Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of product mounting technology, and in particular to an anode mount and anode treatment equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Some metal-plastic composites, such as aluminum-plastic composites, typically consist of a metal part and a plastic part bonded to the metal part. The metal part usually includes a planar base and sidewalls surrounding the base and protruding from it. The plastic part is disposed on the inner or outer surface of the sidewalls. If anodizing is required during the molding of the metal part, it can be placed in an anodizing tank by clamping the sidewalls.

[0003] However, the above clamping method may cause gaps and deformation at the product edges, and because there are plastic parts on the side walls, poor electrical conductivity may occur between the clamping parts and the metal parts, which may result in the yield rate after the anodizing process cannot be guaranteed.

The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application. The reagents and materials described in the following embodiments are all commercially available.

[0031] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments.

[0032] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art.

[0033] Some embodiments of this application are described in detail. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0034] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 One embodiment of this application provides an anodizing fixture 100 for anodizing a product 200, such as... Figure 2As shown, product 200 includes a metal substrate 220 and a plastic 210 disposed at the edge of the metal substrate 220.

The fixing member 22 and the conductive sliding mechanism 24 are fixed to the frame 21. The fixing member 22 includes a metal spring 221 and a metal fixing pin 222. One end of the metal fixing pin 222 passes through the plastic 210 to fix the product 200, and the other end of the metal fixing pin 222 is connected to the metal spring 221. The conductive sliding mechanism 24 includes a conductive member 243, which contacts the metal substrate 220.

[0036] This application prevents the product 200 from slipping by passing the metal fixing pin 222 through the plastic 210, which forms a wrap around the metal fixing pin 222. Furthermore, compared to clamping the sidewalls of the product 200, this application reduces the probability of notches and deformation at the edges of the product 200. Moreover, the conductive element 243 in the conductive sliding mechanism 24 contacts the metal substrate 220 as a conductive point, improving the conductivity between the anode holder 100 and the metal substrate 220, thereby improving the yield of the anodizing process. To improve the stability and conductivity of the anode holder 100 in fixing the product 200, multiple fixing elements 22 and multiple conductive sliding mechanisms 24 can be provided.

[0037] In some embodiments, the number of suspension structures 20 includes, but is not limited to, six, and the suspension structures 20 may be spaced apart along the extension direction of the main rod 15 on one side or opposite sides of the main rod 15. In this embodiment, the number of suspension structures 20 is six, and the six suspension structures 20 are spaced apart along the extension direction of the main rod 15 on opposite sides of the main rod 15.

[0038] In some embodiments, the number of fasteners 22 includes, but is not limited to, six sets, which can be adjusted according to actual conditions. Furthermore, the position of the fasteners 22 on the frame 21 is only required to meet the requirements for fixing the product 200. In this embodiment, six sets of fasteners 22 are provided on one frame 21, with four sets of fasteners 22 located on the same side of the frame 21 and the remaining two sets of fasteners 22 located on the opposite side of the frame 21.

[0039] In some embodiments, the frame 21, the metal spring 221, and the metal fixing pin 222 can also be made of suitable metal materials, as long as they meet the actual needs of this application. In this embodiment, the frame 21, the metal spring 221, and the metal fixing pin 222 are all made of titanium.

[0040] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the main rod structure 10 includes a main rod 15 and at least one positioning component 16 and at least one support component 17 fixed to the main rod 15. The at least one positioning component 16 and the at least one support component 17 correspond one-to-one. To simultaneously suspend multiple suspension structures 20 on the main rod 15, multiple positioning components 16 and multiple support components 17 can be provided, and these components are alternately arranged along the extension direction of the main rod structure 10. The positioning component 16 includes a positioning seat 161 and a positioning groove 1611. The positioning seat 161 is provided with a support guide rail 1612, which is used to position one side of the frame 21. The support component 17 is used to support the opposite side of the frame 21. Therefore, the positioning component 16 and the support component 17 form a set of support structures for fixing the suspension structure 20 to the main rod 15.

[0041] In some embodiments, the main rod structure 10 further includes a main rod locking screw 11, a main rod head 12, a main rod positioning groove 13, an identification code plate 14, and a main rod positioning block 18. The main rod head 12 is located at the end of the main rod 15, and the main rod locking screw 11 is located on the main rod head 12. The main rod locking screw 11 is used to lock the main rod 15 in a predetermined position, allowing the anode hanger 100 to be suspended above the anode treatment tank (not shown). The main rod head 12 may have a main rod positioning groove 13, through which the main rod 15 can be positioned on the main rod head 12. The identification code plate 14 is located on the main rod head 12 and may have an identification code (such as a QR code). When the product is suspended on the anode hanger 100, the identification code on the product itself can be linked to the identification code on the identification code plate 14, facilitating product traceability.

[0042] In this embodiment, the positioning assembly 16 further includes a fixing plate 162 and an adjusting member 163. The fixing plate 162 is connected to the positioning seat 161; the adjusting member 163 includes an adjusting stud 1631 and a nut 1632.

The adjusting member 163 is used to fix the frame 21 to the support guide rail 1612. When the adjusting stud 1631 passes through the nut 1632 and is in close contact with the frame 21, it can stabilize the structure of the entire frame 21, ensuring the overall levelness of the frame 21 while also facilitating the accurate positioning of the product 200, which is beneficial for the subsequent anodizing treatment of the product 200 surface.

[0043] Please see Figure 6 and Figure 7In this embodiment, the support group 17 includes a support rod 171 fixedly connected to the main rod 15 and support seats 172 fixed to both ends of the support rod 171. The support seats 172 are used to mount the suspension structure 20.

[0044] In some embodiments, each end of the support rod 171 is provided with a support hole 1711, and the support base 172 is also provided with a through hole 1721 corresponding to the support hole 1711. Each end of the support rod 171 is provided with a locking member 173 that penetrates the support hole 1711 and the through hole 1721. The locking member 173 is used to fix the support base 172 to both ends of the support rod 171. The locking member 173 includes a locking screw 1731 and a locking nut 1732. After the locking screw 1731 penetrates the support hole 1711 and the through hole 1721, the locking nut 1732 is sleeved and connected to the locking screw 1731, thereby fixing the support base 172 to the support rod 171.

[0045] In this embodiment, the suspension structure 20 also includes a positioning block 23, which is fixed to the frame 21 and is used to engage with the positioning groove 1611, so as to better fix the frame 21 to the support rail 1612.

[0046] Please see Figure 8 In this embodiment, the conductive sliding mechanism 24 further includes a fixed base 241 and a slider 24. The conductive sliding mechanism 24 is fixed to the frame 21 via the fixed base 241, which has a groove 2413. The slider 24 is slidably connected to the groove 2413, and a conductive element 243 is disposed on the slider 24. In this application, the slider 24 is slidably connected to the groove 2413, which can drive the conductive element 243 disposed on the slider 24 to reciprocate along the sliding direction of the slider 24, thereby controlling the distance between the conductive element 243 and the metal substrate 220, facilitating the formation of conductive sites on the surface of the metal substrate 220.

[0047] In this embodiment, the fixed base 241 is also provided with a first limiting groove 2411 and a second limiting groove 2412, which are spaced apart on the fixed base 241; the conductive sliding mechanism 24 also includes a slider handle 244, which is used to pass through the slider 242, and the slider handle 244 can be selectively engaged with the first limiting groove 2411 or the second limiting groove 2412.

[0048] Please see Figure 9 In this embodiment, the conductive sliding mechanism 24 further includes an elastic element 245 and a limiting groove 246. The elastic element 245 is sleeved on the slider handle 244. The limiting groove 246 is located at one end of the slider 242. The slider handle 244 passes through the limiting groove 246 and is fixed in the limiting groove 246 by the elastic element 245.

[0049] During the process of the slider handle 244 in the conductive sliding mechanism 24 sliding from the first limiting groove 2411 to the second limiting groove 2412, the slider 242 slides synchronously for the same distance. At this time, the slider handle 244 is locked in the second limiting groove 2412 under the action of the elastic element 245, which plays the role of fixing the slider 242.

[0050] In this embodiment, the elastic element 245 is specifically a spring. In other embodiments, the elastic element 245 may also be other structures capable of elastic deformation.

[0051] In this embodiment, a sliding hole 2421 is provided on the slider 242. The sliding hole 2421 is arranged along the extension direction of the slider 242 and passes through the other end of the slider 242 away from the limiting groove 246. The conductive component 243 includes a conductive slider 2431 and a conductive needle 2432. The conductive needle 2432 is disposed on the conductive slider 2431. The conductive slider 2431 is slidably connected to the sliding hole 242. The conductive needle 2432 is used to contact the metal substrate 220 to form a conductive position.

[0052] In some embodiments, the number of conductive pins 2432 includes, but is not limited to, two, as long as it meets the actual needs of this application. In this embodiment, there are two conductive pins 2432, which are spaced apart on the conductive slider 2431.

[0053] In this embodiment, the conductive needle 2432 and the conductive slider 2431 are made of tungsten metal. In some embodiments, the conductive needle 2432 and the conductive slider 2431 may be made of other conductive metals.

[0054] Please see Figure 9 and Figure 10 In this embodiment, the conductive slider 2431 is also provided with a screw hole 247 and an adjusting screw 248. The screw hole 247 passes through the conductive slider 2431, and the adjusting screw 248 passes through the conductive slider 2431 and the screw hole 247. The adjusting screw 248 is used to adjust the sliding position of the conductive slider 2431 in the sliding hole 2421, thereby adjusting the distance between the conductive needle 2432 and the metal substrate 220.

[0055] The conductive slider 2431 can slide back and forth within the sliding hole 2421 via the adjusting screw 248. When the conductive slider 2431 slides to a certain distance, the conductive pin 2432 located on the conductive slider 2431 makes close contact with the surface of the metal substrate 220 to form a current loop, enabling the anodizing treatment of the product 200 to proceed smoothly. In addition, the conductive slider 2431 can be flexibly adjusted according to the changes in the flatness and shape of the product 200, while solving the problem of incomplete contact between the conductive pin 2432 and the product 200 caused by the difficulty in fixing the conductive slider 2431 and its telescopic distance.

[0056] This application also provides an anodizing apparatus (not shown), including an anodizing tank (not shown) and the aforementioned anode hanger 100 placed inside the anodizing tank (not shown).

[0057] The anode holder 100 provided in this application secures the product 200 to the suspension structure 20 by providing metal fixing pins 222 on the frame 21, allowing one end of the metal fixing pins 222 to pass through the plastic 210 at the edge of the product 200. Simultaneously, compared to clamping the product's sidewalls, this application reduces the probability of notches and deformation at the edge of the product 200. Furthermore, the conductive element 243 in the conductive sliding mechanism 24 contacts the metal substrate 220 as a conductive point, improving the conductivity between the anode holder 100 and the metal substrate 220, thereby improving the yield of the anodizing process.

[0058] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application and are not intended to limit it. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions to the technical solutions of this application should not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this application.
