摘要:
If arc interruption occurs during AC arc welding, a first AC frequency predetermined for normal welding is switched to a second AC frequency higher than the first AC frequency. This allows the arc to be reignited without applying a high frequency high voltage, thereby preventing the damage of the surface of the weld bead or communication failure due to the high frequency high voltage.

An arc welding apparatus having output terminals of a constant current characteristic and a constant voltage characteristic is simply provided at low cost with a reactor appropriate for both the characteristics. A current control circuit 2 controls a secondary output current of a welding transformer 1 by means of a current control device, while a first reactor 3 and a second reactor 4 are constructed so that magnetic flux formed by a first winding 3a and magnetic flux formed by a second winding 4a, which are wound around an annular iron core 7, overlap each other. The other terminal of the first reactor 3 is connected to a constant current characteristic output terminal 8, while the other terminal of the second reactor 4 is connected to a welding base metal use output terminal 10. A constant voltage characteristic output terminal 9 and one terminal of the first reactor 3 are connected to the positive side of the current control circuit 2, while one terminal of the second reactor 4 is connected to the negative side of the current control circuit 2.

摘要:
A welder has an electromagnetic switch for turning on and off the power to be supplied to the welder, a control circuit for controlling the turn on and off of this switch according to a starter signal that starts the welder and self-holding circuit for self-holding the switch. This self-holding circuit releases the switch from the self-holding when a voltage of the control circuit lowers to not more than a turn-on voltage of the switch. Therefore, when an applied voltage decreases too low to maintain the turn-on status, the switch is released from its self-holding. A voltage can thus never be applied again to the control circuit unless the starter signal is once turned off. As a result, a coil of the switch is completely free from being burnt out. Also current can be cut off when a temperature of the coil of the switch rises to not less than a given value. Therefore, if an abnormal temperature of the coil is sensed, the coil current is cut off. As a result, the coil of the switch is completely free from being burnt out.
