Method for applying sealing material paste to peripheral surface of ceramic block

摘要

A method of manufacturing a honeycomb structured body, includes providing an application jig. A sealing material paste is put on a peripheral surface of a pillar-shaped ceramic block. The application jig is set in such a manner that a first principal surface of the application jig faces upward and a second principal surface of the application jig faces downward. The ceramic block is placed inside a second opening section of the application jig. The ceramic block is passed through an opening section of the application jig so that a face defining the second opening section spreads an entire peripheral surface of the ceramic block with the sealing material paste to manufacture a honeycomb structured body with a peripheral sealing material layer formed on the peripheral surface of the ceramic block.

1. A method of manufacturing a honeycomb structured body, comprising:
providing an application jig comprising:
a first principal surface;a second principal surface provided on an opposite side of the first principal surface; andan opening section penetrating from the first principal surface to the second principal surface and comprising:
a first opening section provided on the first principal surface side; anda second opening section provided on the second principal surface side and having a substantially constant diameter from the second principal surface toward a boundary line between the first opening section and the second opening section, the first opening section having a diameter gradually decreasing from the first principal surface toward the boundary line; putting a sealing material paste on a peripheral surface of a pillar-shaped ceramic block; setting the application jig in such a manner that the first principal surface faces upward and the second principal surface faces downward; placing the ceramic block inside the second opening section of the application jig; and passing the ceramic block through the opening section of the application jig so that a face defining the second opening section spreads an entire peripheral surface of the ceramic block with the sealing material paste to manufacture a honeycomb structured body with a peripheral sealing material layer formed on the peripheral surface of the ceramic block.
