PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cooling device with a light weight, and a high cooling efficiency and reliability. SOLUTION: A cooling device 108 is provided in a thermal treating device 50 which is subjected to a predetermined thermal treatment for a workpiece W in a treating envelop 56 heated by a heating means 89. The cooling device 108 comprises a cooling cylindrical part 110 of a cylindrical shape disposed surrounding the treating envelop containing the heating means, a cooling pipe member 112 wound on a side surface of the cooling cylindrical part and soldered on the side surface, and a refrigerant supply means 114 for supplying a refrigerant to the cooling pipe member for circulation. Thus, since the cooling pipe member itself has only to have a pressure resistance to a refrigerant pressure, it is possible to decrease the thickness of the cooling pipe member itself and to decrease considerably the weight of the overall cooling device.
