The longitudinal extent being greater than the width extent, and the sub-segments each having longitudinal edges extending in longitudinal extent and being connected to one another at mutually abutting joint surfaces along the longitudinal edges by a welded joint respectively. The sub-segments respectively have end edges extending in width, the sub-segments being bent along their end edges respectively. The respective welded joint has in sections a thickness which is smaller than a wall thickness of the metal plate and in sections a thickness which corresponds at least to the wall thickness of the metal plate.
