In the bonding method, the bonding surfaces of the members to be bonded are positioned to face each other, an electric current is supplied from one of the members to be bonded to the other for carrying out resistance heating while the pair of members to be bonded are slid relative to each other. In this way, the bonding surfaces are bonded to each other. Split or partition surfaces that form a hollow passage and extending along the axis of the hollow passage are set as the bonding surfaces which are not on the same plane.

Abstract: Joining surfaces (2a, 2b) of a pair of conductive joining members (1a, 1b) to be joined to each other are caused to face each other, and while one of the joining members (1a, 1b) is slid relative to the other of the joining members (1a, 1b), a current is passed from one of the joining members (1a, 1b) to the other of the joining members (1a, 1b) so as to cause resistance heating. Abrasion, plastic flow, and material diffusion therefore occur in high surface-pressure sections of the joining surfaces (2a, 2b), and the joining surfaces (2a, 2b) are joined together while current concentration locations are varied from moment to moment.
