Abstract
A spot welding electrode removal apparatus that is compact and durable is provided. Specifically, the apparatus includes a J-shaped operating lever, and in a position adjacent to the end of the operating lever and facing the contact member, a pressing member is provided. The operating lever is pivotably supported at a portion of the operating lever closer to the end of the operating lever than the pressing member is by a portion of the rotating case adjacent to the side of the contact member. The electrode is placed between the contact member and the pressing member, and a pivotal operation of the operating lever toward the electrode allows the pressing member and the contact member to sandwich the electrode, and a further pivotal operation of the operating lever toward the electrode allows the electrode to rotate together with the rotating case, thereby removing the electrode from a shank end.
