Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electroplating tank temperature control, in particular to an electroplating tank temperature control device. Background Art

[0002] Electroplating is the process of plating a thin layer of other metals or alloys on certain metal surfaces using the principle of electrolysis. It is a process that uses electrolysis to adhere a layer of metal film to the surface of metal or other material parts, thereby preventing metal oxidation (such as rust), improving wear resistance, conductivity, reflectivity, corrosion resistance (copper sulfate, etc.) and enhancing aesthetics. The electroplating tank is the core equipment in the electroplating process. It is used to contain the electroplating solution and bring the object to be plated into contact with the electrode to achieve electrochemical deposition. The type and design of the electroplating tank can vary according to different electroplating processes and application requirements.

[0003] During the electroplating process, the plating solution continuously generates heat in the electroplating reaction, thereby gradually increasing the temperature of the plating solution. When the temperature of the plating solution exceeds the process requirements, it has a great influence on the firmness, uniformity, flatness and appearance finish of the electroplated finished coating. Therefore, the heat dissipation of the electroplating temperature tank is very important. After the electroplating is completed, the plating solution is still attached to the surface of the electroplated parts. When the electroplated parts are taken out, the plating solution will drip onto the ground and cause pollution. If the electroplated parts are not dried in time, the quality of the electroplated parts will be reduced. Therefore, a plating tank temperature control device is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a temperature control device for an electroplating tank to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] A temperature control device for an electroplating tank comprises an electroplating tank body, wherein a bottom plate is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the electroplating tank body, a top frame fixedly connected to the top end of the electroplating tank body is provided above the bottom plate, an air inlet heat conduction pipe penetrating the electroplating tank body is fixedly connected to the inner side of the electroplating tank body, an air outlet heat conduction pipe perpendicular to the air inlet heat conduction pipe and penetrating the electroplating tank body is fixedly connected to one end of the air inlet heat conduction pipe, fixed plates are symmetrically provided on both sides of the electroplating tank body, and a blower fan penetrating the fixed plates is provided on one side of the fixed plates.

[0007] Preferably, a plurality of the air inlet heat conducting pipes and the air outlet heat conducting pipes are provided, and the air inlet heat conducting pipes and the air outlet heat conducting pipes are evenly distributed inside the electroplating tank body.

[0010] Preferably, the top end of the bearing is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the top frame, and the end of the connecting rod away from the threaded tube is fixedly connected to the fixing plate.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0012] 1. In the utility model, the inlet heat conduction pipe, outlet heat conduction pipe, fixed plate and blower fan are provided, so that the plating tank body can be cooled in time during the electroplating process to prevent the quality of the electroplated finished product from being reduced due to the excessively high temperature of the plating solution. The equipment is powered on before use. When the plating tank body needs to be cooled, the blower fan inside the fixed plate is started. The blower fan sends cold air from the outside into the inside of the inlet heat conduction pipe, and the cold air sends the heat of the device out through the outlet heat conduction pipe, thereby reducing the temperature of the plating tank body.

[0013] 2. In the utility model, the supporting rod, the hook and the fixing rod are provided to prevent the electroplating liquid on the surface of the electroplated parts from dripping onto the ground when the electroplated parts are taken out, thereby causing environmental pollution. During electroplating, the electroplated parts are hung on the outside of the fixing rod and the fixing rod is placed on the inside of the hook located below. After the electroplating is completed, the fixing rod is directly taken out from the inside of the hook located below and placed on the inside of the hook located above. At this time, the electroplating liquid on the surface of the electroplated parts can drip onto the inside of the electroplating tank body.

[0014] 3. In the utility model, the electroplated parts can be air-dried in time by means of the slide rails, sliders, threaded barrels, screw rods, bearings, rotating motors and connecting rods. After the electroplating is completed, the rotating motor is started, and the output end of the rotating motor rotates to drive the screw rod to rotate inside the bearing. Due to the limitation of the slide rails and sliders, the threaded barrel can move outside the screw rod, thereby driving the connecting rod, the fixing plate and the blower fan to move upward. At this time, the blower fan can air-dry the electroplated parts. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
