Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of electroplating tank technology, and particularly relates to an electroplating tank for printing rollers. Background Technology

[0002] After the printing rollers are manufactured, they generally require electroplating to prevent oxidation. When plating the rollers in the plate-making electroplating bath, the ideal process requires the rollers to be immersed in the solution to about 2 / 3 full to achieve a satisfactory plating thickness. If the rollers are over-immersed or fully immersed, the quality of the electroplating process will be inconsistent.

[0003] Patent CN206986320U discloses an electric liquid level control device for an electroplating tank, including a liquid level adjusting baffle. The roller to be electroplated is immersed in the liquid in the electroplating tank, and excess liquid flows out from the overflow port. The electric control device also includes an electric control mechanism connected to the liquid level adjusting baffle, which drives the liquid level adjusting baffle to move up and down to realize the adjustment of the liquid level.

[0004] The aforementioned patent controls the liquid level in the electroplating tank by using a scale and a liquid level adjustment baffle to adapt it to the plate roller. Although this achieves the desired adaptation, the placement of the plate roller during the actual adjustment process causes fluctuations in the liquid surface, resulting in inaccurate liquid level readings, which requires improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a printing roller electroplating tank that can solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0006] The purpose of this application is to provide a printing roller electroplating tank, comprising:

[0007] The electroplating tank body has an adjustment port on one side:

[0008] The liquid level adjustment mechanism is installed on the electroplating tank body and includes an adjustment baffle that cooperates with the adjustment port, a scale, and a drive structure for driving the adjustment baffle to move.

[0009] A stabilizing mechanism is installed on the electroplating tank body and connected to the liquid level regulating mechanism to stabilize the movement of the regulating baffle.

[0010] The bottom of the electroplating tank body is also equipped with an overflow trough to receive the liquid discharged from the adjustment port. When the plate roller to be electroplated is immersed in the liquid in the electroplating tank body, the excess liquid flows from the adjustment port into the overflow trough.

[0011] Using the aforementioned printing roller electroplating tank, the user can precisely adjust the liquid level in the electroplating tank by intuitively following the scale indication through the coordination of the adjusting baffle, scale, and drive structure in the liquid level adjustment mechanism. This ensures that the liquid level matches the printing roller, improving not only operational convenience but also significantly enhancing the accuracy of the liquid level. The stabilizing mechanism, connected to the liquid level adjustment mechanism, effectively suppresses the impact of liquid surface fluctuations caused when the printing roller is placed in the electroplating tank on the adjusting baffle, thus avoiding inaccurate liquid level due to fluctuations. It also prevents liquid leakage caused by the adjusting baffle shaking due to liquid fluctuations.

[0012] The overflow trough at the bottom of the electroplating tank can receive excess liquid discharged from the adjustment port. When the plate roller is immersed in the liquid in the electroplating tank, the excess liquid will automatically flow into the overflow trough from the adjustment port, which not only avoids the waste of liquid, but also ensures the cleanliness and stability of the liquid in the electroplating tank. The liquid can also be guided back into the electroplating tank body by setting a return mechanism, making the liquid level adjustment more versatile.

[0013] Furthermore, the driving structure includes:

[0014] Mounting bracket, installed on the electroplating tank body;

[0015] The driver is mounted on a mounting bracket, and its output shaft is connected to an adjustment baffle.

[0016] The driver is configured with two drivers symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting bracket.

[0017] The mounting bracket securely mounts the actuators to the electroplating tank, ensuring the stability of the adjusting baffle during movement and reducing liquid level fluctuations caused by actuator wobbling or instability. Two actuators are symmetrically positioned on either side of the mounting bracket, providing a balanced driving force to the adjusting baffle during movement and preventing skewing or jamming caused by unilateral force. This not only improves the moving efficiency of the adjusting baffle but also further ensures the accuracy of the liquid level. Furthermore, because the actuators are directly connected to the adjusting baffle and are symmetrically positioned, precise control of the baffle's position is possible. This precise control allows users to fine-tune the liquid level as needed to meet the electroplating requirements of different rollers. These actuators can also drive highly precise electric cylinders.

[0018] Furthermore: the stabilizing mechanism includes:

[0019] The connecting plate is mounted on the output shaft of the driver and located above the adjusting baffle.

[0020] The damper is mounted on the mounting bracket, and its telescopic end is connected to the connecting plate.

[0021] Limiting slides are set on both sides of the inner wall of the electroplating tank and cooperate with the adjusting baffle;

[0022] The limiting groove is made of corrosion-resistant material.

[0023] The connecting plate is mounted on the output shaft of the driver and located above the adjusting baffle. As a component connecting the driver and the adjusting baffle, it ensures that the driving force is smoothly transmitted to the adjusting baffle. The damper is mounted on the mounting bracket, and its telescopic end connects to the connecting plate. By providing appropriate resistance, it slows down the movement speed of the adjusting baffle, making its movement smoother and avoiding impacts and shaking caused by rapid movement. Limiting grooves are located on both sides of the electroplating tank body and cooperate with the adjusting baffle, serving as the track for the adjusting baffle's movement. This ensures that the adjusting baffle can only move in the vertical direction, preventing lateral swaying or displacement even when affected by external factors such as liquid fluctuations, thus maintaining the accuracy and stability of the liquid level.

[0024] Meanwhile, the limiting slide is made of corrosion-resistant material, which can resist corrosive substances that may be present in the electroplating solution, prevent the limiting slide from being damaged by corrosion, extend the service life of the limiting slide, and reduce the maintenance costs and time costs caused by replacing damaged parts.

[0025] Furthermore, a spring is also fitted around the damper, with both ends of the spring connected to the mounting bracket and the connecting plate, respectively.

[0026] The damper itself provides resistance, slowing down the movement of the adjusting baffle and reducing the impact caused by rapid movement. The addition of the spring provides an extra buffering effect. When the adjusting baffle is subjected to external forces, the spring absorbs and disperses these forces, further reducing impact and swaying, making the movement of the adjusting baffle smoother. The elastic properties of the spring allow the adjusting baffle to better adapt to various minor external changes during movement, such as liquid fluctuations. Through spring adjustment, even if there are slight fluctuations in the liquid in the electroplating tank, the adjusting baffle can quickly return to the predetermined position, maintaining the accuracy and stability of the liquid level.

[0027] Furthermore, the adjusting baffle includes an outer plate and an inner plate, as well as a connecting rod connecting the outer plate and the inner plate. The outer plate is located on the outside of the electroplating tank body, the inner plate is located on the inside of the electroplating tank body, and the connecting rod passes through the adjusting port to connect the inner plate and the outer plate.

[0028] The adjusting baffle employs a combination design of an outer plate, an inner plate, and a connecting rod, ensuring excellent support on both the inner and outer sides of the electroplating tank. This not only enhances the overall stability of the baffle but also allows it to better adapt to the shape and size of the electroplating tank during movement, reducing swaying and friction caused by shape mismatch. Simultaneously, both the outer and inner plates are tightly fitted to the electroplating tank body, ensuring a tight seal between the adjusting baffle and the tank. This close fit reduces the possibility of electroplating solution leakage from the adjusting port, thereby maintaining the cleanliness and stability of the liquid within the electroplating tank.

[0029] Furthermore, both the outer plate and the inner plate are attached to the electroplating tank body, and the outer plate, the inner plate, and the connecting rod are all made of titanium plate.

[0030] The outer plate, inner plate, and connecting rod are all made of titanium plate. Titanium plate has excellent corrosion resistance and high strength, allowing the adjusting baffle to withstand the corrosion and mechanical stress of electroplating solution for a long time, thus extending the service life of the baffle. At the same time, the lightweight nature of titanium plate also reduces the overall weight of the adjusting baffle, making movement easier and more efficient.

[0031] The beneficial effects of this application are:

[0032] 1. Through the coordination of the adjusting baffle, scale and drive structure in the liquid level adjustment mechanism, users can intuitively and accurately adjust the liquid level in the electroplating tank according to the indication of the scale, ensuring that the liquid level matches the plate roller, which not only improves the convenience of operation, but also significantly improves the accuracy of liquid level.

[0033] 2. The stabilizing mechanism, through its connection with the liquid level adjustment mechanism, effectively suppresses the influence of liquid level fluctuations caused by the roller being placed into the electroplating tank on the adjusting baffle, thereby avoiding the problem of inaccurate liquid level due to liquid level fluctuations. It can also prevent the adjusting baffle from shaking due to liquid fluctuations, thus preventing liquid leakage.

[0034] 3. The adjusting baffle adopts a combination design of outer plate, inner plate, and connecting rod, which ensures that the baffle is well supported on both the inner and outer sides of the electroplating tank. This not only enhances the overall stability of the baffle but also allows it to better adapt to the shape and size of the electroplating tank during movement, reducing shaking and friction caused by shape mismatch.

[0041] The electroplating tank for printing rollers provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0042] Example 1:

[0043] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this application embodiment provides a printing roller electroplating tank, including:

[0044] The electroplating tank body 100 has an adjustment port 110 on one side.

[0045] The liquid level adjustment mechanism 200 is disposed on the electroplating tank body 100 and includes an adjustment baffle 210 that cooperates with the adjustment port 110, a scale 220, and a drive structure 230 for driving the adjustment baffle 210 to move.

[0046] A stabilizing mechanism 300 is installed on the electroplating tank body 100 and connected to the liquid level regulating mechanism 200, and is used to stabilize the movement of the regulating baffle 210.

[0047] The bottom of the electroplating tank body 100 is also provided with an overflow groove 120 for receiving liquid discharged from the regulating port 110. When the plate roller to be electroplated is immersed in the liquid in the electroplating tank body 100, the excess liquid flows from the regulating port 110 into the overflow groove 120.

[0048] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, using the aforementioned printing roller electroplating tank, through the cooperation of the adjusting baffle 210, scale 220, and drive structure 230 in the liquid level adjusting mechanism 200, the user can intuitively and precisely adjust the liquid level in the electroplating tank according to the indication of the scale 220, ensuring that the liquid level matches the printing roller. This not only improves the convenience of operation but also significantly enhances the accuracy of the liquid level. The stabilizing mechanism 300, through its connection with the liquid level adjusting mechanism 200, effectively suppresses the influence of liquid surface fluctuations caused when the printing roller is placed into the electroplating tank on the adjusting baffle 210, thereby avoiding the problem of inaccurate liquid level due to liquid surface fluctuations. It also prevents the adjusting baffle 210 from shaking due to liquid fluctuations, thus preventing liquid leakage.

[0049] The overflow trough 120 at the bottom of the electroplating tank body 100 can receive excess liquid discharged from the adjustment port 110. When the plate roller is immersed in the liquid in the electroplating tank, the excess liquid will automatically flow from the adjustment port 110 into the overflow trough 120, which not only avoids the waste of liquid, but also ensures the cleanliness and stability of the liquid in the electroplating tank. The liquid can also be guided back into the electroplating tank body 100 by setting a return mechanism, making the liquid level adjustment more versatile.

[0050] Furthermore, the drive structure 230 includes:

[0051] Mounting bracket 231 is mounted on electroplating tank body 100;

[0052] The driver 232 is mounted on the mounting bracket 231, and its output shaft is connected to the adjusting baffle 210.

[0053] The driver 232 is provided with two drivers 232 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting bracket 231.

[0054] With the mounting bracket 231 in place, the actuator 232 is securely mounted on the electroplating tank body 100, ensuring the stability of the adjusting baffle 210 during movement and reducing liquid level fluctuations caused by the actuator 232 shaking or instability. The two actuators 232 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting bracket 231, ensuring that the adjusting baffle 210 receives a balanced driving force during movement, avoiding skewness or jamming caused by unilateral force. This not only improves the moving efficiency of the adjusting baffle 210 but also further ensures the accuracy of the liquid level. Simultaneously, since the actuator 232 is directly connected to the adjusting baffle 210 and the two actuators are symmetrically arranged, precise control of the adjusting baffle 210's position can be achieved. This precise control allows users to fine-tune the liquid level as needed, thereby meeting the electroplating requirements of different rollers. The actuator 232 here can drive a relatively precise electric cylinder.

[0055] Example 2:

[0056] This application provides a printing roller electroplating tank, which, in addition to the above-mentioned technical features, also includes the following technical features.

[0057] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the stabilizing mechanism 300 includes:

[0058] The connecting plate 310 is mounted on the output shaft of the driver 232 and located above the adjusting baffle 210;

[0059] The damper 320 is mounted on the mounting bracket 231, and its telescopic end is connected to the connecting plate 310.

[0060] The limiting slide groove 330 is set on both sides of the inner wall of the electroplating tank body 100 and cooperates with the adjusting baffle 210.

[0061] The limiting slide 330 is made of corrosion-resistant material.

[0062] In this embodiment, the connecting plate 310 is disposed on the output shaft of the driver 232 and located above the adjusting baffle 210. As a component connecting the driver 232 and the adjusting baffle 210, it ensures that the driving force can be smoothly transmitted to the adjusting baffle 210. The damper 320 is disposed on the mounting bracket 231, and its telescopic end is connected to the connecting plate 310. By providing appropriate resistance, it slows down the moving speed of the adjusting baffle 210, making its movement smoother and avoiding impacts and shaking caused by rapid movement. The limiting groove 330 is disposed on both sides of the electroplating tank body 100 and cooperates with the adjusting baffle 210, serving as the track for the moving adjusting baffle 210. This ensures that the adjusting baffle 210 can only move in the vertical direction, preventing lateral swaying or displacement even when affected by external factors such as liquid fluctuations, thereby maintaining the accuracy and stability of the liquid level.

[0063] Meanwhile, the limiting slide 330 is made of corrosion-resistant material, which can resist corrosive substances that may exist in the electroplating solution, prevent the limiting slide 330 from being damaged by corrosion, extend the service life of the limiting slide 330, and reduce the maintenance cost and time cost caused by replacing damaged parts.

[0064] Furthermore, a spring 340 is also fitted around the damper 320, with both ends of the spring 340 connected to the mounting bracket 231 and the connecting plate 310, respectively.

[0065] In some embodiments of this application, the damper 320 itself provides a certain resistance, slowing down the movement speed of the adjusting baffle 210 and reducing the impact caused by rapid movement. The addition of the spring 340 provides an additional buffering effect. When the adjusting baffle 210 is subjected to external force, the spring 340 can absorb and disperse these forces, further reducing impact and shaking, making the movement of the adjusting baffle 210 smoother. The elastic characteristics of the spring 340 allow the adjusting baffle 210 to better adapt to various minor external changes during movement, such as liquid fluctuations. Through the adjustment of the spring 340, even if there are slight fluctuations in the liquid in the electroplating tank, the adjusting baffle 210 can quickly return to the predetermined position, maintaining the accuracy and stability of the liquid level.

[0066] Example 3:

[0067] This application provides a printing roller electroplating tank, which, in addition to the above-mentioned technical features, also includes the following technical features.

[0068] like Figure 3As shown, the adjusting baffle 210 includes an outer plate 211 and an inner plate 212, as well as a connecting rod 213 connecting the outer plate 211 and the inner plate 212. The outer plate 211 is located on the outside of the electroplating tank body 100, the inner plate 212 is located on the inside of the electroplating tank body 100, and the connecting rod 213 passes through the adjusting port 110 to connect the inner plate 212 and the outer plate 211.

[0069] In this embodiment, the adjusting baffle 210 employs a combination design of an outer plate 211, an inner plate 212, and a connecting rod 213, ensuring good support for both the inner and outer sides of the electroplating tank. This not only enhances the overall stability of the baffle but also allows it to better adapt to the shape and size of the electroplating tank during movement, reducing swaying and friction caused by shape mismatch. Simultaneously, both the outer plate 211 and the inner plate 212 are in close contact with the electroplating tank body 100, ensuring a tight seal between the adjusting baffle 210 and the electroplating tank. This close contact reduces the possibility of electroplating solution leakage from the adjusting port 110, thereby maintaining the cleanliness and stability of the liquid within the electroplating tank.

[0070] Furthermore, both the outer plate 211 and the inner plate 212 are attached to the electroplating tank body 100, and the outer plate 211, the inner plate 212 and the connecting rod 213 are all made of titanium plate.

[0071] The outer plate 211, inner plate 212, and connecting rod 213 are all made of titanium plate. Titanium plate has excellent corrosion resistance and high strength, which allows the adjusting baffle 210 to withstand the corrosion and mechanical stress of electroplating solution for a long time, thus extending the service life of the baffle. At the same time, the lightweight nature of titanium plate also reduces the overall weight of the adjusting baffle 210, making it easier and more efficient to move.
