[0036] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 7As shown, in this embodiment, a plurality of limiting grooves 21 are provided on the top of the front side wall of the shell body 2; the limiting grooves 21 are adapted to fit the stop rods 411; a square groove 22 is provided on the front outer wall of the shell body 2 near the limiting assembly 41; when the sliding door 3 is closed, part of the rotating rod 418 and the rotating handle 419 in the limiting assembly 41 are located in the square groove 22, which is convenient for the operator to rotate the rotating handle 419 to fix the sliding door 3; an observation window 31 is provided on the front outer wall of the sliding door 3; the observation window 31 is made of a transparent protective material, such as a polycarbonate plate or tempered glass, which can protect the operator from the impact of the sliding door 3.

[0037] The working principle of a protective cover for a CNC machine tool provided by the utility model is as follows:

[0038] When it is necessary to fix the position of the sliding door on the shell to keep it stationary: the operator holds the rotating handle and rotates the rotary rod into the inner cavity until the top of the roller touches plane b; the inward rotation of the rotary rod drives the L-shaped block to slide along the T-shaped guide rail, and the sliding of the L-shaped block causes the roller to roll over plane a, arc surface a, arc surface b and plane b in sequence; in this process, the spring is compressed, the stop rod moves downward, passes through the through hole, and is fitted into the limit slot, completing the limiting function of the limit assembly.

[0039] When it is necessary to release the sliding door from the shell: the operator holds the rotating handle and unscrews the rotary rod from the inner cavity until the top of the roller touches plane a; the outward rotation of the rotary rod drives the L-shaped block to slide along the T-shaped guide rail, and the sliding of the L-shaped block causes the roller to roll over plane b, arc surface b, arc surface a and plane a in sequence; in this process, the extension and reset of the spring drives the stop rod to move upward, and the stop rod slides out of the limit groove, returning to its initial state, and releasing the limit of the limit assembly.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
