Torch for inert-gas-shielded arc welding, in particular TIG welding

摘要

The invention relates to a torch for inert-gas-shielded arc welding, in particular TIG welding, with a torch head and a current/gas connection, between which is arranged a flexible connecting line with at least one current-conducting wire, the connecting line being secured to the torch head in the region of gas bores of the current/gas connection and torch head, and the current-conducting wire being electrically connected to the torch head as well as to the current/gas connection. In order to prevent, as far as possible, damage when bending the connecting line and so that the latter can easily be bent even in the case of torches of relatively high power, the connecting line has a corrugated hose which surrounds the gas bore and is secured externally to the torch head, the current-conducting wire or wires being passed through the corrugated pipe and being secured with lugs on the one hand to the torch head in the region of the gas bore, and on the other hand to the current/gas connection.
