Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroplating equipment, and in particular to an auxiliary feeding device for a high-efficiency and environmentally friendly continuous electroplating equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Electroplating is the process of depositing a thin layer of another metal or alloy onto the surface of certain metals using the principle of electrolysis. It utilizes electrolysis to coat the surface of metal or other material parts with a metallic film, thereby preventing metal oxidation and improving wear resistance, conductivity, reflectivity, corrosion resistance, and aesthetics. During electroplating, the workpieces to be electroplated are transported to the electroplating equipment via a conveyor belt. After electroplating, the workpieces are unloaded via the same conveyor belt, thus automating the electroplating process.

[0003] Electroplating methods are divided into rack plating, barrel plating, and continuous plating, which are mainly related to the size and batch size of the parts to be plated.

[0004] In the prior art, Chinese utility model patent CN218453726U discloses an auxiliary feeding device for a high-efficiency and environmentally friendly continuous electroplating equipment. The device includes a support platform, with a cylinder mounted on the left side of the upper surface of the support platform, and an L-shaped support block mounted on the top of the cylinder. This auxiliary feeding device for a high-efficiency and environmentally friendly continuous electroplating equipment controls a motor to operate, causing a lead screw to rotate and drive the lead screw cylinder to move up and down. Because the outer wall of the lead screw cylinder slides between the lead screw cylinder and the inner wall of the cavity cylinder connected by a connecting rod, the lead screw cylinder is limited, ensuring that it can only move up and down. At this time, the connecting rod connected to the upper surface of the connecting rod also moves upward after the lead screw cylinder moves upward, causing the connecting rod and the push plate connected to the top of the connecting rod to move upward, pushing the patch upward, thus pushing the patch out, which is then extracted by an external gripping mechanism.

[0005] Problems compared with existing technologies: In the process of feeding electroplating parts, the auxiliary feeding equipment of some existing high-efficiency and environmentally friendly continuous electroplating equipment has a blocking effect between the feeding element and the electroplating solution, making it difficult for the electroplating parts to be completely electroplated and affecting the electroplating effect of the workpiece.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an auxiliary feeding device for efficient and environmentally friendly continuous electroplating equipment. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide an auxiliary feeding device for a high-efficiency and environmentally friendly continuous electroplating equipment.

[0008] The present invention solves its technical problem through the following technical solution: It includes an electroplating tank, with a receiving mechanism above the electroplating tank. The receiving mechanism includes a lifting electric push rod A, which is installed above the electroplating tank. A top cover is provided at the extended end of the lifting electric push rod A, and a receiving box is provided below the top cover. Multiple helical springs are provided at the bottom of the receiving box, and a support plate is provided at the extended end of each helical spring. A locking nut is provided on one side of the receiving box, and the locking nut is threadedly connected to the top cover. Multiple round holes are provided on one side of the top cover, the receiving box, and the support plate. A driving mechanism is provided above the receiving mechanism, and a replacement mechanism is provided at the bottom of the electroplating tank.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the driving mechanism includes a frame, which is welded to one side of the electroplating tank. A servo motor is provided at one end of the frame, and a drive plate is provided at the rotating end of the servo motor. Multiple mounting holes are provided on the outer side of the drive plate, and the mounting holes are located at the same position as the lifting electric push rod A.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the replacement mechanism includes a lifting electric push rod B, which is fixed to the middle position of the electroplating tank by bolts. A filter plate is provided at the extended end of the lifting electric push rod B, and the filter plate is in clearance fit with the electroplating tank. A feeding pipe is provided below the electroplating tank, and an electric valve is provided at one end of the feeding pipe.

[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model, the bottom of the electroplating tank is provided with a slope.

[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model, a telescopic retaining ring is provided on the outer side of the electroplating tank.

[0013] As a further improvement of this utility model: multiple support legs are provided below the electroplating tank, and a fixing plate is provided below the support legs.

[0014] As a further improvement of this utility model: the number of lifting electric push rods A is six, and the number of helical springs is four.

[0015] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] 1. By tightening the locking nut, the receiving box is rotated along one side of the top cover. The workpiece to be electroplated is placed into the bottom of multiple receiving boxes in sequence. Then, the locking nut is tightened. The lifting electric push rod A drives multiple receiving boxes to fall into the electroplating tank in sequence. Then, the lifting electric push rod A drives the receiving boxes to move up and down. At the same time, the servo motor drives multiple receiving boxes to rotate. The workpiece to be electroplated will impact the support plate. Under the elastic action of multiple helical springs, the workpiece moves up and down inside the receiving box. This avoids the feeding element from blocking the electroplating parts and the electroplating solution, ensuring that the electroplating parts can be completely electroplated and improving the electroplating effect of the workpiece.

[0017] 2. By installing a lifting electric actuator B, the filter plate moves up and down inside the electroplating tank to filter impurities remaining in the electroplating solution during the electroplating process. An inclined plate is also installed to filter the electroplating solution. An electric valve is installed to automatically open or close the feed pipe, thereby automatically controlling the discharge process of the electroplating solution and improving the convenience of changing the electroplating solution in the high-efficiency and environmentally friendly continuous electroplating equipment.
