Title:
WELDING EQUIPMENT AND WELDING METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2009/005174
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Welding equipment includes a torch for irradiating a laser beam (B), wire feeding
means (2) for feeding a filler wire (F), and a tracking means (3) for controlling
the moving tracks of the torch (1) and the wire feeding means (2) to make a welding
line (Y) copy them. The tracking means (3) has a contactor (30A) provided to freely
advance/retract for making contact with a joint object (W) resiliently. The
joint objects (W) are jointed mutually by touching the contactor (30A) of the
tracking means (3) resiliently to the joint object (W) while feeding the filler
wire (F) to a welding portion and irradiating that portion with a laser beam (B),
thereby moving the torch and the wire feeding means (2) to copy the welding line
(Y).
