Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drying device technology, specifically a cleaning and drying device for electroplated parts. Background Technology

[0002] After electroplating is completed, parts need to be cleaned and dried promptly. Common cleaning and drying devices for electroplated parts include hot air dryers, ovens, and electroplating parts drying boxes. Among these, electroplating parts drying boxes are specifically designed for drying electroplated parts. They typically have a hot air circulation system to ensure even heating of the electroplated parts during the drying process. Furthermore, electroplating parts drying boxes feature intelligent operation and ergonomic design, facilitating loading, unloading, and operation by workers. The size and temperature range of the drying box can also be customized to meet the drying requirements of different electroplated parts.

[0003] In the prior art, patent application CN202022433628.4 discloses a hydrogen removal drying oven for zinc-nickel alloy electroplating of automotive parts, including a box body and two doors rotatably connected to the front surface of the box body. Multiple placement trays are provided on the inner side of the box body. Two bottom inserts are symmetrically fixed to the bottom surface of each placement tray, and corresponding U-shaped side supports are fixed to the inner walls of both sides of the box body. The bottom end of each bottom insert extends through to the bottom of the U-shaped side support. The placement trays are easily assembled and disassembled through the bottom inserts, U-shaped side supports, T-shaped pins, through pin holes, insertion holes, and locking mechanisms, thus facilitating installation and subsequent cleaning of the placement trays and solving the problem of inconvenient assembly and disassembly of the placement trays in the original device.

[0004] However, in the existing electroplating drying oven, when drying multiple parts of different heights in layers, the layer height between the trays can only be changed by removing some of the trays, and the height of the trays cannot be finely adjusted. This results in a large vertical space between the tray at the top of the part and the part after the part is placed in the body (1) of the electroplating drying oven. This vertical space is wasted, resulting in a small number of parts that the electroplating drying oven can dry at one time. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cleaning and drying device for electroplated parts, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a cleaning and drying device for electroplated parts, comprising: an electroplated parts drying box body, a guide rail provided on the inner wall of the electroplated parts drying box body, a slider slidably connected in the guide rail, a telescopic rod mounting groove provided at one end of the slider, a telescopic rod movably inserted into the telescopic rod mounting groove, a top plate fixed at one end of the telescopic rod, a rubber pad fixed at the other end of the top plate, and a support plate provided at the top of the slider.

[0007] Preferably, the telescopic rod has a rectangular rod structure, with one end of the telescopic rod fixed to the top plate extending out of the telescopic rod mounting groove. A spring plate is fixedly fitted onto the telescopic rod body, and the spring plate is slidably connected in the telescopic rod mounting groove. A spring is fitted onto the telescopic rod body, with one end of the spring abutting against the surface of the spring plate and the other end of the spring abutting against the inner wall of the telescopic rod mounting groove.

[0008] Preferably, the slider has a cam groove inside, a cam is rotatably connected in the cam groove, the cam groove is connected to the telescopic rod mounting groove, and one end of the telescopic rod abuts against the surface of the cam.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom end of the slider has a rod hole that communicates with the cam groove, and a screw rod is rotatably connected in the rod hole.

[0010] Preferably, the screw rod has a round rod structure, with one end extending into the cam groove and being inserted and fixed on the surface of the cam, and the other end extending into the rod hole and fitted with a knob.

[0011] Preferably, the top of the slider is fixed with a support plate positioning rod, and a support plate positioning hole is opened on the surface of the support plate, and the support plate positioning rod is movably inserted into the support plate positioning hole.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This utility model proposes a cleaning and drying device for electroplated parts. The trays are positioned within the drying chamber via sliders. When placing parts of various heights into the drying chamber, parts of similar heights are first placed on the bottom layer, i.e., on the inner wall of the bottom end of the drying chamber. Then, the height of the bottom set of trays is adjusted by shortening the distance the telescopic rod extends from its mounting slot. This moves the top plate and rubber pad away from the inner wall of the guide rail, eliminating friction between the rubber pad and the guide rail. The height of the sliders within the guide rail can then be adjusted. This adjustment of the sliders at all four corners of the set of trays allows for height adjustment. When the set of trays approaches the top of the part below it... After the extension rod extends further out of the mounting slot, it pushes the top plate and rubber pad, pressing the rubber pad against the inner wall of the guide rail. The slider is also pressed against the inner wall of the other end of the guide rail. This generates significant friction between the slider and the inner wall of the guide rail, limiting the height of the slider within the guide rail and thus limiting the height of the tray. A new batch of parts with similar heights is then placed on this tray, and the same operation is performed on the previous tray. This process is repeated for each group of trays, maximizing the use of the internal space of the electroplating drying oven and allowing more parts to be dried at once. Attached Figure Description

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clear and complete, the embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only some, not all, embodiments of this utility model, and are merely used to explain the embodiments of this utility model. They are not intended to limit the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0022] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a cleaning and drying device for electroplated parts, comprising: an electroplated parts drying box body 1, a guide rail 2 provided on the inner wall of the electroplated parts drying box body 1, a slider 3 slidably connected in the guide rail 2, a telescopic rod mounting groove 6 provided at one end of the slider 3, a telescopic rod 7 movably inserted into the telescopic rod mounting groove 6, a top plate 10 fixed at one end of the telescopic rod 7, a rubber pad 11 fixed at the other end of the top plate 10, and a support plate 16 provided at the top of the slider 3.

[0023] In actual use, the tray 16 is set in the body 1 of the electroplating drying oven via the slider 3. When placing parts of various heights into the body 1, parts of similar heights are first placed on the bottom layer, that is, on the inner wall of the bottom end of the body 1. Then, the height of the bottom set of trays 16 is adjusted by shortening the distance the telescopic rod 7 extends out of the telescopic rod mounting slot 6. This moves the top plate 10 and the rubber pad 11 away from the inner wall of the guide rail 2, eliminating the friction between the rubber pad 11 and the inner wall of the guide rail 2. Then, the height of the slider 3 in the guide rail 2 can be adjusted. This adjustment of the sliders 3 at the four corners of the set of trays 16 will adjust the height of the set of trays 16. When the set of trays 16 approaches the top of the parts below it, the telescopic rod 7 is... As the extension rod 7 extends further into the mounting slot 6, it pushes the top plate 10 and the rubber pad 11, pressing the rubber pad 11 against the inner wall of the guide rail 2. The slider 3 is also pressed against the inner wall of the other end of the guide rail 2. This generates significant friction between the slider 3 and the rubber pad 11 and the inner wall of the guide rail 2. This friction limits the height of the slider 3 in the guide rail 2, thereby limiting the height of the tray 16. Then, a new batch of parts with similar heights is placed on this set of trays 16. The same operation is then performed on the previous set of trays 16. This process is repeated for each set of trays 16. By performing this operation on each set of trays 16, the internal space of the electroplating drying oven body 1 can be utilized to the maximum extent, allowing the electroplating drying oven body 1 to dry more parts at a time.

[0024] Example 2: Based on Example 1, in order to adjust the distance the telescopic rod 7 extends from the telescopic rod mounting slot 6, the telescopic rod 7 has a rectangular rod structure. One end of the telescopic rod 7 fixed to the top plate 10 extends out of the telescopic rod mounting slot 6. A spring plate 8 is fixedly fitted onto the rod body of the telescopic rod 7, and the spring plate 8 is slidably connected in the telescopic rod mounting slot 6. A spring 9 is fitted onto the rod body of the telescopic rod 7, with one end of the spring 9 abutting against the surface of the spring plate 8 and the other end of the spring 9 abutting against the inner wall of the telescopic rod mounting slot 6. The slider 3 has a cam groove 4 inside, and a cam 5 is rotatably connected in the cam groove 4. The cam groove 4 is connected to the telescopic rod mounting groove 6. One end of the telescopic rod 7 abuts against the surface of the cam 5. The bottom end of the slider 3 has a rod hole 12, which is connected to the cam groove 4. A screwing rod 13 is rotatably connected in the rod hole 12. The screwing rod 13 has a round rod structure. One end of the screwing rod 13 extends into the cam groove 4 and is inserted and fixed to the surface of the cam 5. The other end of the screwing rod 13 extends into the rod hole 12 and is fitted with a knob 14.

[0025] When the telescopic rod 7 extends a long distance from the telescopic rod mounting slot 6, the protruding part of the cam 5 abuts against the end of the telescopic rod 7, and the spring 9 is compressed by the inner wall of the telescopic rod mounting slot 6 and the spring plate 8. When it is necessary to shorten the distance the telescopic rod 7 extends from the telescopic rod mounting slot 6, the knob 14 is turned 90 degrees. The knob 14 drives the rotating rod 13 to rotate in the rod hole 12, and the rotating rod 13 drives the cam 5 to rotate, so that the protruding part of the cam 5 pushes against the end of the telescopic rod 7, and the compressed spring 9 pushes the spring plate 8. Moving towards the cam 5, the spring plate 8 drives the telescopic rod 7 to move towards the cam 5, causing one end of the telescopic rod 7 to extend into the cam groove 4, thus shortening the portion of the telescopic rod 7 extending out of the telescopic rod mounting groove 6. When it is necessary to change the distance the telescopic rod 7 extends out of the telescopic rod mounting groove 6 again, the knob 14 is turned 90 degrees in the opposite direction. The protruding part of the cam 5 gradually moves closer to the end of the telescopic rod 7, thereby pushing the telescopic rod 7 out of the cam groove 4, and the other end of the telescopic rod 7 extends out of the telescopic rod mounting groove 6 a longer distance.

[0026] Example 3: Based on Example 2, in order to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the slider 3 and the support plate 16, a support plate positioning rod 15 is fixed at the top of the slider 3, and a support plate positioning hole 17 is opened on the surface of the support plate 16, and the support plate positioning rod 15 is movably inserted into the support plate positioning hole 17.

[0027] When it is necessary to install the tray 16 on the surface of the slider 3, simply align the tray positioning hole 17 with the tray positioning rod 15 and place the tray 16 on the top of the slider 3. The tray positioning rod 15 is inserted into the tray positioning hole 17 to complete the installation of the tray 16. When it is necessary to remove the tray 16, simply lift the tray 16 upwards to allow the tray positioning rod 15 to exit from the tray positioning hole 17, and then the tray 16 can be removed from the body 1 of the electroplating drying oven.

[0028] In actual use, the tray 16 is set in the body 1 of the electroplating drying oven via the slider 3. When placing parts of various heights into the body 1, parts of similar heights are first placed on the bottom layer, that is, on the inner wall of the bottom end of the body 1. Then, the height of the bottom set of trays 16 is adjusted by shortening the distance the telescopic rod 7 extends out of the telescopic rod mounting slot 6. This moves the top plate 10 and the rubber pad 11 away from the inner wall of the guide rail 2, eliminating the friction between the rubber pad 11 and the inner wall of the guide rail 2. Then, the height of the slider 3 in the guide rail 2 can be adjusted. By adjusting the sliders 3 at all four corners of the set of trays 16 in this way, the height of the set of trays 16 can be adjusted. After the 16th plate approaches the top of the part below it, the telescopic rod 7 extends a longer distance from the telescopic rod mounting slot 6. The telescopic rod 7 pushes the top plate 10 and the rubber pad 11, pressing the rubber pad 11 tightly against the inner wall of the guide rail 2. The slider 3 is also pressed tightly against the inner wall of the other end of the guide rail 2. This generates significant friction between the slider 3 and the rubber pad 11 and the inner wall of the guide rail 2. This friction limits the height of the slider 3 within the guide rail 2, thereby limiting the height of the pallet 16. Then, a new batch of parts with similar heights is placed on this set of pallets 16. The same operation is then performed on the previous set of pallets 16, and so on, until all sets of pallets 16 are dried to a greater extent. The internal space of the box body 1 is utilized to allow more parts to be dried at once in the electroplating drying box body 1. When the telescopic rod 7 extends a long distance from the telescopic rod mounting slot 6, the protruding part of the cam 5 abuts against the end of the telescopic rod 7, and the spring 9 is compressed by the inner wall of the telescopic rod mounting slot 6 and the spring plate 8. When it is necessary to shorten the distance that the telescopic rod 7 extends from the telescopic rod mounting slot 6, the knob 14 is turned 90 degrees. The knob 14 drives the rotating rod 13 to rotate in the rod hole 12. The rotating rod 13 then drives the cam 5 to rotate, so that the protruding part of the cam 5 is against the end of the telescopic rod 7. The compressed spring 9 pushes the spring plate 8 to move closer to the cam 5, and the spring plate 8 drives the telescopic rod 7 to move closer to the cam 5. The directional movement of cam 5 causes one end of telescopic rod 7 to extend into cam groove 4, thereby shortening the portion of telescopic rod 7 extending out of telescopic rod mounting groove 6. When it is necessary to change the distance of telescopic rod 7 extending out of telescopic rod mounting groove 6 again, turn knob 14 in the opposite direction by 90 degrees. The protruding part of cam 5 gradually moves closer to the end of telescopic rod 7, thereby pushing telescopic rod 7 out of cam groove 4. Then, the distance of the other end of telescopic rod 7 extending out of telescopic rod mounting groove 6 becomes longer. When it is necessary to install tray 16 on the surface of slider 3, simply align tray positioning hole 17 with tray positioning rod 15 and then place tray 16 on the top of slider 3. The tray positioning rod 15 is inserted into the tray positioning hole 17 to complete the installation of tray 16.When it is necessary to remove the tray 16, simply lift the tray 16 upwards to allow the tray positioning rod 15 to retract from the tray positioning hole 17, and then the tray 16 can be removed from the body 1 of the electroplating drying oven.

[0029] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
