Abstract
A stainless steel and copper joined body is provided. A fillet welded lap joint that is a joined portion of stainless steel and copper is formed at an end of the copper. The Cu/Fe ratio of the fillet welded lap joint is 2.3 or more. The fillet welded lap joint includes multiple welding points that are continuous in the welding direction. The average diameter Dmean (mm) of the welding points and the copper thickness (mm) satisfy the relationship of the following Formula (1). The overlap ratio OR of welding points is 10% or more and 80% or less. 2 t 0.5 ≤ D mean ≤ 10 t 0.5 ( 1 )

A stainless steel and copper joining method, wherein overlapping stainless steel and copper materials to be joined are joined by fillet welding,
- the fillet welding is TIG welding,
- the TIG welding comprises
- positioning an electrode at a copper side of the overlapping portion of the materials to be joined, and performing multiple heat inputs under conditions satisfying (a) to (e) below,
- (a) a tilt angle α of the electrode in a perpendicular-to-welding direction:
- −10° to +60°
- here, the thickness direction of the materials to be joined is the reference angle (0°), and a side where a leading end of the electrode is pointed towards the copper side is +ve and a side where the leading end of the electrode is pointed towards the stainless steel side is −ve,
- (b) electrode height:
- more than 0 mm and 3.0 mm or less
- (c) each heat input position in the perpendicular-to-welding direction:
- 0 to +6×t (mm)
- here, t is the copper thickness (mm), an end of the copper at the surface of the overlapping portion is the reference position (0), the copper side is +ve and the stainless steel side is −ve,
- (d) distance interval in the welding direction between each heat input point:
- 20% or more to 90% or less of a diameter Dk−1 (mm) of a welding point formed by the immediately preceding heat input,
- (e) time interval between each heat input:
- 20% or more of the welding time (s) of the immediately preceding heat input,
- and further, at each heat input, welding current I (A), welding time d (s), and the copper thickness t (mm) satisfy the relationship of the following Formula (3):
