Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electroplating tools, in particular to a universal electroplating hanger. Background Art

[0002] An electroplating hanger is a tool used in the electroplating process. When in use, a workpiece is hung on the electroplating hanger, and then the electroplating hanger together with the workpiece is placed into an electroplating tank. The existing electroplating hangers are divided into single-hook type and double-hook type. Among them, the single-hook type has only one hook, so there is no hook contact at the lower part of the material. Therefore, for materials with a longer length, the electroplating uniformity is poor, the material is prone to shaking, and if the hook fails, it will be extremely easy to cause the material not to be plated. The double-hook type has two hooks, so that both the upper and lower parts of each piece of material have hook contact for conduction.

[0003] However, the existing double-hook type electroplating hangers are all special types, that is, the distance between the upper and lower conductive hooks is relatively fixed. Therefore, they are not universal for materials with different lengths (models) of encapsulation. If forced to be universal, the conductive hooks may be between the leads, resulting in residual tin after the material is electroplated, and ultimately causing a short circuit when the customer uses it.

[0004] Therefore, during the production process, for materials with different models of encapsulation, it is necessary to separately customize corresponding double-hook type electroplating hangers, which is more troublesome to use, not convenient for management, increases the production cost, reduces the production efficiency, and is not conducive to actual production use.

[0039] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the specification and the specific implementation manners.

[0040] Embodiment:

[0041] As Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present application discloses a general electroplating hanger for supporting workpieces in an electroplating tank to complete electroplating. The specific structure includes: a frame 1, two guide rails 2, several sets of suspension mechanisms 3, and multiple hooks 4.

[0042] The frame 1 has a rectangular structure and is composed of multiple crossbars and vertical bars, with openings on the front and rear sides for easy material handling during actual production.

[0043] The two guide rails 2 are vertically arranged and are provided on both sides inside the frame 1. Preferably, they have transverse protrusions at both ends to expand the contact area with the frame 1 and improve the connection stability.

[0044] Several sets of suspension mechanisms 3 are arranged at intervals up and down inside the frame 1. Each set of suspension mechanisms 3 includes two support components 31 arranged at intervals up and down for electrically contacting the upper and lower parts of the material. The suspension mechanisms 3 are preferably set to two sets, but are not limited thereto, and can also be fewer or more, without specific limitation.

[0045] Specifically, each support component 31 includes: a conductive rod 311, multiple hooks 312, and two fasteners 313. Among them, the conductive rod 311 is horizontally arranged, and both ends are respectively slidably connected to the two guide rails 2 vertically. Multiple hooks 312 are evenly arranged on both sides of the conductive rod 311. The two fasteners 313 are respectively installed at both ends of the conductive rod 311 to lock and fix the conductive rod 311 and the guide rail 2.

[0046] The multiple hooks 4 are arranged at intervals and are provided at the top of the frame 1. The hooks 4 are preferably two and are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the top of the frame 1, but are not limited thereto, without specific limitation.

[0047] It should be noted that the frame 1, the guide rails 2, the suspension mechanisms 3, and the hooks 4 are all made of metal materials to ensure the conductive effect and enable tin ions to adsorb on products in each area.

[0048] During use, the frame 1 can be hung in the electroplating tank through the hooks 4 for easy disassembly and assembly, thereby improving production efficiency. Multiple products can be arranged side by side horizontally on each set of suspension mechanisms 3 to enable simultaneous electroplating, thereby greatly improving electroplating efficiency.

[0049] When placing the product, the conductive holes in the upper and lower parts of the product are respectively hung on the corresponding hooks 312 of the two support components 31 in each set of suspension mechanisms 3, which enables the product to maintain a vertical state and has two conductive contacts, increasing the plating uniformity and reducing the deformation of the material caused by shaking during electroplating.

[0050] When adjustment is needed, loosen the fasteners 313 at both ends of the conductive rod 311 on the support assembly 31 in a set of suspension mechanisms 3, so that the conductive rod 311 can move up and down along the guide rail 2; when the distance between the conductive rod 311 and the conductive rod 311 in another support assembly 31 of the same group is of appropriate size, re-fix the fasteners 313 at both ends to complete the adjustment.

[0051] Through the above settings, the hanger can be applied to electroplating of various materials with different lengths, and during electroplating, the conductive holes of the materials can be accurately aligned with the hooks 312, thus ensuring the fixing effect, improving the versatility, having simple operation, convenient management, reducing the production cost, improving the production efficiency, and being beneficial to actual production and use.

[0052] In some embodiments, as Figures 1 to 3 shown, a limiting slider 314 is provided at the end of the conductive rod 311, and a limiting chute 21 for the limiting slider 314 to slide up and down is opened on one side of the guide rail 2 close to the conductive rod 311, which improves the stability and smoothness of the vertical sliding connection between the conductive rod 311 and the guide rail 2.

[0053] Specifically, the guide rail 2 has an elongated plate-like structure, and its upper and lower ends and the outer side are welded to the frame 1, thereby improving the connection stability and enhancing the structural strength; the limiting slider 314 is in the shape of a rectangular block and is embedded in the limiting slider 314, playing a role of vertical guiding and ensuring the connection stability.

[0054] Based on the above embodiments, as Figures 3 to 5 shown, a movable through groove 22 is opened at the bottom of the limiting chute 21; the fastener 313 includes a screwing part 3131 and a stud 3132, the stud 3132 is arranged on one side of the screwing part 3131, and passes through the movable through groove 22 and is threadedly connected with the limiting slider 314.

[0055] Specifically, a threaded hole adapted to the stud 3132 is opened on the side surface of the limiting slider 314, and the threaded hole extends into the conductive rod 311 and is coaxially arranged, thereby improving the connection stability.

[0056] When fastening, the operator rotates the screwing part 3131 to make the stud 3132 screw into the limiting slider 314, so that the screwing part 3131 is closely attached to the side surface of the guide rail 2, thereby playing a role of locking and fixing by using the frictional force. And the movable through groove 22 plays a role of connection, avoiding the interference of the stud 3132 with the up and down sliding of the limiting slider 314.

[0057] Through the above settings, it is convenient for the operator to operate, improves the portability and adjustment efficiency, and has a simple and compact structure, which is convenient for production and manufacturing.

[0058] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 andFigure 2 As shown, the screwing part 3131 includes: a clamping block 3131a and two pushing blocks 3131b. The clamping block 3131a has a cylindrical structure and is coaxially arranged with the stud 3132; the two pushing blocks 3131b are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the clamping block 3131a.

[0059] Specifically, the side of the screwing part 3131 is made of bare titanium alloy, which can absorb part of the high-area current during electroplating to reduce the plating thickness of the materials on both sides of the hanger, thereby improving the plating uniformity.

[0060] Through the above settings, it is convenient for the operator to rotate and tighten or loosen the stud 3132. By adding the pushing blocks 3131b, it is convenient to apply force, thereby improving the locking stability and ensuring the use effect.

[0061] In some embodiments, as Figures 1 to 4 shown, it further includes:

[0062] A plurality of vertical plates 5, which are respectively arranged between the hook 4 and the frame 1; it is convenient for the device to be fully immersed in the electrolytic cell, improving the electroplating effect;

[0063] Several support plates 6, which are arranged horizontally and are respectively arranged between adjacent vertical plates 5; they are used to connect the vertical plates 5, thereby improving the structural stability.

[0064] On the basis of the above embodiments, as Figures 3 to 4 shown, it further includes:

[0065] Several partition rods 7, which are arranged vertically, with one end connected to the inner bottom of the frame 1 and the other end connected to the support plate 6, and are all slidably connected to each conductive rod 311.

[0066] Preferably, two partition rods 7 are provided and are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the frame 1; however, this is not limited thereto, and the number can be less or more, without specific limitation.

[0067] By setting the partition rods 7, the electroplating hanger conducts electricity from the original two sides to the middle; it is changed to conduct electricity from the middle to both sides, enabling the current to pass through the hanger evenly, making the current in each area of the hanger balanced, and further enabling the tin ions to be evenly adsorbed on the products in each area, thereby keeping the tin layer thickness uniform. It not only improves the appearance quality of the products but also improves the performance of the products.

[0068] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown, a guide sleeve 315 is provided on the conductive rod 311, and the guide sleeve 315 is movably sleeved on the partition rod 7.

[0069] By setting the guide sleeve 315, the conductive rod 311 and the partition rod 7 are stably slidably connected, improving the conductive stability and playing a role in vertical limit guidance, thus improving the stability of the up-and-down movement.

[0070] Preferably, the non-essential areas of the hanging rack are all wrapped with insulating glue, while the hook 4 does not need to be wrapped, thereby improving the electroplating stability.

[0071] In the description of this utility model, a large number of specific details are illustrated. However, it can be understood that the embodiments of this utility model can be practiced without these specific details. In some instances, well-known methods, structures, and technologies are not shown in detail so as not to obscure the understanding of this specification.

[0072] In the description of this specification, the description with reference to terms such as "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "example", "specific example", or "some examples" means that the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described in connection with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of this utility model.

In addition, without contradiction, those skilled in the art can combine and combine the different embodiments or examples described in this specification and the features of different embodiments or examples.

[0073] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit them; although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model, and they should all be covered by the scope of the claims and the specification of this utility model.
