Abstract
An electrode unit of a joining apparatus includes an abutting section provided with a tapered outer circumferential surface that contacts a tapered pressure-receiving surface by being inserted into an inside of a first metal member. The tapered outer circumferential surface inclines in a direction of getting closer to an axial center of the abutting section from one end side to another end side. At least part of the abutting section has a thickness elastically deformable in such a manner that the tapered outer circumferential surface aligns with the tapered pressure-receiving surface during application of a pressurizing force to the first metal member and a second metal member.
