FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a joint structure manufactured by a method for manufacturing the joint structure according to the present embodiment. As shown inFIG. 1 , thejoint structure 10 includes a first plate-shapedmember 11 made of steel and a second plate-shapedmember 12 made of steel as a reinforcing material, which is formed into a long shape narrower than the first plate-shapedmember 11. - The second plate-shaped
member 12 is overlapped on asurface 11 a of the first plate-shapedmember 11. Bothedge portions 12 a along a longitudinal direction (X direction in the drawing) of the second plate-shapedmember 12 and thesurface 11 a of the first plate-shapedmember 11 are joined by a weld metal (bead) 13 formed by an arc welding or a laser-arc hybrid welding. The weld metal (bead) 13 may be formed continuously along both theedge portions 12 a or may be formed intermittently. However, as described later, in the case where bending is performed along an imaginary line B (seeFIG. 2A ) set on an overlappingsurface 14, the weld metal (bead) 13 is preferably formed continuously in order to correspond to a stress generated at the time of bending. - A material of the first plate-shaped
member 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12, which are made of steel, is not particularly limited as long as it is pure iron and iron alloy, and examples thereof include mild steel, carbon steel, and stainless steel. - The first plate-shaped
member 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12 can also be subjected to surface treatment for forming a coating such as an electrically low element or work piece, an insulating substance, and a passivation film in order to preventing rust, and the like. Examples thereof include zinc plating, chromium plating, nickel plating, aluminum plating, tin plating, resin coating, and ceramic coating. - Both the
edge portions 12 a of the second plate-shapedmember 12 and thesurface 11 a of the first plate-shapedmember 11 are joined with a filler metal (welding wire) by an arc welding or a laser-arc hybrid welding. Therefore, both theedge portions 12 a of the second plate-shapedmember 12 can be joined in a wide area, and joining strength is improved as compared with joining by a spot welding, a laser welding, or the like. Further, by appropriately selecting components of the filler metal, it is possible to design joining strength at a joint portion. As for a material of the filler metal, a welding wire or a welding rod which is generally used is applicable as long as theweld metal 13 is a Fe-based alloy. - In the laser-arc hybrid welding, a laser is added as a heat source in an arc welding method as a heat source and wire supply method. The method is advantageous in that the welding speed is higher than that of an ordinary arc welding method.
- In the embodiment shown in
FIG. 1 , both theedge portions 12 a along the longitudinal direction of the second plate-shapedmember 12 are welded to the first plate-shapedmember 11 by arc welding or laser-arc hybrid welding, butedge portions 12 b extending in a direction (short direction) which intersect the bothedge portions 12 a of the second plate-shapedmember 12 may also be welded to the first plate-shapedmember 11 by an arc welding or a laser-arc hybrid welding. In this way, by welding the second plate-shapedmember 12 to the first plate-shapedmember 11 over an entire periphery of theedge portions member 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12 can be prevented, and corrosion resistance is significantly improved. - The first plate-shaped
member 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12 welded by an arc welding or a laser-arc hybrid welding may be bent to form a formed article. Depending on a degree of bending or strength required for thejoint structure 10, in the case where only bothedge portions 12 a of the second plate-shapedmember 12 are welded by an arc welding or a laser-arc hybrid welding, thejoint structure 10 may have insufficient joining strength or bending strength. In particular, when a width of the second plate-shapedmember 12 is wide and a distance between the twoedge portions 12 a is large, strength may be insufficient. -
FIG. 2A is a perspective view of ajoint structure 10A according to a modification in which thefront surface 11 a of the first plate-shapedmember 11 and the bothedge portions 12 a of the second plate-shapedmember 12 are joined by an arc welding or a laser-arc hybrid welding, and the overlappingsurfaces 14 of the first plate-shapedmember 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12 are further joined by a laser welding.FIG. 2B is a cross-sectional view taken along a line A-A ofFIG. 2A . - In the
joint structure 10A according to the modification, as shown inFIG. 2A andFIG. 2B , the overlappingsurfaces 14 of the first plate-shapedmember 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12, in which both theedge portions 12 a are joined to the first plate-shapedmember 11 by an arc welding or a laser-arc hybrid welding, are joined by a laser welding by plural pairs ofjoint portions 15 arranged along the longitudinal direction (X direction inFIG. 2A ) of the second plate-shapedmember 12 and formed to face to each other in a width direction of the second plate-shapedmember 12. This further improves the joining strength between the first plate-shapedmember 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12. - The
joint structure 10A thus formed is bent along an imaginary line B (seeFIG. 2A ) set on the overlappingsurface 14, and is processed into a formedarticle 20 shown inFIG. 3 by forming abent portion 16. - The bent portion 16 (imaginary line B) is preferably set so as to pass substantially the center of a pair of the
joint portions 15 formed to face to each other in the width direction of the second plate-shapedmember 12. Accordingly, a force acting at the time of bending acts equally on the left and right to improve shape accuracy of the formedarticle 20. - Accompanied with bending, a shearing force acts on the joint portion between the first plate-shaped
member 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12. In the case where the first plate-shapedmember 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12 are joined only by a spot welding or a laser welding, the joining strength of theedge portions 12 a of the second plate-shapedmember 12 with the first plate-shapedmember 11 may be weak, and the second plate-shapedmember 12 may be peeled off from theedge portions 12 a. - However, in the
joint structure 10A of the embodiment, the first plate-shapedmember 11 and both theedge portions 12 a of the second plate-shapedmember 12 are joined by an arc welding or a laser-arc hybrid welding, and the overlappingsurfaces 14 of the first plate-shapedmember 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12 are joined in a plurality of portions by a laser welding. Therefore, the joining strength is high, and the first plate-shapedmember 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12 are prevented from being peeled off by bending. - In the case where the
joint structures member 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12. In the case where thejoint structures -
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of a joint structure according to another modification in which the overlappingsurfaces 14 of the first plate-shapedmember 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12, in which theedge portions 12 a are joined by an arc welding or a laser-arc hybrid welding, are joined by a plasma welding, a TIG welding, or a laser-TIG hybrid welding. - In a joint structure 10B of the modification, the first plate-shaped
member 11 and both theedge portions 12 a of the second plate-shapedmember 12 are joined with theweld metal 13 formed by an arc welding or a laser-arc hybrid welding, and the overlappingsurfaces 14 of the first plate-shapedmember 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12 are further joined firmly in a plurality of portions byjoint portions 17 formed by a plasma welding, a TIG welding, or a laser-TIG hybrid welding. - In this way, in the first plate-shaped
member 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12, both theedge portions 12 a are joined to the first plate-shapedmember 11 by an arc welding or a laser-arc hybrid welding, and the overlappingsurfaces 14 of the first plate-shapedmember 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12 are further joined firmly in a plurality of portions by any welding of a laser welding, a plasma welding, a TIG welding, and laser-TIG hybrid welding, so that the first plate-shapedmember 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12 can be formed by hot stamping and are suitably used as the structural member for an automobile. - In the laser-TIG hybrid welding, a laser is added as a heat source in a TIG welding method as a heat source and wire supply method. The method is advantageous in that penetration (penetrability of two plates) is deeper and the welding speed is higher than those of an ordinary arc welding method.
- For example,
FIG. 5 shows an example of a B pillar 30 (an example of the structural member for an automobile) manufactured by processing thejoint structures B pillar 30 is formed by joining one second plate-shapedmember 12 by welding to a part of the first plate-shapedmember 11 required for reinforcement and then integrally forming them by hot stamping. - The
B pillar 30 shown inFIG. 6 is formed by joining two second plate-shapedmembers 12 to the first plate-shapedmember 11 at positions which are ridge line portions of theB pillar 30, respectively, and bending the first plate-shapedmember 11 and the second plate-shapedmembers 12 by hot stamping on the overlappingsurface 14 between the first plate-shapedmember 11 and the second plate-shapedmember 12. - Examples of the structural member for an automobile to which the
