[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0027] The following is combined Figure 1 - Figure 5 This invention describes an adjustable electroplating rack.

[0028] In one embodiment, an adjustable electroplating rack includes: a support rod 1 and a bracket 2 disposed on its surface, wherein a plurality of hooks 3 are arranged in a circular array on the surface of the bracket 2;

[0029] Debugging component 4 is set in bracket 2 and can assist personnel in adjusting the position of hook 3;

[0030] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the debugging component 4 includes a gear ring 401 disposed in the bracket 2, and a locking plate 406 disposed on the surface of the gear ring 401; the debugging component 4 also includes a groove formed on the surface of the bracket 2 and auxiliary grooves disposed on the upper and lower parts of the groove, the end of the hook 3 is located in the groove, and the gear ring 401 is located in the auxiliary groove; a first spring 402 is disposed inside the groove, one end of the first spring 402 near the hook 3 abuts against the inner wall of the groove, and the other end is fixedly connected to an abutment plate, the surface of the abutment plate is fixedly connected to the end of the hook 3, and the end of the hook 3 is located in the spring; an auxiliary rod is disposed on the side of the movable plate 403 near the bracket 2 and located at the auxiliary groove, one end of the auxiliary rod passes through the auxiliary groove and is fixedly connected to a housing 404, and the locking plate 406 is located in the housing 404;

[0031] When personnel need to adjust the position of hook 3 to fit workpieces of different specifications, first pull hook 3 outward. At this time, the abutment plate is pulled by the end of hook 3 and squeezed by the first spring 402. The first spring 402 will retract. At the same time as hook 3 is pulled outward, the movable plate 403 on its surface will pull the housing 404 outward through the auxiliary rod. At this time, the locking plate 406 in the housing 404 disengages from the toothed ring 401, causing the two sets of tooth grooves to move away from each other. At this time, hook 3 will lose its restriction, and personnel can then adjust the position of hook 3.

[0032] It should be noted that the above-mentioned bracket 2 is a circular design. When encountering workpieces of different specifications, personnel need to measure the range required for the workpiece to be hung in advance, and calculate the number of workpieces that can be hung based on the path of bracket 2 and the range occupied by the workpiece, and ensure that the spacing between each hook 3 is consistent, so that workpieces of different specifications can be hung and electroplated.

[0033] When the hook is moved to a certain position, the person releases the hook 3. The first spring 402 causes the abutment plate to rebound. At this time, the hook 3 will cause the movable plate 403 to re-adhere to the surface of the bracket 2. At the same time, the housing 404 will also cause the locking plate 406 to move closer to the toothed ring 401. At this time, the two sets of toothed grooves will engage with each other, and the position of the hook 3 can be re-locked.

[0034] The debugging component 4 also includes a movable plate 403 sleeved on the surface of the hook 3. A reinforcing sleeve is fixedly connected to the middle of the movable plate 403, and the reinforcing sleeve slides horizontally in the opening of the groove.

[0035] The reinforcing sleeve is made of stainless steel, and its diameter is equal to the opening height of the groove. Therefore, the surface of the reinforcing sleeve is in close contact with the opening of the groove. Once the position of the hook 3 is determined, the reinforcing sleeve can provide strength support for the horizontal rod part of the hook 3, effectively ensuring that the hook 3 will not be damaged due to the quality of the workpiece.

[0036] The housing 404 has a sliding groove inside, and the locking plate 406 is located in the sliding groove of the housing 404. A vertical plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 404, and a second spring 405 is fixedly connected to both sides of the vertical plate. A compensation groove is provided on the side of the locking plate 406 near the housing 404, and the opposite ends of the two second springs 405 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the compensation groove. The toothed ring 401 and the locking plate 406 are provided with toothed grooves on opposite sides, and the two sets of toothed grooves cooperate with each other. The length of the locking plate 406 is less than the length of the sliding groove of the housing 404.

[0037] When the housing 404 moves the locking plate 406 closer to the gear ring 401, since both sets of teeth are provided with inclined surfaces, when the two sets of tooth grooves come into contact, the inclined surfaces press against each other, causing the locking plate 406 to be pulled slightly to the position by the first spring 402, which can achieve the effect of the locking plate 406 and the tooth groove of the gear ring 401 matching each other.

[0038] When personnel need to electroplat the workpiece, a connecting end is provided at the upper end of the support rod 1. The connecting end is connected to an electric hoist or a cantilever crane. Then, the suspension point of the workpiece is hung around the support 2 with the hook 3. The electroplating rack and the workpiece are then slowly placed into the electroplating tank using the above-mentioned lifting device, and the surface electroplating operation of the workpiece can begin.

[0039] It should be noted that the gear ring 401, the first spring 402, the movable plate 403, the housing 404, the second spring 405, and the locking plate 406 in the above-mentioned debugging component 4 are all made of 316L stainless steel, which has a certain resistance to electroplating solution corrosion. The fixed connection parts are all fixed by riveting, which can avoid local heating due to contact resistance. The movable parts are all coated with epoxy resin for insulation treatment, which can prevent current from bypassing and affecting the uniformity of current distribution.

[0040] Working principle: When the operator needs to adjust the position of hook 3 to fit workpieces of different specifications, first pull hook 3 outward. At this time, the first spring 402 will retract, and the housing 404 will also be pulled by the auxiliary rod and drive the locking plate 406 to disengage from the toothed ring 401, causing the two sets of toothed grooves to move away from each other. At this time, the operator can move the position of hook 3. When it is moved to a certain position, the operator releases hook 3. The first spring 402 drives the abutment plate to rebound. At this time, hook 3 will drive the movable plate 403 to re-fit against the surface of bracket 2. At the same time, the housing 404 will also drive the locking plate 406 to move closer to the toothed ring 401. At this time, the two sets of toothed grooves will engage with each other, and the position of hook 3 can be locked.

[0041] It should be noted that the electric hoists and cantilever cranes mentioned above are all devices with relatively mature existing technologies. The specific models can be selected according to actual needs. At the same time, the electric hoists and cantilever cranes can be powered by built-in power supplies or by mains power. The specific power supply method should be selected according to the situation, which will not be elaborated here.

[0042] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
