A nozzle assembly for a welding torch is disclosed. The nozzle assembly comprises a nozzle, a contact tip, and a gas diffuser assembly. The gas diffuser assembly comprises a gas diffuser, coupled to an insulator. The gas diffuser is also coupled to a gooseneck and the contact tip. The nozzle is coupled to the gas diffuser assembly, such that the contact tip is retained within the nozzle. The nozzle and gas diffuser assembly further include complementary engagement features to couple the nozzle to the gas diffuser assembly. The nozzle also includes a spatter deflector configured to deflect or block spatter from obstructing gas holes of the gas diffuser assembly.

Apparatuses, systems, and/or methods for providing welding systems or portions of welding systems that provide a tip-retention device that is configured to direct gas radially towards a contact tip.

A nozzle stock (3) for a torch neck (10) of a welding device has an internal cavity (7) and at least one gas-outlet opening (8), which is in fluidic connection with the gas outlet (2) of a gas nozzle (1). A nozzle-stock insert (20) in the internal cavity (7) of the nozzle stock (3) has a front end (23) and a rear end (24), wherein the outer wall (22) of the nozzle-stock insert (20) is at a distance from the inner wall (9) of the nozzle stock (3), at least in some regions, to form a flow space (11) that is in fluidic connection with the gas-outlet opening (8) of the nozzle stock (3). A front and/or rear inflow region, which is formed by a front and/or rear gap (25, 26), is provided at the front end (23) and/or at the rear end (24) of the nozzle-stock insert (20).

A welding torch system includes a diffuser assembly that includes a locking mechanism to receive a contact tip. Additionally, the welding torch system includes the contact tip, which includes locking elements configured to interact with the locking mechanism of the diffuser assembly to secure the contact tip within the diffuser assembly. Further, the contact tip is rotated within the diffuser assembly to securely align the locking elements with the locking mechanism.

The disclosure includes a welding cup system comprising a tube having an open top, an open bottom, a sidewall extending between the open top and the open bottom, and an open channel. The open channel may extend through an interior portion of the tube from the open top to the open bottom. The open top may be arranged and configured to slideably couple to at least a portion of a torch assembly. The open channel may be arranged and configured to allow gas to flow from the open top to the open bottom, and allow a welding electrode to extend through the open channel from open top towards the open bottom. The welding cup system may have a side profile that may define an asymmetrical shape.

The present invention relates to a welding device which includes a welding power source provided with a power supply circuit; a wire feeder connected to the welding power supply to supply wire; a torch which pulls the wire supplied from the wire feeder and supplies the wire to a welding part; an IR thermal camera which captures the welding part; a vision module having built-in program which receives and processes a captured image of a IR thermal camera; and a slag removal device which removes slag detected in the welding part in real time in conjunction with the vision module. The welding device has an effect in which slag generated during welding can be removed before the slag is fixed on the molten pool.

A welding torch that comprises: a main body that is formed as a hollow pipe body, and that has a first inclined surface formed inside the pipe body; an electrode bar cap that has a collet chuck on the front side of a joint that is assembled on one side of the pipe body in a screw-coupling manner, that moves the collet chuck by tightening or loosening the joint; a head that has a socket that is arranged on a side facing the pipe body and that sprays supplied gas in all directions, and that is formed of a nozzle that is assembled on an external surface of the socket; and a connector that guides a gas supply into the pipe body.

A tungsten inert gas welding torch body, a TIG welding torch handle, and a TIG welding torch has a gas channel terminating in front of the distal end of a plug-in element in an inlet opening arranged on the shell side of the plug-in element, and a central inlet mouth at the distal end of the plug-in element terminating in front of the distal end of the plug-in element in a return opening on the shell side at the plug-in element. The TIG welding torch handle has a second channel arranged coaxially to the central channel, and a third channel arranged coaxially to the second channel. A connection is between the second channel and the third channel. The first channel has a mouth in the center of the receiving part, and each of the second and third channels has a mouth on the shell side of the receiving part.

A welding torch system includes a diffuser assembly that includes a locking mechanism to receive a contact tip. Additionally, the welding torch system includes the contact tip, which includes locking elements configured to interact with the locking mechanism of the diffuser assembly to secure the contact tip within the diffuser assembly. Further, the contact tip is rotated within the diffuser assembly to securely align the locking elements with the locking mechanism.

Some examples of the present disclosure relate to a cover cap for a welding torch. The cover cap is attached to a housing of the welding torch and rotatable between a closed position, where the cover cap covers an access port of the welding torch, and an open position, where the cover cap does not cover the access port. The welding torch may have welding components within the handle that may be accessed through the access port when the cover cap is in the open position. A cap holder may be used to hold the cover cap in the open position.
