Abstract
A spot welding tip detaching apparatus includes a movable plate, an engaging/stopping part, and a holder part. The movable plate has a guide hole through which a shaft set upright in a base plate is inserted with a gap being left between the guide hole and the shaft, rotatable relative to the base plate, and movable along the base plate within a range of the guide hole. The engaging/stopping part stops the movable plate at a predetermined position of the base plate by engagement in an engageable/disengageable manner. The holder part is provided integrally on the movable plate to hold a tip fitted in a spot welding gun. The holder part sandwiches the tip between two members of the holder part. According to movement of the tip along a predetermined route, the holder part rotates the tip, while holding the tip, to detach the tip from the spot welding gun.
