[0026] This embodiment provides a quick-change cutting tool, including:

[0027] Handle 1 is set in pairs.

[0028] The fixing plate 2 is set in pairs. The fixing plate 2 is adapted and fixedly installed to the inner side of the handle 1. The fixing plate 2 is locked and connected by screws 3 passing through the handle 1. The fixing plates 2 form a receiving space. The upper end of both the fixing plate 2 and the handle 1 is provided with an arc-shaped clearance groove 20.

[0029] Functional plate 4 is fixed between the fixed plates 2, and spring piece 40 is formed on the functional plate 4.

[0030] Locking element 5 is rotatably connected between the fixed plates 2, and the bottom of the locking element 5 abuts against the top of the spring piece 40.

[0031] The blade 6 has a positioning groove 60. A positioning pin 7 is fixed on one end of the handle 1 and the fixing plate 2. The blade 6 is rotated between the blade 6 and the fixing plate 2 through the positioning groove 60 and the positioning pin 7. A positioning mechanism is provided between the functional plate 4 and the blade 6. A fixing mechanism is provided between the locking member 5 and the blade 6. Pressing one end of the locking member 5 and inserting the blade 6 between the fixing plates 2 will cause the positioning groove 60 and the positioning pin 7 to engage in place under the guidance of the positioning mechanism. Releasing the locking member 5 will cause the fixing mechanism to lock the blade 6 and the locking member 5 in place.

[0032] In this embodiment, specifically, the positioning mechanism consists of a positioning protrusion 61 formed below the positioning groove 60 and a positioning groove 41 formed at one end of the functional plate 4. When the blade 6 is inserted between the fixing plates 2, the positioning pin 7 engages with the positioning groove 60, and the positioning protrusion 61 engages with the positioning groove 41. With the cooperation of the positioning mechanism, the blade 6 and the locking piece 5 are aligned accurately and fully extended.

[0033] In this embodiment, more specifically, the fixing mechanism is a buckle groove 62 formed on the upper side of the positioning groove 60 and a buckle 50 formed on one end of the locking member 5. The buckle 50 and the buckle groove 62 are fastened together. When the other end of the locking member 5 away from the buckle 50 is pressed, the buckle 50 is lifted and the fixed state between it and the buckle groove 62 is released. At this time, the blade 6 can be rotated, folded or disassembled. When the blade 6 is fully unfolded, the buckle 50 and the buckle groove 62 are fastened to fix the blade 6 and prevent rotation problems during use.

[0034] In this embodiment, the spring piece 40 is an arc-shaped extension structure that contacts the lower end face of the lock piece 5. Therefore, when the lock piece 5 is pressed, the arc-shaped contour makes the rotation process of the lock piece 5 more stable, and after the lock piece 5 is released, it can be smoothly reset.

[0035] In this embodiment, more specifically, the locking member 5 is bent into a pressing part 51 at the exposed clearance groove 20, which can increase the pressing area and improve the pressing feel.

[0036] In addition, in this embodiment, the positioning groove 60 is a U-shaped groove. The opening of the positioning groove 60 is aligned with the positioning pin 7 so that the blade 6 can be directly inserted between the fixing plates 2. The blade 6 is then locked by the fixing mechanism, allowing for quick installation or replacement of the blade 6.
