Abstract

A manufacturing method of a resin component includes: providing a first resin member containing a polymer and a second resin member containing a polymer; and joining a first joining portion of the first resin member and a second joining portion of the second resin member to each other. The joining of the first resin member and the second resin member to each other includes irradiating the first joining portion of the first resin member with a laser light having a peak wavelength in a range from 350 nm to 420 nm is emitted in a presence of oxygen so as to cause multiphoton excitation of the first joining portion of the first resin member.

Claims (31)

1 . A manufacturing method of a resin component, comprising:

providing a first resin member containing a first fluorine-based polymer and a second resin member containing a second fluorine-based polymer; and

joining the first resin member and the second resin member to each other at a first joining portion of the first resin member and a second joining portion of the second resin member by irradiating the first joining portion of the first resin member with a laser light having a peak wavelength in a range from 350 nm to 420 nm in a presence of oxygen so as to cause multiphoton excitation of the first joining portion of the first resin member.

2 . The manufacturing method of a resin component according to claim 1 , wherein

the joining of the first resin member and the second resin member to each other includes irradiating the second joining portion of the second resin member with the laser light so as to cause multiphoton excitation of the second joining portion of the second resin member.

3 . The manufacturing method of a resin component according to claim 1 , wherein

the joining of the first resin member and the second resin member to each other includes

irradiating the first joining portion of the first resin member with the laser light in a state in which the first joining portion of the first resin member is spaced apart from and the second joining portion of the second resin member, and

subsequently, bringing the first joining portion of the first resin member and the second joining portion of the second resin member into contact with each other.

4 . The manufacturing method of a resin component according to claim 3 , wherein

a beam diameter of the laser light on a surface of the first joining portion of the first resin member is in a range from 200 μm to 500 μm.

5 . The manufacturing method of a resin component according to claim 1 , wherein

the joining of the first resin member and the second resin member to each other includes

bringing the first joining portion and the second joining portion into contact with each other, and

subsequently, irradiating an interface between the first joining portion of the first resin member and the second joining portion of the second resin member with the laser light.

6 . The manufacturing method of a resin component according to claim 5 , wherein

a beam diameter of the laser light on the interface between the first joining portion of the first resin member and the second joining portion of the second resin member is in a range from 200 μm to 500 μm.

7 . The manufacturing method of a resin component according to claim 1 , wherein
