Abstract
This machine tool is provided with: a partition that partitions a machining chamber and a tool storage chamber and that has an opening; a shutter; and a receiving member that is formed so as to receive cutting fluid. The partition includes a sidewall member that extends in the vertical direction and an inclined wall member inclined in such a manner so as to become lower from the sidewall member to the interior of the machining chamber. At least part of the opening is formed in the inclined wall member. The receiving member is positioned beneath the shutter, and in such a position so as to receive cutting fluid that drops down along the sidewall member when the shutter is opened.
Claims5
A machine tool comprising:
- a machining chamber for machining a workpiece;
- a tool storage chamber for storing a plurality of tools;
- a partition wall that separates the machining chamber and the tool storage chamber, the partition wall having an opening through which the plurality of tools are taken out from the tool storage chamber;
- a shutter that has a shape that corresponds to the opening, and when the shutter is disposed in a first position the shutter covers the opening such that the opening is closed, and when the shutter is disposed in a second position the opening is exposed;
- and
- a receiving member having an inner surface that is U-shaped in cross section so as to receive a cutting fluid, wherein
- the partition wall includes a side wall member extending in a vertical direction and an inclined wall member that is inclined so as to decrease in height from the side wall member toward inside of the machining chamber,
- at least a part of the opening is formed in the inclined wall member, and
- the receiving member is fixed on the side wall member so as to be adjacent to the opening under the shutter and is disposed so as to receive the cutting fluid falling along the side wall member when the shutter is opened.
