Abstract
An overlapping part of a first member and a second member is joined using a tool for friction stir spot welding and a rivet. The first member is disposed on a side where the tool is press-fitted first, and the second member is disposed on a side where the tool is press-fitted last, so that the overlapping part is formed. The tool is press-fitted into the overlapping part to perform friction stirring, thereby forming a friction stirred part in the overlapping part. The rivet is press-fitted into the friction stirred part from the first member side.
Claims19
A joining method using a tool for friction stir welding and a fastener to join an overlapping part formed including a first member on a tool side and a second member disposed below the first member, the joining method comprising:
- press-fitting the tool into the overlapping part to perform friction stirring, and forming a friction stirred part in the overlapping part;
- and
- after forming the friction stirred part, press-fitting the fastener into the friction stirred part from a first member side.
A joined body of an overlapping part formed including a first member and a second member,
- the joined body comprising:
- an overlapping part in which the first member is disposed on one end side in an overlapping direction overlapping the second member disposed on another end side in the overlapping direction;
- a friction stirred part provided in the overlapping part;
- and
- a fastener press-fitted into the friction stirred part from the first member side after forming the friction stirred part.
