[0037] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0038] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0039] In this utility model, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "top," and "bottom" are generally used in relation to the direction shown in the accompanying drawings, or in relation to the vertical, perpendicular, or gravitational direction of the component itself; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself, but the above directional terms are not used to limit this utility model. Example

[0040] See Figures 1-4As shown, a rearview mirror cutting platform includes a carrier plate 1 and a shelf 2. The shelf 2 has four upward-facing suction cups for placing the rearview mirror to be cut. A set of rotating brackets is fixedly installed below the shelf 2; rotating brackets 3 and 4 are used as examples here. The upper ends of rotating brackets 3 and 4 are securely connected to the bottom of the shelf 2, and their lower ends are fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 5, ensuring that rotating brackets 3 and 4 can move synchronously with the rotation of the rotating shaft 5.

[0041] Both ends of the rotating shaft 4 are fixedly mounted on the carrier plate 1 via bearing seats 61 and 62, respectively. This mounting method ensures the stability of the rotating shaft 4 during rotation and provides it with flexible rotation space. One end of the rotating shaft 4 is connected to the drive assembly via a coupling, which includes a servo motor 7 that is linked to the control system.

[0042] In actual operation, when the control system issues a command, the servo motor 7 starts and drives the rotating shaft 4 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft 4 causes the rotating brackets 3 and 4 to adjust their angles, thereby causing the platform 2 to deflect. Through this design, relying on the precise linkage between the servo motor 7 and the control system, the angle of the platform 2 can be dynamically adjusted. This dynamic adjustment function can well meet the angle change requirements during the cutting process of curved rearview mirrors, ensuring cutting accuracy and efficiency, and providing reliable equipment support for the rearview mirror cutting process.

[0043] In this embodiment, the drive assembly consists of a servo motor 7 and a reducer 8. The servo motor 7 has precise speed and torque control capabilities, and its output shaft is stably connected to the input shaft of the reducer 8. The reducer 8 can reduce the speed and increase the output torque. The output shaft of the reducer 8 is then connected to the rotating shaft 4 via a coupling. In this way, the power of the servo motor 7, after being transmitted through the reducer 8, can stably drive the rotating shaft 4 to rotate.

[0044] To enhance the structural stability of the rotating support 3, a reinforcing plate 9 is provided on one side. The upper end of the reinforcing plate 9 is firmly fixed to the bottom of the platform 2. In this way, the reinforcing plate 9 can share part of the stress borne by the rotating support 3, effectively preventing the rotating support 3 from deforming due to uneven force during the deflection of the platform 2, thereby ensuring the reliability and durability of the entire platform structure.

[0045] A pair of inductive switches for limiting the deflection angle of the rotating bracket 4 are disposed between one side of the rotating bracket 4 and the carrier plate 1. The inductive switches consist of two photoelectric sensors 11 and two photoelectric baffles 10, with each photoelectric baffle 10 corresponding to one photoelectric sensor 11. Specifically, the photoelectric baffles 10 are mounted at both ends of the rotating bracket 4, and move accordingly when the rotating bracket 4 deflects. The two photoelectric sensors 11 are fixed to the carrier plate 1 by the bracket. When the photoelectric baffles 10 move to a specific position, blocking or leaving the detection area of ​​the photoelectric sensor 11, the photoelectric sensor 11 will emit a signal, thereby limiting the deflection angle of the rotating bracket 4.

[0046] In addition, the carrier plate 1 is provided with a hollow groove, which is located directly below the rotating brackets 3 and 4. The hollow groove design can reduce the weight of the carrier plate 1, and at the same time facilitate the installation, debugging and maintenance of the rotating brackets 3 and 4 and related components.

[0047] Combination Figure 4 As shown, a boss 51 is provided in the middle of the rotating shaft 5, and a first stop 52 and a second stop 53 are formed on both sides of the boss 51.

[0048] On the rotating shaft 5 on one side of the first retaining edge 52, a first mounting platform 54 is sequentially distributed. This mounting platform is specifically designed for the installation of the rotating bracket 3, ensuring that the rotating bracket 3 can be stably assembled. On one side of the first mounting platform 54 is a first bearing housing mounting platform 55, used to install the bearing housing 61. During installation, one side of the rotating bracket 3 abuts against the first retaining edge 52, and then the bearing housing 61 is used to achieve precise positioning, ensuring that the rotating bracket 3 is installed in an accurate and stable position.

[0049] A second mounting platform 56 is sequentially provided on the rotating shaft 5 on one side of the second stop 53 for mounting the rotating bracket 4. One side of the second mounting platform 56 has a threaded structure 57 for mounting a lock nut. The other side of the threaded structure 57 is a second bearing housing mounting platform 58 for mounting the bearing housing 62. During installation, one side of the rotating bracket 4 abuts against the second stop 53, and the lock nut further limits the position, ensuring that the rotating bracket 4 is securely installed.

[0050] Combination Figure 4As shown, the rotating shaft 5 has a boss 51 in the middle, and a first flange 52 and a second flange 53 are formed on both sides of the boss 51. On the rotating shaft 5 located on the first flange 52, there is a first mounting platform 54 for mounting the rotating bracket 3. On one side of the first mounting platform 54, there is a first bearing seat mounting platform 55 for mounting the bearing seat 61, so that one side of the rotating bracket 3 abuts against the first flange 52 and is limited by the bearing seat 61. On the rotating shaft 5 located on the second flange 53, there is a second mounting platform 56 for mounting the rotating bracket 4. On one side of the second mounting platform 56, there is a threaded structure 57 for mounting the lock nut; on the side of the threaded structure 57, there is a second bearing seat mounting platform 58 for mounting the bearing seat 62, so that one side of the rotating bracket 4 abuts against the second flange 53 and is limited by the lock nut.

[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, the carrier plate 1 and the slide plate 13 are securely fixed together by a connecting plate 12. The connecting plate 12 can be connected by welding, bolts, or other methods to ensure a tight connection between the carrier plate 1 and the slide plate 13, preventing loosening during movement. The slide plate 13 is slidably mounted on the linear guide rail 14 of the machine tool 100 using a slider. This sliding engagement allows the slide plate 13 to move smoothly along the linear guide rail 14. A linear motor is installed on the machine tool 100 and is connected to the control system. Under the command of the control system, the linear motor can drive the slide plate 13 to move precisely along the linear guide rail 14, thereby moving the carrier plate 1.

[0052] The rearview mirror cutting platform provided by this utility model uses a linear motor to drive the slide plate 13, which in turn drives the carrier plate 1 and the entire platform structure to slide smoothly on the linear slide rail 14, achieving precise position adjustment; the angle adjustment of the rotating brackets 3 and 4 is achieved by driving the rotating shaft 5 to rotate; and the angle of the platform 2 can be dynamically adjusted by relying on the linkage between the servo motor 7 and the control system, so as to meet the cutting requirements of the arc-shaped rearview mirror.
