The present invention provides a cap tip detaching apparatus of a welding machine for detaching a cap tip fitted to a leading end portion of a shank of the resistance welding machine. The cap tip detaching apparatus has the following elements: (1) a pawl portion (6) constituted by a fixed pawl (6a) extended in a direction orthogonal to an axial direction of a shank (S) so as to be brought into close contact with a lower end portion of the shank (S), and a movable pawl provided in a leading end of a leverage type lever (5), forming a pair together with the fixed pawl (6a) and brought into close contact with an upper end portion of a cap tip (T) ; (2) a drive portion (3) for moving the pawl portion (6) to a portion between the shank (S) and the cap tip (T); and (3) a rotating mechanism rotating the lever (5) so as to disconnect the cap tip (T) from the shank (S) by pushing down the movable pawl (6b) working with the drive portion (3). |
