Description

接合構造体及び接合構造体の製造方法
 本発明は、金属部材と樹脂部材とが接合された接合領域を有する接合構造体及び接合構造体の製造方法に関する。
 従来から、樹脂同士が接合された接合領域を有する接合構造体の製造方法として特許文献1が知られている。
 特許文献1には、レーザ光を透過する透過性熱可塑性樹脂から構成される第1の部材と、レーザ光を吸収する吸収性熱可塑性樹脂から構成される第2の部材とを接触させ、レーザ光で接触面を溶融して接合する熱可塑性樹脂部材のレーザ溶着方法であって、第1の部材と第2の部材とを減圧雰囲気下で接触させ、第1の部材側から前記2つの部材の接触面に前記レーザ光を照射する熱可塑性樹脂部材のレーザ溶着方法が開示されている。
 特許文献1によれば、レーザ光を透過する透過性熱可塑性樹脂から構成される第1の部材と、レーザ光を吸収する吸収性熱可塑性樹脂から構成される第2の部材とを接触させ、レーザ光を透過する第1の部材側からレーザ光を照射すると、レーザ光はレーザ光を透過しない第2の部材の表面でエネルギーが蓄積されて発熱する。レーザ光をさらに照射すると発熱量は大きくなり、接触面を通して第1の部材との接触面も同時に加熱され、2つの部材の接触面が溶融し、2つの部材が溶着される。
特開2007-111926号公報
 特許文献1の技術は、樹脂同士の接合に関する発明であるが、この発明を、樹脂部材と金属部材との接合に用いた場合は、以下に記載する課題が生じていた。
 樹脂部材と金属部材とを減圧雰囲気下でレーザを照射して接合させた場合、減圧により樹脂側への熱拡散が生じにくいことに加え、熱伝導度の違いから金属部材側への熱拡散が圧倒的に大きいので、樹脂部材の熱溶融が生じにくかった。そのため、樹脂部材の熱溶融を生じさせて、樹脂部材と金属部材とを接合させるためには、レーザの照射エネルギーを上げる必要があった。このように、レーザの照射エネルギーを上げることは、省エネルギー化の観点から好ましくない。
 本発明は、かかる点に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的とするところは、金属部材と樹脂部材とのレーザ接合時に照射されたレーザエネルギーが小さい場合でも、金属部材の熱拡散を抑制して樹脂部材の熱溶融性を高め、金属部材と樹脂部材との接合性が良好な接合構造体及びこの接合構造体の製造方法の提供を目的とする。
 上記目的を達するために、本発明は次のとおりの構成としている。
 本発明に係る接合構造体は、金属部材と樹脂部材とが接合された接合領域を有する接合構造体であって、前記金属部材の前記接合領域には、当該金属部材の表面に開口を有する凹状部が形成されるとともに、前記金属部材の凹状部には、前記樹脂部材が充填されており、前記金属部材には、前記接合領域と、該接合領域と隣接する隣接領域と、を包含する領域内に、前記金属部材の厚みが薄くされた薄厚部が設けられていることを特徴とする。
 また、上記接合構造体であって、前記薄厚部は、前記接合領域内に形成されていてもよい。
 また、上記接合構造体であって、前記薄厚部は、少なくとも前記隣接領域を含む領域内に形成されていてもよい。
 また、上記接合構造体であって、前記薄厚部には、断熱材が備えられていてもよい。

 また、上記接合構造体であって、前記凹状部の内周面には、内側に突出する突出部が形成されていてもよい。
 また、本発明に係る接合構造体の製造方法は、金属部材と樹脂部材とが接合された接合領域を有する接合構造体の製造方法であって、前記金属部材において、前記接合領域と、該接合領域と隣接する隣接領域と、を包含する領域内に、前記金属部材の厚みが薄くされた薄厚部を形成する薄厚部形成工程と、前記金属部材の表面の前記接合領域に、開口を有する凹状部を形成する凹状部形成工程と、前記金属部材の表面と前記樹脂部材とを隣接配置する配置工程と、前記樹脂部材側から前記金属部材の接合領域にレーザを照射することにより、前記金属部材の前記凹状部に前記樹脂部材を充填して接合させる接合工程と、を備えることを特徴とする。
 また、上記接合構造体の製造方法であって、前記接合工程では、前記金属部材の接合領域にレーザを照射する際に、前記接合領域内においてレーザを走査させるとともに、前記走査を同一軌跡で複数回行うこととしてもよい。
 また、上記接合構造体の製造方法であって、前記凹状部形成工程では、1パルスが複数のサブパルスで構成されるレーザを照射することにより、前記凹状部を形成してもよい。
 本発明によれば、金属部材と樹脂部材とのレーザ接合時に照射されたレーザエネルギーが小さい場合でも、金属部材の熱拡散を抑制して樹脂部材の熱溶融性を高め、金属部材と樹脂部材との接合性が良好な接合構造体及びこの接合構造体の製造方法を提供できる。

 -接合構造体の構成-
 まず、本発明の第1実施形態の接合構造体1について説明する。
 本実施形態の接合構造体1は、金属部材2と樹脂部材3とがレーザによって接合された接合構造体1であって、金属部材2と樹脂部材3とが接合された接合領域BFを有している。
 金属部材2は、鉄系金属、ステンレス系金属、銅系金属、アルミ系金属、マグネシウム系金属、および、それらの合金が挙げられる。また、金属成型体であってもよく、亜鉛ダイカスト、アルミダイカスト、粉末冶金などであってもよい。
 金属部材2の接合領域BFには、金属部材2の表面に開口を有する凹状部21が形成される。凹状部21は、平面的に見てほぼ円形の非貫通孔であり、金属部材2の表面に複数形成されている。なお、凹状部の形状は、非貫通孔に限定されず、断面が凹形状であれば、例えば、溝状であってもよい。
 凹状部21の開口径は、30μm以上、100μm以下が好ましい。これは、開口径が30μmを下回ると、後述する接合工程において照射された接合用のレーザが凹状部21内に十分に閉じ込められず、接合用のレーザのエネルギーを熱に変換する変換効率が低下する場合があるためである。一方、開口径が100μmを上回ると、単位面積あたりの凹状部21の数が減少して、接合用のレーザのエネルギーを熱に変換する変換効率が低下する場合があるためである。また、凹状部21の深さは、10μm以上であることが好ましい。これは、深さが10μmを下回ると、接合用のレーザのエネルギーを熱に変換する変換効率が低下する場合があるためである。
 また、凹状部21の間隔(所定の凹状部21の中心と、所定の凹状部21と隣接する凹状部21の中心との距離)は、200μm以下であることが好ましい。これは、凹状部21の間隔が200μmを上回ると、単位面積あたりの凹状部21の数が減少して、接合用のレーザのエネルギーを熱に変換する変換効率が低下する場合があるためである。なお、凹状部21の間隔の下限の一例としては、凹状部21が重畳して潰れない距離である。また、凹状部21の間隔は等間隔であることが好ましい。これは、凹状部21が等間隔であると、接合用のレーザが照射される際の熱の分布が等方的になるためである。
 凹状部21には、後述する樹脂部材3が充填されることにより、金属部材2と樹脂部材3とが接合される。ここで、本実施形態の凹状部21には、内側に突出する突出部22が形成されている。このように凹状部21の内周面に、内側に突出する突出部22が形成されている場合は、凹状部21に樹脂部材3が充填されると、突出部22によるアンカー効果によって金属部材2と樹脂部材3との接合強度を高めることができる。なお、凹状部21に突出部22が形成されていなくてもよい。
 金属部材2のうちの、接合領域BFと、接合領域BFと隣接する隣接領域NFと、を包含する領域内には、金属部材2の厚みが薄くされた薄厚部23が設けられている(図3参照)。図示例では、金属部材2の裏面に孔が形成されて薄厚部23とされている。なお、金属部材2の裏面加工の形状は、孔形状に限られず、例えば、溝形状でもよい。すなわち、金属部材2が薄厚とされていればどのような形状でもよい。
 また、図示例では、薄厚部23は、接合領域BF内に形成されているが、凹状部21が接合領域BFと隣接する隣接領域NFに亘って形成されていてもよい。ここで、隣接領域NFは、後述する接合工程において、レーザを金属部材2の接合領域BFに照射しても、レーザの照射方向(金属部材2の厚み方向)への熱拡散を少なくすることができる程度の領域とする。
 なお、薄厚部23の形状は、図3の形状に限定されるものではなく、図4Aのように、接合領域BFの中央から接合領域BFの領域端に向けて徐々に薄厚にした形状や、図4Bのように、金属部材2の裏面の接合領域BFを断面視で台形状に刳り貫いて加工して薄厚にした形状や、図4Cのように金属部材2の裏面の接合領域BFを断面視で円弧状に刳り貫いて加工して薄厚にした形状であってもよい。
 また、薄厚部23には、断熱材25が備えられていてもよい(図5参照)。断熱材25の一例としては、発泡樹脂からなる断熱材が挙げられる。このように、薄厚部23に断熱材25が備えられている場合は、後述する接合構造体1の製造方法における接合工程において、接合領域BFにレーザを照射させて金属部材2と樹脂部材3とを接合させた場合、接合領域BF内に熱を閉じ込める効果を高めることができる。
 また、薄厚部23には、金属部材2を補強する補強部24を備えていてもよい(図6及び図7参照)。補強部24は、図6に示すように、金属部材2の裏面に形成された溝内に互いに対角を結ぶように配置されていてもよいし、図7に示すように、溝内の間隙を結ぶように平行に複数配置されていてもよい。このように、薄厚部23に金属部材2を補強する補強部24が備えられている場合は、金属部材2の強度を高めることができる。
 樹脂部材3は、熱可塑性樹脂、または、熱硬化性樹脂であり、熱可塑性樹脂の一例としては、PVC(ポリ塩化ビニル)、PS(ポリスチレン)、AS(アクリロニトリル・スチレン)、ABS(アクリロニトリル・ブタジエン・スチレン)、PMMA(ポリメチルメタクリレート)、PE(ポリエチレン)、PP(ポリプロピレン)、PC(ポリカーボネート)、m-PPE(変性ポリフェニレンエーテル)、PA6(ポリアミド6)、PA66(ポリアミド66)、POM(ポリアセタール)、PET(ポリエチレンテレフタレート)、PBT(ポリブチレンテレフタレート)、PSF(ポリサルホン)、PAR(ポリアリレート)、PEI(ポリエーテルイミド)、PPS(ポリフェニレンサルファイド)、PES(ポリエーテルサルホン)、PEEK(ポリエーテルエーテルケトン)、PAI(ポリアミドイミド)、LCP(液晶ポリマー)、PVDC(ポリ塩化ビニリデン)、PTFE(ポリテトラフルオロエチレン)、PCTFE(ポリクロロトリフルオロエチレン)、および、PVDF(ポリフッ化ビニリデン)が挙げられる。また、TPE(熱可塑性エラストマ)であってもよく、TPEの一例としては、TPO(オレフィン系)、TPS(スチレン系)、TPEE(エステル系)、TPU(ウレタン系)、TPA(ナイロン系)、および、TPVC(塩化ビニル系)が挙げられる。
 熱硬化性樹脂の一例としては、EP(エポキシ)、PUR(ポリウレタン)、UF(ユリアホルムアルデヒド)、MF(メラミンホルムアルデヒド)、PF(フェノールホルムアルデヒド)、UP(不飽和ポリエステル)、および、SI(シリコーン)が挙げられる。また、FRP(繊維強化プラスチック)であってもよい。
 なお、熱可塑性樹脂および熱硬化性樹脂には、充填剤が添加されていてもよい。充填剤の一例としては、無機系充填剤(ガラス繊維、無機塩類など)、金属系充填剤、有機系充填剤、および、炭素繊維などが挙げられる。
 -接合構造体の製造方法-
 次に、本実施形態に係る接合構造体1の製造方法について説明する。
 本実施形態に係る接合構造体1の製造方法は、薄厚部形成工程と、凹状部形成工程と、配置工程と、接合工程と、を備える。以下、各工程について説明するが、本実施形態に係る接合構造体の製造方法の工程の順番は、説明する順番に限定されるものではない。
 ・薄厚部形成工程
 薄厚部形成工程は、金属部材2において、接合領域BFと、接合領域BFと隣接する隣接領域NFと、を包含する領域内に、金属部材2の厚みが薄くされた薄厚部23を形成する工程である。
 薄厚部23の形成には、金属部材2をレーザ加工する方法や、予め、薄厚部23を形成するための金型を用いて、当該金型によって薄厚部23を有する金属部材2を形成する方法等が挙げられるが、これらの方法に限定されるものではない。
 なお、薄厚部23の形状は、図3の形状に限定されるものではなく、図4A~図4Cに示した形状であってもよい。また、薄厚部23には、断熱材25を形成してもよい(図5参照)。また、薄厚部23には、金属部材2を補強する補強部24を形成してもよい(図6及び図7)。
 ・凹状部形成工程
 凹状部形成工程は、金属部材2の表面の接合領域BFに、開口を有する凹状部21を形成する工程である。
 凹状部21は、レーザ加工処理、ブラスト処理、サンドペーパ処理、陽極酸化処理、放電加工処理、エッチング処理、およびプレス加工処理等の公知の方法で形成される。本実施形態では、レーザ加工処理によって凹状部21を形成する方法について詳述する。
 凹状部21を形成する加工用レーザの種類としては、パルス発振が可能なものが好ましく、ファイバレーザ、YAGレーザ、YVO4レーザ、半導体レーザ、炭酸ガスレーザ、エキシマレーザが選択でき、レーザの波長を考慮すると、ファイバレーザ、YAGレーザ、YAGレーザの第2高調波、YVO4レーザ、半導体レーザが好ましい。凹状部21は、平面的に見てほぼ円形の非貫通孔であり、金属部材2の表面に複数形成される。
 凹状部21を形成する装置の一例としては、オムロン製のファイバレーザマーカMXZ2000またはMX-Z2050を挙げることができる。このファイバレーザマーカでは、1パルスが複数のサブパルスで構成されるレーザを照射することが可能である。このため、レーザのエネルギーを深さ方向に集中させやすいので、凹状部21を形成するのに好適である。
 具体的には、金属部材2にレーザが照射されると、金属部材2が局部的に溶融されることにより凹状部21の形成が進行する。このとき、レーザが複数のサブパルスで構成されているため、溶融された金属部材2が飛散されにくく、凹状部21の近傍に堆積されやすい。そして、凹状部21の形成が進行すると、溶融された金属部材2が凹状部21の内部に堆積されることにより、凹状部21の内周面に、内側に突出する突出部22が形成される。
 なお、上記ファイバレーザマーカによる加工条件としては、サブパルスの1周期が15ns以下であることが好ましい。これは、サブパルスの1周期が15nsを超えると、熱伝導によりエネルギーが拡散しやすくなり、突出部22を有する凹状部21を形成しにくくなるためである。なお、サブパルスの1周期は、サブパルスの1回分の照射時間と、そのサブパルスの照射が終了されてから次回のサブパルスの照射が開始されるまでの間隔との合計時間である。
 また、上記ファイバレーザマーカによる加工条件としては、1パルスのサブパルス数は、2以上50以下であることが好ましい。これは、サブパルス数が50を超えると、サブパルスの単位あたりの出力が小さくなり、突出部22を有する凹状部21を形成しにくくなるためである。
 なお、凹状部形成工程は、コストの観点から薄厚部形成工程後に行うことが好ましいが、凹状部形成工程後に上述した薄厚部形成工程を行ってもよい。
 ・配置工程
 配置工程は、金属部材2の表面と樹脂部材3とを隣接配置する工程である(図1参照)。隣接配置する際に、金属部材2及び樹脂部材3を加圧することにより、後述する接合工程によって接合しやすくすることができる。
 なお、金属部材2および樹脂部材3が隣接配置されたときに、金属部材2の表面または樹脂部材3の表面にレーザ吸収層(図示省略)が設けられていてもよい。このレーザ吸収層としては、接合用のレーザの波長に対して吸収性を有する顔料系または染料系のレーザ吸収材などを適宜選択して用いることができる。このように構成すれば、接合用のレーザのエネルギーを熱に変換する変換効率の向上を図ることができる。なお、レーザ吸収層の厚みは、金属部材2の凹状部21への充填性を確保するために10μm以下が好ましい。また、樹脂部材3が要求されるレーザの透過性を満たす範囲内において、樹脂部材3にレーザ吸収材が配合されていてもよい。
 ・接合工程
 接合工程は、樹脂部材3側から金属部材2の接合領域BFにレーザを照射することにより、金属部材2の凹状部21に樹脂部材3を充填して接合させる工程である。
 具体的には、配置工程において、金属部材2と樹脂部材3とを加圧して接触させた後、接合用のレーザを金属部材2の表面に向けて照射する。
 ここで、レーザ照射は、樹脂部材3がレーザ透過性を有する場合は、樹脂部材3側からレーザを照射してもよいし、金属部材2側からレーザを照射してもよい。一方で、樹脂部材3がレーザ透過性を有しない場合は、金属部材2側からレーザを照射する。なお、接合用のレーザの種類としては、ファイバレーザ、YAGレーザ、YVO4レーザ、半導体レーザ、炭酸ガスレーザ、エキシマレーザが選択できる。
 レーザを金属部材2の接合領域BFに照射することにより、レーザのエネルギーが金属部材2の内部で熱に変換され、金属部材2の表面の温度が高くなる。これにより、金属部材2の表面近傍の樹脂部材3が溶融され、その樹脂部材3が凹状部21に充填される。本実施形態では、薄厚部23が接合領域BF内に形成されているので、レーザを金属部材2の接合領域BFに照射しても、レーザの照射方向(金属部材2の厚み方向)への熱拡散を抑制することができる。
 その後、樹脂部材3が固化されることにより、樹脂部材3が金属部材2に接合された接合構造体1を製造できる(図3参照)。
 ここで、金属部材2の接合領域BFにレーザを照射する際に、接合領域BF内においてレーザを走査させるとともに、前記走査を同一軌跡で複数回行ってもよい。この場合は、レーザの走査を同一軌跡で複数回行われるため、金属部材2の温度が上昇し、より効果的に樹脂部材3と金属部材2とを接合することができる。
 以上、説明したとおり、本実施形態の接合構造体1の製造方法によれば、金属部材2の厚みが薄くされた薄厚部23を形成する薄厚部形成工程を備えるため、その後の接合工程において金属部材2と樹脂部材3とを接合させる際に、熱拡散を抑制して少ないレーザエネルギーで金属部材2と樹脂部材3とを接合させることができる。

 (第2実施形態)
 以下、本発明の第2実施形態の接合構造体1及びこの接合構造体1の製造方法にについて図8及び9を参照しながら説明する。図8は、接合構造体の第2実施形態の断面図、図9A~9Cは、それぞれ、接合構造体の第2実施形態の変形例を示す図である。
 なお、本実施形態は、接合構造体1の薄厚部23に樹脂部材3が収容されて接合されている点が異なるだけであるので、以下、その相違点についてのみ説明し、同一の構成要素については、同一符号を付してその説明を省略する。
 -接合構造体の構成-
 まず、本発明の第2実施形態の接合構造体1について説明する。
 本実施形態の接合構造体1は、金属部材2の表面側を加工して薄厚部23が設けられている(図8参照)。図示例では、薄厚部23は、接合領域BF内に形成されている。
 薄厚部23には、凹状部21が形成されており、この凹状部21に樹脂部材3が充填されることにより、金属部材2と樹脂部材3とが接合される。なお、凹状部21には、内側に突出する突出部22が形成されているが、突出部22が形成されていなくてもよい。
 なお、薄厚部23の形状は、図8の形状に限定されるものではなく、図9Aのように、接合領域BFの表面において、中央部が接合領域BFの表面と面一とならない程度に隆起させて断面視凸形状として薄厚にした形状や、図9Bのように、金属部材2の表面の接合領域BFを断面視で台形状に刳り貫いて加工して薄厚にした形状や、図9Cのように、金属部材2の表面の接合領域BFを断面視で円弧状に刳り貫いて加工して薄厚にした形状であってもよい。
 樹脂部材3は、図8及び9A~9Cに示すとおり、接合領域BFの大きさと略同一の大きさ(つまり、薄厚部23に相当する溝内に収容される程度の大きさ)とされているが、この例に限られない。すなわち、樹脂部材3を金属部材2と同程度の大きさとし、樹脂部材3の表面が、薄厚部23に相当する溝内に収容される程度に膨出されていてもよい。
 -接合構造体の製造方法-
 次に、本実施形態に係る接合構造体1の製造方法について説明する。
 ・薄厚部形成工程
 薄厚部形成工程により、金属部材2の表面を加工して薄厚部23とする。なお、薄厚部23の形状は、図8の形状に限定されるものではなく、図9A~9Cに示した形状であってもよい。
 ・凹状部形成工程
 凹状部形成工により、金属部材2の薄厚部23に凹状部21を形成する。このとき、レーザが複数のサブパルスで構成されている場合は、凹状部21の内周面に、内側に突出する突出部22を形成できる。
 ・配置工程及び接合工程
 配置工程により、金属部材2の表面と樹脂部材3とを隣接配置する。そして、金属部材2と樹脂部材3とを加圧して接触させた後、接合用のレーザを金属部材2の表面に向けて照射する。これにより、金属部材2の表面近傍の樹脂部材3が溶融され、その樹脂部材3が凹状部21に充填される。
 その後、樹脂部材3が固化されることにより、樹脂部材3が金属部材2に接合された接合構造体1を製造できる。
 以上、説明したとおり、本実施形態の接合構造体1の製造方法によっても、金属部材2の厚みが薄くされた薄厚部23が形成されるため、金属部材2と樹脂部材3とを接合させる際に、少ないレーザエネルギーで金属部材2と樹脂部材3とを接合させることができる。
 (第3実施形態)
 以下、本発明の第3実施形態の接合構造体及びこの接合構造体の製造方法にについて図10~12を参照しながら説明する。
 図10は、接合構造体の第3実施形態の断面図、図11は、接合構造体の第3実施形態の変形例の断面図、図12は、接合構造体の第3実施形態の他の変形例の斜視図である。
 なお、本実施形態は、接合構造体1の薄厚部23の構造が異なるだけであるので、以下、その相違点についてのみ説明し、同一の構成要素については、同一符号を付してその説明を省略する。
 -接合構造体の構成-
 まず、本発明の第3実施形態の接合構造体1について説明する。
 本実施形態の接合構造体1は、金属部材2の裏面にスリットを形成して薄厚部23が形成されている(図10参照)。
 薄厚部23は、図示例では、少なくとも隣接領域NFを含む領域内に2つ形成されている。なお、薄厚部23の数は、1つでもよいし、3つ以上であってもよい。また、薄厚部23は、隣接領域NFを含む領域に亘って接合領域BF内に形成されていてもよい。
 凹状部21は、金属部材2の表面における接合領域BFに形成されている。この凹状部21に樹脂部材3が充填されることにより、金属部材2と樹脂部材3とが接合される。なお、凹状部21には、内側に突出する突出部22が形成されているが、突出部22が形成されていなくてもよい。
 なお、薄厚部23には、断熱材25が備えられていてもよいし(図11参照)、金属部材2を補強する補強部24が備えられていてもよい(図12参照)。また、補強部24は、スリットの間隙を結ぶように平行に配置されていてもよいし、スリット内に対角状に配置されていてもよい。
 -接合構造体の製造方法-
 次に、本実施形態に係る接合構造体1の製造方法について説明する。
 ・薄厚部形成工程
 薄厚部形成工程により、金属部材2の裏面にスリットを形成して薄厚部23とする。なお、薄厚部23には、断熱材25を形成してもよいし(図11参照)、金属部材2を補強する補強部24を形成してもよい。
 ・凹状部形成工程
 凹状部形成工程により、金属部材2の表面における接合領域BFに、凹状部21を形成する。このとき、レーザが複数のサブパルスで構成されている場合は、凹状部21の内周面に、内側に突出する突出部22を形成できる。
 ・配置工程及び接合工程
 配置工程により、金属部材2の表面と樹脂部材3とを隣接配置する。そして、金属部材2と樹脂部材3とを加圧して接触させた後、接合工程により、接合用のレーザを金属部材2の表面に向けて照射する。
 レーザを金属部材2の接合領域BFに照射することにより、金属部材2の表面近傍の樹脂部材3が溶融され、その樹脂部材3が凹状部21に充填される。
 本実施形態では、薄厚部23は、少なくとも隣接領域NFを含む領域内に形成されているので、接合領域BFにレーザを照射しても、薄厚部23を介して接合領域BFから外部に熱拡散することを抑制できる。すなわち、薄厚部23が形成されていることにより、接合領域BF内にレーザエネルギーを留めることができる。
 その後、樹脂部材3が固化されることにより、樹脂部材3が金属部材2に接合された接合構造体1を製造できる。
 以上、説明したとおり、本実施形態の接合構造体1の製造方法によっても、金属部材2の厚みが薄くされた薄厚部23が形成されるため、金属部材2と樹脂部材3とを接合させる際に、少ないレーザエネルギーで金属部材2と樹脂部材3とを接合させることができる。
