[0022] As shown in Figures 1 to 4 The utility model provides a form milling cutter convenient to change tool bit, including handle main part 1, the surface of handle main part 1 is installed with connecting head 2, the threaded hole of the surface of connecting head 2 is connected with threaded rod 3 with screw thread, one end of threaded rod 3 is installed with milling cutter head 4, the other end of threaded rod 3 is installed with connecting rod 5, one end of connecting rod 5 passes through connecting head 2 and is inserted in the through hole of the surface of handle main part 1, the surface of handle main part 1 is seted up with through slot 6, the surface of through slot 6 is installed with elastic sheet 7, the surface of the side close to connecting rod 5 of elastic sheet 7 is installed with knob 8, knob 8 is inserted in the insertion hole of the surface of connecting rod 5, the surface of handle main part 1 is installed with protection mechanism 9, thereby can carry out dismounting replacement processing to handle main part 1 and milling cutter head 4, and can ensure that milling cutter head 4 is accurate in position after installation, and displacement does not occur in the milling process, guaranteeing processing accuracy, effectively preventing milling cutter head 4 from accidentally falling off due to vibration during high-speed milling, ensuring the safety of operating personnel and avoiding equipment damage or safety accidents caused by the falling of milling cutter head 4.

[0023] Specifically, the two sides of the elastic sheet 7 are each provided with a pull tab 10, and the surface of the pull tab 10 is uniformly provided with anti-slip lines. When replacing the milling cutter head 4 and pulling the elastic sheet 7, better friction force can be provided for the operator, making it easier to apply force and making the operation more comfortable and smooth, thereby improving the user's operation experience.

[0024] As shown in Figures 1 to 4 The protection mechanism 9 includes a protective cover 91, which is connected to the inside of the through slot 6. The surface of the protective cover 91 is provided with a clamping groove that is adapted to the pull tab 10. The pull tab 10 and the protective cover 91 are clamped through the clamping groove, preventing foreign matter from entering the through slot 6 and affecting the normal operation of the elastic sheet 7 and the knob 8, and preventing the milling cutter head 4 from loosening due to accidental touch of the knob 8 by the operator, thereby further improving the operation safety.

[0025] Furthermore, the two sides of the protective cover 91 are each provided with a damping strip 92, which is in close contact with the through slot 6, so that the protective cover 91 is tightly attached to the through slot 6.

[0026] As shown in Figures 1 to 4 The two elastic sheets 7 are symmetrically arranged on the two sides of the handle main part 1.

[0027] It is worth noting that the handle is installed on the side surface of the protective cover 91 away from the pull tab 10, so that the operator can conveniently pull the protective cover 91.

[0028] The structure of the tool shank body 1 is prior art and will not be described in detail; meanwhile, the utility model also includes a power supply, a controller, a switch and the like, which are not the main technical points of the patent and will not be described in detail. The wiring diagram of the motor is common knowledge in the art, and its working principle is a well-known technology. The model is selected according to actual use, so the control mode and wiring arrangement of the motor will not be explained in detail.

[0029] Working principle and process: when the milling cutter head 4 needs to be replaced, the pull tab 10 on both sides of the elastic sheet 7 is pulled by hand. Since the surface of the pull tab 10 has anti-skid lines, it is convenient for the user to apply force, and the elastic sheet 7 is deformed by pulling the pull tab 10. The knob 8 is pulled out of the insertion hole on the surface of the connecting rod 5, and then the threaded rod 3 is rotated in the opposite direction, so that it is gradually separated from the connecting head 2, and at the same time the connecting rod 5 is pulled out of the through hole of the tool shank body 1, and the old milling cutter head 4 is removed.

[0030] When the milling cutter is not used, the protective cover 91 is clamped into the through slot 6. The clamping groove on the surface of the protective cover 91 is clamped with the pull tab 10, which fixes the protective cover 91. The damping strips 92 on both sides of the protective cover 91 are in close contact with the through slot 6, which increases the friction between the protective cover 91 and the through slot 6, so that the protective cover 91 is not easy to fall off, and the milling cutter is protected, preventing the milling cutter head 4 and other components from being damaged.

[0031] When the milling cutter needs to be used again, the protective cover 91 is removed from the through slot 6 through the handle on the protective cover 91. First, the connecting rod 5 is inserted into the inside of the tool shank body 1, and then the threaded rod 3 is rotated to be threadedly connected with the connecting head 2, and at the same time one end of the connecting rod 5 is gradually inserted into the through hole formed on the surface of the tool shank body 1.

[0032] When the connecting rod 5 is completely inserted into the through hole of the tool shank body 1, the operator releases the elastic sheet 7, and the knob 8 is automatically inserted into the insertion hole formed on the surface of the connecting rod 5 under the elastic action of the elastic sheet 7, so as to fix the position of the connecting rod 5, and the installation of the milling cutter head 4 is completed.
