Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To increase vibration strength of a pipe with a simple structure, and to minimize manufacturing costs by inserting an auxiliary pipe into a pipe so as to protrude from at least one side surface of a flange metal fitting. SOLUTION: This pipe joint structure is used for a vehicular air conditioner. A left side of a pipe 6 with respect to a flange metal fitting 7 is connected to a compressor 1, and a right side of the pipe 6 is connected to a delivery rubber hose 3. When the vehicular air conditioner is operated, vibration is generated on the compressor 1, and thereby, considerable vibration is applied on the pipe joint structure. When vibration is applied, stress concentration is generated in the vicinity of a welding part 9 of the pipe 6 and the flange metal fitting 7, the pipe 6 may be broken. In this pipe joint structure, a reinforcing pipe 11 is inserted in a position where the pipe 6 and the flange metal fitting 7 are intersected. Since stress is dispersed by the reinforcing pipe 11, the total length of the reinforcing pipe 11 is extended larger than a distance L between the left side of the pipe and the welding part 9.
