Abstract
Provided are an arm, a tool magazine, and a machine tool capable of suppressing interference between tool storage arms and suppressing an increase in size in the direction parallel to an axis of rotation. The arm is provided in the tool magazine of the machine tool and configured to grip a tool. The arm includes a support plate configured to be fixed to the tool magazine and two support rods configured to rotate on both sides of the support plate. The positions of the tool grip side end portions of the two support rods are different in the rotation center axis direction of the tool magazine.

An arm provided in a tool magazine of a machine tool and configured to grip a tool, the arm comprising:
- a support plate configured to be fixed to the tool magazine;
- and
- two support rods configured to rotate on both sides of the support plate,
- wherein positions of tool grip side end portions of the two support rods are different in a rotation center axis direction which is a direction of an axis of a rotation center of the tool magazine.
An arm configured to grip a tool, the arm comprising:
- a support plate configured to be fixed to a tool magazine of a machine tool, the support plate having an arc shape portion at one end of the support plate in a first direction;
- a first support rod rotatably disposed on one side of the support plate in a second direction, the first support rod having a first part, the first part having a first surface facing one direction of a third direction, the second direction being orthogonal to the first direction, and the third direction being orthogonal to the first direction, second direction, and the support plate;
- a second support rod rotatably disposed on the other side of the support plate in the second direction, the second support rod having a second part, the second part having a second surface facing the other direction of the third direction, the one end of the support plate being positioned between the first part of the first support rod and the second part of the second support rod in the second direction, and the second surface of the second part being positioned away from the first surface of the first part in the one direction of the third direction.
