[0002] Acid copper brightener is composed of a variety of surfactants, organic acids, inorganic acids, etc. It is a milky white, transparent, brown liquid. It is a chemical for cleaning, rust prevention and brightening the surface of materials. Since different materials require different brighteners and are combined with vibration grinding and finishing machines to achieve brightening effects, it is necessary to rely on the corresponding types of acid copper brighteners to process the surface of the material to form the required brightening effect. It has the advantages of improving the quality of the coating, improving the stability of the plating solution, and enhancing the corrosion resistance of the coating. It is suitable for a variety of materials. The acid copper brightener manufacturer needs to collect the finished acid copper brightener in a container, which is convenient for later packaging and shipment.

[0003] Most types of acid copper brighteners are toxic. The current use of automated devices to collect acid copper brighteners also requires manual monitoring of the entire processing site. Personnel need to walk around the production workshop to troubleshoot problems with production equipment and sample and inspect acid copper brighteners. The protective measures for aggregate equipment are not in place, and the discharge port lacks protective measures that are convenient for sampling and inspecting acid copper brighteners and for troubleshooting. Acid copper brighteners are prone to splashing when flowing out of the discharge port. There is no place to put work tools near the discharge port, and people need to use work tools close to the surface of the equipment. If people accidentally come into contact with the acid copper brightener, it will cause poisoning, and there are safety hazards during operation. Utility Model Content

[0013] Preferably, a robotic arm is installed at the upper left corner of the transparent box, and a camera is installed on the surface of the robotic arm.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model achieves the following beneficial effects:

[0015] The feed pipe, the liquid collecting valve and the liquid collecting pipe form multiple channels for inputting acid copper brightener into the transparent box separately. The acid copper brightener produced on the assembly line is drained into the corresponding liquid collecting pipe through the feed pipe. The liquid collecting valve is used to control and adjust the flow rate of the acid copper brightener flowing from the liquid collecting pipe into the inside of the collecting pipe. The multiple collecting pipes simultaneously collect the acid copper brightener through the one-way valve to the inside of the collecting pipe. When the discharge valve is closed, the collecting pipe sprays the acid copper brightener from the penetration hole into the transparent box for storage. The one-way valve can prevent the acid copper brightener from flowing back from the transparent box to the inside of the liquid collecting pipe. The acid copper brightener collected in the transparent box can be directly viewed by visually observing the transparent box to quickly know the storage status of the acid copper brightener.

When the acid copper brightener liquid level reaches the top in the transparent box, it can be sensed by the pressure sensor. The pressure sensor relies on the upward force of the floating block to sense that the acid copper brightener liquid level reaches the highest critical value in the transparent box. The pressure sensor automatically closes the liquid collecting valve to automatically stop the transparent box from collecting the acid copper brightener. After opening the discharge valve to empty the acid copper brightener in the transparent box, the acid copper brightener will be automatically restored and collected in the transparent box again.

Staff can remotely control the robotic arm to inspect and troubleshoot the equipment and assist in sampling and inspection of acid copper brightener to reduce poisoning caused by personal contact with acid copper brightener.

The collecting valves 16 are respectively connected to the pressure sensor 14 and the laser sensor 13 through the PLC signal. The four corners of the lower end of the transparent box 1 are fixed with support columns 2, and the support columns 2 support the four corners of the transparent box 1. The ring 15 connects the multiple collecting valves 16 into one body, and the ring 15 collects The liquid valve 16 is kept horizontally placed on the same horizontal plane, and the feed pipe 18, the liquid collecting valve 16, and the liquid collecting pipe 17 form multiple channels for inputting acid copper brightener into the transparent box 1. The one-way valve 19 connects the tail ends of multiple liquid collecting pipes 17 to the same position at the same time and passes through the inside of the collecting pipe 11. Multiple feed pipes are set to facilitate communication with the discharge positions of multiple assembly line production equipment. The feed pipe 18 is connected to the assembly line production equipment and the device. There is an air pressure difference between the assembly line production equipment and the device.

[0027] Working principle:

[0028] (i) The feed pipe 18, the liquid collecting valve 16, and the liquid collecting pipe 17 form multiple channels for inputting acid copper brightener into the transparent box 1. The one-way valve 19 connects the tail ends of multiple liquid collecting pipes 17 to the same position at the same time and passes through the inside of the collecting pipe 11. Multiple feed pipes are provided to facilitate communication with the discharge positions of multiple production line production equipment. The acid copper brightener produced on the production line is drained to the corresponding collecting pipe 17 through the feed pipe 18.

The acid copper brightener liquid level inside the transparent box 1 gradually decreases, and the height of the floating block 12 decreases as the acid copper brightener liquid level decreases. The floating block 12 can be raised and lowered along with the change of the acid copper brightener liquid level inside the transparent box 1, so as to provide an early warning of the acid copper brightener liquid level inside the transparent box 1;

[0031] (IV) The staff can directly observe the acid copper brightener collected in the transparent box 1 by visually observing the transparent box 1 to quickly know the storage situation of the acid copper brightener in the transparent box 1.
