MULTIPART SUBASSEMBLY COMPOSED OF METALLIC PARTS, AND METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION THEREOF

摘要

The invention relates to a subassembly (1) and a method for the production thereof. Said subassembly (1) comprises a first and a second part (2, 3), the first (2, 3) of which is cold-formed. Said parts (2, 3) are provided with parallel planar pieces (20, 21) and contact areas that extend at an angle therefrom in order to place the two parts (2, 3) against each other without leaving a gap therebetween while being joined to each other at the butt joint (16) via a welded seam (17) created by means of beam welding. The planar pieces (20, 21) are disposed so as to be misaligned relative to each other by an offset (19). One of the parts (2, 3) is provided with a contacting projection (6) which embodies the contact area of the first part (2). The parts (2, 3) are positioned relative to each other in such a way that the second part (3) forms the butt joint (16) along with the first part (2) in the section of the first part (2) in which an offset thickness of the basic material is smaller than the offset thickness of the structure in a deformation zone (18) created on the first part (2) by cold forming.
