A method of manufacturing a honeycomb structure having a plugged portion, which is faster and cheaper to manufacture, and a manufacturing apparatus thereof. A film is attached to an end face of a honeycomb structure in a state where the honeycomb structure is positioned in a table portion having a through hole into which the end face portion of the honeycomb structure is to be inserted, and the film is held in a flat state where a remaining portion of the film which is not attached to the end face is attached to the table portion. Then, holes opened so as to correspond to the openings of a part of cells are formed in the film to form the film as a mask, and a plugging material having fluidity is supplied onto the mask or onto the same plane as the mask to fill the cells with the plugging material.

1. A manufacturing apparatus of a honeycomb structure having a plugged portion, comprising: film attaching means for attaching a film to the end face of the honeycomb structure in a state where the side surface portion of the honeycomb structure is not covered, the honeycomb structure having porous partition walls and provided with a plurality of cells partitioned by the partition walls and formed so as to extend through the honeycomb structure from one end face of the honeycomb structure to the other end face thereof;a table portion having a through hole into which the honeycomb structure is to be inserted;positioning means for moving the table portion or the honeycomb structure in a state where the honeycomb structure to which the film is attached is inserted into the through hole, and positioning and holding the table portion and the honeycomb structure to attach the remaining portion of the film to the table portion so that the film attached to the end face has a flat state;hole making means for forming, in the film, holes opened so as to correspond to the openings of a part of the cells;plugging material supply means for supplying a plugging material having fluidity onto the mask provided with the holes or onto the table portion; andfilling means for filling the cells with the plugging material supplied onto the mask or the table portion. 2. A manufacturing apparatus of a honeycomb structure having a plugged portion, comprising: a table portion having a through hole into which the end face portion of a honeycomb structure is to be inserted, the honeycomb structure having porous partition walls and provided with a plurality of cells partitioned by the partition walls and formed so as to extend through the honeycomb structure from one end of the honeycomb structure to the other end face thereof;film attaching means for attaching a film to the side of the surface of the table portion;positioning means for positioning and holding the table portion and the honeycomb structure so as to attach the film to the end face of the honeycomb structure in a state where the end face portion of the honeycomb structure is inserted into the through hole of the table portion provided with the film attached to the side of the surface of the table portion including a region of the through hole and where the side surface portion of the honeycomb structure is not covered;hole making means for forming, in the film attached to the end face of the honeycomb structure, holes opened so as to correspond to the openings of a part of the cells, thereby forming a mask;plugging material supply means for supplying a plugging material having fluidity onto the mask provided with the holes or onto the table portion; andfilling means for filling the cells with the plugging material supplied onto the mask or the table portion. 3. A manufacturing apparatus of a honeycomb structure having a plugged portion, comprising: a table portion having a through hole into which the end face portion of a honeycomb structure is to be inserted, the honeycomb structure having porous partition walls and provided with a plurality of cells partitioned by the partition walls and formed so as to extend through the honeycomb structure from one end of the honeycomb structure to the other end face thereof;positioning means for positioning and holding the table portion and the honeycomb structure so that the surface of the table portion has the same plane as that of the end face of the honeycomb structure in a state where the end face portion of the honeycomb structure is inserted into the through hole of the table portion;film attaching means for attaching a film to the surface of the table portion and the end face of the honeycomb structure after positioning the table portion and the honeycomb structure;hole making means for forming, in the film attached to the end face of the honeycomb structure, holes opened so as to correspond to the openings of a part of the cells, thereby forming a mask;plugging material supply means for supplying a plugging material having fluidity onto the mask provided with the holes or onto the table portion; andfilling means for filling the cells with the plugging material supplied onto the mask or the table portion. 4. The manufacturing apparatus of the honeycomb structure having a plugged portion according to claim 1, further comprising: moving means for moving the table portion or the honeycomb structure after filling the cells with the plugging material;peeling means for peeling the mask; anddrying means for drying the honeycomb structure. 5. The manufacturing apparatus of the honeycomb structure having a plugged portion according to claim 2, further comprising: moving means for moving the table portion or the honeycomb structure after filling the cells with the plugging material;peeling means for peeling the mask; anddrying means for drying the honeycomb structure. 6. The manufacturing apparatus of the honeycomb structure having a plugged portion according to claim 3, further comprising: moving means for moving the table portion or the honeycomb structure after filling the cells with the plugging material;peeling means for peeling the mask; anddrying means for drying the honeycomb structure. 7. The manufacturing apparatus of the honeycomb structure having a plugged portion according to claim 1, wherein the table portion has side wall portions which are arranged on opposite sides of the through hole on the surface of the table portion and which are formed so as to project from the surface of the table portion, whereby the plugging material is prevented from leaking from the surface of the table portion. 8. The manufacturing apparatus of the honeycomb structure having a plugged portion according to claim 2, wherein the table portion has side wall portions which are arranged on opposite sides of the through hole on the surface of the table portion and which are formed so as to project from the surface of the table portion, whereby the plugging material is prevented from leaking from the surface of the table portion. 9. The manufacturing apparatus of the honeycomb structure having a plugged portion according to claim 3, wherein the table portion has side wall portions which are arranged on opposite sides of the through hole on the surface of the table portion and which are formed so as to project from the surface of the table portion, whereby the plugging material is prevented from leaking from the surface of the table portion. 10. The manufacturing apparatus of the honeycomb structure having a plugged portion according to claim 4, wherein the table portion has side wall portions which are arranged on opposite sides of the through hole on the surface of the table portion and which are formed so as to project from the surface of the table portion, whereby the plugging material is prevented from leaking from the surface of the table portion. 11. The manufacturing apparatus of the honeycomb structure having a plugged portion according to claim 5, wherein the table portion has side wall portions which are arranged on opposite sides of the through hole on the surface of the table portion and which are formed so as to project from the surface of the table portion, whereby the plugging material is prevented from leaking from the surface of the table portion. 12.
