SHEET METAL CONNECTING MEMBER WHICH IS INTENDED TO BE WELDED TO AN ELEMENT COMPRISING A COUPLING SURFACE, PRODUCTION METHOD THEREOF, CORRESPONDING DRAWING DIE AND VEHICLE

摘要

The invention relates to a sheet metal connecting member comprising an open section which is at least close to at least one of the ends thereof. The inventive member is intended to be welded to at least one element (2) comprising at least one portion having a peripheral shape that is complementary to a coupling zone provided at the aforementioned end of the connecting member. The invention is characterised in that the coupling zone comprises at least one coupling surface (33) which extends essentially transversely in relation to the open section and which has a shape that is designed to match the above-mentioned portion of the element (2).
