[0018] The controller body 203 is fixedly connected to the front of the sealed door 202.

A fixing ring 7 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the temperature sensor 215. The outer surface of the fixing ring 7 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the tool magazine cabinet 201. The fixing ring 7 can fix the temperature sensor 215 and prevent the temperature sensor 215 from falling off during use, which would affect the accuracy of the temperature sensor 215 measurement. Example

[0019] Please see Figure 1-7 The bottom of the dehumidifier 205 is fixedly connected to a guide pipe 206. A protective ring 6 is fitted on the outer surface of the guide pipe 206. The bottom end of the protective ring 6 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the tool magazine main cabinet 201. The protective ring 6 can protect the outer surface of the guide pipe 206 and prevent wear and breakage when the guide pipe 206 comes into contact with the tool magazine main cabinet 201, thereby affecting the performance of the guide pipe 206.

[0020] The outer surface of the guide pipe 206 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the tool magazine main cabinet 201. Two trapezoidal blocks 5 are fixedly connected to the upper surface and the bottom surface of the dehumidifier 205. The outer surface of each trapezoidal block 5 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the tool magazine main cabinet 201. The trapezoidal blocks 5 can fix the dehumidifier 205 and prevent the dehumidifier 205 from shaking during use.

[0021] A thermoelectric cooler 207 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the main cabinet 201 of the tool magazine. A cooling block 216 is fixedly connected to the left side of the thermoelectric cooler 207, and a heat sink 208 is fixedly connected to the right side of the thermoelectric cooler 207. A cooling fan 209 is fixedly connected to the right side of the heat sink 208. A fixing frame 3 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the controller body 203. The back of the fixing frame 3 is fixedly connected to the front of the sealing door 202. An electric heating wire 214 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the storage rack 210. The inner surface of the storage rack 210... The tool magazine cabinet 201 is equipped with three sliding storage boxes: a first storage box 211, a second storage box 212, and a third storage box 213. The controller body 203 is electrically connected via wires to a semiconductor cooling chip 207, a cooling fan 209, a dehumidifier 205, a circulating fan 204, a humidity sensor 217, and a temperature sensor 215 through the inner cavity of the cabinet. The controller body 203 is secured by a fixing frame 3 to prevent shaking during use and thus maintain control. The stability of the main body 203 is ensured by the controller's composition, which includes both hardware and software. The hardware primarily consists of a central processing unit (CPU) for computation, input / output (I / O) interfaces for connecting sensors and actuators, a memory for storing programs and data, and power and communication modules. The software encompasses control algorithm programs, a real-time operating system (RTOS), and a human-machine interface, all working together to ensure precise and efficient system control. Widely used in industrial automation, smart homes, and automotive electronics, the controller is a core device that regulates system operation by processing input signals in real time and generating control commands. Its working principle can be summarized as follows: First, it acquires signals from sensors or external inputs, such as temperature and speed, and compares them with preset target values ​​to calculate the deviation. Then, it uses built-in algorithms such as PID control and logical judgment to analyze the deviation and generate adjustment commands. Finally, it drives actuators such as motors and valves through the output interface to adjust the system state, while continuously monitoring the effect through closed-loop feedback to achieve dynamic stability. The controller enables control of the electrical components in this technical solution. Example

[0022] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, first connect the controller body 203, semiconductor cooling chip 207, cooling fan 209, dehumidifier 205, circulating fan 204, humidity sensor 217, and temperature sensor 215 to the power supply. Then, the operator places different models of the same material of knives, according to their model or function, into the slots above the storage rack 210, inside the first storage box 211, inside the second storage box 212, and inside the third storage box 213. The operator then seals the knife magazine main cabinet 201 using the movable relationship between the sealing door 202 and the main cabinet 201. Finally, the operator controls the controller body 203 to operate. Humidity sensor 217 and temperature sensor 215 detect the temperature and humidity inside the tool magazine cabinet 201, respectively. The data signals detected by the humidity sensor 217 and temperature sensor 215 are transmitted to the controller body 203. This transmitted data signal is automatically compared with the appropriate temperature and humidity settings for storing the tool set within the controller body 203. When the temperature is too high or too low, the controller body 203 automatically controls the thermoelectric cooler 207 to operate. The thermoelectric cooler 207 utilizes the Peltier effect of semiconductor materials; when direct current passes through a thermocouple formed by two different semiconductor materials connected in series, heat is absorbed and released at the two ends of the thermocouple, achieving the purpose of cooling. It is a type of... The cooling technology that generates negative thermal resistance is characterized by the absence of moving parts and high reliability. The left side of the thermoelectric cooler 207 absorbs heat, while the right side releases heat. Guided by the cooling block 216, heat is absorbed within the tool magazine cabinet 201 and, through the action of the thermoelectric cooler 207, the temperature inside the cabinet is lowered. The right side of the thermoelectric cooler 207 dissipates the absorbed heat, and the temperature inside the cabinet is rapidly reduced through the heat conduction of the heat sink 208 and the cooling structure of the cooling fan 209. When the temperature of the tool magazine cabinet 201 is low, the controller 203 activates the electric heating. The heating element 214 operates to heat the surfaces of the storage rack 210, the first storage box 211, the second storage box 212, and the third storage box 213. Simultaneously, the controller 203 controls the circulating fan 204 to circulate the heated temperature of the storage rack 210, promoting more even heating inside the tool magazine cabinet 201 and on the tool surfaces. The controller 203 also controls the humidity sensor 217 to measure the humidity inside the tool magazine cabinet 201. When the humidity in the tool magazine cabinet 201 is high, the controller 203 activates the dehumidifier 205.The dehumidifier 205 removes moisture from the main cabinet 201 of the tool magazine through the drain pipe 206, effectively preventing corrosion or damage to the tools due to excessive humidity, thus avoiding any impact on their performance. This device not only allows for precise measurement and control of the temperature and humidity of the tool storage environment but also enables accurate tool sorting, thereby improving the device's effectiveness and work efficiency.

[0023] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
