[0002] As a basic component of electronic products, the structure of a PCB board is composed of multiple layers of conductor materials and insulating materials stacked together. The conductor material is copper and is attached to the insulating board by electroplating, and then processes such as etching are carried out for circuit drawing.
[0003] A copper immersion plating device for PCB boards is disclosed in the prior art. This device has a plating tank body, a top cover is hinged at the upper end of the plating tank body, a bracket is arranged on the side wall inside the plating tank body, electrolytic raw materials are arranged on the bracket, a hanging basket is arranged inside the plating tank body, and a cylinder is arranged at the lower end of the plating tank body. The output shaft of the cylinder penetrates through the lower end of the plating tank body. By the combined use of the cylinder and the hanging basket, the installation and taking efficiency of the PCB board is greatly improved, and the PCB board is convenient to replace.
[0004] However, this device still has some defects. In this device, the PCB board is statically placed in the electroplating box. Since the PCB board is statically placed, when the PCB board is only placed in the electroplating box, the flow of the electroplating solution on the PCB board may not be uniform enough, resulting in uneven current distribution, which will lead to a decrease in the uniformity of the electroplating layer. Especially on the hole walls and bottoms of the PCB board, the coverage of the copper layer may be uneven, thus affecting the connection quality of the subsequent circuit.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a copper immersion plating device for PCB boards to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Utility Model
[0006] In view of the above situation, to overcome the defects of the prior art, the utility model provides a copper immersion plating device for PCB boards. Through the combined use of multiple parts in the provided adjusting component, the push plates at both ends in the electroplating box can move towards each other. By the opposite movement of the push plates, the flow of the electroplating solution in the electroplating box can be promoted, so that the current is more evenly distributed on the PCB board. This is beneficial to ensuring that the electroplating layer thicknesses at different parts are consistent and avoiding electroplating defects caused by uneven current distribution.
[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the utility model is as follows:
[0008] PCB board copper deposition electroplating device, comprising: an electroplating assembly, an adjustment assembly, and an auxiliary frame. The electroplating assembly includes an electroplating tank, and electroplating solution is provided inside the electroplating tank. The adjustment assembly includes two driving motors installed on the side ends of the electroplating tank. The two driving motors are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the electroplating tank. A bidirectional screw is further installed at the output ends of the two driving motors. The two bidirectional screws are installed on both sides of the inner cavity of the electroplating tank. A moving seat is jointly carried on the two bidirectional screws. A push plate is assembled at the lower end of the moving seat. The auxiliary frame includes an electroplating rack, and clamping grooves are installed on both sides inside the electroplating rack.
[0009] Preferably, the clamping grooves provided on the electroplating rack are arranged in an array distribution, and a plurality of through holes are provided on both sides of each clamping groove. The plurality of through holes penetrate through both sides of the clamping groove in an array.
[0010] Preferably, handles are further installed on both sides of the upper end of the electroplating rack. The handles and the electroplating rack are integrally welded.
[0011] Preferably, a positioning cavity is further provided at the upper end of the moving seat. Convex blocks are formed at both ends of the push plate. The push plate is clamped in the positioning cavity provided on the moving seat through the convex blocks at both ends.
[0012] Preferably, the positioning cavity provided on the moving seat is fitted with the push plate, and the push plate is detachably installed on the moving seat by means of a plug pin.
[0013] Preferably, a limiting groove is further provided in the inner cavity of the electroplating tank. The entire electroplating rack is fitted into the limiting groove provided on the electroplating tank.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] (1) By the cooperative use of multiple parts in the adjustment assembly provided in the utility model, the push plates at both ends inside the electroplating tank can move towards each other. Compared with the traditional method of statically placing the PCB board in the electroplating tank, the movement of the push plates towards each other can promote the flow of the electroplating solution in the electroplating tank, so that the current is more evenly distributed on the PCB board. This is beneficial to ensuring that the thickness of the electroplating layer at different parts is consistent and avoiding electroplating defects caused by uneven current distribution.
[0016] (2) By the cooperation of the electroplating rack and the through holes provided on both end faces of the clamping grooves in the utility model, during use, the PCB board can be limited and fixed through the clamping grooves provided at both ends of the electroplating rack. By placing the entire electroplating rack into the electroplating tank until the electroplating solution is still, at this time, in cooperation with the use of the push plates at both ends, the movement of the push plates towards each other can promote the flow of the electroplating solution in the electroplating tank, so that the current is more evenly distributed on the PCB board. At the same time, in cooperation with the through holes provided at both ends of the clamping grooves, it is possible to prevent clamping dead corners from occurring in the clamping areas at both ends of the PCB board and ensure complete electroplating of the PCB board.
[0017] (3) In this utility model, through the provided electroplating rack and handle, during use, the staff can place and retrieve the electroplating rack only by using the handle, which can prevent the staff from touching the electroplating solution. Since the metal ions and other chemical substances contained in the electroplating solution may cause irritation to the skin of the operator or more serious health problems, by using the handle, direct contact with the electroplating solution can be avoided, reducing the occurrence of skin problems.

The two bidirectional screws 202 are installed on both sides of the inner cavity of the electroplating tank 101. A moving seat 203 is jointly carried on the two bidirectional screws 202. A push plate 204 is assembled at the lower end of the moving seat 203. The auxiliary frame 300 includes an electroplating rack 301, and card slots 302 are installed on both sides inside the electroplating rack 301. During actual use, the staff first place the PCB boards into the electroplating rack 301 in sequence, limit the PCB boards through the card slots 302 provided on both sides of the electroplating rack 301, and then place the electroplating rack 301 into the electroplating tank 101 until the electroplating solution is still to the electroplating rack 301. At this time, the staff starts the drive motor 201. Through the drive of the drive motor 201, the moving seats 203 at both ends are driven to move towards each other. Through the opposite movement of the moving seats 203, the push plates 204 move towards each other.

[0026] Through the combined use of multiple parts in the adjustment assembly 200 provided, the push plates 204 at both ends in the electroplating tank 101 can be made to move towards each other. Compared with the traditional method of statically placing the PCB board in the electroplating tank 101, the opposite movement of the push plates 204 can promote the flow of the electroplating solution in the electroplating tank 101, so that the current is more evenly distributed on the PCB board. This is beneficial to ensuring that the electroplating layer thicknesses of different parts are consistent and avoiding electroplating defects caused by uneven current distribution.
[0027] Second Embodiment:

At the same time, in cooperation with the through holes 303 provided at both ends of the card slot 302, it is possible to prevent clamping dead corners from appearing in the clamping areas at both ends of the PCB board, ensuring complete electroplating of the PCB board.
[0030] Third Embodiment:

[0032] Through the provided electroplating rack 301 and handle 304, during use, the staff can place and take the electroplating rack 301 only through the handle 304, which can prevent the staff from touching the electroplating solution. Since the metal ions and other chemical substances contained in the electroplating solution may cause irritation to the skin of the operator or more serious health problems, by using the handle 304, direct contact with the electroplating solution can be avoided, reducing the occurrence of skin problems.
[0033] Fourth Embodiment:
[0034] As Figure 4 shown, a positioning cavity is also provided at the upper end of the moving seat 203, and convex blocks are formed at both ends of the push plate 204. The push plate 204 is clamped in the positioning cavity provided in the moving seat 203 through the convex blocks at both ends.
[0035] Fifth Embodiment:

During use, the staff only needs to clamp the push plate 204 into the positioning groove provided in the moving seat 203, and then in cooperation with the use of the insertion pin 206, the push plate 204 is fixed in the slot 205 provided in the moving seat 203.
[0037] Through the cooperation of the slot 205 and the insertion pin 206, the quick installation of the push plate 204 can be achieved. When the push plate 204 is used for a long time, through the installation method of quick disassembly, it is convenient for the subsequent staff to replace and clean it.
[0038] Working principle: During use, the staff first place the PCB boards into the electroplating rack 301 in sequence, limit the PCB boards through the card slots 302 provided on both sides of the electroplating rack 301, and then place the electroplating rack 301 into the electroplating tank 101 until the electroplating solution is static up to the electroplating rack 301. At this time, the staff starts the driving motor 201. Driven by the driving motor 201, the moving seats 203 at both ends move towards each other. Through the opposite movement of the moving seats 203, the push plates 204 move towards each other. Through the movement of the push plates 204 at both ends, the electroplating solution in the electroplating tank 101 flows back and forth.
