2. Description of the Related Art For example, a body frame or a swing arm of a motorcycle is required to have a structural member having high rigidity and light weight. As a structural member, a pipe material having a closed cross-section structure is often used because it satisfies the above-mentioned conditions.

The structural member is generally formed by extruding or drawing a pipe material when the cross-sectional shape may be the same in the longitudinal direction.
On the other hand, when it is desired to change the size of the cross-sectional shape of the structural member in the longitudinal direction of the structural member, that is, a so-called tapered structural member in which the size of the cross-sectional shape at one end is different from the size of the cross-sectional shape at the other end is required. In this case, since the above-mentioned extrusion or drawing method cannot be used, for example, plate materials that have been bent or pressed are joined to each other by welding or the like to form a tapered structural member having a closed cross-section structure (bending process). For the tapered swing arm, refer to JP-A-5-246373).

In the case of a motorcycle body frame, a portion where stress is concentrated, for example, a connection portion with a head pipe requires higher rigidity than other portions of the body frame. Further, in the case of a swing arm, stress concentrates on the base portion of the swing arm and the connecting portion of the shock absorber, so that this portion requires higher rigidity than other portions. In order to obtain high rigidity, it is necessary to increase the cross-sectional shape of that portion or increase the wall thickness.

However, when a pipe material extruded or drawn into the body frame or swing arm is used, the pipe material has the same cross-sectional shape in the longitudinal direction, so that the stress is concentrated on the portion. It is necessary to increase the size of the cross-sectional shape of the entire pipe material or increase the wall thickness in accordance with the rigidity required for the above, resulting in an unnecessary increase in weight.

However, as described above, since the taper-shaped structural member cannot be extruded or drawn out, for example, the pressed plate materials are joined to each other by welding or the like to form a taper-shaped centering structure. However, since the member of such a mid-matching structure has low torsional strength, it is necessary to add a reinforcing plate etc. to the part where stress is concentrated, and the number of parts is increased. Welding points will also increase.
