Welding gun

Abstract

A welding gun includes a fixed electrode fixed to an arm, a movable electrode held by a holding member separated from the arm, a pressure driver including a rod portion that is fixed to the holding member, and linearly advances and retracts. The pressure driver applies pressure to a welding target sandwiched between the movable electrode and the fixed electrode by advancing the holding member to the arm with the rod portion, and a guide mechanism that is disposed to extend parallel to an axis of the rod portion, and guides the holding member. The rod portion is fixed to the holding member to be offset to an extended line of an axis of the fixed electrode, and the guide mechanism includes only one guide rod fixed to any of movable portions including the movable electrode, the holding member, and the rod portion.
