[0002] Plastic electroplating refers to parts or components that have a layer of metal applied to a plastic substrate through an electroplating process. This technology combines the advantages of plastic and metal and is often used for decoration, protection, and performance enhancement of plastic parts. Displacement copper recycling involves recovering copper from copper-containing scrap, typically through chemical reactions. Common industrial recycling methods include leaching and electrolytic deposition, in which the scrap is immersed in an acid solution, dissolving the copper and subsequently reducing it back to copper metal. This process not only helps recover copper but also reduces environmental pollution.

[0003] In the prior art, the existing replacement copper recovery device for plastic electroplating parts is not convenient for removing the plastic electroplating parts from the replacement solution after the reaction when in use. In addition, the plastic electroplating parts are light and buoyant, making it difficult to completely immerse them in the replacement solution, which is inconvenient for personnel to use. Therefore, we propose a replacement copper recovery device for plastic electroplating to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0030] By means of the above structure: by starting the two electric push rods 9, the two mounting plates 10 can be driven to move upward or downward. When the two mounting plates 10 move up or down, the two L-shaped connecting rods 7 and the mesh box 6 can be driven to move up or down. Here, when the mesh box 6 moves down, the plastic electroplated parts inside the mesh box 6 can be immersed in the replacement solution inside the replacement box 1 along with the mesh box 6, so that the copper on the plastic electroplated parts can be replaced and recovered. When the mesh box 6 moves up, it is convenient for personnel to take materials from the mesh box 6 and the plastic electroplated parts inside it. Here, by setting the cover plate 17, the plastic electroplated parts can be wrapped, which can avoid the buoyancy of the plastic electroplated parts themselves from affecting the complete immersion of the plastic electroplated parts, thereby ensuring the effect of replacing and recovering the copper on the plastic electroplated parts.

[0031] As a preferred solution of the present invention, an observation window 2 is provided on the front side of the substitution box 1. The observation window 2 allows personnel to observe the reserve of the substitution solution.

[0032] As a preferred solution of the present invention, a filter screen 5 is provided inside the replacement box 1, and the filter screen 5 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the replacement box 1. The top of the filter screen 5 is in contact with the bottom of the mesh box 6. Four support blocks 4 are fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the replacement box 1. The bottom of the filter screen 5 is in contact with the top of the four support blocks 4 respectively. By providing the filter screen 5, filtration can be achieved when the replacement solution is discharged through the drain pipe 3, thereby ensuring the solid-liquid separation effect and avoiding waste of metal substances.

[0033] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the clamping assembly includes a U-shaped frame 12, a screw 15 and a positioning block 16.

[0036] It should be noted that the specific type of electric push rod 9 to be used is selected by relevant technical personnel familiar with this field, and the above electric push rod 9 belongs to the existing technology and will not be described in detail in this solution.

[0037] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: when in use, first connect the electric push rod 9 to the external power supply, then place the plastic electroplated parts inside the mesh box 6 and cover it with the cover 17. Here, the mesh box 6 and the cover 17 cooperate to wrap the plastic electroplated parts, which can avoid the buoyancy of the plastic electroplated parts themselves affecting the complete immersion of the plastic electroplated parts, and ensure the effect of replacing and recycling the copper on the plastic electroplated parts. At this time, place the mesh box 6 inside the replacement box 1 and on the top of the filter screen 5. At this time, the ends of the two L-shaped connecting rods 7 that are away from each other can be stuck in the inside of the two limit grooves 11. At this time, by moving the U-shaped frame 12 and making the positioning block 16 correspond to the positioning hole 8 up and down, then rotate the screw 15 and pass through the thread between the screw 15 and the U-shaped frame 12 The connection can drive the positioning block 16 and the positioning hole 8 to be plugged and limited. In this way, the L-shaped connecting rod 7 and the mounting plate 10 can be quickly disassembled and assembled, so that personnel can disassemble and assemble the net box 6.
