The invention relates to a connector for connecting welding torch, more particularly, it relates to the socket-like connecting member to be mounted on a welding apparatus. The essential character of the connector (10) is that the connector body and the house is made of insulating material, preferably plastic, designed as a unit (12) in one piece connected by a rear wall (14), further, it has an insert (50, 150, 250) made of electrically conductive material carrying the threaded surface (55, 155, 255) made of electrically conductive material and the contact surface, preferably ring-shaped contact surface (57, 157, 257), which insert (50, 150, 250) can be fitted in a nest (30) formed by the side surface (21) of the connector body part (20) of this unit (12) and the surface (41) of the house part (40) of this unit (12) opposite to this side surface (21), the insert (50, 150, 250) has a part at its side surface suitable for connecting the current to it, and there is an opening (33) on the sidewall of the house part (40) leaving uncovered the side surface of the insert (50, 150, 250) suitable for connecting the current to it, and the insert (50, 150, 250) is secured rotationally in the nest (30) by form-fitting and/or by the catching of a device connected to the side of the insert (50, 150, 250) suitable for connecting the current to it in the edge of the opening (33).
A connector for connecting a welding torch to a welding apparatus, the connector comprising a connector body, a nest for a wire-guide, a nest for a gas supply conduit disposed on a frontal area of the connector body, one or more electric contacts situated flush with the front area and lead-out at a rear surface of the connector body, a wire-guide intermediate piece connected to the nest for the wire-guide from the back and a lead-in leading into the nest for the gas supply conduit, a threaded surface made of electrically conductive material, a contact surface disposed beside the threaded surface, and a house made of insulating material surrounding the connector body from the side and shaped to be suitable for mounting the connector, characterized in that the connector body and the house are made of insulating material designed as a unit in one piece connected by a rear wall, wherein the connector body has an insert made of electrically conductive material carrying the threaded surface and the contact surface, said insert having a side surface suitable for connecting the current to the insert, wherein an opening is disposed on a sidewall of the house leaving uncovered the side surface of the insert suitable for connecting the current to the insert, and wherein the insert is secured rotationally in an insert nest.
A connector for connecting a welding torch to a welding apparatus, the connector comprising a connector body, a nest for a wire-guide, a nest for a gas supply conduit disposed on a frontal area of the connector body, one or more electric contacts situated flush on the frontal area, a lead-out at a rear surface of the connector body, a wire-guide intermediate piece connected to the nest for the wire-guide from the back and a lead-in leading into the nest for the gas supply conduit, a threaded surface made of electrically conductive materials, a contact surface disposed beside the threaded surface, and a house made of insulating material surrounding the connector body from the side and shaped to be suitable for mounting the connector, characterized in that the connector body and the house are made of insulating material, designed as a unit in one piece connected by a rear wall, wherein the connector body has an insert made of electrically conductive material carrying the threaded surface and the contact surface, said insert having a side surface suitable for connecting a current to the insert, wherein an opening is disposed on a sidewall of the house leaving uncovered the side surface of the insert suitable for connecting the current to the insert, and wherein the insert is secured rotationally in an insert nest, and characterized in that the side surface of the insert has a thicker portion configured to fit into the opening on the sidewall of the house.
