[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of arc welding robots, and in particular relates to an arc welding robot which is convenient for replacing a welding gun head. Background Art

[0002] Arc welding robots are industrial robots used for automated arc welding. Their components and operating principles are essentially the same as spot welding robots. Arc welding robots are primarily used in the welding production of various automotive parts. In this field, international arc welding robot manufacturers primarily supply unit products to complete equipment suppliers.

[0003] The existing arc welding robot has a welding gun installed on the moving end of the manipulator for welding work. The welding gun head is often connected and fixed by a flange and bolts. When the welding gun head is damaged, it is disassembled and replaced. During long-term use, the bolts sometimes rust. The arc welding robot in the prior art needs to use two wrenches to turn in opposite directions to replace the welding gun head. The disassembly work is often inconvenient, which reduces the maintenance efficiency, and the rusted bolts make maintenance more difficult.

[0004] Chinese patent application number 202323452163.7 provides an arc welding robot for a roller support welding robot workstation. The patent includes a robot body and a welding gun head mounted on the robot body. One side of the welding gun head is connected to and fixed with a gas pipe. A gun barrel is movably mounted on the gas pipe. A first annular plate is fixedly mounted on the gas pipe. The side wall of the first annular plate is provided with an annular groove with an opening on one side. The gas pipe and the gun barrel are both located within the annular groove. One end of the gun barrel is in movable contact with the inner wall of the annular groove away from the opening. The top and bottom sides of the gun barrel are both provided with inclined surfaces. The top and bottom inner walls of the annular groove are provided with rectangular holes. The patent facilitates the rapid and labor-saving replacement of the gun barrel by facilitating the rapid removal of the gun barrel from the gas pipe. This technical solution mainly realizes the disassembly and replacement of the gun barrel and the gas pipe. In addition, the patent is used directly exposed to air, which easily causes dust contamination of the welding head, affecting the subsequent welding effect. Therefore, it needs to be improved.
