Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0038] In the description of the present utility model, it should also be noted that unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the terms "set", "arrange", "connected", and "coupled" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific situations.
[0039] As Figures 1-4 shown, an electroplating tank that can be automatically opened and closed includes an electroplating tank main body 1, a controller host 2, a mounting edge 3, a slide rail 4, an opening and closing plate 5, a motor 6, a first pulley 7, a second pulley 8, a belt 9, a first connecting piece 10, and a second connecting piece 11. The controller host 2 is arranged on one side of the electroplating tank main body 1 and is used to control the entire electroplating process, including the adjustment of current, the setting of electroplating time, etc., to ensure the accuracy and consistency of electroplating operations. The mounting edge 3 is installed on the top of the electroplating tank main body 1, providing a stable mounting foundation for the slide rail 4 and the opening and closing plate 5, and at the same time protecting the edge of the electroplating tank from damage. There are two slide rails 4, and the two slide rails 4 are distributed along the two side frames on the top of the electroplating tank main body 1. There are two groups of opening and closing plates 5, and the two groups of opening and closing plates 5 are installed on the mounting edge 3 and are used to cover the top notch of the electroplating tank to prevent accidental contact between staff and it, as well as the mixing of other impurities. The motor 6 is installed on one side of one of the slide rails 4. The first pulley 7 is arranged on the mounting edge 3, and the top of the first pulley 7 is installed at the output end of the motor 6. The second pulley 8 is located in the extending direction of the side wheel surface of the first pulley 7. One end of the belt 9 is sleeved on the first pulley 7, and the other end of the belt 9 is sleeved on the second pulley 8 to achieve power transmission, enabling the opening and closing plate 5 to be opened and closed smoothly.
[0040] In this embodiment, as Figures 2-3 shown, one end of the first connecting piece 10 is sleeved on any one of the slide rails 4, and the other end of the first connecting piece 10 is in transmission connection with the belt 9. The second connecting piece 11 is located in the extending direction of the first connecting piece 10, and the other end of the second connecting piece 11 is in transmission connection with the belt 9. By moving on the slide rail 4, it drives the opening and closing plates 5 to move towards each other, realizing the opening and closing of the top of the electroplating tank. The structure of the opening and closing plate 5 includes: a first opening and closing page 51 is arranged between the two slide rails 4, the bottom of the first opening and closing page 51 is movably connected to one side of the two slide rails 4, the top of the second opening and closing page 52 is movably connected to the top of the first opening and closing page 51, and at least two glass windows 53 are respectively arranged on the first opening and closing page 51 and the second opening and closing page 52. The setting of the glass windows 53 facilitates the staff to observe the reaction situation inside the electroplating tank so as to make corresponding responses in real time. The second opening and closing page 52 of any one group of opening and closing plates 5 is connected to the first connecting piece 10, and the second opening and closing page 52 of the other group of opening and closing plates 5 is connected to the second connecting piece 11. When the connecting piece drives the second opening and closing page 52 to open, the second opening and closing page 52 will drive the first opening and closing page 51 to fold to achieve the opening effect. This folding and opening method will reduce the space occupied by the opening and closing plate 5, and there is no need to worry that its large occupied space will affect the normal operation of other equipment.
[0041] The electric drive rod 12 is horizontally installed inside the electroplating tank body 1. One end of the electric drive rod 12 is electrically connected to the controller mainframe 2. The titanium tube 13 is arranged at the bottom of the inner wall of the electroplating tank body 1 and serves as the anode to carry out an electrochemical reaction with the workpiece to achieve the electroplating operation. The water pump 14 is arranged on one side of the electroplating tank body 1. The water pump 14 is communicated with the electroplating tank body 1 and is used to circulate the electroplating solution to keep the temperature and concentration of the electroplating solution uniform.
[0042] It should be noted that for a kind of electroplating tank with automatic opening and closing designed by the present utility model, during use, only need to hang the workpiece to be electroplated on the electric drive rod 12, and then introduce the current into the workpiece through the controller mainframe 2 via the electric drive rod 12 to start the reaction with the titanium tube 13 for the electroplating operation. At this time, start the motor 6. The output end of the motor 6 rotates to drive the first pulley 7. The rotation of the first pulley 7 drives the second pulley 8 to rotate through the belt 9. At this time, the first connecting piece 10 and the second connecting piece 11 connected to the belt 9 will start to move on the same slide rail 4. Since the connection positions of the two connecting pieces with the belt 9 are not on the same straight line, that is, they are respectively connected to the two sides of the belt 9, therefore, the two connecting pieces will move towards each other in their respective directions. The opposite movement of the two connecting pieces will drive the second connecting piece 11 connected to each of them to drag the first opening page 51 to extend until it completely covers the top notch of the electroplating tank body 1, preventing accidental contact between the staff and it, as well as the mixing of other impurities.
[0043] Although the embodiments of the present utility model have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it is understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present utility model. The scope of the present utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
