[0043] Refer to Figure 3 、 Figure 4 And Figure 6 , which is basically the same as Embodiment 2. Furthermore, the specific implementation scheme of the nozzle of the spray pipe 20 blowing air is specifically disclosed.
[0044] A support plate 15 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower end of the device slot 2. An elastic airbag 16 is fixedly installed on the support plate 15. Among them, an air suction pipe 18 and an exhaust pipe 17 communicated with the elastic airbag 16 are fixedly connected to the elastic airbag 16.

[0045] When the tool rest 4 drives a plurality of cylindrical blocks 6 to sweep circumferentially, the cylindrical blocks 6 will also drive the first bumps 19 at the bottom to slide over the outer wall of the elastic airbag 16. When the elastic airbag 16 is squeezed, it will discharge air through the exhaust pipe 17, so as to automatically supply air to the spray pipe 20, making it more convenient to use. When the elastic airbag 16 is not squeezed, the elastic airbag 16 will elastically reset and suck air through the air suction pipe 18. Moreover, the rotating cylindrical blocks 6 will also drive the first bumps 19 at the lower end to sweep circumferentially, so as to repeatedly squeeze the elastic airbag 16, and then make the spray pipe 20 blow air repeatedly through the nozzle, which can improve the cleaning effect on the tool.
[0046] Furthermore, passive gears 13 are fixedly installed on the outer walls of the lower ends of the plurality of cylindrical blocks 6, and an annular gear 14 meshed with the passive gears 13 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the device groove 2;
[0047] When the tool rest 4 rotates, the tool rest 4 will drive a plurality of cylindrical blocks 6 to sweep circumferentially. The cylindrical blocks 6 will drive the passive gears 13 to sweep on the annular gear 14. The annular gear 14 will drive the cylindrical blocks 6 to rotate by themselves through the passive gears 13. The cylindrical blocks 6 will drive the tools in the card slots 7 to rotate by themselves. At this time, the spray pipe 20 can blow off the iron filings remaining on the outer wall of the tool through the nozzle, thus completing the automatic cleaning work of the tool, making it more convenient to use.
[0048] Furthermore, a top rod 32 that abuts against the inner bottom of the device groove 2 is fixedly connected to the lower end of each of the plurality of cylindrical blocks 6. A plurality of second bumps 33 distributed circumferentially are fixedly installed on the inner bottom of the device groove 2. When the top rod 32 sweeps circumferentially, the plurality of second bumps 33 will sequentially lift the top rod 32;
[0049] When the cylindrical blocks 6 sweep circumferentially, the cylindrical blocks 6 will also drive a plurality of top rods 32 to sweep circumferentially on the inner bottom of the device groove 2. When the top rod 32 passes over the plurality of second bumps 33, the second bumps 33 will lift the top rod 32 upward. When the top rod 32 passes over the second bumps 33, the top rod 32 will move downward to reset, thereby driving the cylindrical blocks 6 and the upper tools to move up and down, so that the nozzle can clean the tools more efficiently. Embodiment 4
[0050] Refer to Figures 3 - 5 , which is basically the same as Embodiment 3. Furthermore, a specific implementation scheme for iron filings adsorption is specifically added.
[0051] The inner wall of the annular cover 8 is provided with a chute 21. Inside the port of the chute 21, an iron plate 24 facing the nozzle 20 is fixedly installed. Among them, an attracting component for intermittently generating magnetism for the iron plate 24 is arranged in the chute 21. The attracting component includes a permanent magnet plate 22 slidably connected in the chute 21. There is a gap between the permanent magnet plate 22 and the iron plate 24. Among them, a flat elastic hose 23 is fixedly installed between the permanent magnet plate 22 and the inner wall of the chute 21. The two ends of the elastic hose 23 are respectively fixedly connected to a first connecting pipe 30 and a second connecting pipe 31. The ends of the first connecting pipe 30 and the second connecting pipe 31 are respectively fixedly connected and communicated with the nozzle 20 and the exhaust pipe 17; the inner wall of the annular cover 8 is provided with an inclined chute 27. A sloping plate 26 is longitudinally slidably connected in the inclined chute 27. A recovery box 25 is detachably installed on the outer wall of the annular cover 8. Among them, the lower end of the sloping plate 26 extends to the upper port of the recovery box 25, and the sloping plate 26 is located below the iron plate 24.
[0052] When the nozzle blows air, the iron filings on the tool will be blown onto the sloping plate 26, and then pass through the inclined chute 27 on the sloping plate 26 and slide into the recovery box 25, thus completing the effective collection work of the iron filings and preventing the cleaned iron filings from contaminating the tool again. When the exhaust pipe 17 exhausts air, the exhaust pipe 17 transports air into the elastic hose 23 through the second connecting pipe 31. The elastic hose 23 expands under the action of the sudden air flow and transports air to the nozzle 20 through the first connecting pipe 30. When the elastic hose 23 expands, it will push the permanent magnet plate 22 towards the iron plate 24. At this time, the iron plate 24 will obtain the magnetic attraction force of the permanent magnet plate 22, so that the iron filings on the tool can be attracted to the iron plate 24, thereby further improving the effect of the nozzle cleaning the tool. When the exhaust pipe 17 stops exhausting air and the elastic hose 23 empties all the air inside, the elastic hose 23 will elastically reset, thereby driving the permanent magnet plate 22 to move away from the iron plate 24. The iron plate 24 no longer has magnetism, and the iron filings adsorbed on the iron plate 24 will automatically fall onto the sloping plate 26, which can prevent the iron filings on the iron plate 24 from being too much and affecting the effect of adsorbing iron filings, and can indirectly improve the effect of cleaning the iron filings on the tool.
[0053] Furthermore, the lower end of the permanent magnet plate 22 is fixedly connected with a connecting rod 28 extending into the inclined chute 27. The lower end of the connecting rod 28 is fixedly connected with the sloping plate 26. Among them, a rod groove 29 extending into the inclined chute 27 is arranged in the chute 21. The connecting rod 28 is slidably connected in the rod groove 29. When the permanent magnet plate 22 approaches and moves away from the iron plate 24, the permanent magnet plate 22 will also drive the sloping plate 26 to move synchronously through the connecting rod 28. The sloping plate 26 can shake off the iron filings into the recovery box 25 more efficiently, thereby improving the recovery efficiency of the iron filings.
[0054] When this tool carrier is in use, the manipulator 3 can place multiple tools of different models into multiple slots 7 respectively. When placing, just insert the handle of the tool into the slot 7, so that the tools can be conveniently placed and taken. During operation, the automatic operation of the tools can be completed by the cylindrical vehicle body 1, and the operation is extremely simple and convenient. During the operation process, the annular cover 8 can effectively isolate and protect the tools to prevent the tools from being damaged by external factors. When taking and placing the tools, the driving motor 10 drives the driving gear 11 to rotate, and the driving gear 11 can drive the tool bed 4 to rotate through the driven gear 12. The tool bed 4 can drive multiple tools to rotate in the annular cover 8. When the tool to be taken moves to the opening 9, it can be taken by the manipulator 3. On the contrary, just insert the tool to be placed into the slot 7. The taking and placing of the tools are very convenient.
[0055] When the tool bed 4 rotates, the tool bed 4 will drive multiple cylindrical blocks 6 to sweep circumferentially. The cylindrical blocks 6 will drive the passive gears 13 to sweep on the annular gear 14. The annular gear 14 will drive the cylindrical blocks 6 to rotate self by the passive gears 13. The cylindrical blocks 6 will drive the tools in the slots 7 to rotate self. At this time, the nozzle 20 can blow off the iron filings remaining on the outer wall of the tool through the nozzle, thus completing the automatic cleaning of the tool, which is more convenient to use.
[0056] When the tool bed 4 drives multiple cylindrical blocks 6 to sweep circumferentially, the cylindrical blocks 6 will also drive the first bumps 19 at the bottom to slide over the outer wall of the elastic airbag 16. When the elastic airbag 16 is squeezed, it will discharge air through the exhaust pipe 17, thus automatically supplying air to the nozzle 20, which is more convenient to use. When the elastic airbag 16 is not squeezed, the elastic airbag 16 will elastically reset and suck air through the air suction pipe 18. The rotating cylindrical blocks 6 will also drive the first bumps 19 at the lower end to sweep circumferentially, thus repeatedly squeezing the elastic airbag 16, and then making the nozzle 20 blow air repeatedly through the nozzle, so as to improve the cleaning effect on the tool.
[0057] When the cylindrical blocks 6 sweep circumferentially, the cylindrical blocks 6 will also drive multiple ejector rods 32 to sweep circumferentially at the inner bottom of the device slot 2. When the ejector rods 32 pass by multiple second bumps 33, the second bumps 33 will push the ejector rods 32 upward. When the ejector rods 32 cross the second bumps 33, the ejector rods 32 will move downward to reset, thus driving the cylindrical blocks 6 and the upper tools to move up and down, so that the nozzle can clean the tools more efficiently.
[0058] When the nozzle blows air, it will blow the iron filings on the tool onto the inclined plate 26, and then the iron filings will pass through the inclined groove 27 on the inclined plate 26 and slide into the recycling box 25, thus completing the effective collection of iron filings, preventing the cleaned iron filings from contaminating the tool again. When the exhaust pipe 17 exhausts air, the exhaust pipe 17 transports air into the elastic hose 23 through the second connecting pipe 31. The elastic hose 23 expands under the action of the sudden air flow and transports air to the nozzle 20 through the first connecting pipe 30. When the elastic hose 23 expands, it will push the permanent magnet plate 22 towards the iron plate 24. At this time, the iron plate 24 will receive the magnetic attraction of the permanent magnet plate 22, so that the iron filings on the tool can be attracted to the iron plate 24, further improving the effect of cleaning the tool by the nozzle. When the exhaust pipe 17 stops exhausting air and the elastic hose 23 empties all the air inside, the elastic hose 23 will elastically reset, driving the permanent magnet plate 22 away from the iron plate 24. The iron plate 24 no longer has magnetism, and the iron filings adsorbed on the iron plate 24 will automatically fall onto the inclined plate 26, preventing the excessive iron filings on the iron plate 24 from affecting the effect of adsorbing iron filings, and indirectly improving the effect of cleaning the iron filings on the tool.
[0059] When the permanent magnet plate 22 approaches and moves away from the iron plate 24, the permanent magnet plate 22 will also drive the inclined plate 26 to move synchronously through the connecting rod 28, and the inclined plate 26 can shake off the iron filings into the recycling box 25 more efficiently, thus improving the recycling efficiency of iron filings.
[0060] Finally, it should be noted that regarding the software part:

When the management system issues a transportation instruction, the carrier device goes to the designated loading and unloading location to load and unload tools according to the task order instruction. When the tool enters the tool bed, the tool bed reads the RFID to confirm the information of each tool slot and the corresponding placed tool. When the tool is a tool unloaded from the machining center, the RFID tag contains information such as the tool life and the reason for unloading. After the tool management system receives the information, it performs algorithm judgments such as grinding and scrapping.
