Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of welding equipment, in particular to a single-head turntable spot welding machine. Background Art

[0002] Spot welding refers to a welding method that uses a cylindrical electrode to form a weld between the contact surfaces of two overlapping workpieces. During spot welding, pressure is first applied to make the workpieces in close contact, and then the current is turned on. The contact between the workpieces melts under the action of resistance heat, and a weld is formed after cooling. Spot welding is mainly used for welding of thin plate components and stampings with a thickness of less than 4mm, and is particularly suitable for welding automobile bodies, carriages, and aircraft fuselages. The side net of the dishwasher basket is welded by a spot welder. The existing spot welder's lower electrode is an integrated structure with the welding machine. During the welding process, if any position of the lower electrode is worn, the entire electrode must be removed and processed to a relatively horizontal plane, and then reinstalled on the welding machine. In addition, the entire lower electrode needs to be replaced when changing the model, and the welding position needs to be re-aligned after the model change, which makes debugging difficult.
