Embodiment Construction

[0056] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. It should be noted that the following description of the preferred embodiments is exemplary only in nature.

[0057] figure 1 and figure 2 The electrode storage device 1 for spot welding according to the embodiment of the present invention is shown. This electrode accommodating device 1 is arranged on the side of the vehicle body assembly passage in the automobile production line, so that the spot welding electrode 10 can be installed on the handle 11 of the welding torch held by the welding robot (refer to Figure 5 ) form accommodates a plurality of the electrodes 10.

[0058] The electrode housing device 1 includes a substantially square cylindrical housing case 2 extending linearly in the horizontal direction. The housing case 2 has a first side portion 21 and a second side portion 22 , a front portion 23 , and a rear portion 24 . The first side portion...

Abstract

The invention provides a spot welding electrode housing apparatus. A pressing unit (5) presses a plurality of electrodes (10) accommodated in an accommodation passage (R1) in the interior of an accommodation case (2) toward an electrode retrieval port (20). When a lever member (3) swings to one side, the lever member (3) assumes a first position (X1) in which the tip side thereof blocks part of the electrode retrieval port (20), and when the lever member (3) swings to the other side, the lever member (3) assumes a second position (X2) in which the tip side opens the electrode retrieval port (20). A first coil spring (4) is disposed between the base side of the lever member (3) and a first side surface section (21) of the accommodation case (2) and biases the base side of the lever member (3) away from the accommodation case (2).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electrode storage device for spot welding which stores, for example, electrodes for spot welding used in automobile production lines in a state attachable to a shank of a welding torch. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, in automobile production lines, multiple press-formed parts are joined together by spot welding to assemble vehicle frames, usually with a welding torch mounted on the tip of an industrial robot arm. [0003] However, the electrode is attached to the handle of the welding gun by fitting the front end of the handle of the welding gun into the fitting recess of the electrode. Furthermore, since the electrodes are worn out by repeated spot welding, they need to be replaced periodically. Therefore, in order to efficiently attach the electrode to the handle of the welding torch when replacing the electrode, an electrode storage device for spot welding is installed in the automobile production ...
