Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electroplating racks, and particularly relates to an electroplating rack for aviation sheet metal parts which is convenient to adjust. Background Art
[0002] An electroplating rack is an indispensable auxiliary tool in the electroplating process. It is mainly used to hang plating parts to ensure that the plating parts can be stably and evenly covered by the electroplating solution in the electroplating tank, so as to form a uniform coating. During the aircraft manufacturing process, a large number of sheet metal parts need to be electroplated to improve their corrosion resistance and aesthetics. Therefore, an electroplating rack is required to hang and load the aviation sheet metal parts to be electroplated to ensure that they can be stably immersed in the electroplating solution.
[0003] Most of the existing electroplating racks are of welded integral structure, which is difficult to be flexibly adjusted according to the shape and size of the electroplating workpiece. For electroplating workpieces of different specifications and types, it may be necessary to replace electroplating racks of different sizes and shapes. Moreover, once the hanging tool in the welded integral electroplating rack is damaged or fails, it usually needs to be replaced as a whole or complex repair work needs to be carried out. This not only increases the maintenance cost and time cost, but also may affect the production progress and efficiency.
[0004] For example, the electroplating rack disclosed in the patent with the publication number CN206512296U. The rectangular hanging frame in this patent is fixed on the vertical rod by welding. This fixed connection method makes it difficult to flexibly adjust the hanging frame in terms of height and direction. For workpieces of different sizes or shapes, it may be necessary to re - design or manufacture the entire rack instead of simply adjusting the position or quantity of the hanging frame, resulting in the electroplating rack lacking sufficient flexibility to adapt to different electroplating requirements, which limits the versatility and adaptability of the electroplating rack in different electroplating processes and scenarios.
[0005] Therefore, it is very necessary to invent an electroplating rack for aviation sheet metal parts which is convenient to adjust to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model
