Problems solved by technology

However, it is very disadvantageous that, for example, there is no space on the column for the coil supply device, which must be connected with suitable wires.
Such wires placed between the supply unit and the cleaning equipment can transmit electromagnetic fields from strong current pulses which may cause other units or control systems to malfunction

Embodiment Construction

[0067] figure 1 is a perspective view of a cleaning device comprising a housing 1 arranged in a manner similar to a kitchen cabinet and containing all parts arranged for cleaning a welding torch. In this way, a tank 2 is provided in the housing 1 for holding, for example, a cleaning liquid, into which the welding torch can be dipped in order to cool the metal spatter adhering thereto. In addition to the liquid tank 2, a supplementary container 5 can be provided for supplying the tank 2 with liquid. A coil 3 is arranged behind the slot 2 , the coil comprising the opening 4 . The welding torch is inserted into the opening 4 of the coil 3 after immersion in the tank 2 . After power is supplied to the coil 3, the metal spatter on the welding torch is removed in a non-contact manner. The impurities fall into a waste container 6 (not shown) arranged below the coil 3 . After opening a part of the housing 1, the waste container 6 can be easily removed and emptied. A power supply ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for cleaning welding torches ( 11 ) and to a device for cleaning welding torches ( 11 ), comprising a device for applying cleaning or wetting liquid to the tip of the welding torch ( 11 ) and comprising a coil ( 3 ) with an opening ( 4 ) for inserting the welding torch ( 11 ) in order to subject it to an electromagnetic cleaning. The inventive device also comprises an electric power supply device ( 7 ) that is connected to said coil ( 3 ). The aim of the invention is to provide a cleaning method that can be executed in a manner that is as rapid and automatable as possible and to create a corresponding cleaning device. To this end, the device for applying cleaning liquid, which consists of, for example, a reservoir ( 2 ) or nozzles ( 32 ), and the coil ( 3 ) are placed inside a common housing ( 1 ) together with a refuse reservoir ( 6 ), which is located underneath the coil ( 3 ) while serving to hold the electromagnetically removed foreign substances. Preferably, the device for applying cleaning liquid is placed inside or underneath the opening ( 4 ) of the coil ( 3 ) whereby enabling the welding torch ( 11 ) to be located in essentially the same position during cleaning.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for cleaning a welding torch, wherein a cleaning or wetting fluid is applied to the tip of the welding torch and the tip of the welding torch is subsequently exposed to an electromagnetic field for non-contact removal of impurities . [0002] Furthermore, the invention relates to a device for cleaning a welding torch, comprising means for applying a cleaning liquid to the nozzle of the welding torch and a coil having an opening for insertion of the welding torch for electromagnetic cleaning of the welding torch , further comprising a power supply device connected to the coil. Background technique [0003] During the welding process, the welding torch is often contaminated by molten metal slag (spatter). Metallic slag is also deposited in the gas nozzle of the torch, where it solidifies. The shielding gas flowing through the gas nozzle is thus disturbed by deposited metal slag, so that even atmospheric air can reach ...
