Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of electroplating, and particularly relates to an energy-saving and efficient metal surface electroplating device. Background Art

[0002] Electroplating is the process of plating a thin layer of other metals or alloys on the surface of certain metals by using the electrolysis principle. 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, etc.

[0003] The principle of electroplating is that under the action of a DC power supply, the coating metal on the anode dissolves into metal ions, and these ions migrate to the cathode surface under the action of the electric field and are reduced and deposited to form a coating.

During electroplating, whether the electroplating workpiece is large or small, a large amount of electroplating solution is required for electroplating operations. The large amount of electroplating solution cannot be fully utilized, resulting in waste. Moreover, due to the excessive electroplating solution, it takes a long time to adjust the temperature, affecting the electroplating efficiency.

A lower supporting spring 38 is arranged at the lower end of the inner side of the mounting frame 32. The upper end of the lower supporting spring 38 is fixedly mounted with a lower supporting seat 37 through bolts. The lower end of the electroplating anodic tube 33 is engaged in the card slot of the lower supporting seat 37; The heating mechanism 7 includes a heat insulation pad 71 mounted on the inner side of the end groove body 14. A heating tube 72 is arranged on one side of the heat insulation pad 71. A heat conducting plate 75 is fixedly mounted on the inner bottom of the end groove body 14.

A reinforcing inner frame 45 is fixedly installed inside the lifting top frame 42. One end of the reinforcing inner frame 45 is fixedly installed with a reinforcing support plate 46. The lifting top frame 42 is lifted and adjusted by driving the elevating hydraulic cylinder 43. The metal parts are lifted by the electric hoist 49 and a hook, etc., and then lowered into the plating solution in the plating tank body 1; a limiting plate 44 is arranged inside the lifting base 41. The elevating hydraulic cylinder 43 is fixedly bolted to the limiting plate 44. A reinforcing hanging rod 47 is integrally formed at the upper end of the reinforcing inner frame 45. One end of the reinforcing hanging rod 47 is fixedly installed on the reinforcing support plate 46 by bolts.

[0048] Further, refer to Figures 1 to 11 , the buffer mechanism 5 includes a buffer pressure plate 51 slidably installed inside the lifting top frame 42 and a buffer spring 52 installed on the reinforcing support plate 46. The upper end of the buffer spring 52 supports on the buffer pressure plate 51. The hoisting seat 48 is slidably installed inside the reinforcing support plate 46 through a sliding hole. The upper end of the hoisting seat 48 is fixedly installed on the buffer pressure plate 51 by bolts. A shock-absorbing push plate 53 is welded and fixed on the lower surface of the buffer pressure plate 51. A shock-absorbing sliding plate 54 is slidably installed on the upper side of the reinforcing support plate 46. One side of the shock-absorbing sliding plate 54 is fixedly installed with a shock-absorbing spring 55. One end of the shock-absorbing spring 55 supports inside the lifting top frame 42. The hoisting seat 48 drives the buffer pressure plate 51 to press on the buffer spring 52 for buffering, and the shock-absorbing push plate 53 pushes the shock-absorbing sliding plate 54 to slide and compress the shock-absorbing spring 55 for shock absorption; a damping sliding seat 57 is fixedly installed on the surface of the reinforcing support plate 46 by bolts. A damping sliding groove 56 is opened on the lower side of the shock-absorbing sliding plate 54. One side of the shock-absorbing push plate 53 and the shock-absorbing sliding plate 54 are both set as inclined surfaces, and the shock-absorbing push plate 53 and the shock-absorbing sliding plate 54 are slidably connected through the inclined surfaces.

Moreover, during the lifting electroplating, the vibrations generated are buffered by the buffer pressing plate 51 pressing on the buffer spring 52. Meanwhile, the buffer pressing plate 51 drives the shock-absorbing push plate 53 to push the shock-absorbing sliding plate 54 to slide and press on the shock-absorbing spring 55 for shock absorption. And the frictional damping between the shock-absorbing push plate 53 and the shock-absorbing sliding plate 54 and the frictional damping between the damping chute 56 and the damping slider 57 ensure better shock absorption effects.

[0050] The working principle and usage process of the present invention: During use, according to the length of the metal part, the hydraulic cylinder 21 is adjusted to drive the middle support plate 24 and the end support plate 25 to move, so that the middle support plate 24 and the end support plate 25 respectively drive the middle tank body 13 and the end tank body 14 to move positions, thereby adjusting the length of the electroplating tank body 1 composed of the main tank body 12, the middle tank body 13 and the end tank body 14, facilitating the use for different workpieces. During adjustment, the sealing mechanism 6 seals the main tank body 12, the middle tank body 13 and the end tank body 14. And the reinforcing rib 621 and the sealing gasket 622 on the sealing strip 62 are ensured to be closely attached for sealing by the push of the first spring 63. Moreover, during movement, with the push of the second support 66 and the rotation of the rotating rod 65, both ends of the sealing strip 62 are kept in fit, thus ensuring sealing. During use, the lifting hydraulic cylinder 43 drives the lifting top frame 42 to lift and adjust. The metal part is lifted by the electric hoist 49 and the hook, etc., and then lowered into the electroplating solution in the electroplating tank body 1. The metal part is supported for electroplating by the support tray 142. The vibrations generated during lifting cause the lifting seat 48 to drive the buffer pressing plate 51 to press on the buffer spring 52 for shock absorption. Meanwhile, the shock-absorbing push plate 53 pushes the shock-absorbing sliding plate 54 to slide and compress the shock-absorbing spring 55 for shock absorption, and further shock absorption is achieved in cooperation with the damping of the damping chute 56 and the damping slider 57, ensuring that the metal part is more stable during lifting and reducing the phenomenon of fatigue damage at the joints. Through the heating of the heating tube 72 and the heat transfer of the heat-conducting graphite film 73 and the heat-conducting carbon fiber sheet 74, in cooperation with the circulation motor 144 driving the propeller blade 145 to operate to push the electroplating solution to circulate and flow, the electroplating solution is quickly and evenly heated. The metal part is electroplated quickly by the electroplating anodic tube 33. After long-term use, when replacing the electroplating anodic tube 33, only need to move the electroplating anodic tube 33 to press on the lower support 37 and the lower support spring 38, and then remove the installation pressing plate 34, then the electroplating anodic tube 33 can be taken out obliquely for replacement, which is more convenient during disassembly and replacement.
