されない。Friction stir welding is a process in which members to be joined are brought close to each other, and the two are sufficiently stirred and mixed to be joined. Insufficient agitation causes a decrease in quality such as a decrease in strength due to generation of defects and a decrease in appearance. For this reason, in order to ensure the quality of the joint, it is important to sufficiently stir and mix the members to be joined. Since the friction stir welding is performed by rotating the rotary tool, the flow of the member to be welded due to the friction between the rotary tool and the member to be welded is mainly in only the rotation direction. Almost no agitation in the direction of the rotation axis.

It can be clearly seen that little stirring was performed in the (overlapping direction).

る(以下、文献4という。)。When the butted portions are joined by the friction stir welding method, the members to be joined are sufficiently stirred, and a joint of required quality can be obtained. This is because the contact surface of the member to be joined is parallel to the rotation axis of the rotary tool, that is, the contact surface is oblique in a direction perpendicular to the rotation direction of the rotary tool, and the rotation of the rotary tool agitates and mixes the contact surface. It is known that the mechanical properties in this case are better than those of conventional arc welding. This is, for example, Science and

The flow of the member to be joined due to the friction between the rotary tool and the member to be joined is mainly in the rotation direction only. Almost no agitation in the direction of the rotation axis. Therefore, when the joining surface and the rotating direction of the rotary tool are parallel as in the case of lap joining, the mechanical characteristics are not large.

A black line along the horizontal direction is recognized in the upper and lower central portions of the joint in FIG. This is an oxide film existing on the surface of the member to be joined before joining. The oxide film existing on the surface of the member to be joined remains almost unchanged from the state before joining even after joining, and is present on the overlapping surface. This indicates that sufficient stirring is not performed on the overlapping surface parallel to the rotation direction.
Therefore, when a tensile test is performed, the two members to be joined are separated from each other along the overlapping surface. That is, the strength is small. For this reason, it is difficult to employ lap joining as a strength member.

る。FIG. 2 shows a state after joining, and hatching indicates a joining bead (heat affected zone). The size of the joining bead is slightly larger than the outer shape of the inserted rotary tool 250. According to this, the rotation axis of the rotary tool 250 is vertical, but the overlapping surfaces 310b and 320b are inclined with respect to the horizontal plane. Therefore, it can be said that the overlapping surfaces 310b and 320b are inclined with respect to the axis of the rotary tool 250. Therefore, the overlapping surfaces 310b and 320b are inclined with respect to the rotation direction of the rotary tool 250. Therefore, the member 3
10 and 320 are stirred and mixed according to the inclination angle of the overlapping surfaces 310b and 320b. That is, it is mixed also in the axial direction of the rotary tool 250. Therefore, even if there is an oxide film before joining, it is mixed well. For this reason, even if the members 310 and 320 are pulled right and left, high-strength bonding can be obtained. Therefore, the members 310, 3
20 can be used as a strength member for pulling left and right.

The end of the plate portion and the end of the t1 portion of the protrusion 330e are substantially flush with each other. The upper surface of the projection 330e is inclined. That is, the upper surface of the protrusion 330e is orthogonal to the axis of the rotary tool 250. According to this, unnecessary portions in the member 330 can be reduced.

The sensor of the friction stir welding apparatus detects the groove 36 and moves the rotary tool 250 along the groove 36. For this reason, the positional relationship between the rotary tool 250 and the sensor when joining the butted portions of the face plates 12b and 22b can be used as it is. The relationship between the other rotary tools and the joints is as described above.

A, 13B (23A, 23B) lies on a vertical line passing at or near the vertex of the truss. For eccentricity, the thickness of the ribs 13A, 13B (23A, 23B) is increased, the shape of the arc connecting the rib and the face plate, the thickness of the connection portion,
Corresponding to the thickness of 7, 27, etc. The joining of the connecting member 30 is performed by joining with the seat 17 and then with the seat 27.
If two rotating tools are used, both ends of the connecting member 30 can be joined at the same time.

接合できるものである。According to this, the joining of the connecting members 30 is lap joining, not butt joining. For this reason, the connecting member 30 can be joined even if the gap between the two hollow profiles 10 and 20 changes due to the manufacturing tolerance of the two hollow profiles 10 and 20 and the tolerance of the interval between the arrangement of the two hollow profiles. is there. Particularly, when a large number of hollow members are arranged and joined at one time, an error increases. In this case, since it is lap joining, it can be easily joined.

きる。The insertion force at the time of joining the connecting members 30 is as follows:
Two ribs 13 arranged toward the axis of the rotary tool 250
A, 13B (23A, 23B). For this reason, the bending of the ribs 13A, 13B (23A, 23B) can be suppressed. 13A and 13B (23A and 23B) can be made thinner and lighter. Of course, the bending of the face plates 11, 21, 30 can also be suppressed. Rib 13
Since the beds 240 supporting A, 13B (23A, 23B) are at the same height, bending of the face plates 12, 22 can also be prevented.

The joint between the hollow members 10 and 20 also has a truss structure. Therefore, the out-of-plane bending rigidity is improved, and the weight can be reduced. Since the connecting members 30, the face plates 12b and 22b and the ribs 13A and 23A between the ribs 13A and 23A substantially constitute a truss, these portions are not particularly weak. However, the thickness should be considered.

According to this, the width of the connection member 30 becomes large, and it becomes necessary to increase the thickness of the connection member 30, and the weight becomes large. However, it can be used when a large opening is required for insertion of the friction stir welding apparatus. By making the inclination angles θ1 and θ2 of the rib the same, it is possible to form an isosceles triangle. According to this, the plate thickness of the ribs 13A and 13B (23A and 23B) can be made the same. The thickness of the ribs 13A and 23A is shown in FIG.
It could be thinner than However, if the size of the isosceles triangular truss is made the same as the size of the truss at other places, the width of the connecting member 30 becomes large.

The distance from the intersection of the rib 13B (23B) and the face plate 12 (22) to the end of the hollow profile 10 (20) can be reduced. Therefore, the width of the connecting member 30 can be made similar to the width of the connecting member 30 in FIG.

できる。In the above embodiment, the joining of the connecting members 30 is performed by friction stir welding, but may be performed in combination with arc welding. Since the friction stir welding is lap welding, the joining strength is lower than that of butt welding. Therefore, the butted portions of the end portions of the connecting members 30 and the face plates 21 and 31 are arc-welded. The location of the arc welding is, for example, a region where the strength is low. Also, arc welding can be used for repair.
