Abstract: The present invention includes a table (2) for placing a workpiece (Wa) thereon, a supporting mechanism (10) including a rotary shaft (15, 16) and supporting the table (2) so as to be able to rock the table (2) about an axial center of the rotary shaft (15, 16), a first drive motor (20) rotating the rotary shaft (15) of the supporting mechanism (10) to rock the table (2), a balance imparting mechanism (30) imparting a balance load to the rotary shaft (15) in accordance with a position of rocking of the table (2), and a controller (50) controlling the first drive motor (20). The balance imparting mechanism (30) includes an eccentric disc (31) having a circular plate shape and connected at a position eccentric from a center thereof to the rotary shaft (15), a housing (32) holding an outer periphery of the eccentric disc (31) via a bearing (33), and a load imparting unit (35) imparting the balance load to the housing (32) in a direction intersecting an axis of the rotary shaft (15).

Abstract: A chip suction cover is used for a machine tool including: a spindle configured to rotate a tool; and a suction mechanism unit configured to suck chips of a workpiece that are produced in accordance with rotation of the tool. The chip suction cover includes: a hollow body that is provided with an opening through which a rotation central axis of the spindle extends and that is arranged so as to surround the tool; and a cover body that is provided in the hollow body so as to partially close the opening and that is configured to cover a part of a tip end portion of the tool while exposing a remaining part of the tip end portion of the tool. A chip suction cover having such a configuration that improves the efficiency of sucking chips produced due to workpiece machining is provided.
