Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to electroplating equipment, in particular to an electroplating rack detection and replacement device. Background Art
[0002] At present, the hangers in the vertical continuous electroplating production line usually move in a cycle. When a hanger has a problem, it is generally replaced manually, that is, the problematic hanger is manually removed and replaced with a normal hanger. Affected by factors such as the line position height and the hanger weight, the operator will inevitably bump into the hanger during repeated handling, thereby affecting the hanger accuracy and hanger service life. This is especially obvious during the frequent initial testing of new boards on the line. In addition, the normal hanger placement position is generally some distance away from the line operation. It is particularly time-consuming and labor-intensive to carry the hanger from the normal hanger position to the hanger replacement position. Utility Model Content

[0011] In the electroplating rack detection and replacement device disclosed by the utility model, the electroplating rack detection and replacement device is added on one side of the rack waiting section or return section. When the faulty rack reaches this position, the in-position sensor detects the rack and pushes it out under the drive of the shift drive mechanism. At the same time, the normal rack is added to the translation slide rail by using a preset module, and the shift drive mechanism retracts to return the rack to the normal conveyor line, thereby reducing the time for replacing the rack during continuous electroplating, effectively improving work efficiency and protecting the rack from collision, and better meeting the process requirements.

[0016] The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0017] The utility model discloses a device for detecting and replacing electroplating racks, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it includes a conveying slide 1, a translation slide 2 is connected in series on the conveying slide 1, and a push rod 4 is provided above the conveying slide 1 for driving multiple hangers 3 to slide along the conveying slide 1 and the translation slide 2. The translation slide 2 is fixedly mounted on the moving end of a shift drive mechanism 5, and the shift drive mechanism 5 is used to drive the translation slide 2 to move translationally in a direction perpendicular to the conveying slide 1. The moving end of the shift drive mechanism 5 is provided with an in-position sensor 6, and the in-position sensor 6 is used to detect the hanger 3 on the translation slide 2 and feed back an electrical signal to the preset controller.
[0018] In the above device, the electroplating rack detection and replacement device is added on one side of the rack waiting section or return section. When the faulty rack reaches this position, the in-position sensor 6 detects the rack 3 and pushes it out under the drive of the shift drive mechanism 5. At the same time, the normal rack is added to the translation slide rail 2 using a preset module. The shift drive mechanism 5 retracts to return the rack 3 to the normal conveyor line, thereby reducing the time for replacing the rack during continuous electroplating, effectively improving work efficiency and protecting the rack from collision, and better meeting the process requirements.
[0019] In order to achieve reliable support and fixation, this embodiment includes a frame 7, and the conveying slide rail 1 and the shift driving mechanism 5 are both fixed on the frame 7.
[0020] Furthermore, a motor drive mechanism 8 is fixed on the frame 7 for driving the push rod 4 to extend along the sliding direction of the hanger 3 .
[0021] In actual applications, the in-place sensor 6 can be a proximity switch, infrared sensor or other components. When the in-place sensor 6 senses the hanger 3, it feeds back an electrical signal to the control system. The control system can identify the hanger 3 by counting or marking signals. When it is determined that the problem hanger is located on the translation rail 2, the shift drive mechanism 5 is controlled to move and push it out, thereby realizing automatic detection and replacement of the hanger.
[0022] In order to reliably fix the shift driving mechanism 5 on the frame 7 , in this embodiment, a tripod 9 is fixed on the frame 7 , and the shift driving mechanism 5 is fixed on the tripod 9 .
[0023] As a preferred embodiment, the displacement drive mechanism 5 is a cylinder. The advantage of using a cylinder as the displacement drive mechanism in this embodiment is that the cylinder has sufficient driving capacity and its forward and backward stroke is fixed, which helps to realize automatic replacement of the rack.
[0024] Regarding the preferred pushing method of the push rod 4 on the hanger 3, in this embodiment, a baffle 30 is provided at the upper end of the hanger 3, and the push rod 4 is provided with a plurality of inclined rods 40 corresponding one-to-one to the hanger 3, and the inclined rods 40 are used to push the baffle 30.
[0025] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements or improvements made within the technical scope of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
