Abstract
A machine tool includes a bed, an electric-discharge machining unit that is mounted on the bed and constitutes a machine main body, a frame that has a mounting surface and is fixed to a side surface of the bed, machining fluid tanks that are used when the electric-discharge machining unit is operated to performs a machining work, and are set to the first state where these tanks are above the frame and separated from the mounting surface so as to be self-supported, or to the second state where these tanks are mounted on the mounting surface, and a transport fixing tool that is removed when the machining fluid tanks are set to the first state, and is attached when the machine main body and the machining fluid tanks are set to the second state.
Claims4
An electric-discharge machining device comprising:
- a bed;
- an electric-discharge machining unit that is mounted on the bed and constitutes a machine main body with the bed;
- a frame that has a mounting surface and is fixed to a side surface of the bed;
- machining fluid tanks that are used when the electric-discharge machining unit performs a machining work, and are set to the first state where these tanks are above the frame and physically separated from the frame so as to be self-supported at their positions or to the second state where these tanks are mounted on the mounting surface;
- a fixing member that is attachable and fixes the machining fluid tanks mounted on the mounting surface of the frame to the frame, wherein
- when the electric-discharge machining unit is operated, the machining fluid tanks are set to the first state by removing the fixing member, and
- when the machine main body and the machining fluid tanks are moved, the machining fluid tanks are set to the second state by attaching the fixing member.
