Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electroplating, and specifically to a locking method and a control method for a chain plate type barrel used in electroplating. Background Art

[0002] Scientifically classifying the types of barrel plating should mainly be based on the shape and axial direction of the barrel used in barrel plating. The barrel shape refers to what kind of utensil the outer shape of the barrel resembles, and the barrel axial direction refers to the relationship between the direction of the rotating shaft when the barrel rotates and the horizontal plane. According to the differences in these two aspects of the barrel, the common barrel plating methods in electroplating production are divided into three categories: horizontal barrel plating, inclined barrel plating, and vibration electroplating.

[0003] When performing barrel plating, a chain plate type barrel device for electroplating is required to electroplate parts. The barrels of the existing chain plate type barrels for electroplating are mostly integrally designed. When a problem occurs with the barrel, the whole needs to be replaced, which is very inconvenient to use. In addition, after electroplating, the barrel cannot be locked quickly, resulting in the parts after electroplating continuing to rotate and collide in the barrel, affecting the final electroplating effect.

A limiting groove 555 matching with the limiting block 553 is formed on the left side of the connecting plate 554.

[0041] As Figure 1 And 3 The second embodiment is shown. The main difference from the first embodiment is that: a driving shaft 10 is rotatably connected between the opposite sides of the two baffles 1. The two ends of the driving shaft 10 respectively penetrate to the left side and the right side of the two baffles 1. A driving gear 12 is fixedly connected to the end of the driving shaft 10 located on the right side of the baffle 1. A second gear 11 is fixedly connected to the surface of the driving shaft 10 located between the opposite sides of the two baffles 1.

A hydraulic cylinder 96 is rotatably connected to the left side of the baffle 1. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 96 is rotatably connected to a second T-shaped connecting piece 97. One side of the second T-shaped connecting piece 97 is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting spring 95. A blocking rod 98 is fixedly connected to the other end of the bent rod 93.

[0043] A fixing rod 13 is fixedly connected between the two opposite sides. The fixing rod 13 is located directly above the driving shaft 10. A feeding port 7 is formed on one of the multiple drum plates 6. A switch door mechanism 8 is arranged above the feeding port 7.

[0044] The present invention also discloses a locking method for a chain plate type drum in a control method for a chain plate type drum used for electroplating, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0045] Step 1: Turn on the switch door mechanism 8, place the parts to be processed into the drum, then engage the drive gear 12 with the gear on the drive motor, start the drive motor to make the drive gear 12 rotate. The rotation of the drive gear 12 drives the drive shaft 10 to rotate. The rotation of the drive shaft 10 drives and transmits power to the first gear 4. The rotation of the first gear 4 drives the short shaft 2 to rotate. The rotation of the short shaft 2 drives the disc 3 to rotate. The rotation of the disc 3 causes the drum composed of six drum plates 6 to rotate, thereby performing electroplating.

[0046] Step 2: When the electroplating is completed, the drive motor stops rotating. At the same time, start the hydraulic cylinder 96. The hydraulic cylinder 96 works and pushes the bent rod 93 to rotate through the second T-shaped connector 97, the connecting spring 95 and the first T-shaped connector 94. After the bent rod 93 rotates a certain angle, the stop rod 98 contacts the surface of the turntable 91. The hydraulic cylinder 96 continues to push a certain distance so that the connecting spring 95 is compressed, and then stops working. After the turntable 91 contacts the stop rod 98, the rotation speed of the drum is reduced through friction. When the limit groove 92 rotates to be in the same straight line as the stop rod 98, the stop rod 98 enters the stop rod 98 under the action of the elastic force of the connecting spring 95, thereby immediately locking the rotation of the drum and making the drum plate 6 provided with the switch door mechanism 8 at the uppermost position.

[0047] Step 3: When the drum plate 6 needs to be replaced, rotate the knob 513. The rotation of the knob 513 drives the rotating rod 512 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating rod 512 drives the second bevel gear 514 to rotate. The rotation of the second bevel gear 514 drives the first bevel gear 511 to rotate. The rotation of the first bevel gear 511 drives the fourth gear 510 to rotate through the rotating shaft 59. The rotation of the fourth gear 510 causes the arc gear 58 to rotate. The rotation of the arc gear 58 causes the third gear 52 to rotate. The rotation of the third gear 52 drives the lead screw 53 to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw 53 makes the connecting block 54 move, so that the six drum plates 6 are simultaneously unfolded. Then, the drum plate 6 is pushed to one side, so that the limit block 553 comes out of the limit groove 555, thereby facilitating the removal of the drum plate 6.
