A radioactive element made of hafnium or zirconium is located at the proximal end of the electrode 1. An electrode step 9 is circumferentially arranged in the middle of the electrode 1.

[0030] The diverter 2 is a barrel-shaped part made of high-temperature resistant insulating material. A diverter step 6 is provided at the distal end of the inner hole of the diverter 2. The diverter step 6 cooperates with the electrode step 9 to limit the axial upward movement of the electrode 1. The diverter step 6 can also cooperate with and limit the position of the plasma gun head. A diverter slot 8 is provided at the proximal end of the inner hole of the diverter 2. The main body of the diverter 2 is provided with a plurality of radial eccentric holes 7 of the diverter connecting the inner hole of the diverter and the outer circle of the diverter. The plurality of radial eccentric holes 7 are evenly distributed in the middle area between the diverter step 6 and the diverter slot 8.

[0031] The inner nozzle 3 is a hollow, shaft-like component made of a conductive material. An inner nozzle step 10 is provided on the outer circumference of the distal end of the inner nozzle 3. This inner nozzle step 10 is matingly connected and fixed to the diverter slot 8, allowing the electrode 1 to move only to a limited extent axially between the diverter 2 and the inner nozzle 3. An inner nozzle slot 11 is provided along the circumference of the central portion of the inner nozzle 3.

[0032] The outer nozzle 5 is a barrel-shaped component, with a conductive component inside and an insulating component outside. An inner step 12 is provided near the inner hole of the conductive component inside the outer nozzle 5. This step 12 fits snugly within the inner nozzle retaining groove 11, preventing the inner nozzle 3 and outer nozzle 5 from separating. An outer step 13 is provided near the outer circumference of the insulating component outside the outer nozzle 5.

[0033] A protective cap retaining groove 14 is provided at the distal end of the inner hole of the protective cap 4 , and the protective cap retaining groove 14 is engaged with the outer step 13 of the outer nozzle.

[0034] Sequentially, the diverter slot on the diverter and the inner nozzle step on the inner nozzle are press-fitted together, while the electrode is positioned within the inner holes of the diverter and inner nozzle to form component 1. The slot on the inner nozzle of this component is then press-fitted together with the step on the outer nozzle to form component 2. The outer step of the outer nozzle of component 2 is then press-fitted together with the slot within the inner hole of the protective cap, ultimately forming the consumable part of the five-in-one plasma cutting gun of this utility model.

[0035] The flow divider, the inner nozzle, the outer nozzle and the protective cap are inseparable from each other, and the electrode can only make limited axial movement in the flow divider and the inner hole of the nozzle.

[0036] The electrode in the consumable part of the combined plasma cutting gun of the utility model is not limited to the connection mode between the electrode and the gun head, and can be a taper fit, a drum spring fit or a crown spring fit.

[0037] The nozzle in the consumable part of the combined plasma cutting gun of the utility model does not limit the cutting mode, and can be cutting, fine cutting, gouging or flush cutting.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] The protective cap in the consumable part of the combined plasma cutting gun of the present invention retains the possibility of not existing, that is, the consumable part of the four-in-one plasma cutting gun can be without the protective cap.

[0040] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention.
