The rear end of the support disk 1 is provided with a driving mechanism 3, the front end of the support disk 1 is rotatably connected to the rotating frame 2, the driving mechanism 3 is transmission-connected to the rotating frame 2, the knife seat 4 is hinged at intervals on the rotating frame 2, the knife seat 4 is provided with a tool 401, the front end of the support disk 1 is provided with a support frame 6, and the support frame 6 A hydraulic cylinder 5 is provided at the bottom end, and a sliding plate 7 is slidably connected to the support frame 6. Two conical pressure plates 701 are provided on the sliding plate 7. The hydraulic rod on the hydraulic cylinder 5 is connected to the sliding plate 7. A rotating motor 16 is provided at the front end of the sliding plate 7. A thick gear 15 is rotatably connected to the rear end of the sliding plate 7. The thick gear 15 passes through the sliding plate 7 and is connected to the output shaft of the rotating motor 16. The rotating motor 16 can drive the thick gear 15 to rotate. An inspection tube 14 is connected to the left side of the sliding plate 7. A plurality of detection probes 13 are arranged at intervals in the inspection tube 14. A circular LED light 20 is provided on the top of the inner side of the inspection tube 14. The detection probe 13 on the inspection tube 14 can detect the tool 401. The circular L The light emitted by the ED lamp 20 is irradiated on the surface of the tool 401, making it easier for the detection probe 13 to detect whether the tool 401 is damaged. The front end of the support frame 6 is connected to the fixed plate 8, and the support frame 6 supports the sliding plate 7 and the fixed plate 8. The fixed plate 8 is symmetrically and slidingly connected with a sliding rod 9. A first elastic member 17 is provided between the sliding rod 9 and the conical pressure plate 701. The sliding plate 7 and the fixed plate 8 both have an arc, and the size of the arc corresponds to the size of the arc of the rotating frame 2. A stopper 901 is provided at the front end of the two sliding rods 9. A thin gear 10 is rotatably connected to the two sliding rods 9. The thickness of the thick gear 15 is greater than that of the thin gear 10. Initially, when the sliding plate 7 is on the support When the frame 6 moves, the sliding plate 7 drives the thick gear 15 to move backward. The right thin gear 10 is connected with a cleaning cylinder 11, which can remove the cutting chips on the tool 401. The left thin gear 10 is connected with a sponge cylinder 12, which can remove the cutting fluid on the tool 401, remove the cutting chips and cutting fluid on the tool surface, keep the tool surface clean, and thus extend the service life of the tool. The driving mechanism 3 can drive the rotating frame 2 to rotate, so that the tool 401 on the tool holder 4 can be accurately aligned with the center of the cleaning cylinder 11, sponge cylinder 12 and inspection cylinder 14, ensuring that the tool 401 can be perfectly inserted into the cleaning cylinder 11, sponge cylinder 12 and inspection cylinder 14.

[0023] like Figure 6As shown, it also includes an arc plate 21 and a second elastic member 19. Four arc plates 21 are slidably connected to the thin gear 10. A second elastic member 19 is provided between each arc plate 21 and the thin gear 10. The cleaning cylinder 11 and the sponge cylinder 12 are both composed of four arc plates 21. The four arc plates 21 can be combined into a circular cylinder. The arc plates 21 of the cleaning cylinder 11 are provided with bristles, and the arc plates 21 of the sponge cylinder 12 are provided with sponges. The top ends of the arc plates 21 are in contact with the inner side surfaces of the conical pressure plate 701. The sliding plate 7 drives the conical pressure plate 701 to squeeze the arc plates 21. The second elastic member 19 changes from an initial state to a compressed state. When the arc plates 21 are combined into a circular cylinder, the rotating motor 16 is started to drive the thick gear 15 and the thin gear 10 to rotate, driving the arc plates 21 to rotate the cleaning tool 401.

[0024] When the tool 401 on the tool holder 4 needs to be cleaned, the driving mechanism 3 is started, and the driving mechanism 3 drives the rotating frame 2 to rotate, so that the tool 401 on the tool holder 4 rotates to the rear end of the cleaning cylinder 11. At this time, the hydraulic cylinder 5 is started, driving the sliding plate 7 to move backward, and the sliding plate 7 drives the sliding rod 9 to move backward. When the stopper 901 contacts the fixed plate 8, the sliding rod 9 stops moving. At this time, the three tools 401 are respectively located in the cleaning cylinder 11, the sponge cylinder 12 and the inspection cylinder 14, and the sliding plate 7 continues to move backward. During this process, the conical pressure plate 701 will squeeze the arc plate 21, and the four arc plates 21 move closer to each other. The first elastic member 17 changes from the initial state to the compressed state, and the second elastic member 19 changes from the initial state to the compressed state, so that the arc plates 21 move closer to each other, and the bristles in the cleaning cylinder 11 contact with the tool 401, and the sponge in the sponge cylinder 12 When the tool 401 comes into contact with the other tool, the rotary motor 16 is started. The rotary motor 16 drives the thick gear 15 to rotate. The thick gear 15 drives the thin gear 10 to rotate. The thin gear 10 drives the cleaning cylinder 11 and the sponge cylinder 12 to rotate together. The cleaning cylinder 11 removes the cutting chips from the tool 401. The sponge cylinder 12 removes the cutting fluid from the tool 401. The circular LED light 20 is turned on to illuminate the tool 401. The detection probe 13 detects whether the tool 401 is damaged. After the sponge cylinder 12 completes the inspection and cleaning of the tool 401, the rotary motor 16 is turned off and the hydraulic cylinder 5 is started. The hydraulic cylinder 5 drives the sliding plate 7 to reset. During this process, the sliding rod 9 and the rotary motor 16 will return to their original positions. The first elastic member 17 is reset. The conical pressure plate 701 no longer presses the arc plate 21. The arc plate 21 is reset, and the second elastic member 19 is also reset. Repeat the above operation to remove the cutting fluid from the tool 401 that has removed the cutting chips. Finally, the tool 401 is inspected.
