AI Technical Summary
In existing machine tool tool changing systems, the tool sleeve of the horizontal tool changing mechanism is prone to detaching during tool changing, leading to tool changing failure.
A tool arm locking mechanism was designed, comprising a cam drive module, a cam rocker arm assembly, a self-locking assembly, and a tool holder self-locking mechanism. The cam rocker arm mechanism controls the self-locking pin to push out and release the self-locking rod, ensuring that the tool holder does not fall off during tool changing.
This effectively prevents the tool holder from detaching during tool changing, ensuring successful tool changing and improving the reliability and stability of the machine tool.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of machine tool tool changing systems, and in particular to a tool arm locking mechanism for a machining tool tool changing system. Background Technology
[0002] The standard machine tool tool changing mechanism is vertical, with the tool arm positioned horizontally below the tool changing mechanism. The self-locking spring pin controlling the tension of the tool arm and tool sleeve is in a relaxed state before the tool is pulled down. When the output shaft is pulled down and the spring pin is relaxed, the self-locking spring pin will pop out and lock the tool sleeve to prevent it from falling off during tool changing. In a horizontal tool changing mechanism, the tool arm is positioned vertically. If the self-locking spring pin has not yet moved to lock the tool sleeve when the tool is pulled down, there is a high probability that the tool sleeve will fall off the tool arm, resulting in tool changing failure. Therefore, the purpose of this patent application is to add a pre-locking mechanism.
[0003] The existing technology, CN202121158853X, has the following disadvantages in the current use of tool magazines: The standard tool changer system is a horizontal tool changer. There is a flange at the tool locking point that fits into the groove of the tool sleeve. When the tool changer is not pulled down, the locking mechanism is not pulled down, and the push rod is not popped up, the tool sleeve will not disengage from the tool locking point. Rotating the standard ATC40 tool changer system 90 degrees so that its output shaft is in a horizontal position and the tool arm is in a vertical position, it becomes the ATC40 horizontal tool changer system. Because the tool arm is perpendicular to the ground, the flange on the tool locking point of the tool arm cannot support the tool sleeve when the tool changer starts. The self-locking push rod does not pop up to lock the tool sleeve because the output shaft of the ATC40 tool changer system is not pulled down. As a result, the tool sleeve is easy to disengage from the tool locking point during the tool changer operation, causing the tool changer to fail.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a tool arm locking mechanism for a machine tool tool changing system to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tool arm locking mechanism for a tool changing system of a machining tool, so as to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings of the existing technology.
