Device for cleaning the gas nozzle of a welding torch

A device for cleaning the gas nozzle of a welding torch in which weld splatters have accumulated on the nozzle, comprising a housing (20) having a top and a side and there being an access opening (21) for a gas nozzle on said top and side, a pair of spaced stops (31,32) within said housing and against which a gas nozzle inserted through said access opening is positioned, a piston (24) movable against said positioned nozzle to secure said gas nozzle in position against said stops, rotatable cutting blades (25) axially movable into and out of said positioned gas nozzle to scrape weld splatters therefrom, and a pair of spraying nozzles (2) on both sides of said positioned gas nozzle below said stops and inclined towards said gas nozzle to spray an anti-adhesive agent thereon when said gas nozzle is secured in its said position so that said gas nozzle remains in the same position for both scraping of weld splatter and spraying of anti-adhesive agent.
