  • Patent number: 5893510
    Abstract: A welding device is disclosed having an elongated actuator arm which is secured to a main post by a cross arm. The cross arm is both slidably and pivotally mounted to the main support post and also pivotally and slidably secured to the actuator arm by an arcuate link. An elongated linkage bar extends through the actuator arm and a welding gun is attached to one end of the linkage bar. An elongated handle is perpendicularly secured to the linkage bar at its other end adjacent the opposite end of the actuator arm so that movement of the handle simultaneously moves the welding gun. The handle, furthermore, includes a hand grip at each end and the linkage bar is secured to the handle at a position closely adjacent one of the hand grips and thus at a position between the center of the handle and one of the hand grips.

  • Patent number: 5593081
    Abstract: A welding device is disclosed having an elongated actuator arm which is secured to a main support post by a cross arm. The cross arm is both slidably and pivotably mounted to the main support post and also pivotably and slidably secured to the actuator arm to enable a wide range of movement for the actuator arm. An elongated linkage bar extends through the actuator arm and a welding gun is attached to one end of the linkage bar. A handle is secured to the linkage bar adjacent the opposite end of the actuator arm so that movement of the handle simultaneously moves the welding gun. A second lever is also secured to the linkage bar at a midpoint along the actuator arm such that movement of the lever also moves the welding gun in the same fashion as the handle.
