Abstract

See full text

A method of producing a polygonal closed cross-section structural component includes press-forming a metal sheet into a gutter-shaped pre-processed part with a curved form along its longitudinal direction having plural ridge lines corresponding to corner portions of the polygonal closed cross-section in a cross-sectional form developed by cutting the component at a position corresponding to the ridge line located at the innermost side in the radial direction to provide a flange portion extending along the ridge line at the resulting respective ends, and press-forming the pre-processed part to deform inwardly in the cross-sectional direction at a position of one or more of the plural ridge lines to butt the ridge lines located at the innermost side and the flange portions to each other.
