Abstract: A collision protection device for connecting a welding torch connected to a hose pack to a robot arm of a welding robot, comprising two coupling elements that is adapted to be detachably connected to each other by means of magnets, wherein one coupling element is designed to be connected to the welding torch or to a torch coupling that is adapted to be connected to the welding torch, and the other coupling element is designed to be connected to the robot arm, and the coupling elements have openings. The openings in the coupling elements are designed for feeding the hose pack through, and the coupling element that is adapted to be connected to the welding torch or to the torch coupling, or the torch coupling comprises elements to be connected to the hose pack.

Abstract: The invention relates to a collision protection device (1) for connecting a welding torch (2) connected to a hose pack (4) to a robot arm (3) of a welding robot, comprising two coupling elements (6, 7) that is adapted to be detachably connected to each other by means of magnets (8), wherein one coupling element (6) is designed to be connected to the welding torch (2) or to a torch coupling (5) that is adapted to be connected to the welding torch (2), and the other coupling element (7) is designed to be connected to the robot arm (3), and the coupling elements (6, 7) have openings (10, 11), characterized in that the openings (10, 11) in the coupling elements (6, 7) are designed for feeding the hose pack (4) through, and that the coupling element (6) that is adapted to be connected to the welding torch (2) or to the torch coupling (5), or the torch coupling (5) comprises elements (15) to be connected to the hose pack (4).
