A spot welding electrode removal apparatus that is compact and durable is provided. Specifically, the apparatus includes a J-shaped operating lever 8, and in a position adjacent to the end of the operating lever 8 and facing the contact member 7, a pressing member 9 is provided. The operating lever 8 is pivotably supported at a portion of the operating lever 8 closer to the end of the operating lever 8 than the pressing member 9 is by a portion of the rotating case 4 adjacent to the side of the contact member 7. The electrode 10 is placed between the contact member 7 and the pressing member 9, and a pivotal operation of the operating lever 8 toward the electrode 10 allows the pressing member 9 and the contact member 7 to sandwich the electrode 10, and a further pivotal operation of the operating lever 8 toward the electrode 10 allows the electrode 10 to rotate together with the rotating case 4, thereby removing the electrode 10 from a shank end. |
