Abstract
Provided is a high frequency induction heating apparatus capable of quenching a workpiece having an outward flange, over the whole circumference by means of a frequency with which a penetration depth of an electromagnetic wave is larger than a sheet thickness of the workpiece The high frequency induction heating apparatus includes a high frequency induction heating coil used for heating a long hollow steel workpiece having a closed cross section and an outward flange, in 3DQ in which a bending member is manufactured from the workpiece The high frequency induction heating coil includes a magnetic material core facing each other between which both faces of the outward flange are interposed, having a distance from both faces, and an induction heating coil connected to the magnetic material core and arranged surrounding an outer circumference of a general portion where the outward flange is excluded from the workpiece.
