Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electroplating equipment, and in particular to an electroplating rack with easy-to-adjust hooks. Background Art
[0002] Electroplating is a process that forms a uniform metal or alloy coating on the surface of a workpiece through electrolytic deposition. It is widely used in the automotive, electronics, aerospace and other fields to improve the corrosion resistance, conductivity and aesthetics of the workpiece. During the electroplating process, the electroplating rack serves as a key carrier connecting the power supply and the workpiece. If the rack design is unreasonable, it may lead to uneven coating distribution, poor contact with the workpiece, or even a short circuit, which directly affects production efficiency and product yield. Therefore, the flexibility and reliability of the rack are key links in optimizing the electroplating process.
[0003] At present, the hangers commonly used in the electroplating industry are mostly fixed designs, mainly including a main rod, a hook and a lifting rod. These hangers are usually equipped with several fixed hooks on both sides of the main rod for hanging the workpieces to be electroplated. Although this design is simple and practical, it has many inconveniences in actual operation. In particular, when processing workpieces of different sizes and shapes, the position and angle of the hooks cannot be flexibly adjusted, resulting in low work efficiency and easy damage to the workpieces.
[0004] In the related art, the existing hanger racks mainly include: 1. Fixed hook design: Most traditional electroplating racks use a fixed hook design, that is, the position and angle of the hook are pre-set and cannot be adjusted at will. The advantages are simple structure and low cost; the disadvantages are poor flexibility and unsuitable for the needs of various workpieces. Adjustable hook design: Some improved designs allow the hook to move within a certain range, but still cannot freely adjust the angle. This method improves some flexibility, but it is still not comprehensive enough. 2. Rotating hook design: A few designs use rotating hooks, but their load-bearing strength is poor and they are prone to deformation or falling off under heavy loads.
[0005] In summary, the technical defects of existing hangers mainly include: 1. The hook position and angle are fixed, which cannot meet the electroplating requirements of different types of workpieces; 2. Even if some designs allow a certain degree of adjustment, the load-bearing strength of the hook is often sacrificed, resulting in reduced safety and stability; 3. The overall structure is complex, maintenance is difficult, and production costs are increased. Summary of the Invention

During adjustment, the push rod 47 is pressed to move the limit toothed disc 46 into the second limit seat 44. At this time, the second limit seat 44 rotates in the first limit seat 43 until the hook 42 reaches an appropriate angle. Then, the push rod 47 is released, and the limit toothed disc 46 is reset under the elastic force of the reset member 48, and is clamped between the first limit seat 43 and the second limit seat 44 to lock them together. Then, the active disk 56 is driven to rotate by the servo motor 55, and the driven disk 54 is driven to rotate by the belt 57, so that the adjusting rod 51 can be synchronously linked.
