(Prior art) As a conventional device of this type, according to Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 57-126950, a ferromagnetic material such as iron is attached to a machine tool base equipped with a machining head that can move forward and backward on the workpiece side. It is known that a magnetic proximity switch is provided which cooperates with a dog consisting of a magnetic head, and the movement of the machining head to a machining start position, a machining completion position, etc. is detected based on a signal from the proximity switch.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Magnetic proximity switches react not only to ferromagnetic materials such as iron, but also to positive magnetic materials such as aluminum and reverse magnetic materials such as copper. The detectable distance, that is, the detection distance is, for example, 5 mm for iron.
In the case of aluminum, it is about 2 mm.

Therefore, even if the workpiece is made of aluminum, if chips from the workpiece adhere to the detection end of the proximity switch, the switch will output the same signal as when the dog of the machining head comes close to it, and the accuracy of the machining head will be increased. position detection becomes impossible.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a machine tool base equipped with a machining head that can move forward and backward on the workpiece side, and a dog made of a ferromagnetic material attached to the machining head. In a device equipped with a magnetic type proximity switch that cooperates with a workpiece, the detection end of the proximity switch is covered with a cover made of a material that is thicker than the detection distance of the proximity switch with respect to the workpiece material and does not react to the proximity switch. It is characterized by

(Function) According to the present invention, even if chips are scattered toward the proximity switch when processing a workpiece that is not a ferromagnetic material such as aluminum, the cover attached to the detection end of the switch prevents the chips from being directed to the detection end. This prevents the switch from coming within the detection distance, thus preventing the switch from malfunctioning due to chips.

(Example) An example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The drawings show an embodiment in which the device of the present invention is applied to an exchangeable head machine tool, and with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4,
Reference numeral 1 denotes a machine tool base, and 2 a work setting jig in front of the machine tool. A plurality of heads 5 are arranged so that any one of them can be selected at a position in front of the unit 4, and the selected machining head 5 is coupled to it by advancing the unit 4 as shown in the third figure. The jig 2 was moved forward, and a predetermined process was performed on the workpiece w, which was made of an aluminum engine block and the like, placed on the jig 2.

Then, in order to detect the machining start position, feed rate, and machining completion position of the machining head 5, each machining head 5
Ferromagnetic iron dogs 7 are arranged in three stages (upper and lower) on the side surface of the machine via a dog brate 6, and a support plate 8, which is erected on the front end side of the machine base 1, is provided with a magnetic field that cooperates with each of these dogs 7. The type proximity switches 9 are arranged in three stages (upper and lower), that is, the detection end 9a of each proximity switch 9 is placed outside the forward and backward locus of each dog 7 as shown in FIG. The machining head 5 is placed at a distance of less than 5 mm, for example, about 4 mm.
When each dog 7 moves forward to the position where each proximity switch 9 is placed, each proximity switch 9 detects this and is activated.

Here, at the detection end 9a of each proximity switch 9,
According to the characteristics of the present invention, a cover 10 having a wall thickness t, for example, about 2.5 mm, which is thicker than the detection distance (about 2 mm) of the switch 9 with respect to the work material, for example, aluminum, is attached. The material of the switch 9 is made of a non-magnetic material such as a synthetic resin that does not react with the switch 9. Accordingly, even if chips are scattered to the switch 9 side and adhere to the cover 10, the switch 9 will not react. There is no possibility that the detection will be activated in response to this chip.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, according to the present invention, malfunction of the proximity switch due to chips from the workpiece is prevented, and accurate position detection is achieved through cooperation between the dog attached to the machining head and the switch. This structure is advantageous in terms of cost since it is sufficient to simply cover the detection end of the switch.
