Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the apparatus for detecting the breakage of a tool which is simply constituted and has high sensitivity and is hardly influenced by noise, etc., by amplifying the output of an AE sensor when a tool is broken, and by installing a comparator which transmits an output when the above-described amplified output exceeds a standard voltage level. CONSTITUTION:When a tool-breakage detecting apparatus is installed onto a drilling machine and operated, an AE signal is generated by a work 1 and a twist drill 2 because of the friction and the cutting chip on cutting, but said AE signal is hardly converted to an electric signal because of the frequency characteristic of an AE sensor 3 itself. Therefore, the indication of an AE signal display device 9 is of low level, but since when a tool is broken, the frequency of the AE signal accords with the frequency characteristic of the AE sensor 3, the AE signal is converted to an electric signal by the AE sensor 3, and input into a comparator 6 through an amplifier 4. Therefore, the influence of the AE signal due to friction can be reduced by comparing the level of the AE signal with a threshold level by the comparator 6, and the breakage of the tool can be displayed on a breakage display device 7.

By the way, the AE used in the conventional tool breakage detection device
The sensor can, for example, vary from IKHz to IM as shown in FIG.
An AE sensor that detects a broadband AE multiplied signal on the order of Hz is used. In order to obtain such a wideband frequency characteristic, the amplification degree of the sen signal itself is low and a weak AE multiplied signal cannot be obtained, and the output of the AE sen signal must be amplified. However, the AE multiplied signal obtained when a tool breaks has a peak at about 200 KHz, and the AE multiplied signal obtained from friction and other causes is obtained from the AE sensor in order to identify the AE multiplied signal obtained when a tool breaks. The problem is that it is necessary to separate the broken signal from the generated output through a band-pass filter and compare the levels with a comparator, resulting in a complicated structure.

However, due to the frequency characteristics of the AE sensor 3 itself, it is hardly converted into an electrical signal. Therefore, the display on the AE signal display 9 remains at a low level. However, when the tool breaks, the AE multiplied signal frequency matches the frequency characteristics of the AE sensor signal 3, so it is converted into an electrical signal by the AE sensor 3 and provided to the comparator 6 via the amplifier 4.
