Abstract

A transportation vehicle part that includes: a patch member constructed of a plate-like metal patch panel, and a vibration attenuating resin layer provided along a surface of the patch panel; and a metal base plate closely adhered with the vibration attenuating resin layer of the patch member and affixed with the patch member; according to this configuration, the transportation vehicle part which has a superior vibration characteristic without greatly increasing the thickness and the weight of the transportation vehicle part is provided.

Claims (27)

1. A transportation vehicle part comprising:

a patch member constructed of

a plate-like metal patch panel, and

a vibration attenuating resin layer provided along a surface of the patch panel; and

a metal base plate closely adhered with the vibration attenuating resin layer of the patch member and affixed with the patch member,

wherein the patch panel and the base plate include a ridged portion, and the patch panel and the base plate are welded together at at least one part of a bent portion of the ridged portion, and

wherein a reinforcing member is provided on the surface of the base plate opposite to the surface on which the patch member is provided and the reinforcing member is provided at a position that faces the patch member.

2. A panel member comprising:

a patch member constructed of

a plate-like metal patch panel, and

a vibration attenuating resin layer provided along a surface of the patch panel; and

a metal base plate closely adhered with the vibration attenuating resin layer of the patch member and affixed with the patch member,

wherein the patch panel and the base plate include a ridged portion, and the patch panel and the base plate are welded together at least one part of a bent portion of the ridged portion.

3. The panel member according to claim 2 ,

wherein the transportation vehicle part is provided with a rigidity reinforced portion which has an uneven shape.

4. The panel member according to claim 2 ,

wherein the vibration attenuating resin layer is an electrically conductive.

5. The panel member part according to claim 2 ,

wherein the patch panel has a thickness of not less than 0.3 mm and not greater than a thickness of the base plate.

6. The panel member according to claim 2 ,

wherein the vibration attenuating resin layer has a thickness of not less than 10 μm and not greater than 1000 μm.

7. The panel member according to claim 2 ,

wherein the vibration attenuating resin layer is constructed of multiple layers which have different temperature characteristics with each other.

8. The panel member according to claim 7 ,

wherein a panel is inserted between the multiple layers.

9. The panel member according to claim 2 ,

wherein an uneven surface processing is performed on a surface of the patch panel or a surface of the base plate, which contacts the vibration attenuating resin layer.
