Reflective Mirror Bracket Adjusment Screw Damage / Daniel - Ing Henry

INTRODUCTION

 

The Reflective Mirror Bracket allows the adjustable part of the reflective mirror, aided by a mechanical system that includes 3 screws with millimeter thread, which can enter and exit depending on the need to adjust the angle of reflection, and locate it at the exact point, two adjustment screws with spring included to give the stability of the adjustable part. The calibration process includes movement of the screw to locate them at midpoints, and offer a freely controlled entry and exit movement to locate the exact calibration point.


DEVELOPMENT

 ADJUSTMENT SCREW MILLIMETRIC THREAD DAMAGE.


•       The number 2 millimetric thread screw is too tight, therefore it does not give the bracket space to be adjustable

•        Screw number 3 is in the middle position

•        The number 1 screw has worn the bracket thread because the number 2 screw is not adjustable and the spring screws are too tight





SOLUTION

•      Once the faulty threads are found, the complete part must be changed

•      Perform the calibration again

CONCLUSIONS

  1. Proper calibration management extends the life of all your peripherals
  2. Do not insert the screws to their maximum limit
  3. Excessive screw force causes aluminum thread to break down
  4. The mid-position location of all screws facilitates calibration and avoids possible damage to the threads of the bracket (aluminum)
