[0027] During use, through the mutual cooperation between the storage box 1, lifting door 2, first slide 3, connecting block 4, cylinder 5, mounting frame 6, connecting slide 7, guide slide 8, dehumidification device 19, humidity sensor 20 and other components, when changing the tool, first start the cylinder 5, the cylinder 5 drives the connecting block 4 to rise, and the rise of the connecting block 4 drives the lifting door 2 to rise. At the same time, the connecting slide 7 also rises with the rise of the connecting block 4, so that it is more stable during the rising process of the lifting door 2. The rise of the lifting door 2 makes the storage box 1 in an open state, and then the tool change operation is performed. After the tool change is completed, the lifting door 2 is operated again so that the lifting door 2 seals the storage box 1. The humidity inside the tool magazine is monitored in real time by the humidity sensor 20. When the humidity exceeds the set threshold, the dehumidification device 19 automatically starts to reduce the humidity inside the storage box 1, providing an effective moisture-proof measure for the tool body 16, protecting the tool body 16 from the influence of environmental humidity, and ensuring tool performance and processing quality.
[0028] The left and right inner walls of the front end of the storage box 1 are respectively provided with connecting slides 10 in the vertical direction, and the two first slides 3 are slidably connected to the corresponding connecting slides 10, and the sealing strip fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting door 2 is slidably connected in the sealing groove 22.
