Abstract

Disclosed is a hot air welder that consecutively joins sheets of synthetic resin material together to make a large-sized pavilion or a tent fabric, or welds and seals the seam lines of waterproof textiles or the like for waterproofing process. Instead of the conventional table-shaped body, there are provided an upright-standing drive body; hot-air welding means on an upper-side of the drive body; upper and lower drive rollers under the welding means, and wherein the welding work is performed by rotating and using alternatively the upper drive roller or the lower drive roller, according to the kind of fabrics to be welded and the work-substances. Therefore the heat welding and waterproofing process may be performed more easily for more various shaped work-substances, and that the troublesome work-substances such as sleeve or shoulder parts of waterproof clothes that have various positioned and shaped seam lines may be moved and rotated easily by the worker to be heat-welded and become waterproofed.
