Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The invention provides a machine tool eliminating the need of keeping the removed feed-mechanism-protection cover outside the machine. The machine tool comprises a headstock provided with a main spindle for gripping a workpiece; a driving unit provided with a feed mechanism extended along a main spindle axis to move the headstock in a main spindle axial direction; a supporting bed provided with a guide bush in a removable manner; a first cover mounted on the headstock to protect a portion of the feed mechanism with respect to the main spindle axial direction; and a second cover removably mounted on the headstock on the front side of the first cover to protect another portion of the feed mechanism. The second cover is detachably attached to the first cover when removed from the headstock.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A machine tool comprising: a headstock provided with a main spindle for gripping a workpiece; a driving unit provided with a feed mechanism extended along a main spindle axis to move the headstock in a main spindle axial direction; a supporting bed provided with a guide bush in a removable manner, the guide bush slidably supporting the workpiece on the front side of the main spindle; a first cover mounted on the headstock to protect a portion of the feed mechanism with respect to the main spindle axial direction; and a second cover removably mounted on the headstock on the front side of the first cover to protect another portion of the feed mechanism, wherein the second cover is detachably attached to the first cover when removed from the headstock. 2. The machine tool of claim 1 , wherein the second cover removed from the headstock is attached to the first cover in a manner to cover the portion of the feed mechanism behind the first cover. 3. The machine tool of claim 1 , wherein a mounting structure of the second cover with respect to the headstock is used to attach the second cover to the first cover. 4. The machine tool of claim 2 , wherein a mounting structure of the second cover with respect to the headstock is used to attach the second cover to the first cover.
