The thermoplastic resin portion 30 will not easily detach from the thermosetting resin molded body 40 because the thermoplastic resin portion 30 has the anchor portion, the joining portion, and the connecting portion. Therefore, the peeling strength of the thermoplastic resin portion 30 from the thermosetting resin molded body 40 improves, and the joint strength between the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40 improves.

(22) In the resin joined body according to this example embodiment, the number of thermoplastic resin portions 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40 is not particularly limited. In FIG. 1, there is only one thermoplastic resin portion 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40, but there may also be two or more thermoplastic resin portions 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40. The number of thermoplastic resin portions 30 may be selected to match the required joint strength between the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40.

The method for compounding thermosetting resin and fiber to obtain the thermosetting resin molded body 40 is also not particularly limited. Any one of a variety of well-known methods may be used depending on the purpose. Prepreg in which thermosetting resin and fiber have been compounded may be used to manufacture the thermosetting resin molded body 40.

(24) Next, an example embodiment of a manufacturing method of the resin joined body will be described with reference to the drawings. In the description below, like members that are the same as those in the example embodiment of the resin joined body will be denoted by like reference characters, and redundant descriptions may be omitted. The sizes of the members in the drawings are conceptual, and the relative relationship of size between members is not limited to what is shown.

(25) FIG. 2 is a sectional view illustrating a manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to a first example embodiment. In the manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to the first example embodiment, the thermoplastic resin molded body 20, and the thermosetting resin molded body 40 having the thermoplastic resin portion 30 provided exposed on a portion of the surface, are prepared. The method for preparing the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40 are not particularly limited. For example, the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40 may be manufactured by a person performing a process of joining the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40 himself or herself, which will be described later, or the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40 may be acquired by purchase or the like. The material and method and the like used to manufacture the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40 are as described above.

(26) In FIG. 2, the shape of the thermoplastic resin portion 30 provided exposed on a portion of the surface of the thermosetting resin molded body 40 is sheet-shaped.

(27) In the manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to the first example embodiment, the resin joined body 10 is manufactured by joining the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 to the thermosetting resin molded body 40 by welding the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 to the thermoplastic resin portion 30.

(28) The method for joining the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 to the thermosetting resin molded body 40 by welding the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 to the thermoplastic resin portion 30 is not particularly limited, i.e., any of a variety of well-known welding methods may be used. Some examples of the welding method that may be used in this example embodiment include ultrasonic welding, vibration welding, induction welding, high-frequency welding, laser welding, thermal welding, and spin welding. Of these, ultrasonic welding and vibration welding are preferable.

(29) The strength of the resin joined body is further improved by using vibration welding as the welding method. On the other hand, the degree of freedom in structure and design of the joined thermoplastic resin molded body and the thermosetting resin molded body increases using ultrasonic welding as the welding method.

(30) Vibration welding is a method by which one resin molded body (i.e., either the thermoplastic resin molded body or the thermosetting resin molded body) is oscillated horizontally against a contact surface of the other resin molded body (i.e., the thermosetting resin molded body or the thermoplastic resin molded body) while a load is applied to the thermoplastic resin molded body and the thermosetting resin molded body that are to be welded together, using a press or the like, and the two resin molded bodies are welded together using the frictional heat generated by this vibration.

(31) On the other hand, ultrasonic welding is a method by which electrical energy is converted into vibration energy by an ultrasonic oscillator, and this vibration energy is applied to contact surfaces of the thermoplastic resin molded body and the thermosetting resin molded body that are contacting one another, such that the two resin molded bodies are welded together using the frictional heat generated in the contact surfaces.

(32) In the manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to the first example embodiment, the number of thermoplastic resin portions 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40 is not particularly limited. In FIG. 2, there is only one thermoplastic resin portion 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40, but there may also be two or more thermoplastic resin portions 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40. The number of thermoplastic resin portions 30 may be selected to match the required joint strength between the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40.

(33) Also, by having two or more of the thermoplastic resin portions 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40, weld flash generated when the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 is welded to the thermoplastic resin portions 30 (i.e., excess thermoplastic resin generated when joining the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 to the thermosetting resin molded body 40 by welding) is interposed between the thermosetting resin molded body 40 and the thermoplastic resin molded body 20, so the joint strength between the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40 is further improved.

(34) FIG. 3 is a sectional view illustrating a modified example of the manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to the first example embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3, the thermoplastic resin portion 30 may also be provided protruding from a surface of the thermosetting resin molded body 40.

(35) FIG. 4 is a sectional view illustrating a manufacturing method of a resin joined body according to a second example embodiment. In the manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to this second example embodiment, the thermoplastic resin portion 30 has an anchor portion 32 that is embedded in the thermosetting resin molded body 40, a joining portion 34 that is exposed on a portion of the surface of the thermosetting resin molded body 40 and welded to the thermoplastic resin molded body 20, and a connecting portion 36 that connects the anchor portion 32 to the joining portion 34.

(36) In the manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to the second example embodiment, the joining portion 34 is connected via the connecting portion 36 to the anchor portion 32 that is embedded in the thermosetting resin molded body 40, so the thermoplastic resin portion 30 will not easily detach from the thermosetting resin molded body 40. Therefore, the peeling strength of the thermoplastic resin portion 30 from the thermosetting resin molded body 40 improves, so the joint strength between the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40 improves.

(37) The welding method in the manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to the second example embodiment is preferably ultrasonic welding or vibration welding, and more preferably vibration welding.

(38) In the manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to the second example embodiment, the number of thermoplastic resin portions 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40 is not particularly limited. In FIG. 4, there is only one thermoplastic resin portion 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40, but there may also be two or more thermoplastic resin portions 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40. The number of thermoplastic resin portions 30 may be selected to match the required joint strength between the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40.

(39) Also, by having two or more of the thermoplastic resin portions 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40, weld flash generated when the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 is welded to the they resin portions 30 is interposed between the thermosetting resin molded body 40 and the thermoplastic resin molded body 20, so the joint strength between the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40 further improves.

(40) FIG. 5 is a sectional view illustrating a modified example of the resin joined body according to the second example embodiment. As shown in FIG. 5, the joining portion 34 of the thermoplastic resin portion 30 may also be provided protruding from a surface of the thermosetting resin molded body 40.

(41) FIG. 6 is a sectional view illustrating a manufacturing method of a resin joined body according to a third example embodiment. In the manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to this third example embodiment, the thermoplastic resin portion 30 has an anchor portion 32 that is embedded in the thermosetting resin molded body 40, and a protruding portion 38 provided protruding from the anchor portion 32 toward the surface of the thermosetting resin molded body 40 and protruding from this surface.

(42) Therefore, when the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 is joined to the thermosetting resin molded body 40 by welding the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 to the thermoplastic resin portion 30, a tip end of the protruding portion 38 contacts the thermoplastic resin molded body 20. When vibration welding is performed, for example, while the tip end of the protruding portion 38 is contacting the thermoplastic resin molded body 20, the tip end of the protruding portion 38 generates heat easily by the friction so heat generating efficiency improves, and the protruding portion 38 is able to be easily joined to the thermoplastic resin molded body 20. As a result, workability and weldability improve.

(43) The area of the protruding portion 38 when viewed from a direction orthogonal to the joining surface of the thermosetting resin molded body 40 that joins with the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 is preferably smaller than the area of the anchor portion 32 when viewed from a direction orthogonal to the joining surface of the thermosetting resin molded body 40 that joins with the thermoplastic resin molded body 20. Making the area of the protruding portion 38 small makes it possible to further increase the contact pressure between the protruding portion 38 and the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 when performing vibration welding, for example, while the tip end of the protruding portion 38 is contacting the thermoplastic resin molded body 20, and thus further improves heat generating efficiency.

(44) Furthermore, the thermoplastic resin portion 30 has the anchor portion 32 embedded in the thermosetting resin molded body 40, so the thermoplastic resin portion 30 will not easily detach from the thermosetting resin molded body 40. Therefore, the peeling strength of the thermoplastic resin portion 30 from the thermosetting resin molded body 40 improves, so the joint strength between the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40 improves.

(45) In the manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to the third example embodiment, the number of thermoplastic resin portions 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40 is not particularly limited. In FIG. 6, there is only one thermoplastic resin portion 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40, but there may also be two or more thermoplastic resin portions 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40. The number of thermoplastic resin portions 30 may be selected to match the required joint strength between the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40.

(46) Also, by having two or more of the thermoplastic resin portions 30 provided on the thermosetting resin molded body 40, weld flash generated when the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 is welded to the thermoplastic resin portions 30 is interposed between the thermosetting resin molded body 40 and the thermoplastic resin molded body 20, so the joint strength between the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40 further improves.

(47) Vibration welding is preferable as the welding method in the manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to the third example embodiment.

(48) FIG. 7 is a sectional view illustrating a manufacturing method of a resin joined body according to a fourth example embodiment. In the manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to the fourth example embodiment, a groove 42 is provided in the thermosetting resin molded body 40 around an exposed portion of the thermoplastic resin portion 30.

(49) The size of the groove 42 is not particularly limited. By estimating the amount of generated weld flash of the thermoplastic resin from the penetration amount of thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and thermosetting resin molded body 40 when welding the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 to the thermoplastic resin portion 30, and setting the volume of the groove 42 to match the amount of generated weld flash, the majority of the weld flash that is generated is able to be filled into the groove 42. Therefore, the amount of weld flash generated in the location where the thermoplastic resin molded body 20 and the thermosetting resin molded body 40 are joined together is able to be further reduced, which is desirable.

(50) With the manufacturing method of the resin joined body according to the fourth example embodiment, the thermoplastic resin portion 30 has the anchor portion 32 and the protruding portion 38, but the structure of the thermoplastic resin portion 30 is not particularly limited.

(51) A vehicle structure according to the example embodiment has the resin joined body according to the example embodiment described above. The type of vehicle structure according to the example embodiment is not particularly limited. For example, the vehicle structure may be a side door, a hood, a roof, a back door, a luggage compartment door, a bumper, or a crash box.

(52) Typically, a thermosetting resin molded body has a smoother surface than a thermoplastic resin molded body, so when forming a door as a vehicle structure using the resin joined body according to this example embodiment, for example, the surface side of the door is preferably formed by the thermosetting resin molded body of the resin joined body.

(53) The vehicle structure according to the example embodiment makes it possible to form a resin vehicle structure by combining suitable resin materials for each portion according to the characteristics that are required. Therefore, the vehicle structure according to the example embodiment enables a next-generation vehicle that uses a combination of a plurality of types of resins (multi-materials) to be realized.

(54) Below, the example embodiment will be described in more detail based on an example, but the example embodiment is in no way limited to this example.

(55) (Preparation of a Test Piece)

(56) CFRP (continuous fiber prepreg material) 3K woven material made by Toray Industries, Inc. was used as the thermosetting resin. CFRTP (random material) made by Toray Industries, Inc. was used as the thermoplastic resin. A thermoplastic resin molded body 100 mm long, 25 mm wide, and 3 mm thick was formed using a thermoplastic resin for preparing a thermoplastic resin molded body. Two thermoplastic resin portions each 10 mm long, 5 mm wide, and 3 mm thick were formed using a thermoplastic resin for preparing a thermosetting resin molded body. Corona discharge treatment was then performed on a surface of these thermoplastic resin portions. A thermosetting resin molded body was obtained by forming a precursor before curing of the thermosetting resin molded body using thermosetting resin and these thermoplastic resin portions, and then heating the precursor first in an oven for two hours at 135 C., and then in an autoclave for two hours at 135 C. and 0.4 MPa. The size of the thermosetting resin molded body was 100 mm long, 25 mm wide, and 3 mm thick. The two thermoplastic resin portions were then arranged, 5 mm apart with the length directions thereof being parallel to the length direction of the thermosetting resin molded body, on an end portion of the thermosetting resin molded body. The protrusion amount of the thermoplastic resin portions from the thermosetting resin molded body was set to 1 mm.

(57) (Vibration Welding)

(58) The obtained thermoplastic resin molded body and thermosetting resin molded body were provided for a welding test after being stored for at least 10 days in a room controlled to 252 C. A Branson MICROPPL (Emerson Japan, Ltd.) was used as the vibration welding machine. A resin joined body was manufactured by placing the thermoplastic resin molded body into contact with the thermoplastic resin portions of the thermosetting resin molded body, and performing vibration welding. As the welding conditions, the vibration amplitude was set to 1.8 mm, the pressure was set to 0.75 MPa, and the penetration dimension was set to 1.0 mm.

(59) (Shear Strength Measurement)

(60) An Autograph AG-X100KN by Shimadzu Corporation was used to perform a shearing test. The shear strength was 21.9 MPa, so it was evident that excellent joint strength was exhibited.
