Abstract

Heat conductive fins are welded along both sides of a belt-like member with a margin left along edges of the both sides, thereby to form a unit. The unit is welded to a body with the heat conductive fins from the outside of each fin. Next, another belt-like member is covered over a gap between adjacent belt-like members, and these members are welded from the outside. With this arrangement, there is no need to weld in a narrow and long space and the entire welding step is carried out from the outside, which makes it easier to assemble a cask.
