[0024] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0025] See Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0026] A rotary tool magazine for a machining center includes a mounting base 1, a rotary drive 2, a loading tray 3, a locking ring 4, tool holders 5, and a protective cover 6. The rotary drive 2 is mounted on the mounting base 1. The loading tray 3 is fixedly mounted on the output section of the rotary drive 2 via the locking ring 4. One end of the tool holder 5 is fixedly mounted on the loading tray 3, and the other end of the tool holder 5 has a tool groove 7 located on the outside of the loading tray 3. Both the loading tray 3 and the tool holder 5 are housed within the protective cover 6, which is fixedly mounted on the mounting base 1. The protective cover 6 has a tool extraction port 8. At least two tool holders 5 are evenly distributed on the loading tray 3. The mounting base 1 is used to fix the tool magazine on the mounting bracket. The rotary drive 2 is a servo motor, which can precisely control the rotation angle of the loading plate 3. The loading plate 3 is used to install the tool holder 5, which is used to hold the cutting tools. The locking ring 4 is used to fix the loading plate 3. The cutting tools are placed on the tool holder 5 with the drill bit on the cutting tool facing upward. In order to prevent the drill bit from being damaged, a protective cover 6 is set to protect the cutting tools on the loading plate 3.

[0027] In some embodiments, the rotary drive 2 is fixedly connected to the reducer 9, which is fixedly mounted on the mounting base 1. The input shaft of the reducer 9 is connected to the output end of the rotary drive 2, and the loading disk 3 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the reducer 9 via a locking ring 4. The reducer 9 is a conventional speed reducer that reduces the rotational speed of the rotary drive 2 before transmitting the speed to the loading disk 3. The housing of the servo motor is fixed to the housing of the reducer 9, and the housing of the reducer is fixed to the connecting bracket 10. The output shaft of the servo motor is connected to the input shaft of the reducer, and the output shaft of the reducer is coaxially and fixedly connected to the loading disk 3.

[0028] In some embodiments, an inclined connecting frame 10 is fixedly provided on the mounting base 1, and the reducer 9 is fixedly provided on the upper end of the connecting frame 10. The connecting frame 10 is provided with a rotating hole 11 that mates with the output shaft of the reducer 9. The connecting frame 10 is used to install the reducer 9. In order to facilitate the installation of the reducer 9 and make the overall structure more compact, the connecting frame 10 is inclined.

[0029] In some embodiments, the protective cover 6 is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the support base 12, and the lower end of the support base 12 is fixed to the mounting base 1. The support base 12 is provided to fix the protective cover 6, allowing the protective cover 6 to better fit with the loading tray 3.

[0030] In some embodiments, a bearing seat 13 is coaxially arranged on the loading tray 3, and a bearing 14 is arranged on the bearing seat 13. A support rod 15 is arranged inside the bearing 14, and the upper end of the support rod 15 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the protective cover 6. Two bearings 14 are coaxially arranged inside the bearing seat 13, and the lower end of the support rod 15 is arranged in both bearings 14. The support seat 12 fixes the protective cover 6 from one side, but the protective cover 6 is still unstable. Therefore, the support rod 15 is arranged to fix the protective cover 6 from the middle. The loading tray 3 can rotate, but the support rod 15 cannot rotate. Therefore, a bearing seat 13 is arranged on the loading tray 3, and two bearings 14 of the prior art are arranged inside the bearing seat 13. The lower end of the support rod 15 is a stepped shaft and is inserted into the bearing 14.

[0031] In some embodiments, a connecting disk 16 is coaxially disposed on the loading disk 3, a bearing seat 13 is fixedly disposed on the connecting disk 16, and a locking ring 4 is disposed inside the connecting disk 16. The connecting disk 16 has a groove for the locking ring 4 to engage. The connecting disk 16 is fixed to the loading disk 3, the bearing seat 13 is fixed to the connecting disk 16, and the bearing seat 13, the loading disk 3, the connecting disk 16, and the support rod 15 are coaxially disposed.

[0032] In some embodiments, a clamping spring 17 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the tool groove 7. A limiting boss 18 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the tool groove 7. The clamping spring 17 can clamp the tool to prevent the tool from falling out of the tool groove 7, and the limiting boss 18 also prevents the tool from falling out of the tool groove 7.
