[0026] Embodiment
[0027] Refer to Figures 1-5 , a preparation device for copper-nickel plating brightener, including a stirring tank 1, an electric blower 2 and an air duct 3. The stirring tank 1 is integrally composed of a base and a tank body. A rotating motor is arranged inside the base, and a transmission shaft is arranged at the upper end of the rotating motor. The upper end of the transmission shaft is fitted with a stirring roller, and stirring rods are fitted on the outer side of the stirring roller. After the raw materials for preparing the copper-nickel plating brightener are put into the stirring tank 1, the staff can start the rotating motor to rotate the stirring rods to stir the nickel salt and copper salt solutions evenly, thereby completing the preparation operation of the copper-nickel plating brightener.
[0028] An electric blower 2 is provided on the outer side of the mixing tank 1, and one end of the electric blower 2 is connected through a wind pipe 3. The other end of the wind pipe 3 is connected through a feeding mechanism 5. The feeding mechanism 5 is fitted and connected to both sides of the inner wall of the mixing tank 1, and a feeding funnel 4 is fitted and connected to the upper end of the feeding mechanism 5. The bottom of the feeding funnel 4 is connected through a feed pipe 6, and the bottom of the feed pipe 6 is connected through a discharge port 9. A conveying pipe 10 is fitted and connected inside the feeding mechanism 5. The bottom of the wind pipe 3 is connected through an air outlet 8. When the staff adds the material powder of the raw materials, the staff can pour the material powder into the feeding funnel 4, so that the material powder enters the conveying pipe 10 through the feed pipe 6 and the discharge port 9. In this process, the staff can start the electric blower 2, so that the wind generated by the electric blower 2 can be output into the conveying pipe 10 through the air outlet 8. While the wind output from the air outlet 8 accelerates the output of the material powder into the mixing tank 1, the air outlet 8 can also prevent the material powder from adhering too much to the inner wall of the conveying pipe 10, thereby avoiding errors between the input amount and the actual received amount. In this process, since the bottom of the feed pipe 6 is connected through two discharge ports 9, and the two discharge ports 9 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the air outlet 8, the material powder can bypass the air outlet 8 and directly enter the conveying pipe 10 from below the air outlet 8, thereby avoiding the material powder staying above the air outlet 8 due to the influence of the wind.
[0029] Valve hinges 12 are fitted and connected to both sides of the inner wall of the conveying pipe 10, and the other end of the valve hinge 12 is fitted and connected to a movable valve 11. A spring group 13 is fitted and connected inside the movable valve 11, so that the movable valve 11 can be opened downward when receiving the wind output from the air outlet 8 and the impact force of the material, facilitating the input of the material powder into the mixing tank 1. At the same time, when deionized water for mixing is added to the mixing tank 1, at this time, the conveying pipe 10 and the air outlet 8 are in a state of stopping material feeding and air supply. The movable valve 11 is reset and closed under the action of the spring group 13, thereby preventing the solution inside the mixing tank 1 from flowing back to the upper end of the conveying pipe 10 and contaminating the discharge port 9 and the air outlet 8.
[0030] It should be noted that Figure 4 Figure is the closed state of the movable valve 11, and in this state, the movable valve 11 cannot be opened upward continuously due to the movement angle of the valve hinge 12, and the spring groups 13 inside the movable valve 11 are respectively fitted and installed on the inner wall of the conveying pipe 10 and inside the movable valve 11.
[0031] The whole feeding mechanism 5 is a semi-circular shape that fits against the inner wall of the mixing tank 1. And the bottom of the feeding mechanism 5 is provided with an output port that is connected to the conveying pipe 10 in a through manner. Through this output port, the conveying pipe 10 inputs the materials into the interior of the mixing tank 1. A material distributing block 7 is provided directly below the output port at the bottom of the feeding mechanism 5. And the whole material distributing block 7 is a quarter-spherical shape. Through this design, when the materials fall on the surface of the material distributing block 7, since the whole material distributing block 7 is higher in the middle and lower on both sides, this will cause the materials to scatter on both sides of the bottom of the material distributing block 7 under the action of wind force. This design avoids the output materials of the feeding mechanism 5 from being too concentrated at the bottom of the mixing tank 1.
[0032] The whole air duct 3 is divided into two parts: the main pipe and the branch pipes. The main pipe is connected to the electric blower 2 in a through manner, and the other end of the main pipe is connected to two branch pipes in a through manner. Through this design, the wind force output by the electric blower 2 can be divided through the main pipe into the two branch pipes, and then output from the two branch pipes to the two feeding mechanisms 5 inside the mixing tank 1.
[0033] The bottom of the feeding funnel 4 is connected to a connecting pipe in a through manner, and the outer surface of the connecting pipe is provided with threads. The upper end inside the feeding pipe 6 is provided with threads. Through this design, when the staff needs to clean the feeding funnel 4, the staff can rotate the feeding funnel 4 to make the feeding funnel 4 disengage from the feeding pipe 6 inside the feeding mechanism 5, so as to facilitate the staff to take out the feeding funnel 4 for cleaning.
[0034] Working principle: When the staff adds the material powder of the raw materials, pour the material powder into the interior of the feeding hopper 4, so that the material powder enters the interior of the conveying pipe 10 through the feeding pipe 6 and the discharge port 9. In this process, start the electric blower 2, so that the wind generated by the electric blower 2 can be output to the interior of the conveying pipe 10 through the air outlet 8. While accelerating the output of the material powder to the interior of the mixing tank 1 by the wind output from the air outlet 8, the air outlet 8 can also prevent the material powder from adhering too much to the inner wall of the conveying pipe 10, thereby avoiding errors between the input amount and the actual received amount. Since the bottom of the feeding pipe 6 is connected through two discharge ports 9, and the two discharge ports 9 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the air outlet 8, the material powder can bypass the air outlet 8 and directly enter the interior of the conveying pipe 10 from below the air outlet 8, thereby avoiding the material powder staying above the air outlet 8 due to the influence of the wind. The movable valve 11 can be opened downward when receiving the wind output from the air outlet 8 and the impact force of the material, so as to facilitate the input of the material powder into the interior of the mixing tank 1. At the same time, when adding deionized water for mixing into the interior of the mixing tank 1, the conveying pipe 10 and the air outlet 8 are in a state of stopping material feeding and air supply, and the movable valve 11 is reset and closed under the action of the spring group 13, thereby preventing the solution in the mixing tank 1 from flowing back to the upper end of the conveying pipe 10 to contaminate the discharge port 9 and the air outlet 8. After the preparation raw materials of the copper-nickel bright plating agent are put into the interior of the mixing tank 1, the staff starts the rotating motor to rotate the stirring rod, so that the nickel salt and copper salt solutions are stirred evenly, thereby completing the preparation operation of the copper-nickel bright plating agent.
[0035] The above embodiments are the preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the above embodiments. Any other changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be equivalent replacement methods and are all included in the protection scope of the present invention.
[0036] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation to the present invention.
