Abstract

A blank material is formed from a steel sheet, a first quenching of the blank material is performed, and a second quenching of the blank material is performed after the first quenching. When the first quenching is performed, the blank material is heated to a first temperature of not lower than (Ac3 point—50)° C. nor higher than 1200° C. at an average heating rate of 2° C./sec or more, and the blank material is cooled from the first temperature to a second temperature of 250° C. or lower. When the second quenching is performed, the blank material is heated from the second temperature to a third temperature of not lower than (Ac3 point—50)° C. nor higher than 1200° C. at an average heating rate of 2° C./sec or more, and the blank material is cooled from the third temperature to a fourth temperature of 250° C. or lower. Forming of the blank material is performed in the first quenching or the second quenching or both of the above.

Conditions in examples are condition examples employed for confirming the applicability and effects of the present invention and the present invention is not limited to these examples. The present invention can employ various conditions as long as the object of the present invention is achieved without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

(2) (First Experiment)

(3) Slabs having chemical compositions presented in Table 1 were subjected to hot-rolling. In the hot rolling, a slab heating temperature was set to 1250° C., a finishing temperature was set to 930° C., and a coiling temperature was set to 650° C. In cooling from the finishing temperature (930° C.) to the coiling temperature (650° C.), an average cooling rate was set to 20° C./sec. Thus, hot-rolled steel sheets each having a thickness of 1.6 mm or 3.2 mm were obtained. Next, the hot-rolled steel sheets were subjected to descaling treatment. The balance of each of the chemical compositions presented in Table 1 is Fe and impurities.

(5) Thereafter, from the hot-rolled steel sheets each having a thickness of 3.2 mm, as follows, cold-rolled steel sheets, aluminum-plated steel sheets, hot-dip galvanized steel sheets, and alloyed hot-dip galvanized steel sheets were produced. First, the hot-rolled steel sheets each having a thickness of 3.2 mm were subjected to the hot-rolled sheet annealing at 600° C. for two hours and subjected to the cold rolling at a reduction ratio of 50% to obtain the cold-rolled steel sheets each having a thickness of 1.6 mm. Next, the partial cold-rolled steel sheets were subjected to the annealing in continuous hot-dip annealing equipment or continuous aluminizing line. In this annealing, after holding the cold-rolled steel sheets at 800° C. for 120 seconds, holding was performed at 400° C. for 200 seconds. After the annealing, the cold-rolled steel sheets were subjected to aluminum coating layer, hot-dip galvanizing, or alloying hot-dip galvanizing at a temperature of 500° C. or lower. Thus, as steel sheets for hot stamping, the hot-rolled steel sheets, the cold-rolled steel sheets, the aluminum-plated steel sheets, the hot-dip galvanized steel sheets, and the alloyed hot-dip galvanized steel sheets were prepared.

(6) Thereafter, the steel sheets for hot stamping were subjected to blanking to be formed into blank materials, and a first quenching (first heat treatment) and a second quenching (second heat treatment) of the blank materials were performed. Table 2 and Table 3 present conditions of the first heat treatment and conditions of the second heat treatment. Note that in the first heat treatment, atmosphere heating, air cooling from a holding temperature to 700° C., and cooling at an average cooling rate of 50° C./sec in a flat sheet-shaped die from 700° C. to a cooling stop temperature were performed. In the second heat treatment, atmosphere heating was performed when a heating rate was 50° C./sec or less, and electric heating was performed when it was more than 50° C./sec. Air cooling from a holding temperature to 700° C., and cooling at an average cooling rate of 100° C./s while performing press forming in a die from 700° C. to a cooling stop temperature were performed. Thus, various hot stamped parts were manufactured. Underlines in Table 2 and Table 3 indicate that numerical values thereon deviate from ranges of the present invention.

(9) Microstructures before the second heat treatment after the first heat treatment and microstructures after the second heat treatment were observed. Table 4 and Table 5 present these results. An observation method of the microstructures is as described above. Further, tensile test pieces in conformity to JIS Z 2201 were taken from the hot stamped parts, and maximum tensile strength was measured by a tensile test in conformity to JIS Z 2241. The tensile test was performed five times for each test No., and an average value of five maximum tensile strengths was set as tensile strength of the test No. Table 4 and Table 5 also present this result. The reason why the average value is set as the tensile strength is that in a case where a low-stress fracture occurs, even though manufacturing conditions are the same, large variation in rupture stress is likely to occur. Regarding certain true strain ε.sub.a and true stress δ.sub.a, the low-stress fracture was judged as occurring regarding a sample in which a rupture occurred before the following formula 2 was satisfied, and the low-stress fracture was judged as not occurring regarding a sample in which a rupture occurred after the following formula 2 was satisfied. In the formula 2, Δε.sub.a was set to 0.0002, and Δδ.sub.a was set as a difference between “a true stress δ.sub.a+1 when a true strain is “ε.sub.a+0.0002”” and “a true stress δ.sub.a when a true strain is “ε.sub.a”” (Δδ.sub.a=δ.sub.a+1−δ.sub.a),
Δδ.sub.a/Δε.sub.a=δ.sub.a  (formula 2).
