 1, the tensile strength 1180MPa class, steel 1a having a thickness of 1.6 mm, superimposing 1b, performs fillet weld between the surface of the end portion and the steel plate 1b of the steel sheet 1a, the obtained test piece an imaging in the thickness direction cross section of the state after performing a tensile test. Incidentally, it may a steel plate 1a side upper, the steel plate 1b side of the lower side.
[0012]
 Test piece shown in FIG. 1, the steel sheet not destroyed (base material) 1a, 1b, when a load of 28KN, weld bead (fillet welds) are cracks from 2 root portion pulling direction and substantially perpendicular making progress in the direction, being broken at the weld metal.
[0013]
 Figure 2 shows the Vickers hardness distribution. Figure 2 is the steel sheet weld bead 2 is formed on the surface shown in FIG. 1 (base material) 1b 0.2 mm depth from the surface in the thickness direction (shown by the dotted line position), steel (base material) parallel to the surface direction of 1b is obtained by measuring the Vickers hardness. In FIG. 2, A region is Vickers hardness of the base metal and weld heat affected zone (HAZ portion), B region is Vickers hardness of the weld metal. Thus, Vickers hardness of the weld metal has become equal to the Vickers hardness of the base material.
[0014]
 Thus, the test piece fabricated using tensile strength of at least upper steel over steel sheet (base material) 780 MPa, not have high ductility of the upper steel sheet, also Vickers hardness of Vickers hardness and the base metal of the weld metal since the Saga equal, not fractured in the base metal, stress and progress crack from the root portion to focus breaks in the weld metal.
[0015]

This Applying the present invention, after the fillet welding overlapping the lower steel plate and the upper steel plate is in the form of forming a reinforcing bead thereon.
[0097]
 However, in such a multi-platter, lap fillet welding of the upper steel plate and the lower steel sheet, it does not take place the end of the reinforcing portion so as to cover the weld metal, different from the embodiment of the present invention. Further, in this embodiment, when formed on the fillet weld overlapping reinforcing beads, because martensite of lap fillet weld is partially tempered been softened region occurs, lap fillet welds weld metal tends to break the. That is, the effect of the present invention can not be obtained.
[0098]
 As another embodiment of the reinforcing portion, the other embodiments described above, the reinforcing portion may be provided by processing the steel sheet. For example, press-molded so that the ends of the steel sheet surface becomes convex, the end became convex can also be used as a reinforcing portion.
[0099]
 It will now be described steel sheet used in the welding process and joint of the present invention of the present invention.
 In the welding method and joint of the present invention of the present invention, the tensile strength in the upper steel plate used 780MPa or more steel (high-strength steel sheet). In welded joint fillet welding using high strength steel plate in the upper steel plate when subjected to excessive tensile load, without breaking with the base material, it may be broken at the weld metal, the improvement of tensile strength of a welded joint This is because you need. Lower steel plate, or the like chemical composition is not limited in particular, it is possible to use a high strength steel sheet similar to the upper steel plate.
[0100]
 The thickness of the upper steel plate and lower steel plates, not limited in particular, can be 0.5 ~ 3.0 mm. Further, the thickness of the whole of the upper steel plate and lower steel plates, not limited in particular, can be 1.0 ~ 6.0 mm. The upper sheet and lower steel sheet may be a steel sheet to form a surface treatment coating such as plating on both surfaces or one surface. If blowhole defects plating due occurs, it may be welded with a gap between the plates.
[0101]
 Steel plate, has a plate-shaped portion on at least a portion, as long as it has a portion where the plate-like portion is stacked superposed each other or even entirely without a plate. Further, the steel sheet is not limited to those composed of separate steel plate, or a superposition of those molding a single steel plate into a predetermined shape of the tubular, and the like.
[0102]
 Next, the flow of the welding method of the present invention.
[0103]
 First, in the welding method of the present invention, to prepare the upper sheet and the lower steel plate as described above. For example, to prepare two pieces of the non-plated steel plate of a tensile strength 1180MPa having a thickness of 1.6 mm. Next, prepare the reinforcement, the upper steel plate reinforcement shapes and sizes in accordance with the fillet weld is formed by fillet welding between the lower steel plate. For example, the shape when viewed in plan from the cross-sectional shape and an upper plate thickness direction, a rectangular shape, the width W is 20 mm, thickness ta is prepared 1.6mm reinforcements.
[0104]
 If the reinforcing material to form a reinforcing portion, which is fillet welded, superposed reinforcement to the upper steel plate and fillet weld between the one end portion of the surface of the upper steel reinforcement. For example, fillet weld height td fillet welds so that 1.6mm is the same height as the reinforcing material. Then, the other end portion of the reinforcing member, and the end portion of the upper steel plate is fillet welded to the between the surface of the lower steel sheet becomes a relationship between the reinforcing material and the fillet weld above. For example, in 3.2mm height tc fillet welds plus the thickness ta of the reinforcing material and the thickness tb of the upper steel plate, the length Lc of the fillet weld, the length La and the corner of the reinforcement to match the total length Lb of the weld portion, the fillet weld.
[0105]
 Incidentally, the other end portion of the reinforcing member, and the end portion of the upper steel sheet, and fillet welding as between the surface of the lower steel sheet becomes a relationship between the reinforcing material and the fillet weld above, then, between the surface and the one end portion of the reinforcement of the upper steel sheet may be fillet welded.
[0106]
 If the reinforcing material to form a reinforcing portion joined by overlapping face, superposed reinforcement to the upper steel plate, bonding the overlapping surfaces of the upper steel sheet reinforcement. Bonding is not particularly limited, may be performed by resistance welding such as spot welding or seam welding, even if other resistance welding for example by laser welding, is filled to the surface overlapped adhesive bond it may be carried out. Conditions for the bonding process may according to the conventional method, is not particularly limited.
[0107]
 For example, when joining at the spot welding, superposed reinforcement to the upper steel plate, so as to sandwich the two metal plates from both sides, the Domurajiasu type made of copper alloy electrodes tip diameter 6 ~ 8 mm, while pressed under a pressure of 1.5 ~ 6.0kN, 5 ~ 50 cycles (power supply frequency 50 Hz), at 4 ~ 15 kA, and energized to form a molten metal, cooling and solidifying, the weld having a diameter of about 5mm to form. In this case, the width and length of the weld becomes equivalent.
[0108]
 Then, between the end portion and the surface of the lower steel reinforcements, including an end portion of the upper steel plate is fillet welded to the relationship between the reinforcing material and the fillet weld above. For example, in 3.2mm height tc fillet welds plus the thickness ta of the reinforcing material and the thickness tb of the upper steel plate, the length Lc of the fillet weld, the length La and the corner of the reinforcement to match the total length Lb of the weld portion, the fillet weld.
[0109]
 When forming the reinforcing portion due to the reinforcing bead, reinforcing bead has to be formed prior to the formation of the fillet weld. Thus, as shown in FIG. 11 (b), one of the toe portion 250 of the fillet weld 220 is so located on the surface of the reinforcing beads 230.
[0110]
 Next, the surface of the reinforcing bead, and the end portion of the upper steel plate is fillet welded to the between the surface of the lower steel sheet becomes a relationship between the reinforcing bead and the fillet weld above. For example, in 3.2mm height tc fillet welds plus the thickness ta of the reinforcing bead and the thickness tb of the upper steel plate, the length Lc of the fillet weld, the length La and the corner of the reinforcing bead to match the total length Lb of the weld portion, the fillet weld.
[0111]
 Conditions of an arc welding in fillet welding may according to a conventional method, not particularly limited. For example, as the shielding gas, 100% CO 2 other gas, Ar gas and 3 ~ 20% CO 2 , etc. can be used a mixed gas of the gas, the welding current and voltage, the value undercut come out settings can be.
[0112]
 Welding wire to be used is not particularly limited, if it is possible to use high-strength steel sheet for wire, employing a material having a composition Vickers hardness HV of the weld metal is less than 500, delayed fracture suppression can, preferable.
[0113]
 Stress to improve the tensile strength of lap fillet weld joint of the present invention, the distance from the root portion of the fillet weld to the surface of the fillet weld, i.e. by throat thickness becomes longer, which concentrates on the root portion There is thought to be due to the dispersion.
[0114]
 Throat thickness D T , as shown in FIG. 15 (a), (b) , defined as the shortest distance from the root portion to the fillet weld surface. (A), when the welding bead of fillet weld is formed convexly, (b) shows an example in which the weld bead is formed into a concave shape.
[0115]
 As shown in FIG. 15 (c), if there is a gap upper and lower plates is the shortest distance from the root portion of the upper plate side to fillet welding surface, to fillet weld surface from the root portion of the lower plate side the shortest distance of the shorter and throat thickness.
[0116]
 According to the studies of the present inventors, the throat thickness of the fillet weld D T (mm), the average hardness of the fillet weld H F (HV), the thickness of the upper steel plate D 1 (mm) , hardness smaller hardness of the base material of the hardness and the upper steel HAZ softening of the fillet weld portion of the upper steel sheet H S when the (HV), (D T × H F ) / (D 1 × H S ) of 1.20 or more, and preferably a 1.50, it was found that the more the tensile strength is improved. Hardness is, here, is a Vickers hardness.
[0117]
 Further, the melting width of the lower steel sheet L b when a (mm), (L b × H F ) / (D 1 × H S satisfies the) ≧ 1.70, preferably by improving the tensile strength.
[0118]
 The average hardness of the fillet weld, a value obtained by averaging the Vickers hardness of the weld metal of the area shown in FIG. 2 in B. If the weld metal internal, measurement position and the number of measurements may be arbitrarily determined.
[0119]
 In order to improve the tensile strength of the welded joint more effectively, so as to satisfy the above relationship may be adjusted as appropriate welding conditions.
