Patent number: 11491525Abstract: To suppress occurrence of stress corrosion cracking in a weld due to tensile residual stress generated in a web or a middle rib in case of bend forming of an aluminum alloy extrusion having the weld on the web or/and the middle rib. In bend forming of the aluminum alloy extrusion, a peak position of tensile residual stress generated in the middle rib exists in a region other than the vicinity of the weld. Since the peak position is away from the weld by a distance, tensile residual stress in the weld is reduced, making it possible to suppress occurrence of stress corrosion cracking.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2020Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Assignee: Kobe Steel, Ltd.Inventors: Koki Sugino, Masatoshi Yoshida
