member includes a shoulder with which the flange of the filter is engaged when the flange is clamped between the first tubular member and the second tubular member; an inner periphery of the large diameter part of the first tubular member includes an upper shoulder closer to the other end of the first tubular member in an axial direction thereof than a first fusion bonding part, and a lower shoulder closer to the one end of the first tubular member in the axial direction thereof than the first fusion bonding part, the upper shoulder and the lower shoulder respectively forming an outlet-side bonding flash accommodation part and an inlet-side bonding flash accommodation part; an outer circumferential periphery of the outer cylindrical part of the second tubular member includes an upper shoulder closer to the one end of the second tubular member in an axial direction thereof than a second fusion boding part, and a lower shoulder closer to the other end of the second tubular member in the axial direction thereof than the second fusion bonding part, the upper shoulder and the lower shoulder respectively forming the outlet-side bonding flash accommodation part and the inlet-side bonding flash accommodation part; the second tubular member includes a filter stop protruding more toward the first tubular member than the upper shoulder; the filter stop extending circularly and protruding from one end of the outer cylindrical part of the second tubular member, and the filter stop being configured to abut against and to stop the flange of the filter that is engaged with the shoulder of the first tubular member; the filter stop including a cross section in which a protruding end is tapered; the second tubular member includes a collar extending radially outwardly and circumferentially from the other end of the outer cylindrical part for covering the inlet-side bonding flash accommodation part; and the one end of the first tubular member is configured to have an inner diameter larger than the outer diameter of the one end of the second tubular member, wherein the entire circumference of the filter stop of the second tubular member is in contact with the flange of the filter, and the filter stop is configured to seal the outlet-side bonding flash accommodation part.
