  • Patent number: 10814425
    Abstract: An improved laser-machining head unit for fabric comprising a diagonal mirror assembly with a tubular sleeve extending downward to an internally threaded distal tip. An annular adapter is provided with an externally-threaded male fining at one end and an internally-threaded receptacle at an opposing end. The externally-threaded male fitting of the adapter is adjustably screw-threaded into the internally threaded distal tip of the tubular sleeve. A laser nozzle has a frusto-conical tip and an annular collar Cm attachment to the adapter, the collar being externally threaded and fixedly screw-inserted into the internally-threaded receptacle of the adapter. In addition, there is a gas inlet affixed to the collar of the laser nozzle for introducing gas at a 90-degree angle thereto. The screw-adjustable configuration ensures proper alignment at all times of the lens, the beam and the nozzle aperture, and air stream.
