METHOD FOR WELDING OVERLAPPED PART, METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING LAP WELD MEMBER, LAP WELD MEMBER, AND COMPONENT FOR AUTOMOBILE

摘要

A method of welding an overlapped portion according to the present invention in which a plurality of steel sheet members are joined at an overlapped portion, and at least one of the plurality of steel sheet members contains martensite, includes: forming a spot-welded portion having a nugget in the overlapped potion; and emitting a laser beam to form a melted and solidified portion crossing an end of the nugget and located between the nugget and a position externally spaced apart from an end of the nugget by not less than 3 mm, this melted and solidified portion being formed in the steel sheet member containing the martensite so as to have a depth of not less than 50% of the thickness of the steel sheet member containing the martensite at a position externally spaced apart from the end of the nugget by 1 mm.
