[0035] Working principle: When it is desired to adjust the tilt angle of the top plate 1, the power motor 7 is turned on. The power motor 7 drives the first worm 8 to rotate. The first worm 8 drives the first worm gear 10 to rotate. The first worm gear 10 drives the rotating disc 11 to rotate. The rotating disc 11 drives the sliding column 12 to rotate along the rotating disc 11. At the same time, the sliding column 12 slides up and down along the inner wall of the rotating disc 11. The sliding column 12 drives the swing frame 13 to swing along the swing column 3. At the same time, the swing frame 13 drives the swing column 3 to rotate, driving the fixed frame 2 to rotate. The fixed frame 2 drives the top plate 1 to tilt, thus conveniently adjusting the tilt angle of the top plate 1, which is suitable for use in inclined disk tool magazines with various tilt angles. When it is desired to protect the internal structure of the tool magazine bracket when the tool magazine is not in use, the electric push rod 15 is turned on. The electric push rod 15 drives the support plate 5 to descend, causing the support plate 5 to slide down into the interior of the protective sleeve 17, thereby preventing metal chips from splashing during machine tool cutting and damaging the internal structure of the tool magazine bracket.
