[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Please see Figures 1 to 4This utility model provides a technical solution: a protective shell for a lathe, comprising a protective shell 1 disposed on the lathe and a protective shell cover 2 mounted on the protective shell 1. The protective shell cover 2 consists of an extension block 21, a cover body 22, and an observation window 23. The observation window 23 is located in the middle of the cover body 22, and the extension block 21 is mounted on one side of the cover body 22. The connection between the extension block 21 and one side of the cover body 22 is a pivot connection. Through the design of the protective shell cover 2, the engaging assembly 20, and the limiting mechanism, the original method of installing the protective shell cover 2 and the protective shell 1 by bolting through them is improved. This method requires the use of a screwdriver to operate multiple bolts one by one during the assembly and disassembly process, which is cumbersome. By adopting a different method for connecting the protective shell cover 2 and the protective shell 1... The installation is achieved using a snap-fit ​​limiting method, eliminating the need for tools during installation and ensuring stability after installation while maintaining ease of operation. A snap-fit ​​assembly 20 is provided at the bottom of the extension block 21 where it engages with the protective housing 1. The snap-fit ​​assembly 20 consists of a snap-fit ​​block 201, a silicone seat 202, and a slot 203. The slot 203 is located inside the protective housing 1. The snap-fit ​​block 201 is fixed to the bottom of the extension block 21 and engages with the inside of the slot 203. The silicone seat 202 is located at the connection between the snap-fit ​​block 201 and the slot 203, with its outer surface fixed to the inner wall of the slot 203. The snap-fit ​​assembly 20 secures the top portion of the protective housing 2 to the protective housing 1. The outer surface of the silicone seat 202... The cover 22 is fixed to the inner wall of the slot 203. A limiting mechanism is provided at the connection between the bottom end of the cover 22 and the protective shell 1. The limiting mechanism consists of a spring 221, a groove 222, a limiting groove 223, a limiting block 224, and a limiting component 225. The limiting mechanism enables the bottom end of the protective shell 2 to be fixedly installed with the protective shell 1. The groove 222 is opened on the surface of the protective shell 1, the limiting groove 223 is opened on the inner side of the cover 22, the limiting block 224 is set on the inner side of the groove 222 and the inner side of the limiting groove 223, the spring 221 is set at one end of the limiting block 224 and located inside the groove 222, and the limiting component 225 is set at the other end of the limiting block 224. The limiting component 225 consists of a through groove 2251, a limiting plate 2252, and a rotating... The enclosure consists of a rotating block 2253 and a rotating groove 2254. The rotating groove 2254 is located at the other end of the limiting block 224. The through groove 2251 is located on the surface of the cover 22. The rotating block 2253 is located inside the through groove 2251 and inside the rotating groove 2254. The limiting component 225 locks the engaging limiting groove 223 and the limiting block 224 together, thus achieving a reinforcement effect. The limiting plate 2252 is located on the outside of the cover 22. The inner side of the limiting plate 2252 is fixed to the end of the rotating block 2253. The length of the limiting plate 2252 is the same as the length of the through groove 2251. The rotating block 2253 is a cylindrical structure. During the rotation of the limiting plate 2252, the rotating block 2253 at the bottom end rotates inside the rotating groove 2254.

[0021] In this embodiment, preferably, a protective film is attached to the inner side of the observation window 23. When dust or impurities adhere to the inner surface of the observation window 23, the protective film can be replaced, increasing the ease of cleaning.

[0022] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: When the lathe is working, the protective shell is installed on the lathe to ensure personnel safety, improve machining accuracy, prevent pollution and damage, and improve the working environment. When it is necessary to disassemble the protective shell cover 2, the limiting mechanism at the connection between the protective shell cover 2 and the protective shell 1 is operated first. By first rotating the longitudinally positioned limiting plate 2252, the longitudinal limiting plate 2252 is made to be in a transverse position, so that the limiting plate 2252 is aligned with the through groove 2251. Then the limiting plate is... Pressing plate 2252 causes the limiting plate 2252 to pass through the through groove 2251 and press against the limiting block 224, causing the limiting block 224 to separate from the limiting groove 223 and be stored inside the groove 222, causing the bottom part of the protective shell cover 2 to separate from the protective shell 1. Then, through the pivot connection between the cover 22 and the extension block 21, the cover 22 is lifted upward and flipped. Then, the cover 22 is pulled outward, causing the locking block 201 fixed on the extension block 21 to separate from the locking groove 203, completing the disassembly operation of the protective shell cover 2.

[0023] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
