[0017] In this technical solution, the universal ball 26 in the universal seat 25 can be inserted into the installation limit port 16 by extending and retracting the telescopic rod 23, thereby fixing the tool rod 19 in the bushing 20.

[0018] In some technical solutions, a support spring 24 is fitted on the outside of the telescopic rod 23 between the universal seat 25 and the fixed plate 22.

[0019] In this technical solution, the universal joint 25 can be supported by the cooperation of the telescopic rod 23 and the support spring 24.

[0020] In some technical solutions, the inner wall of the universal seat 25 is provided with rotating cavities 27 evenly spaced along its axis, and ball bearings 28 are installed inside the rotating cavities 27, which are fitted together with the universal ball 26.

[0021] In this technical solution, the ball bearing 28 can roll inside the rotating cavity 27 and roll in conjunction with the universal ball 26, thereby improving the rotation efficiency of the universal ball 26 within the universal seat 25.

[0022] In some technical solutions, a U-shaped seat 11 is installed at the top of the support seat 8, a glass carrier plate 14 is installed at the upper end of the U-shaped seat 11, and a glass suction cup 9 is installed at the upper end of the glass carrier plate 14.

[0023] In this technical solution, the U-shaped seat 11 can move at the upper end of the support seat 8, and the tempered glass can be adsorbed onto the glass carrier plate 14 by the glass suction cup 9.

[0024] In some technical solutions, slide rails 12 are installed on both sides of the top of the support seat 8, and sliders 13 are installed on both sides of the bottom of the glass carrier plate 14. The sliders 13 are installed in the slide rails 12, and electric push rods a10 are installed on the side walls of the support seat 8. The glass carrier plate 14 is connected to the drive end of the electric push rods a10.

[0025] In this technical solution, the glass carrier plate 14 is moved on the support seat 8 by the movement of the slider 13 on the slide rail 12, and the glass carrier plate 14 is moved between the two glass chamfering cutters 18.

[0026] In some technical solutions, an electric push rod b4 is installed on the side wall of the fixed base 3, the slide 5 is connected to the drive end of the electric push rod b4, a rotary motor 7 is installed on the side wall of the drive cylinder base 6, and the drive shaft 21 is connected to the drive end of the rotary motor 7.

[0027] In this technical solution, the two slide blocks 5 can be moved relative to each other or towards each other by the extension and retraction of the electric push rod b4, and the drive shaft 21 can be controlled to rotate at high speed by the rotary motor 7.

[0028] Working principle: The tempered glass to be beveled is placed on the glass carrier plate 14 at the top of the support seat 8. The glass suction cup 9 uses negative pressure to adsorb the glass, preventing displacement during processing. Then, the electric push rod a10 is started, driving the glass carrier plate 14 (connected to the glass carrier plate 14) to move along the slide rail 12 via the slider 13, conveying the glass to the processing position between the two glass beveling cutters 18. The electric push rod b4 runs, pushing the slide 5 to move along the fixed seat 3, so that the two drive cylinder seats 6 on both sides drive the glass beveling cutter 18 to approach the glass corner until the cutter and the glass to be processed are precisely aligned. The rotary motor 7 is started, driving the drive shaft 21 to rotate at high speed in the bearing seat 15 through the coupling. The drive shaft 21 drives the cutter rod 19 and the glass beveling cutter 18 to rotate synchronously through the bushing 20. During processing, if the glass tilts slightly or the resistance changes, the universal ball 26 of the limiting mechanism 17 rotates within the universal seat 25 (the ball bearing 28 reduces resistance), and the support spring 24 buffers the movement, ensuring that the tool fits the glass processing surface and completes the chamfering. After processing, the rotary motor 7 stops, the electric push rod b4 drives the slide 5 and the tool to reset, the electric push rod a10 moves the glass carrier plate 14 back to the initial position, the glass suction cup 9 releases pressure, and the processed tempered glass is removed, completing one processing cycle.
