Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, this method is also heated in a furnace, so it must be heated for a long time, during which time the zinc volatilizes
Therefore, there is a problem that it is necessary to pay special attention to zinc including the volatilized part, and it costs a lot.

Embodiment

[0130] Examples are shown below.

[0131] As inventive examples 1 to 6 and comparative examples 1 to 3, GI steel sheets with a composition of 0.24%C-0.2%Si-1.2%Mn-0.02%Ti-10ppmB were welded by electric welding, followed by press working, electrical heating and spray cooling , thereby manufacturing the shaft beam, and measured the micro-Vickers hardness at a depth of 50 μm from the surface of the base metal, the micro-Vickers hardness at a depth of 200 μm from the surface of the base metal, and fatigue properties. In addition, in Inventive Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2, the contact portions were integrated by alloying.

[0132] Table 1 shows various setting conditions and measurement results. A is the weight per unit area (g / m 2 ), T is the highest heating temperature (°C), t is the holding time (hours), B is the heat treatment parameter, X is the micro-Vickers hardness at a depth of 200 μm from the surface of the base metal, and Y is the depth of 50 μm fro...

Abstract

The hardened steel tube member is formed from a GI zinc-coated steel tube. The cross-section, which is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, at the center of the longitudinal direction of the GI zinc-coated steel tube is substantially a V-shape, the V-shape comprising a contacting section in which the inner surfaces of the GI zinc-coated steel tube contact each other. The contacting section is integrated by a Fe-Zn alloy phase. The micro Vickers hardness at a depth of 50 µm from the surface layer of the base metal is 95% or more of the micro Vickers hardness at a depth of 200 µm from the surface layer of the base metal.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a quenched steel pipe member, an automobile axle beam using the quenched steel pipe member, and a method for manufacturing the quenched steel pipe member. This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2012-207249 for which it applied in Japan on September 20, 2012, and uses the content here. Background technique [0002] Axle beams for automobiles are members that connect the left and right axles, and loads are repeatedly applied during driving, so high fatigue characteristics are required. [0003] Therefore, as shown in Patent Document 1, there is proposed a method of manufacturing an automotive axle beam in which fatigue properties are ensured by press-forming a steel pipe followed by quenching to increase its strength. [0004] However, in this method, since quenching is performed in a furnace, the heating time is long, the outermost layer of the member is decarburized and softened, and ...
