Abstract

The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a hot stamped body, the method including: a hot-rolling step; a coiling step; a cold-rolling step; a continuous annealing step; and a hot stamping step, in which the continuous annealing step includes a heating step of heating the cold-rolled steel sheet to a temperature range of equal to or higher than Ac 1 ° C. and lower than Ac 3 ° C.; a cooling step of cooling the heated cold-rolled steel sheet from the highest heating temperature to 660° C. at a cooling rate of equal to or less than 10° C./s; and a holding step of holding the cooled cold-rolled steel sheet in a temperature range of 550° C. to 660° C. for one minute to 10 minutes.

coiling the hot-rolled steel sheet which is subjected to hot-rolling;
cold-rolling the coiled hot-rolled steel sheet to obtain a cold-rolled steel sheet;
continuously annealing the cold-rolled steel sheet which is subjected to cold-rolling to obtain a steel sheet for hot stamping; and
performing hot stamping by heating the steel sheet for hot stamping which is continuously annealed so that a heated portion at which a highest heating temperature is equal to or higher than Ac 3 ° C., and a non-heated portion at which a highest heating temperature is equal to or lower than Ac1° C. co-exist in the steel sheet,
wherein the continuous annealing includes:
heating the cold-rolled steel sheet to a temperature range of equal to or higher than Ac 1 ° C. and lower than Ac 3 ° C.;
cooling the heated cold-rolled steel sheet from the highest heating temperature to 660° C. at a cooling rate of equal to or less than 10° C./s; and
