[0047] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0048] Currently, the management of machine tool tools is carried out using a storage device for storage management. After use, the tools are directly placed in a storage box and wrapped and stored with sponges or other flexible parts. However, for machine tool tools, this storage method lacks the maintenance of the tools, and the tools will oxidize naturally, thus reducing the service life of the tools.

[0049] To solve the above technical problems, in at least one embodiment, a machine tool tool storage device for a numerically controlled machine tool is provided, including: a carrying mechanism 2, which includes a storage tray 21; wherein a plurality of protection mechanisms 1 are arranged on the upper end surface of the storage tray 21; and a motor 20 is arranged below the storage tray 21; the output end of the motor 20 is connected to the lower end surface of the storage tray 21 and is adapted to drive the storage tray 21 to rotate when the motor 20 is started, so as to drive a plurality of protection mechanisms 1 to rotate, and then place the tool 4 into the corresponding protection mechanism 1.

[0050] In some embodiments, for the tool 4 after use, when the operator stores it, the motor 20 is started, and its output end drives the carrying tray 21 to rotate. When a vacant protection mechanism 1 rotates in front of the operator, the motor 20 stops, and the air cylinder 22 is started to move the positioning rod 23 upward and insert it into the positioning hole 24 to position the carrying tray 21 and prevent it from shaking when the operator places the tool into the protection mechanism 1.

[0051] In some embodiments, for the placement of the tool 4, its tool tip 40 faces downward, and the tool tip 40 passes through the placement ring 12. Since the diameter of the placement ring 12 is smaller than that of the tool holder 41, the tool holder 41 is placed on the upper end surface of the placement ring 12. At this time, the tool tip 40 just inserts into the tool tip storage cylinder 11 for storage.

[0052] In some embodiments, when the tool bit 40 moves downward through the placement ring 12, its outer wall contacts the two clamping members 14, pushing the two clamping members 14 away from each other. One end of the clamping member 14 close to the tool bit 40 is an arc-shaped chuck 13. A square tube 14 provided on the outer side of the clamping member 14 slides on the sliding rod 15. At this time, the spring 16 is compressed. When the tool holder 41 is placed on the upper end surface of the placement ring 12, the resilience of the spring 16 is used to push the two clamping members 13 to clamp the tool bit 41, preventing the tool 4 from shaking.

[0053] In some embodiments, during the movement of the clamping member 14, the rack 17 fixed on its outer wall moves along with it, thereby driving the rotation of the gear 33 meshing with the rack 17. The gear 33 is fixed to the rotating shaft 32, and the bottom end of the rotating shaft 32 is connected to the inner bottom end of the oil cylinder 30 by a bearing. Therefore, the rotating shaft 32 rotates along with it, and the piston member 31 is threadedly engaged with the rotating shaft 32, and Figure 3 As can be seen, a slideway is provided on the inner wall of the oil cylinder 30. A slider fixed on the outer wall of the piston member 31 is connected to the slideway, which can realize driving the piston member 31 to move downward in the oil cylinder 30 during the rotation of the rotating shaft 32, squeezing out the protective oil inside the oil cylinder 30, and squeezing it into the tool bit storage cylinder 11 through the oil outlet pipe 35. The flexible protective member provided on the inner wall of the tool bit storage cylinder 11 is preferably a sponge, and the sponge absorbs the protective oil. When the tool bit 40 is inserted into the tool bit storage cylinder 11, the tool bit 40 is wrapped and maintained by the sponge that absorbs the protective oil.

[0054] In some embodiments, when the tool 4 needs to be used, the tool 4 is directly taken out manually. If there is a large amount of protective oil in the tool bit storage cylinder 11, it will deposit at the bottom end of the tool bit storage cylinder 11. As the tool 4 is removed, the spring 16 pushes the clamping member 14 to reset. At this time, the rack 17 drives the gear 33 to reverse, that is, the piston member moves upward in the oil cylinder 30, and through the oil inlet pipe 34, the protective oil deposited at the bottom end of the tool bit storage cylinder 11 is absorbed, preventing the protective oil from volatilizing after being in contact with air for a long time.

[0055] In summary, by providing a protection mechanism, after the tool is used and stored, when the tool bit of the tool is oiled to prevent oxidation, and the thickness of the stored tool bit is measured, while achieving the effect of tightly clamping the tool, different amounts of protective oil are squeezed out to maintain different tools, which not only improves the service life of the tool but also saves the use of protective oil.

For example, it may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it may be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it may be the communication inside two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.
