Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroplating equipment technology, specifically to an electroplating equipment for producing straight-cylinder titanium targets with a feeding structure. Background Technology

[0002] Electroplating is a surface treatment technique that deposits a layer of another metal or alloy onto a metal surface through an electrolytic process. The purpose of this process is to protect the base metal from oxidation (e.g., rusting) while enhancing its wear resistance, conductivity, reflectivity, corrosion resistance, and aesthetic appearance. In the production of titanium targets, electroplating is used to form a protective film on its surface to achieve these objectives.

[0003] Extensive searches revealed CN215050800U, which discloses an electroplating device for producing straight-cylinder titanium targets with a feeding structure. This device uses two anode rods as anodes and a metal mesh tank and the straight-cylinder titanium target to be electroplated as cathodes to achieve electroplating. During electroplating, the rotation of the drive wheel of the feeding assembly drives several isolation metal plates on a transmission belt to move. These isolation metal plates then push the straight-cylinder titanium target to move inside the electroplating tank, thus achieving the purpose of moving the feeding plate for electroplating.

[0004] In existing technologies, the aerator aerates the electroplating tank during use to make the electroplating more uniform. However, when the aerator is not turned on, electroplating liquid can enter, which can damage the aerator. At the same time, during the electroplating operation, most of the components in the feeding assembly are completely immersed in the electroplating liquid and will also be electroplated to some extent, which will affect the electroplating efficiency of the workpiece. Therefore, a straight-cylinder electroplating equipment for titanium target production with a feeding structure is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a straight-cylinder titanium target production electroplating equipment with a feeding structure, which has the advantages of avoiding damage to the aerator during electroplating and reducing the impact of electroplating on unrelated mechanisms during electroplating, thereby affecting the electroplating efficiency of the workpiece. It solves the problems of internal damage to the equipment caused by electroplating solution and low efficiency during electroplating operation.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a straight-cylinder electroplating equipment for producing titanium targets with a feeding structure, including an electroplating tank, an aeration device fixedly installed on the back of the electroplating tank, and feeding devices fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the electroplating tank. The electroplating tank includes a tank body and a bottom tank, the bottom tank is fixedly installed at the bottom of the tank body, and an air injection pipe and a liquid discharge pipe are connected and installed at the bottom of the bottom tank. The air injection pipe is bent upward at ninety degrees and connected and installed in connection with the aeration device.

[0007] The feeding device includes an electric telescopic rod, and a top plate is fixedly installed on the top of the electric telescopic rod. The top plate is made of hard rubber. A placement crossbar is fixedly installed on one side of each of the two top plates. The placement crossbar is made of stainless steel.

[0008] Preferably, the electroplating tank further includes a mounting frame, which is fixedly installed on the outside of the tank. The mounting frame has slots on both sides of its top to embed limit sleeves, and a control switch electrically connected to the electric telescopic rod is provided on the front of the mounting frame. In this design, the mounting frame is fixed to the outside of the tank, providing additional support and enhancing the stability of the entire electroplating tank.

[0009] The embedded design of the limit sleeve makes the movement of the electric telescopic rod more stable and precise, reducing operational errors.

[0010] The electrical connection design between the control switch and the electric telescopic pole allows operators to easily control the extension and retraction of the electric telescopic pole, improving operational convenience and safety.

[0011] Preferably, both the tank body and the bottom tank are made of fiberglass, and a screen made of rigid plastic is fixedly installed at the bottom of the tank body. The use of fiberglass for the tank body and bottom tank provides excellent corrosion resistance, making it suitable for long-term storage and use of electroplating solutions.

[0012] The screen is made of rigid plastic, which is easy to clean and replace, reducing maintenance costs and time.

[0013] The combination of fiberglass and rigid plastics provides excellent wear and chemical resistance, extending the service life of the equipment.

[0014] Preferably, a drain valve is connected to the end of the drain pipe facing away from the tank. The drain valve is made of plastic ball valve. The design of the drain valve allows for precise control of the draining process, avoiding waste of electroplating solution and environmental pollution.

[0015] Drain valves made of plastic ball valve material also have good corrosion resistance and are suitable for use in electroplating environments.

[0016] The design of the plastic ball valve makes the drainage operation simpler and reduces operational complexity.

[0017] Preferably, a slide is fixedly installed at the bottom of the top plate, and the bottom end of the slide is slidably installed inside the limiting sleeve. The design of the slide allows the top plate to slide freely within the limiting sleeve, improving the movement flexibility of the feeding device.

[0018] The carriage is fixedly installed at the bottom of the top plate, which enhances the stability of the top plate and reduces swaying during movement.

[0019] Preferably, partition plates are fixedly installed at equal intervals on the placement crossbar, and cylindrical titanium targets are suspended from the placement crossbar between adjacent partition plates by thin steel wire ropes. The equidistant fixing design of the partition plates ensures that the cylindrical titanium targets are evenly distributed, ensuring that each target material can be uniformly electroplated during the electroplating process.

[0020] The cylindrical titanium target design, suspended by a thin steel wire rope, allows the target to be quickly adjusted in position as needed, improving operational flexibility.

[0021] The steel wire rope suspension method reduces direct contact between the titanium target and the hard surface, thus lowering the risk of damage to the target material during the electroplating process.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0023] In this invention, the air injection pipe is designed with a 90-degree upward bend and connected to the aeration device. This design effectively prevents electroplating solution from entering the aeration device, protecting the aerator from corrosion and damage. This structure ensures the aeration device is not damaged by electroplating solution ingress when not in use, thus extending equipment lifespan and reducing maintenance costs. Simultaneously, this design helps maintain the cleanliness of the electroplating solution, preventing contamination due to equipment damage, thereby improving the uniformity and quality of the electroplating process.

[0024] The cylindrical titanium target is suspended from a horizontal bar by thin steel wire ropes. This suspension method reduces direct contact between the cylindrical titanium target and the hard surface inside the electroplating tank, lowering the risk of damage to the target material during electroplating. Simultaneously, this design allows the titanium target to be quickly repositioned as needed, improving operational flexibility. Furthermore, by reducing the number of structures involved in electroplating, the electroplating solution can be less applied to non-critical components, thereby reducing unnecessary material consumption and costs, and improving electroplating efficiency. The suspension method also facilitates the flow of the electroplating solution, resulting in a more uniform electroplating process and improved plating quality.

[0025] In summary, by reducing the damage of electroplating solutions to equipment and improving the uniformity of the electroplating process, the efficiency of electroplating equipment and the quality of electroplated products are effectively improved. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, one embodiment of this utility model is provided: a straight-cylinder titanium target production electroplating equipment with a feeding structure, including an electroplating tank 1, an aeration device 2 fixedly installed on the back of the electroplating tank 1, and feeding devices 3 fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the electroplating tank 1. The electroplating tank 1 includes a tank body 12 and a bottom tank 15. The bottom tank 15 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the tank body 12. An air injection pipe 151 and a drain pipe 152 are connected and installed at the bottom of the bottom tank 15. The air injection pipe 151 is bent upward at ninety degrees and connected and installed in connection with the aeration device 2.

[0034] The feeding device 3 includes an electric telescopic rod 31, with a top plate 33 fixedly installed on the top of the electric telescopic rod 31. The top plate 33 is made of hard rubber. A placement crossbar 34 is fixedly installed on one side of each of the two top plates 33. The placement crossbar 34 is made of stainless steel.

[0035] Specifically, the air injection pipe 151 is designed with a 90-degree upward bend and connected to the aeration device 2. This design effectively prevents the electroplating solution from entering the aeration device 2, protecting the aerator from corrosion and damage. This structure ensures that the aeration device 2 will not be damaged by the entry of electroplating solution when not in use, thus extending the equipment's service life and reducing maintenance costs. Simultaneously, this design helps maintain the cleanliness of the electroplating solution, preventing contamination due to equipment damage, thereby improving the uniformity and quality of the electroplating process.

[0036] The cylindrical titanium target is suspended from the horizontal bar 34 by a thin steel wire rope. This suspension method reduces direct contact between the cylindrical titanium target and the hard surface inside the electroplating tank 1, lowering the risk of damage to the target material during electroplating. Simultaneously, this design allows the titanium target to be quickly repositioned as needed, improving operational flexibility. Furthermore, by reducing the number of structures involved in electroplating, the electroplating solution can be less applied to non-critical components, thereby reducing unnecessary material consumption and costs, and improving electroplating efficiency. The suspension method also facilitates the flow of the electroplating solution, resulting in a more uniform electroplating process and improved plating quality.

[0037] In summary, by reducing the damage of electroplating solutions to equipment and improving the uniformity of the electroplating process, the efficiency of electroplating equipment and the quality of electroplated products are effectively improved.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] To improve the structural stability of the electroplating tank during use and facilitate the discharge of residual electroplating solution, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the electroplating tank 1 also includes a mounting bracket 11, which is fixedly installed on the outside of the tank body 12. The mounting bracket 11 has slots on both sides of its top and into which limit sleeves 13 are embedded. The front of the mounting bracket 11 is provided with a control switch 36 electrically connected to the electric telescopic rod 31. In this design, the mounting bracket 11 is fixed to the outside of the tank body 12, providing additional support and enhancing the stability of the entire electroplating tank 1.

[0040] The embedded design of the limiting sleeve 13 makes the movement of the electric telescopic rod 31 more stable and precise, reducing operational errors.

[0041] The electrical connection design between the control switch 36 and the electric telescopic pole 31 allows operators to easily control the extension and retraction of the electric telescopic pole 31, improving the convenience and safety of operation.

[0042] Furthermore, both the tank body 12 and the bottom tank 15 are made of fiberglass. A screen 14, made of rigid plastic, is fixedly installed at the bottom of the tank body 12. The design of using fiberglass for the tank body 12 and the bottom tank 15 is based on the fact that this material has good corrosion resistance and is suitable for long-term storage and use of electroplating solutions.

[0043] The screen 14 is made of hard plastic, which is easy to clean and replace, reducing maintenance costs and time.

[0044] The combination of fiberglass and rigid plastics provides excellent wear and chemical resistance, extending the service life of the equipment.

[0045] Furthermore, a drain valve 153 is connected to the end of the drain pipe 152 facing away from the tank body 12. The drain valve 153 is made of plastic ball valve material. The design of the drain valve 153 allows for precise control of the draining process, avoiding waste of electroplating solution and environmental pollution.

[0046] The 153 drain valve, made of plastic ball valve material, also has good corrosion resistance and is suitable for use in electroplating environments.

[0047] The design of the plastic ball valve makes the drainage operation simpler and reduces operational complexity.

[0048] Example 3

[0049] To facilitate the insertion and removal of workpieces during electroplating, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a slide 32 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the top plate 33, and the bottom end of the slide 32 is slidably installed inside the limiting sleeve 13. The design of the slide 32 allows the top plate 33 to slide freely within the limiting sleeve 13, improving the movement flexibility of the feeding device 3.

[0050] The slide 32 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the top plate 33, which enhances the stability of the top plate 33 and reduces swaying during movement.

[0051] Furthermore, partition plates 35 are fixedly installed at equal intervals on the placement crossbar 34, and cylindrical titanium targets are suspended from the placement crossbar 34 between adjacent partition plates 35 by thin steel wire ropes. The equidistant fixing design of the partition plates 35 in the design allows the cylindrical titanium targets to be evenly distributed, ensuring that each target material can be uniformly electroplated during the electroplating process.

[0052] The cylindrical titanium target design, suspended by a thin steel wire rope, allows the target to be quickly adjusted in position as needed, improving operational flexibility.

[0053] The steel wire rope suspension method reduces direct contact between the titanium target and the hard surface, thus lowering the risk of damage to the target material during the electroplating process.

[0054] When using this invention, before starting electroplating, check that all equipment is functioning properly, including the electroplating tank 1, aeration device 2, and feeding device 3, ensuring there is no damage or leakage. Suspend the cylindrical titanium target to be electroplated on the placement crossbar 34 using a thin steel wire rope for electroplating. Pour the electroplating solution directly into the electroplating tank 1, ensuring the solution level is below the bottom of the aeration device 2. Turn on the aeration device 2 on the back of the electroplating tank 1 to aerate the tank, making the electroplating more uniform. Place the anode rod into the electroplating solution, and clamp the two cathode rods onto the placement crossbar 34. Then, energize the system, using the electric telescopic rod 31 to move the placement crossbar 34 on the top plate 33. 4. The device moves downwards, allowing the cylindrical titanium target to enter the electroplating solution in the electroplating tank 1, thus achieving the purpose of moving and feeding the target for electroplating. During the electroplating process, the electric telescopic rod 31 is extended and retracted by the control switch 36 to adjust the position of the top plate 33 and the placement crossbar 34, ensuring uniform electroplating of the cylindrical titanium target. After the staged electroplating is completed, the power supply and aeration device 2 are turned off. The two placement crossbars 34 are then moved upwards by the electric telescopic rod 31 to remove the cylindrical titanium target after electroplating. The cylindrical titanium target to be electroplated is then reinstalled, and the electroplating operation continues. After the electroplating is completed, the equipment is cleaned and maintained to ensure that the equipment can operate normally the next time it is used.

[0055] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
