The center head of the existing machine tool center is usually conical, and the center head is inserted into the center hole of the blade to realize the positioning of the blade. However, in the process of blade processing, the center hole of the blade often deforms due to stress, at which time the center head and the center hole do not match, the center head cannot be inserted into the center hole, or a gap appears between the center head and the center hole, causing the blade to loosen. This leads to a decrease in the positioning accuracy and stability of the center. SUMMARY

[0005] Further characterized in that:
[0006] A plug is arranged on the bottom end cover of the shaft body;
[0007] The plug and the end cover are used to prevent the pressed needle bearing, thrust ball bearing and angular contact ball bearing from being axially displaced when stressed.
[0008] By adopting the above structure of the present application, the tooth surface pressing block is pressed against the flat surface at the orifice of the center hole of the blade, and the extremely high friction and engagement force of the tooth surface pressing block can realize the stable positioning of the blade, and the positioning is not dependent on the center hole, and even if the center hole is deformed, it can still be used, thereby improving the positioning precision and stability of the blade and ensuring the machining precision of the blade. The arrangement of the needle bearing, the thrust ball bearing and the angular contact ball bearing can prevent the radial displacement of the center, thereby ensuring the positioning precision and stability. The arrangement of the plug and the end cover can compress the needle bearing, the thrust ball bearing and the angular contact ball bearing, prevent the axial displacement of the bearing under force, and further ensure the positioning precision and stability and the machining precision of the blade. The first sealing ring and the second sealing ring ensure the installation sealing between the end cover, the center shaft and the center seat, prevent the center itself from loosening, ensure the positioning precision and stability from the perspective of ensuring the installation stability of the device, and ensure the machining precision of the blade.
