    摘要: A hybrid bumper assembly for a vehicle includes a steel reinforcement beam and aluminum crush cans attached to end portions of the steel reinforcement beam. The reinforcement beam has a multi-tubular shape that is formed by a high-strength steel sheet that is roll formed to provide at least two tubular portions. A crush can has an interfacing portion that is coupled to an end portion of the reinforcement beam. The end portions of the reinforcement beam and the interfacing portion of the crush cans may be configured to attach together using a select joining technology in a manner that minimizes or eliminates bimetallic or galvanic corrosion between the reinforcement beam and the crush cans.

    摘要: A junction structure includes a first material that is a metallic material, a third material that is a metallic material and is weldable to the first material, and a second material which is a nonferrous metallic material or a nonmetallic material. The second material is sandwiched and fixed between the first material and the third material by lap joining. At least one of the first material or the third material has a weld zone where the first material and the third material are melted and joined together, and at least one exhaust groove or at least one exhaust hole around the weld zone. The at least one exhaust groove or the at least one exhaust hole penetrates a thickness of the at least one of the first material or the third material.

    摘要: A welded joint comprising: a pair of steel base materials having a sheet thickness of 0.4 to 4.0 mm, and at least one of which has a tensile strength of 780 MPa or more; and a weld metal that welds the pair of steel base materials, wherein, when the weld metal is seen in plan view, a weld toe of the weld metal has peaks and valleys, an average distance in a direction orthogonal to a weld line direction between a top point of a peak and a bottom point of a valley that are adjacent to one another is 3.0 mm or less, and an average number of a total of peaks and valleys, at which the distance in the direction orthogonal to the weld line direction between the top point of the peak and the bottom point of the valley that are adjacent to one another is 0.1 mm to 3.0 mm, is 2 to 30/15 mm, and an automobile component having the welded joint.

    摘要: An assembly is provided that includes first and second end plates adapted to be coaxially aligned when in use. One or more members extend from the end plates or an annular ring, the annular ring provided between the end plates, the other of the end plates or annular ring comprising one or more first slots at one end thereof to be aligned with and for receiving the one or more members of the first end plate, and one or more second slots at the other end thereof to be aligned with and for receiving the one or more members. Resilient sealing members are provided around the one or more members between the end plates and annular ring, and an urging mechanism urges the first and second end plates towards the annular ring to deform the first and second resilient sealing members to engage the inner wall of the pipe.
