Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electroplating, in particular to an electroplating hanger. Background Art
[0002] Electroplating, a process that deposits a thin layer of another metal or alloy on a metal surface using electrolysis, is an essential step in wafer and PCB fabrication. With the rapid development of the PCB and photovoltaic industries, the fixtures and fixtures used in electroplating equipment have become crucial for ensuring the quality of the plated parts.
[0003] In the existing technology, with the development of technology and the diversification of market demand, the requirements for electroplating processes for parts made of different materials are increasing. When traditional PCB or steel plate pressing technology is applied to the electroplating of glass materials, due to the fragility of glass, this technology cannot adapt to its characteristics and easily causes the glass to break during operation, thereby affecting the quality of the plated parts and increasing production costs. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the utility model provides an electroplating hanger to solve the problem of glass breakage during operation.
[0005] The utility model provides an electroplating hanger, comprising:
[0006] Conductive copper busbar;
[0007] A fixed plate, electrically connected to the conductive copper busbar, wherein a plurality of contact points are provided on the electroplated surface of the fixed plate, and the plurality of contact points are electrically connected to the fixed plate;
[0008] There is at least one clamping member, the clamping member is rotatably mounted on the fixed plate, a placement space is left between the clamping member and the fixed plate, the placement space is suitable for placing the workpiece to be plated, and opposite sides of the workpiece to be plated are respectively in contact with the clamping member and the contact point;
[0009] The locking mechanism includes a locking member and a lock buckle, wherein the locking member is arranged on the clamping member, and the lock buckle is arranged on the fixing plate corresponding to the locking member, and the locking member and the lock buckle have a locked state and an unlocked state.
[0010] Beneficial Effects: When plating fragile parts, this electroplating rack requires adjusting the locking member and latch in the locking mechanism to the unlocked state. In this state, the clamping member can rotate with the fixed plate as a fulcrum, thereby achieving the opening action. Subsequently, the part to be plated is placed in the reserved placement space between the clamping member and the fixed plate, and the clamping member is rotated to return to the closed position. Finally, the locking member and latch are adjusted to the locked state, thus completing the loading process of the part to be plated.
[0011] During the entire operation process, since the opposite sides of the workpiece to be plated are tightly abutted against the clamping parts and the contact points respectively, the workpiece to be plated can always maintain a precise and stable positioning state during the electroplating process, reducing the possibility of damage to fragile plated parts and ensuring the integrity and reliability of the plated parts.
[0012] Because the fixed plate is electrically connected to the conductive copper busbar, and multiple contact points on the electroplating surface of the fixed plate are electrically connected to the fixed plate, when the workpiece to be plated is placed in the space, it can achieve multi-point, stable electrical contact through abutment with the contact points. This helps to ensure that the current is evenly distributed on the surface of the workpiece to be plated, thereby making the plating more uniform, improving the quality of electroplating, and meeting the needs of products such as circuit boards that require high plating uniformity. Through the cooperation of the locking member and the lock buckle, the operator can easily switch the clamp between the locked and unlocked states. When loading, the locking mechanism is unlocked, the clamp is opened, and the workpiece to be plated is placed and locked, achieving rapid loading and unloading, improving production efficiency, and saving labor and time costs.
[0013] In an optional embodiment, a card slot is provided on the lock buckle, and the locking member is an elastic strip, one end of the elastic strip is connected to the clamping member, and the other end corresponds to the card slot to form a clamping portion;
[0014] In the locked state, the clamping portion is clamped in the clamping slot, and the workpiece to be plated is clamped between the clamping member and the fixed plate; in the unlocked state, the clamping portion is disengaged from the clamping slot, and the clamping member can rotate relative to the fixed plate.
[0015] Beneficial effect: By pressing the elastic strip, the clamping part of the elastic strip is clamped into the clamping groove of the lock, so that the locking mechanism is in a locked state. At this time, the clamping part and the fixing plate can tightly clamp the workpiece to be plated in the middle, ensuring that the workpiece to be plated is firmly fixed and can effectively prevent the workpiece to be plated from displacement during the electroplating process.
[0016] When the plated part needs to be removed or replaced, simply disengage the engaging portion of the elastic pressure strip from the slot, allowing the clamping member to rotate relative to the fixed plate. This allows the part to be removed or replaced. This simple operation allows for quick switching between locked and unlocked states, improving work efficiency.
[0017] In an optional embodiment, two clamping members are provided, and the two clamping members are rotatably provided on opposite sides of the fixing plate via a rotating shaft.
[0018] Advantages: When two clamping members are located on opposite sides of the fixing plate, the workpiece to be plated can be clamped from both sides. This double-sided clamping method can make the workpiece to be plated more stable during fixation, ensuring the precise position of the workpiece during the electroplating process, thereby ensuring the quality of electroplating and making the thickness of the electroplated layer more uniform.
[0019] In an optional embodiment, the clamping member includes a first pressing plate and second pressing plates respectively provided at both ends of the first pressing plate, and the first pressing plate and the second pressing plate are vertically arranged and correspond to the edge of the workpiece to be plated.
[0020] Beneficial effect: The first pressing plate and the vertically arranged second pressing plate form an L-shaped structure, so that the clamping part can match the edge shape of the workpiece to be plated well, can fit the right-angle edge or angular part of the workpiece to be plated, firmly fix the workpiece to be plated, and prevent the workpiece to be plated from translation or rotation during the electroplating process.
[0021] Because the first and second pressing plates correspond to the edges of the workpiece to be plated, they provide a degree of shielding and protection during electroplating, helping to prevent excessive accumulation or uneven flow of the plating solution at the edges. When the plating solution is sprayed onto the surface of the workpiece, the first and second pressing plates guide the plating solution to be more rationally distributed between the main surface and the edges of the workpiece, preventing the plating layer from being too thick or too thin at the edges. This improves the quality of electroplating and results in a more uniform and aesthetically pleasing overall plating effect on the workpiece.
[0022] In an optional embodiment, the locking mechanism is provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the two clamping members, and the two locking mechanisms are respectively provided on the upper and lower sides of the fixing plate.
[0023] Beneficial effects: The two locking mechanisms are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the fixed plate, and correspond one-to-one to the two clamping parts. When installing and disassembling the workpiece to be plated, the two clamping parts can be opened or fixed by unlocking or locking the locking mechanisms on the upper and lower sides, so as to facilitate the installation and disassembly of the workpiece to be plated.
[0024] Distributing the locking mechanisms on the upper and lower sides of the fixing plate can make more rational use of the equipment space and avoid excessive concentration of locking mechanisms on one side.
[0025] In an optional embodiment, the elastic pressure strip is provided on the first pressing plate and is vertically connected to the first pressing plate.
[0026] Beneficial Effects: The elastic pressure strip is vertically connected to the first pressure plate, which, in the locked state, can better transmit and disperse the force during the clamping. When the clamping portion is locked into the slot, the vertical connection allows the tension or pressure on the elastic pressure strip to be more effectively distributed between the first and second pressure plates, making the clamping member's holding force on the workpiece to be plated more uniform.
[0027] In an optional embodiment, a plurality of elastic insulating members are provided on the clamping surface of each of the clamping members, and in the locked state, the elastic insulating members abut against the workpiece to be plated.
[0028] Beneficial Effects: When the clamping element clamps the workpiece, the clamping force may generate a certain impact force. The elastic insulating element can absorb this impact force, reducing damage to the workpiece. At the same time, during the operation of the electroplating equipment, if the equipment vibrates or is subjected to other external impacts, the elastic insulating element can also act as a buffer, ensuring that the workpiece is electroplated in a stable state.
[0029] During the electroplating process, if there is electrical conduction between the clamping element and the workpiece, this can lead to uneven distribution of the plating current, affecting the quality of the plated layer. The insulating properties of elastic insulators effectively prevent this, ensuring that the plating current flows only on the intended surface of the workpiece, allowing the plating layer to be deposited evenly.
[0030] In an optional embodiment, a plurality of the contact points are distributed on the fixing plate at intervals corresponding to the edges of the workpiece to be plated.
[0031] Beneficial Effects: Contact points are distributed near the edges of the workpiece, guiding the plating solution to flow more efficiently between the edge and the surface during the electroplating process. Because the flow of the plating solution around the contact points is affected, staggered contact points create a more uniform flow around the edge of the workpiece. This prevents excessive accumulation of the plating solution at the edge or poor flow, ensuring a more uniform thickness of the plating layer across the edge and surface, improving electroplating quality.
[0032] In an optional embodiment, a plurality of limit blocks are provided on the fixed plate, and the plurality of limit blocks are spaced apart corresponding to the side walls of the workpiece to be plated, and at least one limit block is provided on the bottom wall of the workpiece to be plated for supporting the workpiece to be plated.
[0033] Benefits: The stoppers allow operators to quickly find the correct position when installing the workpiece. When installing the workpiece, the operator can quickly place the workpiece in the correct position on the fixing plate based on the position of the stoppers, eliminating the need for time-consuming adjustments and alignment. This significantly increases the speed of workpiece installation and improves the efficiency of the entire electroplating production line.
[0034] The limiting blocks on the bottom wall play a role in supporting the workpiece to be plated, thereby preventing the workpiece to be plated from falling out of the fixing plate under the action of its own gravity.
[0035] In an optional embodiment, a support frame is further included, one end of the support frame is connected to the fixing plate, and the other end of the support frame is connected to the conductive copper bus.
[0036] Beneficial Effects: The support frame connects the fixed plate and the conductive copper busbar, creating a stable structure between them. During the electroplating process, the equipment is subject to various external forces, such as the impact of liquid flow and vibrations within the equipment itself. The support frame effectively disperses these forces, preventing relative displacement or damage between the fixed plate and the conductive copper busbar. As the plating solution circulates through the equipment, it may exert a certain impact force on the fixed plate. This force, transmitted to the conductive copper busbar by the support frame, is dispersed, ensuring a stable connection between the two. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0045] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0046] In related technologies, with the development of technology and the diversification of market demands, the requirements for electroplating processes for parts made of different materials are increasing. When traditional PCB or steel plate pressing technology is applied to electroplating of glass materials, due to the fragility of glass, this technology cannot adapt to its characteristics and can easily cause the glass to break during operation, thereby affecting the quality of the plated parts and increasing production costs.
[0047] In order to solve the above technical problems, the following Figures 1 to 5 Shown, an embodiment of the present utility model is described.
[0048] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the one hand, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an electroplating rack is provided, which includes a conductive copper bus 1, a fixing plate 2, a clamping member 3 and a locking mechanism 5.
[0049] Specifically, if Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the fixing plate 2 is mounted on the conductive copper bus 1 and electrically connected to the conductive copper bus 1. A plurality of contact points 201 are provided on the electroplated surface of the fixing plate 2, and the plurality of contact points 201 are electrically connected to the fixing plate 2.
[0050] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, at least one clamping member 3 is provided, wherein the clamping member 3 is rotatably mounted on the fixed plate 2. A placement space is provided between the clamping member 3 and the fixed plate 2, and the placement space is suitable for placing the workpiece 4 to be plated. When the workpiece 4 to be plated is placed in the placement space, opposite sides of the workpiece 4 respectively contact the clamping member 3 and the contact point 201.
[0051] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the locking mechanism 5 includes a locking member 501 and a lock catch 502. The locking member 501 is provided on the clamping member 3, and the lock catch 502 is mounted on the fixing plate 2. The position of the lock catch 502 corresponds to the position of the locking member 501. The locking member 501 and the lock catch 502 have a locked state and an unlocked state.
[0052] When plating fragile workpieces 4, this plating rack requires adjusting the locking member 501 and the lock catch 502 of the locking mechanism 5 to the unlocked position. In this position, the clamping member 3 can rotate around the fixed plate 2, thereby opening the workpiece 4. The workpiece 4 is then placed in the reserved space between the clamping member 3 and the fixed plate 2. The clamping member 3 is then rotated back to the closed position, and the locking member 501 and the lock catch 502 are then adjusted back to the locked position, completing the loading process for the workpiece 4.
[0053] During the entire operation process, since the opposite sides of the workpiece 4 to be plated are tightly abutted against the clamping member 3 and the contact point 201 respectively, the workpiece 4 to be plated can always maintain a precise and stable positioning state during the electroplating process, reducing the possibility of damage to fragile plated parts and ensuring the integrity and reliability of the plated parts.
[0054] Since the fixed plate 2 is electrically connected to the conductive copper bus 1, and the multiple contact points 201 on the electroplating surface of the fixed plate 2 are electrically connected to the fixed plate 2, when the workpiece 4 to be plated is placed in the space, it can achieve multi-point, stable electrical contact by abutting against the contact points 201, which helps to ensure that the current is evenly distributed on the surface of the workpiece 4 to be plated, thereby making the plating more uniform, improving the quality of electroplating, and meeting the needs of products such as circuit boards that require high plating uniformity. Through the cooperation of the locking member 501 and the lock buckle 502, the operator can easily switch the clamping member 3 between the locked state and the unlocked state. When loading, the locking mechanism 5 is unlocked, the clamping member 3 is opened, and the workpiece 4 to be plated is placed and locked, so as to achieve rapid loading and unloading, improve production efficiency, and save labor and time costs.
[0055] Specifically, the fixing plate 2 and the conductive copper busbar 1 can be connected by fasteners such as bolts, and the fixing plate 2 and the contact point 201 can be made of metal materials. In the embodiment of the present application, there is no specific restriction on the connection method between the fixing plate 2 and the conductive copper busbar 1, and there is no specific restriction on the material of the fixing plate 2 and the contact point 201.
[0056] Specifically, one or more clamping members 3 may be provided. For example, two clamping members 3 are provided, and the two clamping members 3 are arranged opposite to each other. In the implementation of this application, the number of the clamping members 3 is not specifically limited.
[0057] Specifically, the locking member 501 and the lock buckle 502 in the locking mechanism 5 can be switched between the locked state and the unlocked state by snapping. In the embodiment of the present application, no specific restrictions are imposed on the structures of the locking member 501 and the lock buckle 502.
[0058] Specifically, the electroplating surface of the fixing plate 2 refers to the side of the fixing plate 2 facing the workpiece 4 to be plated.
[0059] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a locking slot 5021 is provided on the lock buckle 502 , and the locking member 501 is an elastic strip, one end of the elastic strip is provided on the clamping member 3 , and the other end forms a clamping portion, which is provided corresponding to the locking slot 5021 .
[0060] In the locked state, the engaging portion is engaged in the engaging groove 5021, and the clamping member 3 is locked on the fixed plate 2, so that the workpiece 4 to be plated is clamped between the clamping member 3 and the fixed plate 2. In the unlocked state, the engaging portion is disengaged from the engaging groove 5021, and the clamping member 3 can rotate relative to the fixed plate 2.
[0061] By pressing the elastic strip, the snap-fitting portion of the elastic strip is inserted into the snap-fitting groove 5021 of the lock buckle 502, so that the locking mechanism 5 is in a locked state. At this time, the clamping member 3 and the fixing plate 2 can tightly clamp the workpiece 4 to be plated in the middle, ensuring that the workpiece 4 to be plated is firmly fixed and can effectively prevent the workpiece 4 to be plated from displacement during the electroplating process.
[0062] When it is necessary to remove or replace the workpiece 4 to be plated, the engaging portion of the elastic pressure strip is simply disengaged from the engaging groove 5021, thereby rotating the clamping member 3 relative to the fixing plate 2. The workpiece 4 to be plated can then be removed or replaced. This simple operation facilitates quick switching between the locked and unlocked states, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0063] Specifically, the elastic pressure strip can be made of elastic metal or rubber parts, etc. In the embodiment of the present application, there is no specific restriction on the material of the elastic pressure strip.
[0064] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in the unlocked state, the engaging portion is disengaged from the engaging slot 5021, and the elastic pressure strip is set at an angle to the fixing plate 2. If it is necessary to adjust the locking mechanism 5 to the locked state, pressure is applied to the elastic pressure strip toward the fixing plate 2, pressing the elastic pressure strip so that the engaging portion is engaged with the engaging slot 5021.
[0065] Specifically, the lock buckle 502 can be configured to be hook-shaped, so that a slot 5021 is formed in the lock buckle 502 . In the embodiment of the present application, the structural shape of the lock buckle 502 is not specifically limited.
[0066] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, there are two clamping members 3 , which are rotatably disposed on the fixed plate 2 via the rotating shaft 6 , and the two clamping members 3 are disposed opposite to each other.
[0067] When two clamping members 3 are located on opposite sides of the fixing plate 2, the workpiece 4 can be clamped from both sides. The double-sided clamping method can make the workpiece 4 more stable when fixed, ensuring the precise position of the workpiece 4 during the electroplating process, thereby ensuring the quality of electroplating and making the thickness of the electroplated layer more uniform.
[0068] In one embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the clamping member 3 includes a first pressing plate 301 and a second pressing plate 302. The first pressing plate 301 is provided with a second pressing plate 302 at both ends, and the second pressing plate 302 is arranged perpendicular to the first pressing plate 301. The first pressing plate 301 and the second pressing plate 302 correspond to the edges of the workpiece 4 to be plated.
[0069] The first pressing plate 301 and the vertically arranged second pressing plate 302 form an L-shaped structure, so that the clamping member 3 can match the edge shape of the workpiece 4 to be plated well, and can fit the right-angle edge or angular part of the workpiece 4 to be plated, firmly fix the workpiece 4 to be plated, and prevent the workpiece 4 to be plated from translating or rotating during the electroplating process.
[0070] Because the first and second pressing plates 301, 302 correspond to the edges of the workpiece 4 to be plated, they provide a certain degree of shielding and protection for the edges during electroplating, helping to prevent excessive accumulation or uneven flow of the plating solution at the edges. When the plating solution is sprayed onto the surface of the workpiece 4 to be plated, the first and second pressing plates 301, 302 guide the plating solution to be more rationally distributed between the main surface and the edges of the workpiece 4 to be plated, avoiding excessively thick or thin plating layers at the edges, thereby improving the electroplating quality and achieving a more uniform and aesthetically pleasing overall plating effect on the workpiece 4 to be plated.
[0071] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the locking mechanism 5 and the two clamping members 3 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, and the two locking mechanisms 5 are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the fixing plate 2.
[0072] The two locking mechanisms 5 are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the fixed plate 2, and correspond one-to-one to the two clamping members 3. When installing and disassembling the workpiece 4 to be plated, the two clamping members 3 are opened or fixed by unlocking or locking the locking mechanisms 5 on the upper and lower sides, so as to facilitate the installation and disassembly of the workpiece 4 to be plated.
[0073] The locking mechanisms 5 are distributed on the upper and lower sides of the fixing plate 2, which can more reasonably utilize the space of the equipment and avoid the locking mechanisms 5 being too concentrated on one side.
[0074] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the elastic pressure strip is arranged on the first pressing plate 301 , and the elastic pressure strip is arranged perpendicular to the first pressing plate 301 .
[0075] The elastic pressure strip is vertically connected to the first pressure plate 301. In the locked state, it can better transmit and disperse the force during the engagement. When the engaging portion is engaged with the engaging slot 5021, the vertical connection allows the tension or pressure exerted by the elastic pressure strip to be more effectively distributed between the first and second pressure plates 301, 302, thereby ensuring a more uniform holding force applied by the clamping member 3 to the workpiece 4.
[0076] Specifically, the elastic pressure strip and the first pressing plate 301 can be connected by welding, riveting or a simple mechanical connection method. In the embodiment of the present application, there is no specific limitation on the connection method between the elastic pressure strip and the first pressing plate 301.
[0077] In one embodiment, Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a plurality of elastic insulating members 303 are provided on the clamping surface of each clamping member 3 . In the locked state, the elastic insulating members 303 abut against the workpiece 4 to be plated.
[0078] When the clamping member 3 clamps the workpiece 4, the clamping force may generate a certain impact force. The elastic insulating member 303 can absorb this impact force, reducing damage to the workpiece 4. At the same time, during the operation of the electroplating equipment, if the equipment vibrates or is subjected to other external impacts, the elastic insulating member 303 can also act as a buffer, ensuring that the workpiece 4 is electroplated in a stable state.
[0079] During the electroplating process, if there is electrical conduction between the clamping member 3 and the workpiece 4, this may result in uneven distribution of the electroplating current, thereby affecting the quality of the electroplated layer. The insulating properties of the elastic insulating member 303 effectively prevent this from occurring, ensuring that the electroplating current flows only on the intended surface of the workpiece 4, allowing the electroplated layer to be deposited evenly.
[0080] In one embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, a plurality of contact points 201 are distributed on the fixing plate 2 at intervals corresponding to the edges of the workpiece 4 to be plated.
[0081] Contact points 201 are distributed near the edges of the workpiece 4 to be plated. During the electroplating process, they guide the plating solution to flow more efficiently between the edge and surface of the workpiece 4. Because the flow of the plating solution around contact points 201 is affected to some extent, the spaced contact points 201 create a more uniform flow field around the edge of the workpiece 4. This prevents excessive accumulation of the plating solution at the edge or poor flow, thereby ensuring a more uniform thickness of the electroplated layer along the edge and surface, improving electroplating quality.
[0082] Specifically, the multiple contact points 201 may be evenly spaced and distributed. In the embodiment of the present application, there is no specific limitation on the distribution of the multiple contact points 201 .
[0083] In one embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, a plurality of limit blocks 202 are provided on the fixing plate 2, and the plurality of limit blocks 202 are spaced apart corresponding to the side walls of the workpiece 4 to be plated. Among them, at least one limit block 202 is provided on the bottom wall of the workpiece 4 to be plated for supporting the workpiece 4 to be plated.
[0084] The stop block 202 enables the operator to quickly find the correct position when installing the workpiece 4. When installing the workpiece 4, the operator can quickly place the workpiece 4 at the appropriate position on the fixing plate 2 based on the position of the stop block 202 without spending a lot of time adjusting and aligning. This can greatly increase the speed of installing the workpiece 4, thereby improving the working efficiency of the entire electroplating production line.
[0085] The limiting block 202 of the bottom wall plays a role in supporting the workpiece 4 to be plated, thereby preventing the workpiece 4 from falling out of the fixing plate 2 under the action of its own gravity.
[0086] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a support frame 7 is also included, one end of the support frame 7 is connected to the fixing plate 2, and the other end is connected to the conductive copper bus 1.
[0087] The fixed plate 2 and the conductive copper busbar 1 are connected by a support frame 7, forming a stable structure between the fixed plate 2 and the conductive copper busbar 1. During the electroplating process, the equipment is subject to various external forces, such as the impact force of the liquid flow and the vibration of the equipment itself. The support frame 7 can effectively disperse the external forces, preventing the fixed plate 2 and the conductive copper busbar 1 from relative displacement or damage due to external forces. When the electroplating solution circulates in the equipment, a certain impact force may be generated on the fixed plate 2. The force transmitted to the conductive copper busbar 1 through the support frame 7 can be dispersed, ensuring the stability of the connection between the two.
[0088] The working principle of the electroplating rack in this embodiment is described as follows:
[0089] First, the locking mechanism 5 is adjusted to the unlocked state. In this state, the clamping member 3 can rotate with the fixed plate 2 as a fulcrum, thereby realizing the opening action.
[0090] Subsequently, under the preliminary positioning action of the limiting member, the workpiece 4 to be plated is placed at a designated position on the fixing plate 2 .
[0091] Next, the two clamping members 3 are rotated to close, and the workpiece 4 to be plated is clamped in the placement space formed by the fixing plate 2 and the clamping members 3 .
[0092] Finally, the elastic pressure strip is pressed and the engaging portion of the elastic pressure strip is engaged with the engaging groove 5021 , so that the locking mechanism 5 enters the locking state, completing the loading process of the workpiece 4 to be plated.
[0093] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described with reference to the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations shall fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
