Combined with the intelligent design of the drive component and the reset component, the automatic control and remote monitoring of the liquid replenishment process are realized, which significantly improves the intelligence level and management efficiency of the electroplating production line. The reset component is connected with the mounting part 2 to ensure that the transmission part 3 and the sealing part 4 can be quickly and accurately reset in the non-working state to prevent leakage of the plating liquid.
[0027] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, as a preferred solution, the reset component includes a fixing member 6 arranged on the transmission member 3, the fixing member 6 is installed coaxially with the mounting member 2, a coil spring 7 is arranged inside the fixing member 6, and the other end of the coil spring 7 is arranged on the mounting member 2; the reset component is provided with a fixing member 6 on the transmission member 3 and is installed coaxially with the mounting member 2, so that the coil spring 7 can make full use of its elastic potential energy to drive the transmission member 3 and the sealing member 4 to reset quickly and accurately in a non-working state.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, as a preferred solution, its working process is as follows:
[0035] When the electroplating pool needs to be replenished, the drive motor 15 is turned on, and the power of the drive motor 15 is transmitted to the drive member 8 through the meshing transmission of the third gear 16 and the fourth gear 17. When the drive member 8 rotates, multiple groups of stirring members 18 arranged at equal distances work synchronously to stir the electroplating liquid in the liquid storage tank at multiple points and evenly, effectively preventing the precipitation of components and ensuring the uniform distribution of the electroplating liquid.

During the reset process, the barrier member 5 limits the rotation range of the seal 4, and the shock-absorbing pad plays a buffering role when the barrier member 5 contacts the seal 4.
