<p>Disclosed are a lightweight hollow member, which is highly strong, at e.g., 780 MPa or greater, has complex shapes applicable to automotive components, is highly rigid, and has excellent impact characteristics, and a manufacturing device and manufacturing method, which can form the hollow member by a simple process and have a relatively small and inexpensive molding machine. Disclosed is a manufacturing device (10) that is equipped with a feed unit (11) for feeding a hollow steel material (20) with a closed horizontal cross-sectional shape to the lengthwise direction thereof, a support unit (12), which supports this fed material (20) at a first position (A), a heating unit (13), which heats the material (20) at a second position (B), a horizontal cross-sectional shape change unit (14), which performs work to change the horizontal cross-sectional shape of the material (20) at a third position (C), and a cooling unit (15), which cools the material (20) at a fourth position (D).</p> |
