Abstract
An adjustable welding head oscillator in which rotary motion is transformed into sinusoidal reciprocatory motion and transferred to a welding head. A cam follower is adapted for receiving rotary motion from an eccentric arm and translating the rotary motion into sinusoidal reciprocatory motion. The cam follower is mounted on a swing bar having another point along its length connected to the cam follower which is reciprocated with the same amplitude as the cam follower. The welding head is attached to the reciprocating swing bar at selected points along the length of the swing bar. The amplitude of oscillation of the welding head is adjusted by varying the location of the welding head with respect to the swing bar.
