[0028] In order to prevent product stacking and improve the quality of electroplating, the technical scheme puts forward a plating basket, which comprises:
[0029] The body 100 has a cavity with a top opening, which is used to accommodate products and liquid medicine, and the outer peripheral wall of the body 100 is densely covered with overflow holes 110, which are in communication with the cavity;
[0030] The disturbance body 200 is arranged on the inner side wall of the cavity and extends in a spiral shape.
[0031] In the technical scheme of the utility model, the plating basket comprises a body 100, the body 100 has a cavity with a top opening, which is used to place products and liquid medicine, and the outer peripheral wall of the body 100 is provided with overflow holes 110, which are in communication with the cavity to allow the liquid medicine to enter the cavity; in addition, the inner side wall of the cavity is also provided with a disturbance body 200 extending in a spiral shape, so that when the body 100 rotates, the disturbance body 200 can rotate and stir the liquid medicine inside the cavity to make the liquid medicine and the products tumble, thereby reducing the possibility of product stacking and improving the quality of electroplating.
[0032] Specifically, in an embodiment of the present application, the body 100 is a container with a top opening, and a cavity is formed inside the container. The cavity can accommodate the products to be processed and the plating solution required in the electroplating process. The outer peripheral wall of the body 100 is densely covered with overflow holes 110, which are in communication with the cavity to allow the electroplating solution to smoothly enter and flow out of the cavity through the overflow holes 110, ensuring that the plating solution can circulate and be uniformly distributed. Turbulators 200 are arranged on the inner side wall of the cavity. The turbulators 200 can be protruding ribs and extend in a spiral shape. When the plating basket rotates, the turbulators 200 can agitate the plating solution in the cavity, causing the plating solution to flow turbulently in the cavity and also causing the products in the cavity to move correspondingly. Since the products are constantly moving, the contact opportunities between them are greatly reduced, effectively avoiding the overlapping of the products and ensuring the quality of electroplating.
[0033] In an embodiment of the present application, the turbulators 200 are integrally formed with the body 100. Integrally forming the turbulators 200 with the body 100 can improve the structural strength and stability of the entire plating basket.
[0034] In an embodiment of the present application, the diameter of the overflow holes 110 is 0.1mm to 0.2mm. A diameter of 0.1mm to 0.2mm can ensure that the electroplating solution smoothly enters and flows out of the cavity through the overflow holes 110, thereby maintaining good circulation. In addition, for small-sized or flaky products, a diameter of 0.1mm to 0.2mm can effectively prevent these products from escaping from the overflow holes 110, thereby reducing the risk of loss during production.
[0035] In an embodiment of the present application, in order to improve temperature resistance and prolong service life, the material of the plating basket is PP material. The PP material can resist chemical erosion, ensuring that the plating basket will not be damaged due to corrosion during long-term use. In addition, polypropylene has a high melting point. Even under high temperature conditions, the PP material can maintain its shape and structural integrity, ensuring the reliability and durability of the plating basket. Moreover, the PP material does not leave residues in the electroplating process, preventing waste of the plating solution.
[0036] In an embodiment of the present application, the plating basket further comprises a cover 300, which is arranged at the opening and seals the cavity. During the electroplating process, the cover 300 can prevent the products from escaping from the top opening, thereby avoiding the loss of products and affecting production efficiency. The design of the cover 300 allows the electroplating solution to maintain a better sealed state in the cavity, reducing the evaporation and splashing of the plating solution. The cover 300 can also prevent external dust, impurities or other contaminants from entering the electroplating solution, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the products and the purity of the plating layer.
[0037] In an embodiment of the utility model, the cover body 300 is transparent, the transparent cover body 300 allows the operator to directly observe the electroplating process in the cavity, without opening the cover body 300, the state of product and the condition of the medicine solution can be monitored in real time, and the operator can timely find and handle possible problems (such as product stacking, medicine solution turbidity etc.).
[0038] The utility model discloses further a kind of electroplating equipment, comprising:
[0039] Container, with the accommodating groove of top opening, container is used to accommodate medicine solution;
[0040] Rotary drive, with fixed end and rotating end, fixed end is located at the opening of container, and rotating end extends to the accommodating groove;
[0041] Plating basket, be located in accommodating groove and be connected with rotating end, plating basket is the plating basket in above any embodiment.
[0042] Since the electroplating equipment adopts all technical solutions of above-mentioned all embodiments, at least has all beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of above-mentioned embodiments, here will not be repeated.
[0043] In an embodiment of the utility model, the electroplating equipment further includes helical blade, helical blade is located in plating basket and rotates in plating basket, helical blade can agitate medicine solution in plating basket, can make medicine solution form vortex, so that product is more easily dispersed with the flow of medicine solution, thereby preventing product overlapping.
[0044] In an embodiment of the utility model, the spiral direction of the spoiler 200 is opposite to the spiral direction of the helical blade. When the plating basket rotates, the spoiler 200 on the inner side wall of the plating basket will drive the medicine solution to spiral flow in one direction, while the helical blade will drive the medicine solution to spiral flow in the other direction. The flow in the two opposite directions interacts with each other, significantly enhancing the mixing and circulation of the medicine solution, and also forming a stronger vortex in the plating basket, making the product more easily and uniformly dispersed, and also having more uniform contact with the medicine solution, further improving the plating layer quality.
[0045] The above is only exemplary embodiment of the utility model, and not therefore limit the patent range of the utility model, any equivalent structural transformation made by using the utility model specification and drawing contents, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection range of the utility model.
