Abstract

A cooling device (70) for cooling a work piece (9) that has reached a high temperature due to the implementation of a closing operation in which a bottom portion (9c) is formed by closing an end portion of the tubular work piece (9) comprises a tilting mechanism (151) which tilts the work piece (9) such that the bottom portion (9c) faces downwards and a cooling water tank (155) storing cooling water. The bottom portion (9c) of the work piece (9) tilted by the tilting mechanism (151) is submerged in cooling water stored in the cooling water tank (155).
