Abstract
An air-guiding device for influencing weld spatters during a machining of a workpiece may have at least one annular nozzle for generating an airflow directed to a weld point. The nozzle may have having at least one air inlet and at least one air outlet. The air inlet being arranged on an outer peripheral surface of the nozzle and opening out substantially tangentially into an air duct of the nozzle. A welding device having the air-guiding device is also provided.

1-10. (canceled)
An air-guiding apparatus for influencing weld spatter during processing of a workpiece, comprising at least one annular nozzle for generating an air flow directed toward a weld site,
- characterized in that the nozzle has at least one air inlet and at least one air outlet, where the air inlet is disposed on an outer circumferential face of the nozzle and opens essentially tangentially into an air duct of the nozzle, where a diabolo-shaped air flow is generatable by means of the nozzle with at least one air inlet in tangential arrangement.
