Specifically, the inner diameter of the upper electrode head is larger than or equal to the outer diameter of the guide pipe 2 and smaller than the outer diameter of the guide pipe flange 4.
It should be noted that, since the first upper electrode 301 and the second upper electrode 302 need to perform a welding function and a certain pressure needs to be applied to the pipe flange during a welding operation, the first upper electrode 301 and the second upper electrode 302 may be made of a high hardness and high conductivity material. Alternatively, the first and second upper electrodes 301 and 302 may be made of copper or a copper alloy.
The upper electrode assembly 30 of the embodiment of the present invention further includes two connecting blocks, namely a first connecting block 311 and a second connecting block 312, wherein the bottom surface of the first connecting block 311 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the first upper electrode 301, and the bottom surface of the second connecting block is fixedly connected to the top surface of the second upper electrode; the first upper electrode 301 is driven based on the first connection block 311, and the second upper electrode 302 is driven based on the second connection block 312.

If the lower electrode assembly is provided with a catheter pre-positioning pin, the catheter positioning pin 320 can directly extend into the catheter due to the fact that the catheter is located within a fixed position range; if the lower electrode assembly is not provided with the catheter pre-positioning pin, the operator can manually sleeve the catheter into the catheter positioning pin 320 or manually place the catheter on the catheter interface, and then operate the catheter positioning pin 320 to extend the catheter positioning pin into the catheter to position the catheter.

In one embodiment, the insulating layer 50 may be an elastic insulating layer or a hard insulating layer, such as a plastic pad or a bakelite board. Because the elastic insulating layer has certain deformation capacity and can simultaneously have the functions of the insulating layer and the electrode balancer, the electrode balancer does not need to be additionally arranged under the condition that the insulating layer 50 adopts the elastic insulating layer; alternatively, the insulating layer 50 may be a hard insulating layer, and the electrode balancer is a plurality of nitrogen springs disposed above the insulating layer 50.
