COMPOSITE-MATERIAL JOINING DEVICE, METHOD FOR PRODUCING JOINED BODY, AND JOINED BODY

摘要

In order to address the problem of stably joining two or more composite materials including a carbon fiber and a thermoplastic resin at a target joining position, the present invention joins two or more composite materials (11a, 11b) to one another by: contacting the joining surfaces of the two or more composite materials (11a, 11b) which include a carbon fiber and a thermoplastic resin; and subjecting the target joining position to the conduction of a current for joining the two or more composite materials (11a, 11b) to one another with Joule heat, while a vibration generation device (17) imparts vibrations to the two or more composite materials (11a, 11b) to which pressure is being applied by a pressurizing device (13).
