摘要

A housing has metal bowls (1, 2) connected by circularly formed flanges (3, 4), which are mechanically interlocked. An adhesive layer (5) is inserted between the flanges, where the adhesive layer is a ceramic. The adhesive layer adjusts a certain ripple within a region of the flanges, and is adapted to some operational conditions. The adhesive from plastic has temperature stability up to 300[deg]C.
