Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a tool, in particular to a hot-dip galvanizing tool for a suspension insulator iron cap. Background Art

[0002] At present, hot-dip galvanizing of iron caps is mostly done by pure manual operation, which has high labor intensity, poor working environment and cannot guarantee product quality. In addition, traditional hot-dip galvanizing of iron caps mostly uses vibration to remove excess zinc or zinc knocking to remove excess zinc, which does not completely remove excess zinc, resulting in a thick and uneven zinc layer and high zinc consumption. The special hanger for galvanizing iron caps with Chinese patent number CN102443751A only provides an iron cap hanger, which adopts mechanized hot-dip galvanizing. However, the hanger has a complex structure. Although it improves the automation level to a certain extent, the structure is too complicated, and the iron cap is shaped like a bowl. It is easy to accumulate dust and leak plating in the bowl of the iron cap, which has high requirements for galvanizing. The galvanizing effect of using this hanger is not ideal, and leak plating may occur, and the iron cap is inconvenient to take and install. Summary of the invention
