(Prior art) Conventionally, as a temperature measuring device in the welding process of ERW steel pipes, a work coil (or contact chip) and a welding device are described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 57-79084 "Method for controlling welding heat input of ERW steel pipes". A device that measures the temperature of the outer circumferential surface of the metal strip near the edge at a predetermined position between the abutting points with a TV camera, and a work coil and welding butt are included in JP-A No. 57-165188 ``Welding control method for electric resistance welded steel pipes.'' A device is known that measures the temperature in the thickness direction of a plate at any position between the joining points.

However, in the former case, when the butt angle is incorporated into heat input control, the measurement position resolution depends on the equipment specifications.
0.4mm (outer diameter 91φ, using 48000 fibers)
Therefore, based on past experience and the required operational resolution of 0.17 mm or less, the measurement position resolution was not satisfactory. The latter assumes that the temperature in the wall thickness direction is measured at any point between the work coil and the welding butt point, but the edge end face of the ERW steel pipe whose temperature should be measured with a thermometer is Due to the characteristics of the forming surface of ERW steel pipes, there is no position where the thermometer can fit the entire wall thickness within the field of view, and this has the disadvantage that it is physically extremely difficult to do so in actual equipment.
