[0031] The utility model effectively avoids the lack of the existing tool changing auxiliary device air supply device, in the tool changing operation process, there is the problem of air quality, influence operator's safety and health, there is the problem of hidden danger. The utility model discloses the air supply device constantly sends fresh air into the operation space, effectively improves the air quality in the operation space, provides safe, healthy working environment for operator, improves the efficiency and quality of tool changing operation. In addition, the air blower 3 is arranged on the ground, and convenient to install, debug and maintain.
[0032] As an optional implementation, the casing device 1 is formed by welding a plurality of steel casings from top to bottom.
[0033] Further, the height of each steel casing is 3m, the inner diameter is 2m, and the wall thickness is 0.03m.
[0034] In this way, the specifications and the number of the steel casings can be flexibly adjusted according to actual use requirements for assembly, while the overall strength and stability of the casing device 1 are ensured.
[0035] As an optional implementation, the tool changing operation structure 6 is arranged on the lowermost steel casing, and an installation opening 102 adapted to the tool changing operation structure 6 is arranged on the lowermost steel casing. The tool changing operation structure 6 is a hollow semicylindrical structure, and an openable operation window 601 is arranged on the arc surface of the tool changing operation structure 6. The tool changing operation structure 6 is rotatably connected to the casing device 1 through a connecting frame. A transparent window 602 is arranged on the operation window 601.
