    摘要: A feed assist unit includes a base portion having a plurality of ribs on a lower surface thereof. A dome portion is connected to the base portion, and a rotating conduit portion has a curved shape and is coupled to the dome portion. Each of the ribs has a first end adjacent to the dome portion and a second end adjacent an associated side of the base portion. The feed assist unit has first and second central axes oriented perpendicular to each other. First and third of the ribs are oriented parallel to the second central axis and the second and fourth of the ribs can be oriented parallel to the first central axis. The first and third ribs are offset from the second central axis by an offset length and the second and fourth ribs are offset from the first central axis the offset length.

    摘要: A system and method are disclosed for polishing and lubricating an aluminum welding wire. The system and method draw stock aluminum wire from a spool, subject the stock wire to a plurality of drawing and thermal treatment steps to obtain a wire having a final diameter suitable for use in a continuous welding apparatus. Immediately after the final drawing step, the wire is subjected to a polishing and lubricating process in which a cord that is impregnated with a lubricant is passed over the surface of the wire. The cord serves to remove contaminants, such as metal fines, from the surface of the wire, and also to provide a layer of lubricant over the surface of the wire. The resulting wire has an improved appearance, will not clog the automatic welding apparatus, and the lubricant will not contribute adversely to weld porosity in use.

    摘要: A wire shaping device for shaping a welding wire stored in a bulked storage container shapes the welding wire by flexing of the welding wire as it is drawn around sheaves. The wire shaping device can be located immediately adjacent to a wire feeding device of the welder. In use, the wire shaping device may include an inlet port for receiving the wire, a first rotatable sheave for receiving the wire from the inlet port, the first rotatable sheave being rotatable in a first direction; a second rotatable sheave for receiving the wire from the first rotatable sheave, the second rotatable sheave being rotatable in a second direction opposite of the first direction; and an outlet port for receiving the wire from the second rotatable sheave. The wire shaping device may also include a mounting plate and first and second rollers operatively associated with the first and second sheaves, respectively.
