[0022] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the electroplating surface treatment equipment of this embodiment includes an electroplating box 1, a storage box 2 and a driving mechanism. The storage box 2 is used to place the parts to be electroplated and is located inside the electroplating box 1. The driving mechanism is used to drive the storage box 2 to move up and down and shake relative to the electroplating box 1. On the one hand, taking parts through the storage box 2 is convenient for batch processing of parts, which is more efficient than one-by-one grabbing operations. On the other hand, in addition to the function of moving up and down, the storage box 2 also has a shaking function. Under the action of the shaking force, the separation of the plating liquid from the parts can be accelerated, so that the subsequent drying efficiency of the parts can be improved, and at the same time, it is prevented that too much plating liquid adheres to the parts and drips on the ground, causing environmental pollution. The design structure is simple, the operation is convenient, stable and reliable, and it has significant application prospects and market potential.

[0023] The storage box 2 is provided with through holes, which are used for the parts to be electroplated to contact the electroplating solution in the electroplating box 1. In this embodiment, the storage box 2 is provided with through holes on the bottom and surrounding surfaces, and is preferably a basket.

[0024] The driving mechanism includes a first driving mechanism 3 and a second driving mechanism 4. One end of the first driving mechanism 3 is slidably mounted on the electroplating box 1, and the other end is connected to the storage box 2 and is used to drive the storage box 2 to move up and down relative to the electroplating box 1. The second driving mechanism 4 is connected to the first driving mechanism 3 and is used to drive the first driving mechanism 3 to move horizontally relative to the electroplating box 1. In the present invention, the second driving mechanism 4 drives the first driving mechanism 3 to move horizontally in a reciprocating manner, thereby driving the storage box 2 to shake. In this embodiment, the first driving mechanism 3 is slidably mounted on the electroplating box 1. In other embodiments, the first driving mechanism 3 can be slidably mounted on the ground or other places that are convenient for fixing, as long as it can achieve the goal of driving the storage box 2 to move up and down and to be fixed.

[0025] The first driving mechanism 3 includes a slide plate 31, an electric push rod 32 and a connecting frame 33. The slide plate 31 is slidably connected to the electroplating box 1, and the electric push rod 32 is installed on the slide plate 31. One end of the connecting frame 33 is connected to the storage box 2, and the other end is connected to the output end of the electric push rod 32. In the present invention, the slide plate 31 of the first driving mechanism 3 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the electroplating box 1. The slide plate 31 adopts a connection method of a guide rail and a slider. The electric push rod 32 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the slide plate 31. The connecting frame 33 is detachably connected to the storage box 2, that is, when working, the storage box 2 is driven down by the electric push rod 32, so that the parts are immersed in the electroplating solution to achieve electroplating. When the electroplating is completed, the electric push rod 32 pushes the storage box 2 upward again to facilitate lifting all the parts. The storage box 2 can be used to process multiple parts at one time, which effectively improves the processing efficiency.

[0026] In this embodiment, the connecting frame 33 is a U-shaped connecting piece, the opening of the U-shaped connecting piece faces downward, and the two ends of the U-shaped connecting piece are respectively connected to the storage box 2 and the electric push rod 32.

[0027] The electroplating surface treatment equipment further comprises a spring rod assembly 5 , and the connecting frame 33 is connected to the storage box 2 via the spring rod assembly 5 .

[0028] In this embodiment, a mounting groove 21 is formed on the storage box 2 , a positioning hole 331 is formed on the connecting frame 33 , the mounting groove 21 and the positioning hole 331 are correspondingly arranged, and the spring rod assembly 5 is located in the mounting groove 21 and the positioning hole 331 .

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a connecting rod is horizontally provided at one end of the connecting frame 33 near the storage box 2, and a positioning hole 331 is provided on the connecting rod. Two spring plug rod assemblies 5 are arranged at intervals on both sides of the storage box 2. The spring plug rod assembly 5 includes an elastic member 51 and a plug rod 52. The plug rod 52 is connected to one end of the elastic member 51 and is clamped in the positioning hole 331. Specifically, the mounting groove 21 is provided on the side of the storage box 2, and the elastic member 51 and the plug rod 52 are built in the mounting groove 21 to realize the elastic expansion and contraction of the plug rod 52. Two positioning holes 331 are respectively provided on the end surface of the connecting rod of the connecting frame 33, and the plug rod 52 of the spring plug rod assembly 5 is inserted into the positioning hole 331. Preferably, the elastic member 51 is a spring.

[0030] A stopper for preventing the elastic member 51 from popping out is provided on one side of the mounting groove 21 close to the positioning hole 331 .

[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, two guide grooves 332 are also provided on the end surface of the connecting frame 33. The guide grooves 332 are connected to the positioning hole 331 along the side of the connecting frame 33. The guide grooves 332 are gradually increased in size from the outside to the positioning hole 331 to form an inclined groove. The guide grooves 332 can facilitate the guidance of the spring plug assembly 5. When installing, the plug rod 52 of the spring plug assembly 5 can be first aligned with the guide groove 332 and moved upward to the storage box 2 until the plug rod 52 moves to the positioning hole 331 to complete the clamping, so as to achieve the fixation of the storage box 2. The initial state of the elastic member 51 is the extended state, not the compressed state, so it will not pop out when positioning; when pressed, the elastic member 51 shrinks inward to separate the positioning hole 331 and squeeze the elastic member 51.

[0032] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, one end face of the insertion rod 52 of the spring insertion rod assembly 5 is an inclined end face (in the shape of an oblique cut), and the inclination direction is consistent with the inclination direction of the guide groove 332. The two sides of the storage box 2 are also rotatably connected with the lifting rings 22. The provided lifting rings 22 facilitate lifting the storage box 2 upward. The design of the inclined end face is used to force the insertion rod 52 to retract through the inclined end face when the storage box 2 is directly lifted upward, thereby completing the automatic separation of the storage box 2 and the connecting frame 33. In this way, after the electroplating is completed, the storage box 2 can be lifted upward by the lifting equipment, thereby improving the convenience of operation.

[0033] In this embodiment, a slide rail 11 is provided on the side of the electroplating box 1 , and the slide rail 11 is horizontally arranged and used to install the slide plate 31 .

[0034] In this embodiment, the first driving mechanism 3 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the electroplating box 1.

[0035] The second driving mechanism 4 includes a driving member 41 and a connecting assembly 42. One end of the connecting assembly 42 is connected to the slide plate 31, and the other end is connected to the output end of the driving member 41. The driving member 41 is used to drive the slide plate 31 to slide horizontally to swing the storage box 2. In this embodiment, the driving member 41 is a double-axis motor fixed to the side of the electroplating box 1. The shaft ends of the double-axis motor are respectively connected to the connecting assembly 42. When the double-axis motor rotates, the slide plate 31 is driven to move through the connecting assembly 42, so that the storage box 2 can be shaken.

[0036] The connecting assembly 42 includes a crank 421 and a connecting rod 422 . One end of the crank 421 is connected to the output end of the driving member 41 , and the other end is hinged to one end of the connecting rod 422 . The other end of the connecting rod 422 is connected to the slide plate 31 .
