[0002] The electroplating process can significantly reduce the production cost of the electroplated parts and has a good application prospect. In the existing electroplating process, the electroplating clamp is generally used to clamp the electroplated parts.

[0003] Traditional electroplating clamps require reserved plating clamping points on the workpiece to be plated. Therefore, the size of the contact pad points of the workpiece to be plated needs to be increased. That is, the pad or main grid of the workpiece to be plated needs to be increased, thereby increasing the area of ​​the workpiece to be plated that is blocked from light, resulting in a decrease in the power generation efficiency of the workpiece to be plated. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the utility model provides an electroplating clamp and an electroplating hanger to solve the problem that the existing electroplating clamps need to reserve electroplating clamping points on the workpieces to be electroplated when clamping the workpieces to be electroplated, which increases the shielding area of ​​the workpieces to be electroplated from light and leads to low power generation efficiency of the workpieces to be electroplated.

[0009] Beneficial effect: In the clamping state, since the conductive needles of the utility model are elastic and regularly arranged, the needle tips of the multiple conductive needles of the multiple clamping jaws jointly form a clamping blind spot, that is, a large-scale multi-point contact. Therefore, only some of the conductive needles need to abut against the original main grid of the workpiece to be electroplated to achieve clamping and conduction of the workpiece to be electroplated. There is no need to reserve plating clamping points on the workpiece to be electroplated, which reduces the shielding area of ​​the workpiece to be electroplated from light, which is beneficial to improving the power generation efficiency of the workpiece to be electroplated.

[0018] In an optional embodiment, the clamping jaw is detachably connected to the clamping arm.

[0019] Beneficial effects: The clamping jaws and the clamping arms are detachably connected, which facilitates the maintenance and replacement of the clamping jaws and helps to increase the service life of the electroplating clamp.

[0020] In an optional embodiment, it further includes a connecting plate, which is connected to the multiple clamping arms in sequence, and the multiple clamping claws are arranged on the connecting plate and are arranged one by one corresponding to the multiple clamping arms.

[0021] Beneficial effect: By arranging a connection plate to connect multiple clamp arms in sequence, and arranging multiple clamp claws on the connection plate, which are arranged one by one corresponding to the multiple clamp arms, the connection strength between the clamp arms and the clamp claws can be improved.

[0022] In an optional embodiment, one end of each clamping arm away from the clamping plate is bent to form an extension portion, and the connecting plate is connected to the plurality of extension portions in sequence so that the clamping claw forms an angle with the clamping arm.

[0023] Beneficial effect: One end of each clamp arm away from the clamp plate is bent to form an extension portion, the connecting plate is connected to the multiple extension portions in sequence, and the extension portion is used to install the connecting plate.

[0024] In an optional embodiment, the clamping parts are arranged in pairs, and the multiple clamping claws of the two clamping parts are arranged opposite to each other and can move relatively to each other to clamp or release the workpiece to be electroplated.

[0025] Beneficial effect: The paired clamping parts move closer to each other, which can drive the oppositely arranged clamping claws to clamp the workpiece to be electroplated. At the same time, the two clamping plates are pressed against the two sides of the workpiece to be electroplated to fix and clamp the workpiece to be electroplated. At least part of the conductive needles abut against the main grid of the workpiece to be electroplated to achieve conductivity. The paired clamping parts move away from each other, which can drive the oppositely arranged clamping claws and clamping plates to release the workpiece to be electroplated.

[0027] Beneficial effect: The clamping part is made of stainless steel to form a flexible plate. The elasticity of stainless steel is used to maintain a suitable clamping force to stably and effectively clamp the workpiece to be electroplated, avoid the workpiece to be electroplated from breaking, and at the same time maintain the power generation performance of the workpiece to be electroplated.

[0028] In a second aspect, the utility model further provides an electroplating hanger, comprising: the above-mentioned electroplating clip.

[0042] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiment of the utility model clearer, the technical solution in the embodiment of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0043] In view of the existing electroplating clamps clamping the workpiece to be electroplated, it is necessary to reserve electroplating clamping points on the workpiece to be electroplated, which increases the shielding area of ​​the workpiece to be electroplated from light, resulting in the problem of low power generation efficiency of the workpiece to be electroplated. The embodiment of the utility model adopts multiple conductive needles that are elastic and regularly arranged to form a clamping blind spot, and abut against the main grid of the workpiece to be electroplated. There is no need to reserve electroplating clamping points on the workpiece to be electroplated, which reduces the shielding area of ​​the workpiece to be electroplated from light and improves the power generation efficiency of the workpiece to be electroplated.

[0044] Combine the following Figures 1 to 9 , describing an embodiment of the utility model.

[0045] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, on the one hand, as Figure 1As shown, a plating clamp is provided, which mainly includes: a clamping part 1. The bottom of the clamping part 1 is provided with a plurality of clamping jaws 2 spaced apart along its length direction. Each clamping jaw 2 is provided with a plurality of conductive needles 201 arranged regularly, and the conductive needles 201 are elastic, and the needle tips of the plurality of conductive needles 201 of the plurality of clamping jaws 2 jointly form a clamping blind spot. The plating clamp has a clamping state, and in the clamping state, at least part of the conductive needles 201 are suitable for abutting against the main grid of the workpiece to be electroplated.

[0046] The electroplating clamp provided by the embodiment of the utility model is in a clamping state. Since the conductive needles 201 are elastic and regularly arranged, the needle tips of the multiple conductive needles 201 of the multiple clamping jaws 2 jointly form a clamping blind spot, that is, a large-scale multi-point contact is formed. Therefore, only part of the conductive needles 201 need to abut against the original main grid of the workpiece to be electroplated to achieve clamping and conduction of the workpiece to be electroplated. There is no need to reserve electroplating clamping points on the workpiece to be electroplated, which reduces the shielding area of ​​the workpiece to be electroplated from light, which is beneficial to improving the power generation efficiency of the workpiece to be electroplated.

[0047] Specifically, each conductive needle 201 can work independently. The conductive wire can be made of metal material. For example, elastic steel wire has good processability and high structural strength. The conductive wire is elastic and can be elastically deformed to offset the redundant clamping force applied by the clamping part 1 to the electroplated part. In addition, the conductive wire that is not in contact with the main grid of the electroplated part is deformed to avoid damaging the electroplated part. The length direction of the clamping part 1 is as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown by arrow B in FIG.

[0048] According to the embodiment of the present invention, the conductive pins 201 have multiple arrangements.

[0049] Form 1:

[0050] In one embodiment, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, each clamping jaw 2 is plate-shaped. One end of the clamping jaw 2 is connected to the clamping portion 1, and a plurality of conductive needles 201 are provided at the other end, and the plurality of conductive needles 201 are arranged in a matrix. Figure 3 As shown, the conductive needles 201 form two rows arranged vertically. The plate-shaped clamping jaws 2 facilitate the arrangement of the conductive needles 201 arranged in a matrix, so as to expand the length range of the clamping blind spot, facilitate the clamping and conduction of the workpiece to be electroplated, and do not require the conductive needles 201 to accurately locate the main grid of the workpiece to be electroplated, and also facilitate the clamping and conduction of the clamping jaws 2 and the workpiece to be electroplated.

[0051] Form 2:

[0052] In one embodiment, Figures 6 to 9As shown, each clamping jaw 2 is cylindrical. One end of the clamping jaw 2 is connected to the clamping portion 1, and a plurality of conductive needles 201 are arranged in a ring at the other end. The cylindrical clamping jaw 2 is conducive to the arrangement of the conductive needles 201 arranged in a ring, so as to expand the range of the clamping blind spot corresponding to each clamping jaw 2. Specifically, one end of the clamping jaw 2 can be detachably connected to the clamping portion 1, or can be integrally formed with the clamping portion 1.

[0053] It is understandable that in some other embodiments, the arrangement of the conductive needles 201 may also be other conventional arrangements according to the main grid structure of the component to be electroplated, and the embodiments of the present invention do not impose too many restrictions on this.

[0054] In one embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the clamping part 1 mainly includes: a clamping plate 101 and a plurality of clamping arms 102. The plurality of clamping arms 102 are arranged at intervals at the bottom of the clamping plate 101 along the length direction of the clamping plate 101, and a clamping claw 2 is provided at the end of each clamping arm 102. The clamping plate 101 and the plurality of clamping arms 102 can be integrally formed for easy use. The clamping plate 101 is used to carry the plurality of clamping arms 102, and the plurality of clamping arms 102 are used to support the plurality of clamping claws 2. The plurality of clamping arms 102 are arranged at intervals at the bottom of the clamping plate 101 along the length direction of the clamping plate 101, and are adapted to the plate-shaped parts to be electroplated for easy use.

[0055] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the clamping jaw 2 is detachably connected to the clamping arm 102. This facilitates maintenance and replacement of the clamping jaw 2, and helps to increase the service life of the electroplating clamp. The detachable connection between the clamping jaw 2 and the clamping arm 102 can be a snap-on connection, such as a slot and a buckle, which is convenient for installation, or a fastener-type connection, such as a bolt connection, which is stable.

[0056] Furthermore, in one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the electroplating clamp further includes a connecting plate 3. The connecting plate 3 is connected to the plurality of clamp arms 102 in sequence, and the plurality of clamp jaws 2 are arranged on the connecting plate 3 and are arranged one-to-one with the plurality of clamp arms 102. By arranging the connecting plate 3 to connect the plurality of clamp arms 102 in sequence, and arranging the plurality of clamp jaws 2 on the connecting plate 3 and being arranged one-to-one with the plurality of clamp arms 102, the connection strength between the clamp arms 102 and the clamp jaws 2 can be improved.

[0057] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, the clamping jaw 2 can be integrally formed with the connecting portion, and the two groups of connecting plates 3 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower surfaces of the bottom end of the clamping arm 102 through fasteners to form a structure of two rows of conductive pins 201. The fasteners can be bolts. The installation method is simple and convenient for installation and use.

[0058] In one embodiment, Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, one end of each clamp arm 102 away from the clamp plate 101 is bent to form an extension portion 1021, and the connecting plate 3 is sequentially connected to the plurality of extension portions 1021. The extension portions 1021 are used to install the connecting plate 3. The clamping jaw 2 forms an angle with the clamping arm 102, so that the conductive pin 201 on the clamping jaw 2 can abut against the main grid on the side of the workpiece to be electroplated when the clamp plate 101 clamps the workpiece to be electroplated.

[0059] In one embodiment, the clamping parts 1 are arranged in pairs, and the multiple jaws 2 of the two clamping parts 1 are arranged opposite to each other and can move relative to each other to clamp or release the workpiece to be electroplated. The paired clamping parts 1 move closer to each other, which can drive the jaws 2 arranged opposite to each other to clamp the workpiece to be electroplated. At the same time, the clamping plate 101 is pressed against both sides of the workpiece to be electroplated to fix and clamp the workpiece to be electroplated. At least part of the conductive needles 201 abut against the main grid of the workpiece to be electroplated to achieve conductivity. The paired clamping parts 1 move away from each other, which can drive the jaws 2 and the clamping plate 101 arranged opposite to each other to release the workpiece to be electroplated.

[0060] Specifically, the pair of clamping plates 101 may be connected by a pivot structure, and the two can rotate relative to each other at one end away from the clamping jaws 2, so that the pair of clamping jaws 2 move closer to or farther away from each other.

[0061] In one embodiment, the clamping part 1 is made of stainless steel to form a flexible plate. The elasticity of stainless steel is used to maintain a suitable clamping force to stably and effectively clamp the workpiece to be electroplated, prevent the workpiece to be electroplated from breaking, and maintain the power generation performance of the workpiece to be electroplated. Specifically, the clamping part 1 is made by etching process, and the conductive needle 201 reaches the fineness of a needle tip or a burr tip.

[0062] Of course, in some other embodiments, the clamping portion 1 can also be made of other conventional materials, and the embodiments of the present utility model do not impose too many restrictions on this.

[0063] In order to realize the basic functions of the electroplating clamp, the electroplating clamp in this embodiment may also include other necessary modules or components, such as rotating parts, fasteners, etc. It should be noted that the other necessary modules or components included in the electroplating clamp can be selected from any suitable existing structures. In order to clearly and briefly explain the technical solution provided by this embodiment, the above-mentioned parts will not be repeated here, and the drawings in the specification are also simplified accordingly. However, it should be understood that the scope of the utility model is not limited by this.

[0064] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, on the other hand, a plating rack is provided, comprising: the above-mentioned plating clamp.

[0065] Because the electroplating rack includes an electroplating clamp, it has the same effect as the electroplating clamp, that is, in the clamping state, since the conductive needles 201 are elastic and regularly arranged, the needle tips of the multiple conductive needles 201 of the multiple clamping jaws 2 jointly form a clamping blind spot, that is, a large-scale multi-point contact is formed. Therefore, only part of the conductive needles 201 need to abut against the original main grid of the workpiece to be electroplated to achieve clamping and conduction of the workpiece to be electroplated, and there is no need to reserve electroplating clamping points on the workpiece to be electroplated, which reduces the shielding area of ​​the workpiece to be electroplated from light, which is conducive to improving the power generation efficiency of the workpiece to be electroplated.

[0066] Specifically, the electroplating rack can be used in an electroplating process production line to clamp the parts to be electroplated, which can be photovoltaic cells.
