[0020] The welding gun body 220 is mounted with a motor 4 202 , and a gear 203 is mounted at the lower end of the motor 4 202 ; the gear 203 is meshed with the gear 3 204 , and driven by the motor 4 202 , the welding gun rod 201 is driven to perform reciprocating or continuous rotational motion.

[0023] In the embodiment, the workpiece to be welded is located at the welding and installation site of the cylinder base in the wind power industry, and its main structure is flat plate butt welding, thickness: 50mm-100mm, length: 2.4-3.6m, and material is Q355B. Due to the heavy size and weight of the component, poor assembly accuracy, and large groove variation range, it cannot be welded using the narrow gap welding device of the existing technology.

[0024] The narrow gap welding gun 2 of the utility model is used to weld the above-mentioned workpiece to be welded. The track 4 is directly installed on the workpiece to be welded along the direction of the weld, and the moving device 1, the narrow gap welding gun 2 and the laser sensor device 3 are installed.
