In this embodiment, the second thick portion 1d is toward the inside of the radial direction, is formed so that its thickness is gradually thinned, further, the radial inner side of the end portion 1f so it toward the film unit 1a, the intermediate portion is formed by bending (hereinafter, the bent portion of "bent portion" 1 g).
Thus, by forming the bent portion 1g in the middle portion of the second thick portion 1d, the tip portion 1f of the second thick portion 1d, rather than the surface in contact with the film portion 1a in the first thick part 1c It would be provided to protrude from the film portion 1a side. In this way, (see FIG. 4 (b)) when fixing a thick portion 1b to the film portion 1a, in contact, whereby the tip portion 1f is film portion 1a of the second thick portion 1d bent portion 1g and its adjacent portion (portion from the first thick portion 1b than the bent portion 1g in the second thick part 1d) becomes the always elastically deformed state.
Since the bent portion 1g and its vicinity portion is always elastically deformed by the elastic force thereof, the distal end portion of the second thick portion 1d is in a state of being pressed against the surface of the membrane portion 1a. Thereby, the second thick portion 1d, compared film portion 1a, in close contact more strongly, when the membrane portion 1a is elastically deformed, quickly become elastically deformed in accordance with the elastic deformation. Thus, the second thick portion 1d is a protective part for protecting the film portion 1a can be film portion 1a so as not to damage, more reliably protected. Further, by the tip portion 1f, it becomes possible to effectively remove foreign substances adhering to the membrane unit 1a.
Figure 5 shows a fourth embodiment of the diaphragm 1. In the diaphragm 1 according to the first embodiment described above, though and the film portion 1a and the thick portion 1b is separate from, but the thick portion 1b were those affixed to the membrane portion 1a by welding, the present embodiment in the mode, film portion 1a and the thick portion 1b is integrally formed of a same metal material.

The diaphragm 1 of the present embodiment, cutting a circular metal plate member having a predetermined thickness, by performing grinding and the like, and a film portion 1a and the thick portion 1b is formed.
Thus, by forming a curved surface 1h between different film portion 1a and the thick portion 1b thicknesses, when the membrane portion 1a is elastically deformed, the second thick portion is a protective portion of the film portion 1a cracks hardly occur in the middle of 1d, it is possible to protect the film portion 1a over a longer period of time. This makes it possible to prolong the life of the diaphragm 1. Note that the thickness direction of the outer surface of the first thick part 1c, the first embodiment and similar thick member 11 are stacked. Other, also in this embodiment, the same effects as the first embodiment.
Figure 6 shows a fifth embodiment of the diaphragm 1. In the fifth embodiment, the shape of the second thick portion 1d is different from the first embodiment. In the first embodiment, although to form a predetermined radius of curvature of the curved surface 1e to the second thick portion 1d, in the second embodiment, instead of this curved surface 1e, the inclined surface 1i inclined at a predetermined angle It is formed. The inclined surface 1i is formed so as to be inclined so as to approach gradually the film part 1a toward the radially inwardly of the film portion 1a from the first thick part 1c.
Thus, by forming the inclined surface 1i to the second thick portion 1d, the second thick portion 1d has a thickness is gradually thinner toward the radially inward of the diaphragm 1. Thus, also in this embodiment, the second thick portion 1d, similarly to the first embodiment, by elastic deformation in accordance with the elastic deformation of the membrane portion 1a, functions as a protection unit for protecting the film portion 1a It has become way.
