Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of metal electroplating, and particularly relates to an electroplating anode device and an electroplating device. Background Art
[0002] Electroplating is the process of plating a thin layer of other metals or alloys on the surface of certain metals by using the electrolysis principle, and it is a process of making the surface of metal or other material parts adhere to a metal film by using electrolysis. During electroplating, the coating metal or other insoluble materials are used as anodes, and the workpieces to be plated are used as cathodes. The cations of the coating metal are reduced on the surface of the workpieces to be plated to form a coating. To exclude the interference of other cations and make the coating uniform and firm, a solution containing cations of the coating metal is used as the electroplating solution to keep the concentration of the cations of the coating metal unchanged. The purpose of electroplating is to deposit a metal coating on the substrate to change the surface properties or dimensions of the substrate. Electroplating can enhance the corrosion resistance of metals, increase hardness, prevent wear, improve electrical conductivity, smoothness, heat resistance and surface aesthetics.
[0003] In the existing electroplating treatment device, the anode plate is generally directly fixed on the anode housing, and it is impossible to well ensure the distance and parallelism between the metal plates. When the workpiece to be electroplated passes through the gap between the anode plates, the unreasonable distance and parallelism are likely to cause uneven electroplating, reducing the yield. Moreover, the existing anode plate cannot be disassembled. When the metal layer on the anode plate is consumed, it needs to be replaced as a whole, which is very troublesome.

A number of first assembly holes 11 are arrayed at the central position along the length direction of the assembly part.
[0049] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, the mounting structure 2 includes a first mounting member 21 and a second mounting member 22. The bottom end of the first mounting member 21 is a mounting base 211. The mounting base 211 is a horizontally mounted plate, and the length of the mounting base 211 is shorter than the length of the bottom plate of the conductive base frame 1. A number of second assembly holes are also arrayed along the length direction of the mounting base 211. A mounting portion 212 is vertically fixed on each of the two long sides of the mounting base 211. The mounting portion 212 is a vertically placed plate. The two mounting portions 212 and a mounting base 211 form a U-shaped structure. A number of insertion slots 213 are vertically formed on the mounting portion 212. The number of insertion slots 213 is arrayed at intervals along the length direction. The number of insertion slots 213 on the two mounting portions 212 is symmetrically arranged, and the interval distance between any two adjacent insertion slots 213 on the same mounting portion 212 is the same.

Two first mounting slots 321 are provided corresponding to the two mounting portions 212 on one side of the third mounting member 32 close to the mounting portion 212, and first mounting holes 322 are respectively provided corresponding to the second mounting holes 222 on both sides of the third mounting member 32.
[0051] When assembling the electroplating anode device, first assemble the mounting structure 2. A number of second mounting members 22 are respectively inserted into the insertion slots 213 of the mounting portion 212 in a one-to-one correspondence. Specifically, the two second mounting slots 221 on the second mounting member 22 are respectively inserted into the corresponding two insertion slots 213 to mount the second mounting member 22 on the mounting portion 212, ensuring that the second mounting member 22 is vertically mounted. After the installation is completed, the distance between any two adjacent second mounting members 22 is the same, and any two second mounting members 22 are parallel to each other. Next, mount the mounting structure 2 on the conductive base frame 1.

At this time, the second assembly holes on the mounting base 211 and the first assembly holes 11 on the conductive base frame 1 are correspondingly arranged to form an assembly channel. Use bolts to penetrate the assembly channel to mount the mounting structure 2 on the conductive base frame 1. Finally, insert the two first mounting slots 321 on the third mounting member 32 into the two mounting portions 212 respectively. A number of third mounting members 32 and a number of second mounting members 22 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. Any one of the third mounting members 32 is arranged on the left or right side of the second mounting member 22, ensuring that the interval between any two anode members 31 is the same. At this time, the two first mounting holes 322 on each third mounting member 32 are arranged opposite to the two second mounting holes 222 of the corresponding second mounting member 22 to form an installation channel. Use bolts to penetrate the installation channel to fix the anode mounting structure 3 on the mounting structure 2. At this time, the anode mounting structure 3 is completed, and the entire anode member 31 is in a vertical state. By using the precise slot design on the third mounting member 32 and the second mounting member 22 and the U-shaped slot setting of the first mounting member 21, the three are mounted together, ensuring the parallelism between the anode members 31 after installation, which can effectively improve the production capacity. And it ensures the flatness of the anode member 31, can accurately control the distance between adjacent anode members 31, and improves the product output. By fixing the second mounting member 22 and the third mounting member 32 in an array on the first mounting member 21, ensuring that the distance between any two adjacent anode members 31 is the same, improving the uniformity of electroplating and the yield rate. Moreover, the mounting structure 2 and the anode mounting structure 3 are detachable structures. When the electroplated metal coating on the anode member 31 is consumed, the bolts can be removed, so that the anode mounting structure 3 can be removed from the mounting structure 2 for repair without replacing the whole, reducing the maintenance cost.
[0052] In other feasible embodiments, there are three installation methods for the third mounting member 32 and the first mounting slot 321. The first method is to only open the first mounting slot 321 on the third mounting member 32 without opening a mounting slot on the first mounting member 21; the second method can be that no mounting slot is opened on the third mounting member 32, and a mounting slot is opened on the first mounting member 21; the third method is to open mounting slots on both the third mounting member 32 and the first mounting member 21, and the two are inserted into each other.
[0053] The third mounting member 32 is for sheet metal processing. The third mounting member 32 and the anode member 31 are connected by welding, which is easy to fit onto the anode member 31, ensuring accurate installation and reducing the distance requirement between the anode meshes.
[0054] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, the anode member 31 is provided with a mesh plate structure, which is convenient for the flow of the electroplating solution, improves the uniformity of metal ions in the solution, and thus achieves the effect of improving the electroplating uniformity; the surface of the anode member 31 is coated with a noble metal coating to maintain the activity of the anode member 31. During the production process, there is loss, so the electroplated metal coating has a certain service life. Using the above installation structure 2 and anode installation structure 3, which are detachable structures. When the electroplated metal coating on the anode member 31 is completely worn out, the bolts can be removed, and then the anode installation structure 3 can be removed from the installation structure 2 for repair, without replacing the whole, reducing the maintenance cost.
[0055] In this embodiment, the material of the conductive base frame 1 is made of titanium-clad copper material. The use of titanium-clad copper material reduces the resistance value of the conductor on the premise of ensuring corrosion resistance, ensuring that the electric fields of all anode meshes are consistent; the conductive base frame 1 is designed in a U shape, and the power connection part can be led out of the electroplating liquid surface; bilateral conduction can further improve the consistency of the electric fields between all anode meshes.
[0056] In other feasible embodiments, as Figure 4 shown, and through holes are also provided between any two adjacent insertion slots 213 on one mounting portion 212, which reduces the weight of the whole device, is convenient for the flow of the electroplating solution, improves the uniformity of metal ions in the solution, and thus achieves the effect of improving the electroplating uniformity.
[0057] The working principle of the electroplating anode device provided in this embodiment is specifically as follows:
[0058] First, assemble the mounting structure 2. The two second mounting grooves 221 on several second mounting members 22 are respectively inserted into the corresponding two insertion grooves 213 to mount the second mounting members 22 on the mounting portion 212, ensuring that the second mounting members 22 are vertically mounted. After the installation is completed, the distance between any two adjacent second mounting members 22 is the same, and any two second mounting members 22 are parallel to each other. Next, mount the mounting structure 2 on the conductive base frame 1. Lay the mounting structure 2 along the length direction of the conductive base frame 1 on the upper surface of the conductive base frame 1. At this time, the second assembly holes on the mounting base 211 and the first assembly holes 11 on the conductive base frame 1 are correspondingly arranged to form an assembly channel. Use bolts to penetrate the assembly channel to mount the mounting structure 2 on the conductive base frame 1. Finally, the two first mounting grooves 321 on the third mounting member 32 are respectively inserted into the two corresponding mounting portions 212. Several third mounting members 32 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with several second mounting members 22. Use bolts to penetrate the mounting channel to fix the anode mounting structure 3 on the mounting structure 2.
