A welding structure of a press-formed part made by combining and joining two parts formed by press-forming and each having an opening portion on at least one side of a cross-section, while the opening portions face each other, and includes a step portion that is provided by forming a bent projection projecting outwardly on a tip end portion of a side wall portion of a lower side part, partially or entirely on a joining surface. A tip end side of the step portion is fitted into the opening portion of an upper side part, and the step portion of the lower side part and the tip end of a side wall portion of the upper side part are linearly joined by arc welding.

The present invention relates to a method for butt welding at least two metal sheets, namely a first metal sheet and a second metal sheet, wherein, in particular, a tailored blank is produced from the metal sheets.

A first abutting surface, a first welding surface, a first facing surface are formed in a differential case. A second abutting surface, a second welding surface, and a second facing surface are formed in a differential ring gear. In an installing step, the first abutting surface and the second abutting surface are inserted, positions of the differential case and the differential ring gear are determined in an axial direction, a separation portion that spaces the first welding surface and the second welding surface away from each other and that has a non-linear portion is formed, and a void is formed between the first facing surface and the second facing surface. In a welding step, a laser is irradiated to the separation portion and the first welding surface and the second welding surface are welded.

A component arrangement and a method for producing the component arrangement are provided. The component arrangement includes a first component and a second component, which are arranged in an overlapping arrangement and are connected by a laser fillet weld and at two fixing points arranged laterally offset from the laser fillet weld, one of the components is provided with at least one projection, which projects in the direction of the other component and which is arranged and formed such that, when the components are positioned correctly in relation to one another and are pressed together at the fixing points, a flange portion of the first component, set at an angle in the region of the laser fillet weld to be formed, is pressed onto the second component by way of the component edge. For sealing the component arrangement, the fixing points are arranged set back into the overlapping region with respect to the laser fillet weld, and at least between the fixing points there is formed a continuous bonding region, in which the first and second components are bonded to one another.

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.

A working cylinder has a cylinder tube, a first closure part, a second closure part and a piston unit. The first closure part is arranged at a first cylinder tube end and the second closure part is arranged at a second cylinder tube end, the cylinder tube and the first and second closure parts define a cylinder interior. The piston unit defines at least one working chamber in the cylinder interior. The piston unit slidably passes through the first closure part. The first closure part us joined to the cylinder tube in a positive-locking manner by a first circumferential laser ring weld seam. The second closure part is joined to the cylinder tube in a positive-locking manner by a second circumferential laser ring weld seam, and each of the laser ring weld seams define a fluid-tight sealing plane. At least one of the closure parts has an axially opening that is a circumferential concave receiving contour in which the cylinder tube engages. The receiving contour radially overlaps the cylinder tube, and a ring weld seam inclination angle thereof is 110 to 160 degrees.

The present invention provides a lap fillet arc welding joint including a first metal sheet, a second metal sheet, and a weld bead. A region of the first metal sheet on one end side is bent. In a first direction, a position of a tip end of the bent region of the first metal sheet overlaps a region of the second metal sheet on one end side. In a second direction, an amount of deviation between a central axis of a region connected to the bent region of the first metal sheet and a central axis of the region of the second metal sheet on one end side is ½ times or less of average sheet thicknesses of the first metal sheet and the second metal sheet. A joint portion length is two times or more of the sheet thickness of the second metal sheet.

An ignition coil includes a not-illustrated coil, a plate assembly, and a case assembly. The plate assembly and the case assembly are combined with each other by laser welding at a recess and a rib (projection) which are respective abutting portions, thereby forming storage spaces for storing the coil.

A variable gage blank is formed from a set of components joined by a joining process. The set of components include a web, a first flange, and a second flange. The components have respective thicknesses. The first flange and the second flange may be modified to include a transition region with a variable thickness that terminates on an edge having a thickness substantially similar to a thickness of the web.

A method of welding a support on a slide profile, which comprises: a) providing a support having a wall with an inner face, and providing a profile having a wall with an outer face, b) positioning the interface support with the inner face of its wall against the outer face of the wall of the profile, c) creating a welding joint between the wall of the support and the wall of the profile by moving a laser beam relative to the wall of the profile, while keeping the laser beam in a position such that it successively passes through, from an emitting source: the wall of the profile, then the wall of the support, while remaining within the material of the wall of the support.
