The cutting head body 2 is located at the top of the protection tube 1. A water flow groove 3 is opened between the protection tube 1 and the inner cavity 101. A water injection port 4 is opened at the top of the protection tube 1. The water injection port 4 is connected to the top of the water flow groove 3 in a penetrating manner.

[0023] In use, after the cutting head body 2 is used up, the protective tube 1 is penetrated through the nozzle, and the protective tube 1 is rotated. The inner cavity is threadedly connected to the threaded groove outside the nozzle 201, so that the protective tube 1 is fixed on the nozzle of the cutting head body 2. There is a water flow groove 3 between the protective tube 1 and the inner cavity 101. The staff uses a syringe to inject water into the water flow groove 3, and uses a rubber plug 5 to block the water injection port 4. The staff threadedly connects the protective tube 1 to the nozzle 201 of the cutting head body 2. The nozzle 201 is inserted into the support pad 102.
