Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of workpiece processing, and in particular to a hanging mechanism, a workpiece processing device and a workpiece processing system. Background Art

[0002] In the fields of cleaning, electroplating, and coating, different containers are used to hold different liquids to form the required process flow to complete the cleaning, electroplating, and coating processes on the workpiece. For example, in the electroplating process, barrel plating and rack plating are two types of plating methods. Barrel plating involves placing the workpiece in a barrel, which rotates in the plating solution to electroplate the surface of the workpiece inside. Rack plating involves suspending the workpiece from a hanging mechanism and immersing it in the plating solution to complete the plating process.

[0003] The existing hanging mechanism mainly includes a hook fixed to a base frame and a hanger that can be hung on the hook. The hanger includes a support rod and a hanger frame. The top of the hanger frame is fixed to the support rod, and the top of the support rod is hung on the hook. The hanger frame includes two vertically arranged and horizontally spaced fixed rods, multiple horizontally spaced connecting rods connecting the two fixed rods horizontally, and multiple rows of hanging rods arranged horizontally on both sides of the connecting rods and vertically spaced, with the hanging rods in each row arranged at intervals. The outer end of the hanging rod away from the connecting rod is fixed with a hook. When the workpiece needs to be hang-plated, the workpiece is directly hung on the hook and suspended in the plating tank.

[0004] To perform barrel plating on workpieces, the aforementioned rack requires the barrel to be rotatably mounted on a suspension rod of a hanger. However, since one end of the suspension rod is suspended in the air and only one end is fixed to the connecting rod, it is difficult to securely secure the barrel to the hanger using only the suspension rod. Consequently, existing racks are currently used only for rack plating workpieces and cannot switch between barrel and rack plating on the hanger. This necessitates the installation of two separate electroplating equipment sets, one for barrel plating and the other for rack plating. This results in high manufacturing costs and a large footprint for the electroplating equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0050] The technical solution of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0051] 1. The present invention provides a hanging mechanism comprising a hanger and a hanger. The hanger is mounted on a frame and has at least one horizontally extending hanging position. The hanger comprises a base, a first fixing seat, a second fixing seat, and a crossbeam. The first and second fixing seats are respectively disposed on either side of the base. The crossbeam spans between the first and second fixing seats and is adapted to be hung on the hanging position. The base, the first and second fixing seats, and the crossbeam form a secure mounting frame, defining a mounting cavity within the frame.

[0052] The mounting frame of the hanging mechanism of this structure is firmly connected and fixed, and can firmly fix the rack plating mechanism and the barrel plating barrel therein. The switching between barrel plating and rack plating can be conveniently realized on the same hanging mechanism, and there is no need to set up two sets of electroplating equipment to perform barrel plating and rack plating on the workpiece respectively, which saves the manufacturing cost of the electroplating equipment and the space occupied by the electroplating equipment; the hanger and the hanger are split structures, and when either of them fails, they are convenient for disassembly and maintenance.

[0053] 2. The suspension mechanism provided by the present invention features a clamping assembly that, when activated, can switch between a clamped state, pressed against the top surface of the beam, and a free state, free from the beam's top surface. The clamping assembly presses the beam into place, preventing the beam and the hanger from swaying or becoming unstable when subjected to external forces, which could affect the electroplating effect. Furthermore, the clamping assembly's pressure on the beam ensures close contact between the first and second conductive electrode components, maintaining good electrical conductivity.

[0054] 3. In the suspension mechanism provided by the present invention, the conductive devices, including the first conductive electrode, the first conductive head, and the positive conductive component, are all mounted on the suspension device. This facilitates disassembly of the suspension device for repair in the event of a malfunction. The first, second, third, fourth, and fifth insulating components isolate the different electrodes to prevent short circuits. They also isolate live components from other non-live components, preventing them from becoming charged and ensuring operator safety.

[0055] 4. The workpiece processing device provided by the present invention includes a hanging mechanism. The mounting frame of the hanging mechanism of this workpiece processing device is securely connected and fixed, securely securing both the rack plating mechanism and the barrel plating barrel. This allows for convenient switching between barrel and rack plating on the same workpiece processing device, eliminating the need for separate electroplating equipment for barrel and rack plating, saving manufacturing costs and space.

[0056] 5. The workpiece processing device provided herein comprises a first conductive shaft and a first conductive disk mounted on the first fixed seat, respectively, and an open roller, the roller belt of which is wound around the first conductive disk. A first conductive electrode component is connected to the first conductive head via a cathode cable and a second conductive electrode plate. The first conductive electrode plate is bent downward at both ends and connected to the first conductive shaft to provide anions into the barrel plating chamber. The first conductive disk is mounted on the first conductive shaft to increase the current receiving area and ensure a more even distribution of anions within the barrel plating chamber.

[0057] 6. The workpiece processing device provided by the present invention is provided with a second conductive shaft between the first fixed seat and the second fixed seat, and the plating mechanism is arranged on the second conductive shaft and located between the first fixed seat and the second fixed seat. Each hanging rod has a hook for hanging the workpiece; a plurality of hanging rods are parallel and are arranged on the second conductive disk, and both ends pass through the outside of their respective corresponding first driving components; the transition components are fixed on the two ends of the hanging rods in a one-to-one correspondence, and surround the outer periphery of their respective corresponding second driving components and rotate by the rotation of the second driving components. The first driving component, the second driving component and the transition component are all gears. The first driver drives the first driving component to rotate, driving the entire plating mechanism to rotate. The second driver drives the second driving component to rotate. The rotation of the second driving component drives the transition component to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the hanging rods on each transition component to rotate. Under the action of the overall revolution of the plating mechanism and the rotation of the hanging rod 905, the workpiece is electroplated more evenly and the electroplating efficiency is high.

[0058] 7. The workpiece processing system provided by the present invention comprises at least one container, at least one hanging mechanism, and a plurality of sealing components. A sealing channel is provided on at least one wall of the container; a plurality of sealing components are spaced apart within the sealing channel; the sealing components are adapted to be provided on either end of the corresponding workpiece or hanging mechanism or to be wound around its outer peripheral wall; any one of the sealing components and the container is driven by a driving mechanism to pass through any sealing channel, and any sealing component is adapted to pass through any sealing channel in a sealed manner, thereby driving the workpiece or hanging mechanism provided on the corresponding sealing component to pass through the sealing channel; in the moving direction of the sealing component or the container, the distance between any two adjacent sealing components is L1i, the length of any sealing channel is L0i, and L1i and L0i satisfy the following relationship: L0min≥L1max, wherein L1max is the maximum value among all L1i, L0min is the minimum value among all L0i, and i is a natural number greater than or equal to 1.

[0059] In the workpiece processing device of this structure, when processing the workpiece, the workpiece is placed on the sealing component; when several sealing components continuously move in the container and enter the sealed channel, since the above-mentioned relationship is satisfied between L1i and L0i, there is at least one sealing component in each sealed channel that slides sealingly in the sealed channel, or the inlet end face and the outlet end of the sealed channel are respectively sealed by a sealing component, so that the inner cavity of the sealed channel is sealed and separated from the inner cavity of the container where the sealed channel is located, blocking the solution in the container from continuously entering the sealed channel. Only a small amount of solution exists in the gap between two adjacent sealing components and is carried out of the sealed channel, so that the liquid level height of the solution in the container is reduced by a small amplitude, and then the workpiece can be continuously driven to move by moving the sealing component in one direction, so that the workpiece is transferred out of one container and into the next container while the liquid level height is reduced very little, and the workpiece is continuously processed in different processes, simplifying the workpiece processing process and facilitating subsequent batch processing of workpieces.

Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0082] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0083] Example 1

[0084] This embodiment provides a hanging mechanism, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes a sling and a hanger 4.

[0085] Among them, the hanger is arranged on the frame and has at least one horizontally extending hanging position 1011; the hanger 4 includes a base 401, a first fixed seat 402, a second fixed seat 403 and a crossbeam 404, the first fixed seat 402 and the second fixed seat 403 are respectively arranged on both sides of the base 401, and the crossbeam 404 spans between the first fixed seat 402 and the second fixed seat 403, and the crossbeam 404 is suitable for hanging on the hanging position 1011. A firm installation frame is formed between the base 401, the first fixed seat 402, the second fixed seat 403 and the crossbeam 404, and an installation cavity is formed therein.

[0086] The mounting frame of the hanging mechanism of this structure is firmly connected and fixed, and can firmly fix both the rack plating mechanism and the barrel plating barrel therein. The switching between barrel plating and rack plating can be conveniently realized on the same hanging mechanism, and there is no need to set up two sets of electroplating equipment separately to perform barrel plating and rack plating on the workpiece respectively, thereby saving the manufacturing cost of the electroplating equipment and saving the space occupied by the electroplating equipment.

[0087] Specifically, the hanger comprises a hanging component 101 and a fixing component 102. A groove is defined within the sidewall of the hanging component 101. The groove's two sides, below the groove, are bent upward to form a barrier. The hanger 4 is attached to the hanging position 1011 via a crossbeam 404. The barrier prevents the hanger 4 from sliding out from the front of the hanging position 1011. The groove has notches at both ends along its length; the lower wall of the groove forms the hanging position 1011. The crossbeam 404 is embedded within the groove, with its two ends extending out of the groove through corresponding notches.

[0088] There are two fixed components 102, which are arranged vertically and spaced apart on the hanging component 101. Each fixed component 102 is provided with two rollers 201 arranged opposite each other along a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the fixed component. The fixed component 102 is provided with a rotating shaft, and the rollers 201 are rotatably mounted on the rotating shaft. A slideway is formed between the two rollers 201, and the guide body on the base frame is suitable for being embedded in the slideway. For example, the guide body is a first guide rail 202. The hanging mechanism is set on the first guide rail 202 of the base frame through the fixed component 102 and can slide relative to the first guide rail 202.

[0089] like Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the hanging mechanism further includes three sets of pressing assemblies. Two sets of pressing assemblies are located on both sides of the hanging member 101. Each set of pressing assemblies includes a pressing member 301. Two vertical plates are fixed to the upper plate of the hanging member 101. A horizontal shaft is passed through and fixed to the two vertical plates. The pressing member 301 is mounted on the horizontal shaft in an upside-down manner. The pressing member 301 is located above the crossbeam 404. The pressing member 301 is in a pressed state by being flipped downward and pressed against the upper surface of the crossbeam 404. The pressing member 301 is in a free state by being flipped upward and separated from the upper surface of the crossbeam 404.

[0090] Another set of clamping components is located between the two clamping components 301 and includes a drive handle 302 and an eccentric component 303. The drive handle 302 is rotatably mounted on the hanging component 101. The eccentric component 303 is cylindrical and fixedly mounted on the drive handle 302. Turning the drive handle 302 downward causes the eccentric component 303 to rotate downward, pressing the eccentric component 303 against the upper surface of the beam 404 and entering a compressed state. Turning the handle upward causes the eccentric component 303 to rotate upward and away from the upper surface of the beam 404, entering a free state. The three sets of clamping components clamp the beam 404 against the hanging position 1011, preventing the beam 404 and the hanger 4 from shaking up and down when subjected to external forces, causing instability and affecting the electroplating effect.

[0091] like Figure 3As shown, the hanging mechanism also includes a first conductive electrode component 501 and two first conductive heads 502. For example, the first conductive electrode component 501 is a conductive copper plate, and the first conductive head 502 is a cathode conductive head. Each fixed component 102 is provided with a horizontal plate, and a guide column extending vertically downward is provided on the horizontal plate. A first spring is sleeved on the guide column, and the first conductive head 502 is vertically fixed below the guide column. During operation, the cathode conductive head is suitable for abutting against the conductive copper sheet on the bottom plate of the L-shaped guide rail 203 of the base frame to draw electricity from the L-shaped guide rail 203. The first conductive electrode component 501 is located below the crossbeam 404 and above the hanging position 1011; the two ends of the first conductive electrode component 501 are bent downward and electrically connected to the power receiving component provided in the mounting cavity of the hanger 4.

[0092] like Figure 4 As shown, two cathode cables 503 are connected at one end to the cathode conductive head and at the other end to two second conductive plates. The two second conductive plates are arranged in parallel and spaced apart and abut the bottom of the first conductive electrode component. The cathode cables 503 draw electricity from the cathode conductive head, then transmit it to the two second conductive plates. From the second conductive plates, it is transmitted to the first conductive electrode component, and then through the first conductive electrode component to the power receiving component. For example, the second conductive electrode component 504 is a conductive copper plate. The three sets of clamping assemblies pressed against the crossbeam 404 can ensure close contact between the first conductive electrode component and the second conductive plates, maintaining good electrical conductivity.

[0093] The hanging mechanism also includes a first insulating component 601 and a second insulating component 602. The first insulating component 601 is located between the bottom of the first conductive electrode component 501 and the top of the hanging position 1011. The crossbeam 404 is in an inverted U shape. The second insulating component 602 is embedded in the groove of the crossbeam 404 and is located between the top of the first conductive electrode component 501 and the top of the crossbeam 404. The bottom of the second insulating component 602 is provided with an inverted U-shaped groove, and the first conductive electrode component 501 is embedded in the inverted U-shaped groove at the bottom of the second insulating component 602.

[0094] Specifically, the hanging mechanism also includes a positive conductive head 701 and a negative conductive head 702. The connecting plate is vertically fixed on Figure 3 On the fixed component 102 on the middle left, the positive conductive head 701 and the negative conductive head 702 are fixed horizontally and vertically at intervals on the connecting plate, and a second spring is sleeved on the positive conductive head 701 and the negative conductive head 702. A collector sleeve is sleeved and fixed at the front end of the positive conductive head 701 and the negative conductive head 702, and the second spring abuts against the collector sleeve.

[0095] During operation, the positive and negative conductive heads 701 and 702 abut against the conductive copper sheets on the side panels of the L-shaped guide rail 203 of the base frame to draw electricity from the L-shaped guide rail 203. The first spring acts as a buffer for the cathode conductive head, ensuring that it abuts the conductive copper sheet on the bottom panel of the L-shaped guide rail 203 smoothly, ensuring smooth power draw. The second spring also acts as a buffer for the positive and negative conductive heads 701 and 702, ensuring that they abut against the conductive copper sheets on the side panels of the L-shaped guide rail 203 smoothly, ensuring smooth power draw.

[0096] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the suspension mechanism further includes a positive conductive component 703 and a negative conductive component 704. A first insulating component 601 is positioned above the positive and negative conductive components 703 and 704 and below the first conductive component 501. A third insulating component 603 is positioned below the positive and negative conductive components 703 and 704 and above the suspension position 1011. First and second through-holes are spaced apart between the facing surfaces of the first and third insulating components 601 and 603, and the positive and negative conductive components 703 and 704 are respectively disposed within the first and second through-holes.

[0097] One end of the positive conductive component 703 is connected to the positive conductive head 701 via a positive cable, and one end of the negative conductive component 704 is connected to the negative conductive head 702 via a negative cable. The other ends of the positive conductive component 703 and the negative conductive component 704 extend into the mounting cavity to connect to the electrical components and provide power. For example, the positive conductive component 703 and the negative conductive component 704 are both conductive copper plates.

[0098] A fourth insulating component 604 is provided below the second conductive electrode component 504 and above the suspension point 1011. The first conductive electrode component 501 and the second insulating component 602 are fixed to the crossbeam 404 via several screws. A fifth insulating component 605 is provided through the crossbeam 404, and the screws are inserted into the fifth insulating component 605. The arrangement of the first insulating component 601, the second insulating component 602, the third insulating component 603, the fourth insulating component 604, and the fifth insulating component 605 isolates the different electrodes to prevent short circuits. It also isolates the live components from other non-live components, preventing them from becoming charged and ensuring operator safety. For example, the first conductive electrode component 501, the second conductive electrode component 504, the positive conductive component 703, and the negative conductive component 704 are all plate-shaped.

[0099] Preferably, the hanging mechanism further includes a mounting plate, which is disposed between the first fixing seat 402 and the second fixing seat 403 and below the crossbeam 404, for mounting electrical components, such as a motor. A mounting cavity is formed between the first fixing seat 402, the second fixing seat 403, the mounting plate, and the base 401.

[0100] As a first alternative embodiment of Example 1, the number of clamping assemblies can be set to one, two, four, five, etc. The clamping assemblies can be pressed against the upper surface of the crossbeam 404 to ensure close contact between the first conductive electrode 501 and the second conductive electrode 504, and prevent the hanger 4 from shaking. Each set of clamping assemblies can be a clamping component 301 or a combination of a driving handle 302 and an eccentric component 303.

[0101] As a second alternative implementation of Example 1, the hanging position 1011 can also be a groove recessed on the top surface of the hanging component 101, and the hanging component 101 extends outward from the fixing component 102 to form an extension portion, and a groove is opened on the upper portion of the extension portion. At this time, the bottom of the groove forms the hanging position 1011.

[0102] As a third alternative implementation of Example 1, the number of fixing components 102 can also be one, three, four, five, etc., and different fixing components 102 can be set according to the load of the sling. When the load is large, multiple fixing components 102 are set on the frame to increase the load-bearing capacity of the sling; when the load is small, only one or two fixing components 102 can be set.

[0103] Example 2

[0104] This embodiment provides a workpiece processing device, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes the hanging mechanism of Example 1. The mounting frame of the hanging mechanism of the workpiece processing device with this structure is firmly connected and fixed, and can firmly fix both the rack plating mechanism and the barrel plating barrel therein. The switching between barrel plating and rack plating can be conveniently realized on the same workpiece processing device, and there is no need to set up two sets of electroplating equipment to perform barrel plating and rack plating on the workpiece respectively, which saves the manufacturing cost of the electroplating equipment and saves the space occupied by the electroplating equipment.

[0105] Specifically, the workpiece processing device also includes two first conductive shafts 801, two first conductive disks 802, and an open roller 80. The two first conductive shafts 801 are mounted on the first fixed seat 402 and the second fixed seat 403, respectively, and the first conductive disks 802 are sleeved onto the first conductive shafts 801. The open roller 80 is rotatably mounted on the first fixed seat 402 and the second fixed seat 403. The roller belt 803 of the open roller 80 is wound around the first conductive disks 802. The inner cavity between the first conductive disks 802 and the roller belt 803 forms a barrel plating chamber for placing the workpiece. The first conductive electrode component 501 is connected to the first conductive head 502 via a cathode cable 503 and a second conductive electrode component 504. The ends of the first conductive electrode component 501 are bent downward to connect to the first conductive shafts 801, providing anions into the barrel plating chamber. The sleeved first conductive disks 802 on the first conductive shafts 801 increase the current receiving area and ensure a more even distribution of anions within the barrel plating chamber.

[0106] As a first alternative embodiment of Example 2, the open roller 80 can be omitted from the first and second mounting bases 402 and 403. Instead, a rack plating mechanism 90 can be installed within the mounting cavity of the rack 4 to perform the rack plating process. A second conductive shaft 901 is provided between the first and second mounting bases 402 and 403, and the rack plating mechanism 90 is disposed on the second conductive shaft 901 and positioned between the first and second mounting bases.

[0107] The first conductive electrode component 501 is connected to the first conductive head 502 through the cathode cable 503 and the second conductive electrode component 504. Both ends of the first conductive electrode component 501 are bent downward and connected to the second conductive shaft 901 of the rack plating mechanism to provide anions for rack plating.

[0108] Specifically, if Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the rack plating mechanism 90 includes a second conductive plate 902 , a first driving component 903 , a second driving component 904 , a plurality of hanging rods 905 and a plurality of transition components 906 .

[0109] The second conductive disk 902 is sleeved onto the second conductive shaft 901. Two first drive components 903 are rotatably mounted on either end of the second conductive shaft 901 and are driven to rotate by a first driver, such as a motor. Second drive components 904 are fixed to either end of the second conductive shaft 901 and are driven to rotate by a second driver, such as a motor. The second drive components 904 are located outside their respective first drive components 903. The second driver is, for example, a motor.

[0110] Each hanging rod 905 has a hook for hanging a workpiece; several hanging rods 905 are parallel and pass through the second conductive plate 902, and both ends pass through the outside of their respective corresponding first driving components 903; the transition components 906 are fixed one by one on the two ends of the hanging rods 905, and surround the outer periphery of their respective corresponding second driving components 904 and rotate with the rotation of the second driving components 904.

[0111] The first drive component 903, the second drive component 904 and the transition component 906 are all gears. The first driver drives the first drive component 903 to rotate, driving the entire plating mechanism 90 to rotate. The second driver drives the second drive component 904 to rotate. The rotation of the second drive component 904 drives the transition component 906 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the hanging rod 905 on each transition component 906 to rotate. Under the action of the overall revolution of the plating mechanism 90 and the rotation of the hanging rod 905, the workpiece is electroplated more evenly and the electroplating efficiency is high.

[0112] Example 3

[0115] In the workpiece processing device of this structure, when processing the workpiece, the workpiece is placed on the sealing component; when several sealing components continuously move in the container and enter the sealed channel, since the above-mentioned relationship is satisfied between L1i and L0i, there is at least one sealing component in each sealed channel that slides sealingly in the sealed channel, or the inlet end face and the outlet end of the sealed channel are respectively sealed by a sealing component, so that the inner cavity of the sealed channel is sealed and separated from the inner cavity of the container where the sealed channel is located, blocking the solution in the container from continuously entering the sealed channel. Only a small amount of solution exists in the gap between two adjacent sealing components and is carried out of the sealed channel, so that the liquid level height of the solution in the container is reduced by a small amplitude, and then the workpiece can be continuously driven to move by moving the sealing component in one direction, so that the workpiece is transferred out of one container and into the next container while the liquid level height is reduced very little, and the workpiece is continuously processed in different processes, simplifying the workpiece processing process and facilitating subsequent batch processing of workpieces.

[0116] Specifically, the sealing component 2 is mounted on both ends of the workpiece accommodated in the mounting cavity by being mounted on the front end and the rear end of the first fixing seat and the second fixing seat of the hanger 4 respectively.

[0117] For example, there are three containers 1. Of course, there can be other quantities of containers 1, such as two, four, five, six, seven or more. The specific quantity is selected according to actual needs. Now, three containers 1 are taken as an example for explanation.

The four sealing channels 3 of the three containers 1 are flush and connected in the height direction. The rear end wall of the first container 1 at the starting end and the front end wall of the third container 1 at the end may not be provided with a sealing channel 3. The top of each container 1 has an open mouth or a cover plate, and a sealing channel 3 is provided on the cover plate. Figure 8 An extension channel extends from the rear to the front of the container, and each extension channel is connected to the sealing channel 3 on the container 1 where it is located.

[0119] There are several sealing components 2, for example, there are 2n sealing components 2, there are n workpieces to be processed, every two sealing components 2 are respectively arranged on both ends of a workpiece, and the n workpieces are arranged in sequence along the horizontal direction.

[0120] All sealing components 2 are driven by the driving mechanism to move horizontally from the rear container 1 toward the front container 1 and are suitable for sealingly passing through any sealing channel 3, so as to drive the corresponding workpiece to be transferred from the rear container through the sealing channel to the front container, and then the workpiece is moved horizontally from the inner cavity of the rear container 1 to the inner cavity of the front container 1, and the required processes are processed in each container 1. The workpiece does not need to be lifted or lowered, and can be transferred from the rear container to the front container, thereby simplifying the structure of the entire workpiece processing device and the space it occupies, and improving the efficiency of processing workpieces.

[0121] In the horizontal direction of movement of the sealing member 2, as shown in FIG. Figure 9 As shown, the distance between any two adjacent sealing components 2 is L1 i , the length of any sealed channel 3 is L0 i , where L1 i With L0 i Between: L0 min ≥L1 max , where L1 max For all L1 i The maximum value in L0 min For all L0 i , and i is a natural number greater than or equal to 1.

[0122] Specifically, the workpiece processing system further includes a sealing plate 405 provided between the first fixing seat and the second fixing seat of the hanger of the hanging mechanism. When the hanging mechanism passes through the sealing channel, the sealing plate 405 can be slidingly connected between the inner wall surfaces of the sealing channel in a sealing manner.

[0123] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clarity of explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that other variations or modifications based on the above descriptions are possible. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation methods here. Obvious variations or modifications arising therefrom remain within the scope of protection of the present invention.
