Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electroplating tanks, and in particular to a shunt tube. Background Art
[0002] During the electroplating process of diamond wire, when the plating solution enters the tank, if the fluctuation of the liquid level in the tank is large, it will affect the coating quality of the diamond wire. At present, the plating solution enters the tank through a hole in the lower part of a straight tube. This method causes the flow rate of the liquid outlet to be too high, which will form a torrent in the tank. Under the interference with the tank wall, a large surge will be formed on the liquid surface, thus affecting the coating quality of the diamond wire. In addition, due to the characteristics of the fluid flowing in the straight tube, the flow rate of the liquid outlet at the far end is much greater than that at the near end, causing the flow rate of some holes to be too large or too small, affecting the flow rate distribution in the entire tank. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to solve the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide a diverter tube capable of evenly inletting liquid.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solutions:
[0005] A shunt pipe is used for uniformly feeding liquid into a tank body. The shunt pipe is at least partially arranged in the tank body. The shunt pipe comprises a first pipeline and a second pipeline. The first pipeline is arranged in the tank body. A plurality of liquid outlet holes are arranged at the bottom of the first pipeline. The liquid outlet holes connect the first pipeline and the tank body. The second pipeline is at least partially arranged in the tank body. One end of the second pipeline is connected to the first pipeline. The connection between the second pipeline and the first pipeline is located on the left or right side of the first pipeline. The other end of the second pipeline is provided with a liquid inlet.
[0006] Furthermore, at least one second pipeline is provided, and along the extension direction of the first pipeline, the connection between the second pipeline and the first pipeline divides the first pipeline into equal parts.
[0007] Furthermore, the second pipeline is set as a bent pipe. When the second pipeline is set as a bent pipe, the second pipeline includes a liquid inlet pipe, a connecting pipe and a bending portion. The liquid inlet pipe is connected to the liquid inlet, the connecting pipe is connected to the first pipeline, and the liquid inlet pipe and the connecting pipe are connected through the bending portion.
[0008] Furthermore, the extending direction of the liquid inlet pipe is the same as the extending direction of the first pipeline, and the extending direction of the connecting pipe is perpendicular to the extending direction of the liquid inlet pipe.
[0009] Furthermore, when the second pipeline is a curved pipe, the liquid inlet is located at the front side or the rear side of the tank body.
[0010] Furthermore, the second pipeline is configured as a straight pipe. When the second pipeline is a straight pipe, the liquid inlet is located on the left side or the right side of the tank body.
[0011] Furthermore, there are two shunt pipes along the left and right directions of the tank body. The two shunt pipes are defined as a first shunt pipe and a second shunt pipe respectively. The first shunt pipe and the second shunt pipe are symmetrically arranged with respect to the left and right directions of the tank body.
[0012] Furthermore, a mounting opening is provided on the side wall of the tank body, the liquid inlet is located outside the tank body, and the second pipeline at least partially passes through the mounting opening.
[0013] Furthermore, one end of the first pipeline is fixedly connected to the tank body through the installation opening, the tank body includes a tank body bottom plate located at the bottom, and the other end of the first pipeline is fixedly connected to the tank body bottom plate.
[0014] Furthermore, the material of the diversion tube is set to be homopolymer polypropylene material.
[0015] The above-mentioned shunt pipe allows the liquid to enter the first pipeline after passing through the second pipeline and flow into the tank body through the liquid outlet hole, thereby reducing the flow rate of the liquid in the shunt pipe, so that the liquid in the shunt pipe can flow out evenly from each liquid outlet hole, achieving uniform liquid inflow into the shunt pipe.

[0022] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the technical solution in the specific implementation manner of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the implementation manner of the present application.
[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2A shunt pipe 100 is shown, which is mainly used for uniform liquid inflow into a tank body 200. The shunt pipe 100 is at least partially disposed in the tank body 200, and the shunt pipe 100 comprises a first pipeline 11, which is disposed in the tank body 200, and a plurality of liquid outlet holes 111 are disposed at the bottom of the first pipeline 11, which connect the first pipeline 11 and the tank body 200, so that liquid can flow into the tank body 200 from the liquid outlet holes 111 after passing through the shunt pipe 100. In order to clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present application, the following is also defined: Figure 1 The front side, rear side, left side, right side, top side and bottom side are shown. Specifically, the shunt pipe 100 in the present application is mainly used to add plating solution into the tank body 200 in the diamond wire plating process. When the plating solution enters the tank body 200, the fluctuation of the liquid level in the tank body 200 is large, which will affect the plating quality of the diamond wire. In the prior art, one end of the first pipeline 11 is a liquid inlet 121, and the liquid inlet 121 is connected to a liquid inlet pump for liquid inlet. The first pipeline 11 is set as a straight pipe, which causes the static pressure of the liquid in the first pipeline 11 far from the liquid inlet 121 to be large, so that the flow rate of the liquid at the far end of the liquid outlet 111 is too large, thereby forming a torrent in the tank body 200, resulting in a large surge of the liquid level in the tank body 200, which is not conducive to the plating of the diamond wire. In the present application, the shunt pipe 100 also includes a second pipeline 12, which is at least partially arranged in the tank body 200, one end of the second pipeline 12 is connected to the first pipeline 11, and the connection between the second pipeline 12 and the first pipeline 11 is located on the left or right side of the first pipeline 11, and the other end of the second pipeline 12 is provided with a liquid inlet 121. Through the above arrangement, the liquid enters the first pipeline 11 after passing through the second pipeline 12, and flows into the tank body 200 through the liquid outlet 111. When the liquid enters the first pipeline 11 from the second pipeline 12, the liquid will collide with the inner wall of the first pipeline 11, thereby reducing the flow rate of the liquid. When the liquid finally flows out from the liquid outlet 111, the flow rate of the liquid at each liquid outlet 111 is relatively uniform, so that the liquid in the diverter tube 100 can flow out evenly from each liquid outlet 111, thereby achieving uniform liquid inflow into the diverter tube 100, and thus avoiding the interference between the plating solution and the inner wall of the tank body 200 due to the too fast liquid flow rate at the liquid outlet 111, causing the liquid surface to surge, thereby improving the plating quality of the diamond wire.
[0024] Furthermore, the material of the shunt tube 100 is set to PPH material (PPH, Polyproplyene-Homo, homopolymer polypropylene material). PPH material is a high-quality material with excellent chemical corrosion resistance, wear resistance, high temperature resistance, high pressure resistance, corrosion resistance, aging resistance and good insulation, so it has a long service life and excellent reliability, and can effectively resist the corrosion of the plating solution.
[0025] like Figure 3As shown, there are two shunt pipes 100 along the left and right directions of the tank body 200, and the two shunt pipes 100 are defined as a first shunt pipe 101 and a second shunt pipe 102, respectively. The first shunt pipe 101 and the second shunt pipe 102 are symmetrically arranged about the left and right sides of the tank body 200. Through the above arrangement, two shunt pipes 100 are symmetrically arranged in the tank body 200, which can not only increase the liquid inlet speed in the tank body 200, thereby improving the working efficiency of the diamond wire coating, but also, compared with the liquid inlet of a single shunt pipe 100, the liquid inlet of two shunt pipes 100 can also allow the left and right sides of the tank body 200 to be filled with liquid, thereby reducing the surging of the liquid in the tank body 200 and avoiding affecting the coating process of the diamond wire.
[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the second pipeline 12 is configured as a curved pipe. When the second pipeline 12 is configured as a curved pipe, the second pipeline 12 includes a liquid inlet pipe 122, a connecting pipe 123 and a bending portion 124. One end of the liquid inlet pipe 122 is connected to the liquid inlet 121, the connecting pipe 123 is connected to the first pipeline 11, and the other end of the liquid inlet pipe 122 is connected to the connecting pipe 123 through the bending portion 124. Through the above configuration, the second pipeline 12 is configured as a curved pipe so that the flow direction of the liquid inside the second pipeline 12 is changed, thereby reducing the flow rate of the liquid in the second pipeline 12, so that the flow rate of the liquid when entering the first pipeline 11 from the second pipeline 12 is lower, thereby making the flow rate of the liquid in the first pipeline 11 more uniform, and the flow rate of the liquid from the first pipeline 11 through each liquid outlet 111 into the tank body 200 is also more uniform, thereby further improving the effect of uniform liquid inlet of the shunt pipe 100 and improving the coating quality of the diamond wire.
[0027] Furthermore, the extension direction of the liquid inlet pipe 122 is the same as the extension direction of the first pipeline 11, and the extension direction of the connecting pipe 123 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the liquid inlet pipe 122. When the second pipeline 12 is a curved pipe, the liquid inlet 121 is located at the front side or the rear side of the tank body 200. Through the above arrangement, the angle between the axis of the liquid inlet pipe 122 and the axis of the connecting pipe 123 is 90°, which not only reduces the flow rate of the liquid in the second pipeline 12, but also facilitates the connection between the liquid inlet 121 and the liquid inlet pump. In addition, due to the arrangement of the curved pipe of the second pipeline 12, the liquid inlet 121 on the first shunt pipe 101 and the second shunt pipe 102 can be arranged on the same side of the tank body 200, so that the liquid inlet pump connected to the liquid inlet 121 can also be arranged on the same side of the tank body 200, thereby facilitating the arrangement of the liquid inlet pump. It is understandable that the angle between the axis of the liquid inlet pipe 122 and the axis of the connecting pipe 123 can also be set to other angles. An angle greater than 0° and less than 180° can achieve the effect of reducing the liquid flow rate inside the second pipeline 12.
[0028] like Figure 4As shown, the second pipeline 12 can also be set as a straight pipe. Compared with the second pipeline 12 being set as a curved pipe, when the second pipeline 12 is a straight pipe, the structures of the second pipeline 12 and the first pipeline 11 are relatively simple, which is conducive to the arrangement of the second pipeline 12 and the first pipeline 11, and the second pipeline 12 occupies less space in the tank body 200, so that the tank body 200 can accommodate more liquid, which is conducive to the coating process of the diamond wire. In addition, when the second pipeline 12 is set as a straight pipe, the second pipeline 12 is usually set on the left and right sides, that is, the liquid inlet 121 is located on the left or right side of the tank body 200.
[0029] like Figure 5 As shown, at least one second pipeline 12 is provided, and along the extension direction of the first pipeline 11, the connection between the second pipeline 12 and the first pipeline 11 divides the first pipeline 11 into equal parts. When the second pipeline 12 is provided as one, the connection between the second pipeline 12 and the first pipeline 11 is located in the middle of the first pipeline 11, and the uniform liquid inlet effect of the single second pipeline 12 is in the best state. At this time, the liquid in the shunt pipe 100 can be distributed to each liquid outlet 111 more evenly, avoiding the problem of uneven flow distribution. When multiple second pipelines 12 are provided, multiple liquid inlets 121 can be fed simultaneously by multiple liquid inlet pumps, which can not only improve the liquid inlet efficiency, but also reduce the flow rate difference at the position of each liquid outlet 111, thereby achieving the effect of uniform liquid inlet.
[0030] like Figure 6 As shown, further, the tank body 200 is provided with a mounting port 21, the liquid inlet 121 is located outside the tank body 200, and the second pipeline 12 at least partially penetrates the mounting port 21. Further, one end of the first pipeline 11 is fixedly connected to the tank body 200 through the mounting port 21, the tank body 200 includes a tank body bottom plate 22 located at the bottom, and the other end of the first pipeline 11 is fixedly connected to the tank body bottom plate 22. Specifically, the other end of the first pipeline 11 is fixedly connected to the tank body bottom plate 22 by welding, and after the welding is completed, a gap is left between the first pipeline 11 and the tank body bottom plate 22 to avoid the distance between the first pipeline 11 and the tank body bottom plate 22 being too close to affect the liquid discharge of the liquid outlet 111. It can be understood that the size of the liquid outlet 111 and the size of the gap between the first pipeline 11 and the tank body bottom plate 22 can be changed according to the specific needs in actual production. Through the above arrangement, the first pipeline 11 and the tank bottom plate 22 are fixedly connected, which can improve the connection stability between the first pipeline 11 and the tank 200 to prevent the first pipeline 11 from shaking in the tank 200 and causing the liquid level in the tank 200 to surge, thereby avoiding affecting the plating quality of the diamond wire.
[0031] In addition, the diverter tube 100 structure provided in the present application has the characteristics of simple structure and easy assembly, and can be widely used in various tank bodies 200 that require smaller liquid level fluctuations to meet the uniform liquid inlet requirements of different tank bodies 200.
[0032] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or changes based on the above description, and all these improvements and changes should fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to this application.
