A liquid inlet is arranged above the upper plating solution box electroplating frame 9 electroplating frame. The plating solution enters the upper plating solution box electroplating frame 9 electroplating frame through the liquid inlet and then is sprinkled downward through the plating solution controller. The lower plating solution is to ensure that the plating solution flows evenly through the porous anode plate and the anode mesh and then contacts the upper surface of the workpiece to be plated evenly and continuously. All lower cathode contact structures are above the electroplating frame 1 and slightly higher than the electroplating frame 1 to ensure that the workpiece to be plated can be driven to move normally. A liquid inlet is arranged at the bottom of the horizontal electroplating equipment, and a reflux plate is arranged. The reflux plate is located lower than the electroplating frame 1. The electroplating frame 1 contains plating solution. The lower plating solution box electroplating frame 9 obtains the plating solution from the electrolytic cell through the liquid inlet below it and then sprays the plating solution through the plating solution controller, so that the plating solution flows evenly and continuously through the porous anode plate and the anode mesh and then contacts the lower surface of the workpiece to be plated evenly. Finally, the plating solution is refluxed through the reflux device electroplating frame 10 and the vacuum aspirator electroplating frame 4 to realize the circulation of the plating solution.
