FLEXIBLE PIPE BEND FOR A WELDING TORCH HAVING A POSITIONING ARM FORMED AS MECHANICAL SEPARATION; WELDING TORCH HAVING SUCH A FLEXIBLE PIPE BEND

摘要

The invention relates to a flexible pipe bend (29) for a welding torch, wherein a nozzle pipe (30) for accommodating a contact pipe (31) is arranged at one end and a central connection (32) for fastening the pipe bend (29) to a torch holder is arranged at the other, opposite end, wherein the two ends are connected to each other by means of a flexible connecting element (33). The connecting element (33) is designed in such a way that mechanical separation is provided for stability and for current transmission in that a positioning arm (38) for stably positioning the arc components, in particular a welding wire or an electrode, is arranged, around which a highly flexible power cable (39) is routed. The invention further relates to a correspondingly designed welding torch.
