Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an alternating flipping electroplating mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Electroplating is a process of plating a thin layer of other metals or alloys on the surface of certain metals by using the principle of electrolysis. It is a process of attaching a metal film to the surface of metal or other material parts by using electrolysis, so as to prevent metal oxidation, improve wear resistance, electrical conductivity, reflectivity, corrosion resistance and enhance beauty. The outer layer of many coins is also electroplated. Generally, the electroplating solution is poured into the electroplating tank, and the parts to be electroplated are sent into the electroplating solution in the electroplating tank to achieve electroplating, and then taken out. However, when the electroplated parts are taken out from the electroplating solution in the electroplating tank, the electroplating solution attached to the electroplated parts will drip downward. It is often necessary to dry the electroplated parts for a period of time so that the electroplating solution on the electroplated parts will not drip. In this way, before replacing the electroplated parts for the next electroplating, it is necessary to wait for the electroplated parts electroplated last time to dry, so continuous electroplating operations cannot be carried out, and the operation efficiency is low.
