Method for producing steel plate member

A method for producing a steel plate member (SPM), including: a quenching step for heating the SPM to a temperature higher than an austenite transformation finish temperature A3 and subsequently cooling the SPM at a cooling rate (CR) faster than an upper critical CR; and a tempering step for reheating a second region of the SPM to a temperature higher than an austenite transformation start temperature A1 without reheating a first region of the SPM after quenching and subsequently cooling the SPM at a CR slower than a lower critical CR. In the cooling process of the tempering step, the shape of the second region is corrected in a temperature range from a temperature equal to or lower than A1 to a temperature equal to or higher than a temperature at which transformation into ferrite and pearlite is finished while maintaining the CR slower than the lower critical CR.

In heating step S101, a steel sheet is heated and made in an austenite state. In heating step S101, the whole region of the steel sheet is evenly heated, and the whole region of the steel sheet is made in the austenite state. In cooling step S102, only a first region set on the steel sheet in the austenite state is forcibly cooled (rapidly cooled) within a temperature range of a range where martensitic transformation does not occur. In cooling step S102, a second region other than the first region is cooled by natural cooling to maintain a state in which a temperature is higher than in the first region.
