Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A joint structure includes: a first steel plate; a second steel plate disposed along the first steel plate; a laser welding part that joins together a joint face part, which configures a first part of the first steel plate, and the second steel plate from one side in a plate thickness direction of the first steel plate and the second steel plate; and a fastening member that is screwed into, and fastens together, the second steel plate and a general face part from the one side in the plate thickness direction, the general face part configuring a second part of the first steel plate, being provided adjacent to the joint face part, and being disposed so as to be spaced apart from the second steel plate at the one side in the plate thickness direction.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A joint structure, comprising: a first steel plate; a second steel plate disposed along the first steel plate; a laser welding part that joins together a joint face part, which configures a first part of the first steel plate, with the second steel plate, from one side in a plate thickness direction of the first steel plate and the second steel plate; and a fastening member that is screwed into, and fastens together, the second steel plate and a general face part, by screw cutting the general face part and the second steel plate from the one side in the plate thickness direction, the general face part configuring a second part of the first steel plate, being provided adjacent to the joint face part, being disposed so as to be spaced apart from the second steel plate at the one side in the plate thickness direction, and comprising a seating face part at which a part of the general face part protrudes toward the one side in the plate thickness direction, the fastening member being fastened at the seating face part. 2. A joint structure, comprising: a first steel plate; a second steel plate disposed along the first steel plate; a laser welding part that joins together a joint face part, which configures a first part of the first steel plate, with the second steel plate, from one side in a plate thickness direction of the first steel plate and the second steel plate; a fastening member that is screwed into, and fastens together, the second steel plate and a general face part, by screw cutting the general face part and the second steel plate from the one side in the plate thickness direction, the general face part configuring a second part of the first steel plate, being provided adjacent to the joint face part, being disposed so as to be spaced apart from the second steel plate at the one side in the plate thickness direction, and comprising a seating face part at which a part of the general face part protrudes toward the one side in the plate thickness direction, the fastening member being fastened at the seating face part; and a burr portion produced by screw cutting the general face part and the second steel plate by the fastening member that fits between the general face part and the second steel plate.
