Definitions
- the invention relates to a steam plasma burner with a burner handle and a burner body, wherein in the burner body, a liquid supply, a heater, a combustion chamber, a cathode connected to the cathode holder and a nozzle formed as an anode is arranged with an outlet opening.
- the invention relates to a cathode and a nozzle for such a water vapor plasma burner.
- Liquid or water is passed from a tank via a corresponding line to the burner and heated there by means of a heater to steam and passed through corresponding channels in the combustion chamber, where it generates a plasma as a plasma-forming medium.
- the plasma jet exits the nozzle without current, where it can be used to melt workpieces due to the high energy density. Since the plasma jet flows out of the nozzle of the burner without current and no arc is generated between the nozzle to the workpiece to be machined, non-conductive materials can be thermally processed. In addition to the cutting of workpieces can be carried out by means of a steam plasma burner also joining workpieces.

- this also ensures that when terminating a cutting process, the liquid 8 can be better recycled from the burner body 6b, as a Durckabfall arises and thus the liquid 8 is automatically withdrawn into the cooling circuit, ie, that when finishing the process, the pressure in the Cooling circuit inlet 47 and cooling circuit return line 48 is reduced, but in the burner body ⁇ b, in particular in the liquid supply 32 due to the smaller cross section is still upright, so that the liquid 8 from the burner body 6b, in particular the liquid supply line 32, now in the cooling circuit 11, ie in the cooling circuit supply line 47 or cooling circuit return line 48, flows back and the hot liquid 8 is immediately removed via the cooling circuit 11 in the burner handle 6a.
- overheating of the torch body 6b after completion of the cutting process is prevented.
- bypass line 50 may have the same cross-section or diameter as the cooling circuit feed line 47 and the cooling circuit return line 48, since in the burner body 6b, in particular in the liquid feed line 32, a reduction in diameter or diameter reduction is performed, so that only as much liquid 8 to the combustion chamber 27, which is necessary for a cutting or welding process, but a regulation of the amount of liquid 8 can be done via the pressure.

- the safety latch 52 is a release device, which may be executed for example by a micro-switch (not shown), activated, whereby a signal is sent to the control device 3 by pressing the switching element 53.
- a release device ensures that only when you press the safety bar 52, the switching element 53 can be activated so that when a broken safety bar 52, the switching element 53 can not be activated.
- the cathode 22 is designed accordingly, so that the heat from the region of the combustion chamber 27 can be passed into the underlying region of the cathode holder 28.
- the cathode 22 has a plane or planar end face which, when screwed into the cathode holder 28, preferably has a full surface connection with the material of the cathode holder 28.
