Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of electroplating technology auxiliary systems, and in particular to an automatic drug dispensing and dosing system for multiple electroplating lines. Background Art

[0002] Electroplating technology is widely used in the metal processing industry. It not only provides metal products with excellent appearance, performance and durability.

[0003] The electroplating tank is the core equipment in the electroplating process. The electroplating tank contains specially configured electroplating solution. The hanger in the electroplating line immerses the suspended parts to be electroplated into the electroplating solution in the electroplating tank. The rectifier provides DC power, and the metal ions in the electroplating solution are deposited on the surface of the parts to form an electroplating layer. In the above process, the electroplating solution will be reduced due to the deposition of metal ions, and may also be lost due to evaporation, leakage or other reasons. Therefore, technicians need to regularly add electroplating solution to the electroplating tank to maintain the stability of the electroplating process.

[0004] In order to improve the output efficiency of electroplating lines, most electroplating companies choose to set up multiple electroplating lines in an electroplating workshop and put them into production at the same time. Different electroplating lines correspond to metal workpieces of different shapes. Compared with a workshop with only one electroplating line, this reduces the frequency of resetting production parameters and achieves long-term cost reduction and efficiency improvement. In order to further increase the output of the electroplating line, multiple electroplating tanks with the same structural dimensions can be additionally set on one electroplating line, so that multiple workpieces can be electroplated at the same time.

[0005] Regarding the above-mentioned related technologies, although this improves the output rate of the electroplating line, when there are multiple electroplating lines, technicians are still required to configure the plating solution for each production line one by one and add the plating solution to each plating tank of each production line. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to improve the configuration and delivery efficiency of the electroplating solution and adapt to multiple electroplating lines to achieve efficient replacement of the electroplating solution, the present application provides an automatic dispensing and dosing system for multiple electroplating lines.

[0007] The present application provides an automatic dispensing and dosing system for multiple electroplating lines using the following technical solutions: An automatic dispensing and dosing system for multiple electroplating lines, comprising: A conveying frame is arranged on one side of the electroplating tank, and the conveying frame is divided into multiple layers; A storage bin, fixed on the conveying frame, for storing medicines required for configuring the electroplating solution, wherein the storage bin is provided with an automatic detection device for detecting the residual amount of the electroplating solution in the storage bin; A plurality of dispensing boxes are slidably arranged on the conveying frame and connected to the storage bin, and the inside of the dispensing boxes is used to accurately configure the electroplating liquid corresponding to different electroplating lines; A medicine adding box is slidably arranged in multiple rows below the medicine dispensing box, each row includes multiple medicine adding boxes, the distribution direction of the multiple medicine adding boxes is parallel to the distribution direction of multiple electroplating tanks in an electroplating line, and the medicine adding box is connected to the medicine dispensing box; A first sliding mechanism is arranged on the conveying frame corresponding to the medicine dispensing box; The second sliding mechanism is arranged below the conveying frame corresponding to the medicine adding box, and the sliding direction of the medicine adding box is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the medicine dispensing box.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the conveyor frame is the main bearing structure of the automatic dispensing and dosing system, and the storage bin, dispensing box, dosing box and the second sliding mechanism are all arranged on the conveyor frame. Relying on the stable support of the conveyor frame, the devices in each dispensing and dosing system are reasonably distributed on each layer of the conveyor frame, so that the above system can maintain stable operation; The storage bin stores pre-configured medicines required for configuring the electroplating solution, and the medicine dispensing box stores the general electroplating solution pre-configured by the technicians. The general electroplating solution is combined with the prefabricated solid medicines in the storage bin to form a refined electroplating solution. Different electroplating solutions should be configured for different electroplating lines. Therefore, the technicians should add different medicines in time for different electroplating lines. When the medicines corresponding to a certain production line are configured in the medicine dispensing box, the second sliding mechanism pushes the medicine dispensing box to slide in the direction of the medicine adding box until the connecting part of the medicine adding box and the medicine dispensing box are aligned. The medicine dispensing box transports the configured medicines to the medicine adding box. After the transportation is completed, the medicine adding box transports the electroplating solution to the electroplating tank. The medicine adding box, as a device for directly transporting the electroplating solution, needs to be provided with a docking component for docking with the electroplating tank to transport the electroplating solution to the electroplating tank. In the above scheme, the distribution direction of each row of dosing boxes is parallel to the distribution direction of the electroplating tanks in an electroplating line, so as to avoid structural interference caused by the tilt of the dosing boxes during the transportation of the electroplating solution, or to affect the docking of the dosing boxes and the electroplating tanks; It should be noted that, considering the accuracy of dosing, the plating solution cannot be added directly to the dosing box after preparation. It needs to be quantified and mixed in the dosing box to ensure that the plating solution is stable before adding.

[0009] Optionally, each row of the drug adding boxes corresponds to a portion between two adjacent electroplating lines; The number of rows of the drug adding boxes is not greater than the number of electroplating lines, and the number of the drug adding boxes in each row is not less than the number of electroplating tanks in each electroplating line.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the space occupation cost is reduced to a minimum; in the above solution, on the basis of each row of dosing boxes being distributed parallel to the electroplating line, each row of dosing boxes is aligned with the part between two adjacent electroplating tanks, so that one row of dosing boxes can simultaneously supply the electroplating solution in the electroplating tanks of two adjacent electroplating lines; thus, on the basis of one row of dosing boxes corresponding to one electroplating line, the dosing boxes corresponding to all or part of the electroplating tanks on another electroplating line are installed on the row of dosing boxes, so as to reduce the number of rows of dosing boxes; For example, when there are three electroplating lines in the workshop, there are two gaps between the three electroplating lines, that is, two rows of medicine adding boxes are distributed corresponding to the gaps between the two electroplating lines, and each row of medicine adding boxes corresponds to the number of electroplating tanks on more than one electroplating line, that is, the number of medicine adding boxes in each row is not less than the number of electroplating tanks in each electroplating line. This is a technical solution to ensure that each electroplating tank has at least one electroplating box corresponding to it.

[0011] Optionally, when there are two electroplating lines, the drug adding boxes are distributed in two rows.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, for electroplating workshops with a small electroplating scale and relatively low output value, one or two electroplating lines are usually set up, and one electroplating line only needs to be set up with one row of dosing boxes, but two electroplating lines cannot be set up with only one row of dosing boxes, that is, the dosing boxes cannot be set up according to the above interval arrangement of the two electroplating lines, because the dosing boxes with the number of plating tanks in no less than two electroplating lines are concentrated in one row, resulting in a longer length of the dosing boxes, which greatly reduces the space utilization rate; Therefore, when there are two electroplating lines, two rows of dosing boxes should be set up accordingly.

[0013] Optionally, the number of the drug adding boxes is equal to the number of the electroplating tanks; The adjacent medicine adding boxes are detachably connected.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the number of dosing boxes is not less than the number of plating tanks, and the dosing boxes and plating tanks are matched one by one, and the capacity of a single dosing box corresponds to the capacity of the plating tank, that is, one dosing box corresponds to only one plating tank during its use cycle, thereby reducing the implementation cost and space occupancy rate to a minimum.

[0015] Optionally, the medicine dispensing box is provided with: A conveying device is fixed on the conveying frame, connected to the medicine dispensing box and the storage bin, and is used to convey the customized liquid medicine to the medicine dispensing box.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the conveying device builds a connecting channel between the storage bin and the medicine dispensing box. In the above solution, in order to facilitate the discharge of materials, the conveying device is arranged above the medicine dispensing box, but the storage bin and the medicine dispensing box cannot be directly connected. It is not convenient to control the amount of medicine directly from the storage bin to the medicine dispensing box. When the medicine dispensing box slides to the corresponding position through the first sliding mechanism, the discharge port of the storage bin and the feed port of the medicine dispensing box are opened at the same time, and the conveying device conveys the solid medicine in the storage bin to the medicine dispensing box and dissolves it in the medicine dispensing box; in order to facilitate the transportation and dissolution of the medicine, the medicine in the storage bin is generally in powder and granular form, so under normal circumstances, it is recommended to select a screw conveyor as the conveying device.

[0017] Optionally, the first sliding mechanism acts on two opposite sides of the medicine dispensing box, and opposite side walls of the medicine dispensing box are formed corresponding to the first sliding mechanism; The slide grooves are horizontally arranged in multiple groups, and the multiple groups of slide grooves are vertically distributed.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the first sliding mechanism is used for sliding of multiple medicine dispensing boxes along a straight line. The first sliding mechanism is set to act on the opposite sides of the medicine dispensing box, and further to act on multiple groups of slide grooves of the medicine dispensing box. The slide grooves are horizontally formed along the opposite side walls of the medicine dispensing box to play a sliding guide role for the medicine dispensing box. In the above scheme, a group of slide grooves are arranged at different heights on the opposite side walls of the medicine dispensing box. When initially constructing the sliding connection structure between the first sliding mechanism and the medicine dispensing box on the conveying frame, technicians can select slide grooves at different heights to connect with the first sliding mechanism to adapt to the height relationship between the storage bin, the medicine dispensing box and the medicine adding box.

[0019] Optionally, it also includes; The water storage device is fixed on the conveying frame and arranged on one side of the conveying device. The water storage device is connected to the medicine dispensing box.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the water storage device adds water required for the configuration of the plating solution to the medicine dispensing box, and the technicians need to configure the corresponding universal plating solution inside the medicine dispensing box before connecting it to the storage bin, as the basic agent of the refined plating solution of the corresponding electroplating line; therefore, before the first sliding mechanism acts, the technicians connect the medicine dispensing box with the water storage device, and the water storage device transports a certain amount of water to the medicine dispensing box, and at the same time, the technicians add a certain amount of pre-configured medicines to the medicine dispensing box and stir them evenly; then the first sliding mechanism operates to align the medicine dispensing box configured with the universal plating solution with the storage bin, and the technicians repeat the above process to configure the universal plating solution for the next medicine dispensing box; The configuration process of general plating solution and the configuration process of precision plating solution are carried out simultaneously, which effectively improves the dosing efficiency of the electroplating line.

[0021] Optionally, the interval length between two adjacent rows of the medicine adding boxes is greater than the length of the medicine dispensing boxes.

[0022] By adopting the above technical scheme, in addition to simultaneously carrying out the configuration process of the general plating liquid and the configuration process of the precision plating liquid, through the above-mentioned structural distance relationship, the precision plating liquid transportation process between multiple medicine preparation boxes and medicine adding boxes can also be carried out simultaneously, that is, when the precision plating liquid is transported from the medicine preparation box to the inside of the medicine adding box, when the medicine preparation box and the medicine adding box are connected, there is sufficient space between adjacent medicine adding boxes.

[0023] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. From the perspective of configuring and transporting the plating solution, the degree of automation of the process of replenishing the plating solution in the plating tank is improved. In the application scenario where there are a large number of plating lines and plating tanks, there is no need for technicians to add the plating solution to each plating tank in turn, which greatly improves the transportation efficiency; 2. A row of dosing boxes is set corresponding to two adjacent electroplating lines, so that a row of dosing boxes can correspond to the electroplating tanks on only two electroplating lines. When adding drugs, the electroplating lines and the dosing boxes are alternated, which improves the space utilization and reduces the setting cost of the second sliding mechanism corresponding to the dosing boxes; 3. Multiple processes can be carried out simultaneously, increasing the dosing efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The following is combined with Figure 1-5 This application is described in further detail.

[0031] Embodiment 1: The embodiment of the present application discloses an automatic dispensing and dosing system for multiple electroplating lines, which is suitable for the case where there are more than two electroplating lines 1. Figure 1 An automatic dispensing and dosing system for multiple electroplating lines 1 includes a conveyor rack 2 arranged on one side of the multiple electroplating lines 1. The conveyor rack 2 is the main structure of this embodiment, which is divided into multiple layers. The various components in the automatic dispensing and dosing system are distributed on each layer of the conveyor rack 2.

[0032] It should be noted that the number of plating tanks 11 and the number of layers of the conveyor rack 2 in this embodiment are only examples, and the actual application is not limited to this number.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 A storage bin 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the conveying frame 2. The storage bin 21 contains solid powder required for the electroplating solution. The top of the storage bin 21 is a rectangular body, and a feed port for adding medicine into the storage bin 21 is opened on the top side. The technician regularly opens the feed port and adds the prefabricated solid powder for electroplating into the storage bin 21. An automatic detection device is provided in the storage bin 21. The automatic detection device can detect the remaining powder in the storage bin 21 and send a prompt to the technician to remind him to add medicine.

[0034] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned automatic detection device technology is relatively existing, and the implementation means are not limited. For example, a weight sensor is added to the inner bottom wall of the storage bin 21 to connect an external alarm, and a level signal is sent to the alarm through the current change to make the alarm work. Another example is to set a light sensor on the inner wall of the storage bin 21 and an external alarm light. When the drug dosage drops to a certain level, the light sensors send and receive light signals to each other, giving the alarm light a level change, switching the operating state of the alarm light, etc. In actual application, you can choose according to the actual situation.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 A medicine dispensing box 22 is arranged on the conveying rack 2 below the storage bin 21. There are multiple medicine dispensing boxes 22 distributed along one direction. The multiple medicine dispensing boxes 22 are slidably connected to the conveying rack 2, and the sliding direction is parallel to the distribution direction of the medicine dispensing boxes 22. The medicine dispensing box 22 contains a pre-configured universal electroplating liquid. Due to the different workpiece materials and appearance performance requirements in different electroplating lines 1, the electroplating liquids used in different electroplating lines 1 are different. The universal electroplating liquid needs to be fused and mixed with the medicine powder in the above-mentioned storage bin 21 to become a refined electroplating liquid. The solid medicines in the storage bin 21 are separately configured corresponding to different medicine dispensing boxes 22. Therefore, although the universal electroplating liquid in different medicine dispensing boxes 22 is the same, it becomes a refined electroplating liquid corresponding to different electroplating lines 1 after being fused with the medicine powder in the storage bin 21.

[0036] Reference Figure 1In order to build the drug conveying connection structure between the above-mentioned storage bin 21 and the medicine dispensing box 22, the discharge port of the storage bin 21 is set at the bottom of the storage bin 21, and the bottom wall of the storage bin 21 is inclined toward the discharge port of the storage bin 21, so that the bottom of the storage bin 21 is funnel-shaped, so that the medicine powder inside the storage bin 21 can be discharged more easily under the action of gravity; each medicine dispensing box 22 is provided with a medicine inlet, which is used for the medicine dispensing box 22 to input the medicine powder from the storage bin 21. By sliding the multiple medicine dispensing boxes 22 in the same direction, the medicine inlets of the multiple medicine dispensing boxes 22 can be connected to the conveying device in turn, and then the different solid medicine powders in the above-mentioned storage bin 21 are transported to each storage bin 21.

[0037] Reference Figure 1 A conveying device is provided on the conveying frame 2, and the conveying device connects the drug inlet of the medicine dispensing box 22 and the discharge port of the storage bin 21. Considering that the conveyed medicine is in solid powder form, in this embodiment, a screw conveyor 23 is adopted as the main structure of the conveying device; the inlet of the screw conveyor 23 is arranged directly below the discharge port of the storage bin 21, and the height of the inlet of the screw conveyor 23 is higher than the height of the drug inlet of the medicine dispensing box 22. The conveying channel of the screw conveyor 23 is inclined downward, and gravity can be better utilized to accelerate the conveying efficiency while spiral conveying. The outlet end is directly above the straight line where the drug inlets of multiple medicine dispensing boxes 22 are located, so that the multiple medicine dispensing boxes 22 can slide in a straight line so that their respective drug inlets can be aligned with the outlet of the screw conveyor 23.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In order to realize the automatic sliding of the above-mentioned medicine dispensing box 22, a first sliding mechanism 24 is provided at the conveying frame 2 in this embodiment, which is used to drive the medicine dispensing box 22 to slide in a straight line direction; the first sliding mechanism 24 includes a first guide rail 241 opened on the conveying frame 2, and the distance between the two first guide rails 241 corresponds to the spacing between the two opposite sides of the medicine dispensing box 22. The medicine dispensing box 22 is formed with a slide groove 242 corresponding to the two first guide rails 241. The slide groove 242 is located above the first guide rail 241. Multiple groups of rollers are rotatably connected inside the slide groove 242, and the rollers abut against the first guide rail 241. A motor for driving the rollers is fixed to the outer wall of the slide groove 242. The motor drives the rollers to roll, so that the medicine dispensing box 22 slides along the length direction of the first guide rail 241.

[0039] Reference Figure 1, a water tank 25 is provided on the conveying frame 2, and the water tank 25 is used to inject water into the medicine dispensing box 22 for the configuration of the universal electroplating solution in the medicine dispensing box 22. Before the first sliding mechanism 24 pushes the medicine dispensing box 22 to slide toward the screw conveyor 23, the medicine dispensing box 22 is connected to the water tank 25, and the water tank 25 injects water into the medicine dispensing box 22. At the same time, the technician adds reagents into the medicine dispensing box 22 to complete the configuration of the universal electroplating solution. Furthermore, in order to mix the electroplating solution, an agitator is provided inside the medicine dispensing box 22 in this embodiment, and a motor for driving the agitator to rotate is provided on the top of the medicine dispensing box 22. When the universal electroplating solution is configured as above, the motor drives the agitator to rotate to mix the universal electroplating solution.

[0040] It should be noted that the position of the connection part of the medicine dispensing box 22 with the water storage tank 25 needs to be designed in advance, so that when one medicine dispensing box 22 slides to the medicine inlet to align with the outlet of the screw conveyor 23, the other medicine dispensing box 22 can have sufficient space to align with the water storage tank 25.

[0041] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A plurality of rows of slidable dosing boxes 26 are arranged below the medicine dispensing box 22. The sliding direction of the dosing boxes 26 is horizontal, and the prepared refined electroplating liquid is transported toward the direction of the electroplating line 1 and perpendicular to the sliding direction of the medicine dispensing box 22. Therefore, after the refined electroplating liquid is prepared in the medicine dispensing box 22, the medicine dispensing box 22 is connected to the dosing box 26 below, and the refined electroplating liquid inside is transported to the dosing box 26 for storage. The dosing box 26 then slides to the electroplating line 1, aligns with the electroplating tank 11, and transports the refined electroplating liquid to the electroplating tank 11.

[0042] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the number of rows of medicine adding boxes 26 is equal to the number of medicine dispensing boxes 22, that is, one medicine dispensing box 22 corresponds to one row of medicine adding boxes 26, and as the medicine adding boxes 26 and the medicine dispensing boxes 22 slide in directions perpendicular to each other, the medicine outlet of the medicine dispensing box 22 and the medicine inlet of the medicine adding box 26 can be located on a vertical line to complete docking, so that the refined electroplating liquid configured in one medicine dispensing box 22 can be transported to the inside of a row of medicine adding boxes 26; further, in this embodiment, in order to realize that multiple rows of medicine adding boxes 26 simultaneously receive the electroplating liquid from the medicine dispensing box 22 and improve the transportation efficiency of the electroplating liquid, the spacing between the connecting parts of the medicine dispensing box 22 and the medicine adding box 26 is greater than the length of the medicine dispensing box 22, so that when a row of medicine adding boxes 26 is docked with the medicine dispensing box 22 to transport the refined electroplating liquid, there is enough space between adjacent medicine dispensing boxes 22 to avoid mutual interference.

[0043] In any embodiment of the present application, multiple rows of dosing boxes 26 are arranged corresponding to the areas between the multiple electroplating lines 1, so that when the number of electroplating lines 1 is an odd number greater than 1, each row of dosing boxes 26 can slide to the position between the multiple electroplating lines 1, or when the number of electroplating lines 1 is an even number greater than 2, except for the edge row of dosing boxes 26, all can slide to the position between the multiple electroplating lines 1, and the edge row of dosing boxes 26 slides to the outside of the electroplating line 1 at the edge.

[0044] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 In order to prevent the medicine dosing box 26 from sliding, a second sliding mechanism 27 is provided in the present embodiment. The second sliding mechanism 27 includes a second guide rail laid between the plurality of electroplating lines 1, one end of the second guide rail is located below the conveying frame 2, and the end of the second guide rail away from the conveying frame 2 extends to the end of each electroplating line 1 away from the conveying frame 2, so that the plurality of rows of medicine dosing boxes 26 can be transported to each electroplating tank 11 of the electroplating line 1 according to the second guide rail, thereby ensuring the transportation of the electroplating liquid; the second sliding mechanism 27 also includes rollers adapted to the second sliding mechanism 27, which are the same as the first sliding mechanism 24, and the rollers are rotatably connected to the bottom of both sides of each medicine dosing box 26, and a driving motor is provided on both sides of the bottom of the medicine dosing box 26 for driving the rollers; thus, the driving motor drives the rollers to rotate, thereby driving the medicine dosing box 26 to slide back and forth along the second guide rail.

[0045] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 , which is different from the first sliding mechanism 24, the first sliding mechanism 24 is adapted to a small number of medicine dispensing boxes 22, so a drive motor can be correspondingly set on each medicine dispensing box 22, but the number of medicine dispensing boxes 26 is large, if a drive motor is set on each medicine dispensing box 26, the investment and maintenance costs will be greatly increased. Therefore, when the number of medicine dispensing boxes 26 is large in this embodiment, the drive motor can only be set on the two medicine dispensing boxes 26 at the two ends of a row of medicine dispensing boxes 26, and all the medicine dispensing boxes 26 are connected by a connecting structure. When the medicine dispensing box 26 slides, the one in front of the sliding direction The driving motor operates to drive all the dosing boxes 26 to slide through the connecting structure; the above-mentioned connecting structure adopts a swing hook 262 and an expansion ring 261 made of 304 steel. The length of the swing hook 262 and the expansion ring 261 after being straightened is slightly larger than the spacing between adjacent electroplating tanks 11 on the same electroplating line 1, for example, larger than 10% of the length of the dosing box 26, so that when the transportation of the row of dosing boxes 26 stops, the inertia of the dosing box 26 body and the refined electroplating liquid in the dosing box 26 offsets the distance of one end of the dosing box 26 moving forward, thereby reducing the collision damage between the swing hook 262 and the expansion ring 261.

[0046] The implementation principle of an automatic dispensing and dosing system for multiple electroplating lines in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: in an initial state, a plurality of dispensing boxes 22 are located on a side of the conveying device away from the dosing boxes 26 , and each row of dosing boxes 26 is located below the conveying frame 2 .

[0047] The technicians first install the pipeline between the water storage tank 25 and the single medicine dispensing box 22, transport the water in the water storage tank 25 to the inside of the medicine dispensing box 22, and add medicine to the inside of the medicine dispensing box 22 through the medicine adding port of the medicine dispensing box 22, and stir it to form a universal electroplating solution.

[0048] The storage bin 21 is equipped with a sufficient amount of medicine powder. As the medicine dispensing box 22 slides, the technician adds an additional amount of medicine powder into the storage bin 21 corresponding to different medicine dispensing boxes 22, that is, the storage bin 21 can convey different medicine powders corresponding to different medicine dispensing boxes 22. These medicine powders are mixed with the universal electroplating liquid in the medicine dispensing boxes 22, so that different medicine dispensing boxes 22 contain different refined electroplating liquids; while one medicine dispensing box 22 is preparing the refined electroplating liquid, the next medicine dispensing box 22 repeats the above-mentioned universal electroplating liquid preparation process to improve efficiency.

[0049] One medicine dispensing box 22 corresponds to a row of medicine adding boxes 26. After the proportioning of the refined electroplating liquid in the above-mentioned medicine dispensing box 22 is completed, the first sliding mechanism 24 drives the medicine dispensing box 22 to slide toward the corresponding row of medicine adding boxes 26, until the medicine dispensing box 22 corresponds to the frontmost medicine adding box 26 in the row of medicine adding boxes 26. The technicians connect the special anti-corrosion pipe between the medicine outlet of the medicine dispensing box 22 and the medicine inlet of the medicine adding box 26, and at the same time, the other medicine dispensing box 22 is connected to the storage bin 21.

[0050] The second sliding mechanism 27 drives the dosing box 26 to slide in turn in the direction away from the conveying rack 2, so that each dosing box 26 is aligned with the drug outlet of the dispensing box 22 in turn. After the dosing of the dosing boxes 26 in this row is completed, it is located between the multiple electroplating lines 1 and aligned with each electroplating tank 11 in the electroplating line 1, or the second sliding mechanism 27 pushes the dosing box 26 to slide to align with each electroplating tank 11; the technicians connect the dosing boxes 26 in turn to complete the delivery of the electroplating solution into the electroplating tank 11.

[0051] Embodiment 2: The embodiment of the present application discloses an automatic dispensing and dosing system for multiple electroplating lines, which is suitable for the case where there are two electroplating lines 1. Figure 4 The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is only the difference in the number of electroplating lines 1 and dosing boxes 26, so the remaining structures are not described in detail.

[0052] Reference Figure 4 In this embodiment, there are two electroplating lines 1. If the dosing box 26 corresponds to the area between the two electroplating lines 1, there is only one row of dosing boxes 26. Under the premise that the dosing boxes 26 correspond to the electroplating tanks 11 one by one, the dosing boxes 26 are integrated into one row, resulting in a length that is too long, which not only reduces the space utilization, but also greatly increases the transportation distance of the dosing boxes 26, and increases the uncertainty of the transportation process.

[0053] Therefore, in this embodiment, when there are two electroplating lines 1, an additional row of dosing boxes 26 is provided to evenly distribute the number of dosing boxes 26 so that one row of dosing boxes 26 is aligned with the number of electroplating tanks 11 in one electroplating line 1.

[0054] In this embodiment, the number of the electroplating tanks 11 on one electroplating line 1 is three, but the actual application is not limited to three.

[0055] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
