The invention relates to a securing element (30) arranged between a gas element (32) and a current element (33) of the plug-in element (28). A fixing element (34) is arranged in the coupling (29) of the torch handle and meshes with said securing element (30), and, for guiding over said fixing element (34) arranged in the coupling (29), the gas element (32) has a diameter smaller than those of the securing element (30) and of the current element (33). Said securing element (30) can be guided over the fixing element (34) using a flat area (35), while the gas element (32) is arranged in a gas bore hole (37) in the coupling (29) in a sealing manner. The position of the torch body (27) can be freely adjusted by means of a manual rotational movement, said fixing element (34) being guided in a circumferential groove (36) in said securing element (30).
A securing system for detachably securing a torch body of a TIG welding torch to a torch handle and for transmitting at least the media gas and current, comprising:
A torch body with a securing system of a TIG welding torch for detachably securing the torch body of the TIG welding torch to a torch handle and for transmitting at least the media gas and current, the securing system comprising a cylindrical plug-in element connected to the torch body and a coupling connected to the torch handle, said coupling detachably receiving the plug-in element, wherein the plug-in element comprises a gas element and a current element and an interposed securing element including a flat area, a circumferential groove and a web, wherein the gas element has a diameter smaller than those of the securing element and the current element, and wherein the coupling comprises a gas bore and a fixing element, via which fixing element the securing element with the flat area can be guided into a plugged-together state until the gas element is sealingly arranged in the gas bore of the coupling, wherein, in the plugged-together state, the plug-in element is adjustably rotatable relative to the coupling, with the fixing element being guided in the groove of the plug-in element and wherein in the plugged-together state, the plug-in element is adjustably rotatable relative to the coupling of the securing system.
