A fixed plate 9 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the connecting plate 8. A tensioning frame 10 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the fixed plate 9. An adjustment mechanism is provided on the bottom surface of the limiting rail 5. The adjustment mechanism consists of a gear rail 11, a drive shaft 12, and a gear 13. The gear rail 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the limiting slide rail 5. The drive shaft 12 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed frame 6. The inner wall of the gear 13 is fixedly connected to the surface of the drive shaft 12, and the gear 13 meshes with the gear rail 11. This is used to drive the embroidery machine body 7 to move longitudinally, facilitating the adjustment of the longitudinal embroidery position. The fixed frame 6 has a drive assembly on its front side, which consists of a first servo motor 14, a worm 15, and a worm wheel 16. The first servo motor 14 is fixedly connected to the front side of the fixed frame 6. The worm 15 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first servo motor 14. The inner wall of the worm wheel 16 is fixedly connected to the surface of the drive shaft 12, and the inner wall of the worm wheel 16 meshes with the worm 15. This is used to drive the adjustment mechanism to rotate, facilitating the adjustment and transmission work. A cutting mechanism is provided on the right side of the fixed frame 6, and a moving assembly is provided on the bottom surface of the base plate 1.
[0022] Specifically, the cutting mechanism consists of a fixed base 17, a laser cutter 18, and a positioning camera 19.

It is used to cut the fabric with a laser and facilitates the cutting and positioning work.
[0023] Specifically, the moving component consists of a second servo motor 20, a threaded rod 21, a limiting ring 22, and a connecting frame 23. The second servo motor 20 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the base plate 1, the threaded rod 21 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second servo motor 20, the limiting ring 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the base plate 1, and the inner wall of the limiting ring 22 is rotatably connected to the threaded rod 21. The connecting frame 23 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove 3, and the inner wall of the connecting frame 23 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 21. The connecting frame 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the connecting plate 8.

[0024] All electrical components mentioned in this article are connected to an external main controller and 220V AC mains power, and the main controller can be a conventional known device such as a computer that can control it.
[0025] In use: First, fix the embroidery fabric onto the frame 10. Start the embroidery machine body 7 and drive the needles to embroider the fabric. Start the second servo motor 20 to drive the threaded rod 21 to rotate along the inner wall of the limiting ring 22. The threaded rod 21 is connected to the connecting frame 23 by threads, driving the connecting plate 8 to move laterally along the top surface of the base plate 1. The movement of the connecting plate 8 drives the fixing plate 9, the frame 10, and the fabric to move laterally to adjust the lateral embroidery position. At the same time, start the first servo motor 14 to drive the worm gear 15 to rotate. Through the meshing of the worm gear 15 and the worm wheel 16, the worm gear 15 drives the worm gear 15 to rotate. The drive shaft 12 and gear 13 rotate along the inner wall of the fixed frame 6. Through the meshing of gear 13 and gear rail 11, the fixed frame 6 and the embroidery machine body 7 are driven to slide longitudinally along the inner wall of the limit slide rail 5, thereby adjusting the longitudinal embroidery position. After the embroidery is completed, the positioning camera 19 is turned on to locate and detect the cutting position, and the laser cutting machine 18 is started to generate a high-power laser beam. The beam is transmitted to the laser head through the reflection mirror, and after focusing, a high-temperature point is formed to cut the fabric. The cutting position of the laser cutting machine 18 can be adjusted by the longitudinal movement of the fixed frame 6 in conjunction with the lateral movement of the fabric.
[0026] In summary, this embroidery machine with auxiliary cutting fixes the fabric onto the frame 10, starts the embroidery machine body 7 to embroider the fabric, activates the moving component to drive the fabric to move laterally through the connecting plate 8, the fixing plate 9, and the frame 10 to adjust the embroidery position, activates the driving component to drive the fixing frame 6 and the embroidery machine body 7 to move longitudinally through the adjusting mechanism to adjust the embroidery position, and activates the cutting mechanism to perform moving cutting work on the fabric by coordinating the longitudinal movement of the fixing frame 6 with the lateral movement of the fabric. This achieves the goal of facilitating automatic cutting of the fabric after embroidery is completed, avoiding the problem that existing embroidery machines do not have cutting functions, which leads to a more cumbersome embroidery process and a significant reduction in embroidery production efficiency. This addresses the problems mentioned in the background art.
