Patent number: 8759712Abstract: A method of forming stiffened plate by welding a plurality of stiffener materials and a steel plate, so that closed cross-sectional structures are secured onto a surface of the steel plate. The stiffener materials are joined to the steel plate as a result of edge portions of the stiffener materials which are in contact with the steel plate by being laser welded at a predetermined welding speed as a result of a laser having a predetermined output being irradiated from a predetermined direction thereon from the external side of the closed cross-sectional structures. Accordingly, it is possible to achieve an improvement in the weld quality when welding stiffener materials onto a steel plate, and to achieve an improvement in fatigue strength.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2011Date of Patent: June 24, 2014Assignee: IHI CorporationInventors: Koutarou Inose, Shiro Saito, Junko Kambayashi, Hiroto Yamaoka, Tomohiro Sugino, Isao Kawaguchi

Patent number: 7921495Abstract: An end face (20) of one (10a) of two adjacent thick steel plates (10a, 10b) intended to construct a corner joint of a bridge column is formed into a beveled end face (22). Laser beam welding is applied to a root portion (24) of the beveled end face, and arc welding is applied to bevels (26, 28) thereof so that grooves defined by the bevels (26, 28) are filled with weld metal (40).Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2006Date of Patent: April 12, 2011Assignee: IHI CorporationInventors: Koutarou Inose, Hiroto Yamaoka, Isao Kawaguchi, Yasumasa Nakanishi
