The invention discloses a device for welding stainless steel by resistance heat as well as stirring and friction, comprising an electric power source, a transformer and a stirring head, wherein, two output terminals of the electric power source are connected with the input terminal of the transformer by an electric cable, one output terminal of the transformer is connected with a cushion plate by the electric cable, the cushion plate is used for placing work pieces, the other output terminal of the transformer is connected with an electric brush by the electric cable, the electric brush is contacted with a copper ring arranged in a groove at the upper end of the stirring head. When the device of the invention is adopted for welding, the transformer is adjusted to form low voltage heavy current; driven by an electric motor, a mixing needle is screwed in the space between two work pieces, a low voltage heavy current circuit is conducted and generates relatively high resistance heat on the work pieces, materials at the welding lines are plasticized under high temperature effect of the resistance heat and friction heat, and welding lines form at the rear part of the mixing needle. Stirring friction welding of stainless steel can be realized, abrasion of the stirring head can be reduced, weld length of the stirring head can be increased, service life of the stirring head can be prolonged; in addition, the device of the invention has simple structure and relatively low cost, and is easy to manufacture.
