In this specification, the schematic representation of the above terms does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner.
[0031] In the related technology, the traditional sardine nickel tank can only move up and down. Although the cost is low, due to the limitation of the swing, the high and low areas of the product are prone to different colors, the product is prone to bright spots due to air trapped in the water level, the potion use cycle is short, the processing cost is high, and the product scrap rate is high. The reason is that the swing trajectory of the traditional sardine nickel tank is fixed, which is difficult to adapt to workpieces of different shapes and sizes, and easily leads to uneven plating.
[0032] In view of this, the present application proposes a multi-dimensional swing mechanism and electroplating equipment, which can achieve three-dimensional swing, help improve the uniformity of plating, and effectively solve the above-mentioned problems.
[0033] In one aspect, the present application discloses a multi-dimensional swing mechanism. Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the multi-dimensional swing mechanism includes a swing component, and the swing component is used to drive the workpiece to realize multi-dimensional movement in the medicine tank 1.
[0034] Specifically, the swing assembly includes a fixed bracket 110, a swing structure 120 and a driving assembly 130. The fixed bracket 110 is arranged on one side of the medicine tank 1, the swing structure 120 is movably installed on the fixed bracket 110, and the driving assembly 130 is used to drive the swing structure 120 to swing in the X direction, the Y direction and the Z direction.
[0035] Among them, any two of the X direction, the Y direction and the Z direction are perpendicular to each other, and the swing structure 120 includes a support portion for fixing the workpiece. It is worth understanding that the X direction, the Y direction and the Z direction form a Cartesian coordinate system.
[0036] In the present application examples, see Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the length direction of the medicine tank 1 is parallel to the Y direction, the width direction of the medicine tank 1 is parallel to the X direction, and the height direction of the medicine tank 1 is parallel to the Z direction.
[0037] In the embodiment of the present application, the driving component 130 can drive the swing structure 120 to move in the X direction, Y direction and Z direction to drive the workpiece to move in the solution tank 1 along the X direction, Y direction and Z direction, thereby making the workpiece move three-dimensionally in the solution tank 1, which helps to improve the electroplating quality.
[0038] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the fixed bracket 110 includes a first roller 124, and the swing structure 120 includes a first bracket body 121 and at least two abutment portions 123 installed at intervals at the bottom of the first bracket body 121. The abutment portions 123 are arranged to be inclined relative to the horizontal plane, and a first roller 124 is arranged at the position corresponding to each abutment portion 123. By driving the abutment portions 123 and the first roller 124 to move relative to each other, the first bracket body 121 can be moved simultaneously along the X direction and the Z direction.
[0039] Specifically, the driving assembly 130 is used to drive the first roller 124 to rotate, and under the action of gravity, the first roller 124 drives the abutting portion 123 to move. Since the abutting surface 1231 where the abutting portion 123 abuts against the first roller 124 is an inclined surface, and the inclined surface is set at a certain angle with the horizontal plane, during the relative movement of the abutting portion 123 and the first roller 124, the abutting portion 123 will drive the first bracket body 121 to move along the X direction; at the same time, since the abutting surface 1231 is an inclined surface, during the movement of the abutting portion 123 along the X direction, it will also move along the Z direction. In this way, the driving assembly 130 can drive the first bracket body 121 to move along the X direction and the Z direction by driving the first roller 124 to move and by the cooperation between the first roller 124 and the abutting portion 123.
[0040] In the above embodiment, the first bracket body 121 can be driven to move in the X direction and the Z direction through the relative movement of the first roller 124 and the abutting portion 123. Compared with the solution of setting a driving structure to be responsible for the motion control in one direction, this embodiment can effectively simplify the structure of the multi-dimensional swing mechanism, reduce the setting of the driving structure, and help reduce the equipment cost. At the same time, the motion control logic of the multi-dimensional swing mechanism can be simplified to reduce the difficulty of maintenance.
[0041] It is worth to be understood that, in some other embodiments, the first roller 124 may also be replaced by a rotating shaft, a slider or other rolling devices, which is not limited here.
[0042] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figures 1 to 5As shown, the driving assembly 130 includes a first driving device 131, and the first driving device 131 includes a first driving member 1311 and a first transmission structure 1312. The first driving member 1311 is installed on the fixed bracket 110, and the first driving member 1311 drives the first bracket body 121 to move through the first transmission structure 1312. Specifically, the first bracket body 121 is connected to the fixed bracket 110 through the abutment portion 123 and the first roller 124, and the first driving member 1311 drives the first bracket body 121 to move through the first transmission structure 1312, and can drive the first bracket body 121 to move relative to the fixed bracket 110.
[0043] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the first transmission structure 1312 includes a first crankshaft 13121 and a first limiting portion 13122, one end of the first crankshaft 13121 is connected to the output end of the first driving member 1311, the first limiting portion 13122 is installed on the first bracket body 121, and the first limiting portion 13122 has a first movable groove for movably cooperating with the other end of the first crankshaft 13121, wherein the first movable groove extends along the Z direction.
[0044] Specifically, one end of the first crankshaft 13121 is disposed in the first movable groove, wherein the end of the first crankshaft 13121 located in the first movable groove abuts against the side walls of the first movable groove along the Z direction, and the end of the first crankshaft 13121 located in the first movable groove can move relatively in the first movable groove. By driving the first crankshaft 13121 to reciprocate, the end of the first crankshaft 13121 located in the first movable groove can be driven to move in the first movable groove along the Z direction.
[0045] It should be understood that the two side walls of the first movable groove are arranged at intervals along the X direction, and the first crankshaft 13121 is located at one end of the first movable groove and is arranged in the interval between the two side walls. In this way, as the first crankshaft 13121 rotates, it can simultaneously drive the first limiting portion 13122 to reciprocate along the X direction, and the first limiting portion 13122 is connected to the first bracket body 121, thereby being able to drive the first bracket body 121 to reciprocate along the X direction.
[0046] In the above embodiment, since the first movable groove extends along the Z direction, that is, one end of the first crankshaft 13121 located in the first movable groove can move along the Z direction, thus, when the first bracket body 121 moves along the Z direction under the action of the abutment portion 123 and the first roller 124, the first crankshaft 13121 and the first limiting portion 13122 will not interfere with each other.
[0047] In some other embodiments of the present application, the first bracket body 121 may also be driven to move by a connecting rod mechanism, which is not limited here.
[0048] In some embodiments of the present application, the first driving member 1311 is a motor. Specifically, the output end of the motor and the first crankshaft 13121 are both equipped with gears, and the two gears are connected by a chain, so that the motor can drive the first crankshaft 13121 to rotate through the chain.
[0049] Of course, in some other embodiments, the motor may also be connected to the first crankshaft 13121 through a reducer to drive the first crankshaft 13121 to rotate.

The second driving device 132 is used to drive the second bracket body 122 to move along the Y direction relative to the first bracket body 121.
[0051] In one possible implementation, see Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the slider 126 is specifically a second roller, and the slide rail 125 is slidably connected to the second roller.
[0052] In this embodiment, the overall outer contours of the first bracket body 121 and the second bracket body 122 are both rectangular, and abutment portions 123 are respectively provided at the four corners of the first bracket body 121, and a first roller 124 is provided at the corresponding position below the abutment portion 123; guide rails are respectively provided at the four corners of the second bracket body 122, and a second roller is provided under each guide rail.

The second driving member 1321 drives the second crankshaft 13221 to move, which can drive the second position-limiting portion 13222 to move along the Y direction, thereby driving the second bracket body 122 to move along the Y direction compared to the first bracket body 121.
[0055] In some embodiments of the present application, the second driving member 1321 is a motor. Specifically, the output end of the motor and the second crankshaft 13221 are both equipped with gears, and the two gears are connected by a chain, so that the motor can drive the second crankshaft 13221 to rotate through the chain.
[0056] Of course, the motor can also be connected to the second crankshaft 13221 through a reducer to drive the second crankshaft 13221 to rotate.
