[0024] This embodiment is a monitoring device for detecting abnormal operation of a cutting tool.

[0025] As Figures 1-4 shown, it includes a cutting tool 1 and a fixed block 2. The fixed block 2 is located on the outer surface of the upper end of the cutting tool 1. Limit holes 8 are opened on the left and right sides of the outer surface of the upper end of the cutting tool 1. First threaded holes 7 are opened on the upper parts of the outer surfaces on both sides of the cutting tool 1. Anti-loosening components 6 are installed on the left and right sides of the outer surface of the upper end of the fixed block 2. The anti-loosening component 6 includes a slide hole 10, a movable shaft 11, a limit block 12, a protective cover 13 and a disc spring 14. Mounting blocks 3 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the outer surface of the lower end of the fixed block 2. Second threaded holes 9 are opened on the upper and lower sides of the outer surface of one side of the mounting block 3. A fixing bolt 4 is provided between the mounting block 3 and the cutting tool 1. A pressure sensor 5 is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer surface of the upper end of the fixed block 2.

[0026] The fixing bolt 4 is threadedly connected between the second threaded hole 9 and the first threaded hole 7; the outer wall of the lower part of the movable shaft 11 is inserted into the limit hole 8; the number of anti-loosening components 6 is two groups. The slide hole 10 is opened in the middle of the left and right ends of the outer surface of the upper end of the fixed block 2. The movable shaft 11 penetrates through the movable shaft 11. The protective cover 13 is located above the slide hole 10. The lower outer surface of the protective cover 13 is fixedly connected to the upper outer surface of the fixed block 2. Both the limit block 12 and the disc spring 14 are located inside the protective cover 13; the upper outer surface of the movable shaft 11 is fixedly connected to the middle of the lower outer surface of the limit block 12. The disc spring 14 is fixedly installed between the upper outer surface of the limit block 12 and the top of the inner cavity of the protective cover 13; the outer wall of the movable shaft 11 is slidably connected to the slide hole 10, the outer wall of the limit block 12 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the protective cover 13, and the upper outer surface of the limit block 12 is elastically connected to the upper part of the inner cavity of the protective cover 13 through the disc spring 14.

[0027] It should be noted that the present utility model is a monitoring device for detecting abnormal operation of a cutting tool.
