Abstract

In a method for estimating flange displacement amount, effective three-dimensional coordinate data at a lower first position on a surface continuous with a lower flange surface of a first supported portion and at an upper first position coincident with the lower first position in the horizontal direction on a surface continuous with an upper flange surface are determined. The effective three-dimensional coordinate data at the respective positions are changed such that the effective three-dimensional coordinate data at the lower first position and the effective three-dimensional coordinate data at the upper first position are coincident with each other. In accordance with a difference between a position in a vertical direction indicated by the effective three-dimensional coordinate data at an upper target position on the upper flange surface after a coordinate change and a position in the vertical direction indicated by the effective three-dimensional coordinate data at a lower target position on the lower flange surface after a coordinate change, displacement amounts of the upper target position and the lower target position in the vertical direction when a state changes from an open state to a fastened state are obtained.

Abstract

An overlay welding method includes irradiating a surface of a metal member with a laser beam while supplying a weld metal powder, and performing overlay welding on the surface of the metal member, and repeatedly performing a weld bead formation step of melting and solidifying the weld metal powder with the laser beam to form a plurality of weld beads on the surface of the metal member. Each of the plurality of weld beads has one portion in a width direction overlapping each other. In the overlay welding method, in a case of forming an adjacent weld bead, which is a weld bead adjacent to a previously formed weld bead, an energy density of the laser beam is adjusted to be higher at a portion of the adjacent weld bead overlapping the previously formed weld bead than at a portion not overlapping the previously formed weld bead.
