Embodiment Construction

[0068] Go to attached image, figure 1 A schematic diagram of an embodiment of a welding system 10 is shown that provides power, control and supply for welding operations. The welding system 10 includes a power supply 20 having a control panel 22 through which a welding operator may control welding output voltage, welding current, gas flow, and / or other welding parameters for the welding operation. Control panel 22 may include input or interface devices that a welding operator may use to adjust welding parameters (eg, voltage, current, etc.). The power supply 20 can be connected to a gas source 30, which can be located external to the power supply 20 (e.g. figure 1 shown) or can also be located inside the power supply 20. Gas source 30 may provide shielding gas for welding operations.

[0069] Such as figure 1 As shown, the welding system 10 also includes a wire feeder 40 connected to the power source 20 via at least one interconnection cable 60 . Interconnect cable 60 may...

Abstract

A wire feeder includes an exterior housing and in interior housing that creates an interstitial spaced that is disposed between the exterior and interior housing. This housing structure reduces weight of the wire feeder while maintaining the structural rigidness required of a wire feeder. This housing structure also promotes improved cooling features for the wire feeder and the components disposed within the wire feeder. The exterior housing may be constructed of a materials that reduces the likelihood of being damaged. The wire feeder may be further equipped with a strain relief device for the incoming supply cables, and an interchangeable cable connector. The wire feeder may also be equipped with removable wire guides for the wire feeder mechanism that are toolless. The wire feeder may be equipped with accessory storage and attachment features, as well as a cost reduced repositionable control panel.

Description

[0001] Cross-references to related applications [0002] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 754,853, filed November 2, 2018, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a wire feeder, and more particularly, to a portable wire feeder for feeding welding wire and delivering power to a welding torch. Background technique [0004] Portable welding devices (eg, welding power supplies, wire feeders, etc.) are known and are often embodied in housings. Such a portable welding device may be used in applications where it is not practical or convenient to send workpieces to a shop for repair or fabrication. Examples of applications for such portable welding devices include petroleum and chemical manufacturing, shipboard installation and repair, and the like. Due to their portability, these welding devices have gained widespread use and popularity. Among th...
