Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of VCP electroplating equipment, specifically to a high-efficiency electroplating tank structure for VCP electroplating equipment. Background Technology
[0002] VCP electroplating equipment is closely related to the structure of the electroplating tank. The tank design must consider corrosion resistance and material properties to adapt to the chemical properties of the electroplating solution. Workpieces move vertically via an in-tank transfer system; the tank structure must match the transfer system to ensure smooth, frictionless operation. The tank is equipped with a circulation system to maintain uniform electroplating solution, considering the layout of pumps, filters, etc. Anodes and cathodes are positioned above and below the tank, requiring adequate space and support. The tank integrates sensors and a control system to monitor electroplating parameters. Safety and maintainability are considered, including leak-proof design, venting, and easy cleaning. The size and shape of the tank affect production efficiency; a rational design improves throughput. The multifaceted relationship between the tank and the VCP equipment determines the equipment's functionality, efficiency, and reliability.
[0003] Publication number CN220393964U describes a stabilizing structure for an electroplating tank, comprising an electroplating tank, a bearing housing, and a stabilizing structure. The bearing housing is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the electroplating tank, and has threaded holes for fastening. Multiple sets of electroplating tanks are arranged inside the workshop, and the stabilizing structure securely connects two adjacent sets of electroplating tanks together. The stabilizing structure includes a connecting sleeve, threaded holes within the sleeve, an intermediate connecting rod, a connecting rod stud, and connecting bolts. Two sets of threaded holes are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the connecting sleeve. A connecting rod stud is fixedly installed on the intermediate connecting rod, with a stud diameter larger than the intermediate connecting rod diameter. The intermediate connecting rod is threaded into the threaded holes of the sleeve via the connecting rod stud. Intermediate connecting rods are provided in both sets of threaded holes within the sleeve.
[0004] The above technology utilizes components such as electroplating tanks, bearing seats, and stabilizing structures to ensure the electroplating tank remains highly stable during use. However, after a period of use, the electroplating tank needs to be cleaned, and cleaning a standard-sized electroplating tank is quite difficult.
[0005] Therefore, in view of this, we have studied and improved the existing shortcomings and proposed a high-efficiency electroplating tank structure for VCP electroplating equipment. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a high-efficiency electroplating tank structure for VCP electroplating equipment to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a high-efficiency electroplating tank structure for a VCP electroplating equipment, comprising: a tank shell, with holes at the edge of the top of the tank shell, an inner tank in the middle of the tank shell, a ferrule on the outer side of the inner tank, holes on both sides of the surface of the ferrule, a pressure plate between the bottom of the ferrule and the top edge of the tank shell, a pry bar at the top of the pressure plate, holes on both sides of the front end of the pressure plate, and inserts inserted into the holes on the surface of the ferrule, the holes on the front end of the pressure plate, and the holes at the top edge of the tank shell;
[0008] An auxiliary structure is provided between the outer shell of the tank and the inner tank.
[0009] Furthermore, the rocker plate and the pressure plate are fixedly connected, which facilitates the movement of the rocker plate by the pressure plate.
[0010] Furthermore, the long portion of the rocker plate has an upward-facing arc-shaped arch structure, which allows the arc-shaped arch structure of the rocker plate to better push the bottom end of the ribbed plate.
[0011] Furthermore, the overall structure of the pressure plate is a Z-shaped structure, which facilitates better force transmission from the pressure plate to the surface of the lifting clamp.
[0012] Furthermore, the auxiliary structure includes a liquid guide tube, an infusion chamber plate, a distribution plate, and a return pipe. The liquid guide tube is inserted into the lower end of the outer shell of the tank. The infusion chamber plate is installed at the top of the liquid guide tube. The distribution plate is installed at the top of the distribution plate. The return pipe is installed on the outer side of the distribution plate. A water guide port is opened on the surface of the distribution plate to facilitate the distribution plate to discharge the cleaning liquid or water in multiple streams.
[0013] Furthermore, the number of water guide ports on the surface of the liquid separator is the same as the number of return pipes to prevent insufficient installation of return pipes.
[0014] Furthermore, the area of the inner side of the return pipe is slightly larger than the area of the inner liner, which facilitates the installation of the return pipe on the outside of the inner liner.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] 1. In this utility model, after the inner tank is placed inside the outer shell of the tank, the outer rib of the inner tank contacts the top of the outer shell of the tank. Then, the insert rod is inserted into the holes opened in the rib, the pressure plate and the top of the outer shell of the tank. When the outer shell of the tank and the inner tank need to be cleaned separately, the pressure plate is pressed down, and the pressure plate drives the lifting clamp to push the bottom end of the rib upward. The rib moves the insert rod upward and separates it from the outer shell of the tank. In this way, when the operator cleans the outer shell of the tank and the inner tank, only a simple downward pressing action is needed to separate the outer shell of the tank and the inner tank.
[0017] 2. This utility model features a liquid guide tube that protrudes from the outer shell of the tank. The user introduces the cleaning solution or water into the liquid guide tube, which then guides the water into the infusion chamber plate. The infusion chamber plate then guides the cleaning solution or water into the distribution plate, which divides the water into multiple parts and guides them into the return tube. This return tube is positioned between the outer shell of the tank and the inner tank, filling the gap between the outer shell and the inner tank with water. At this point, both the interior of the outer shell and the exterior of the inner tank are cleaned. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.
[0025] like Figures 1-5As shown, a high-efficiency electroplating tank structure for VCP electroplating equipment includes: a tank shell 1, with holes at the edge of the top of the tank shell 1, an inner tank 5 located in the middle of the interior of the tank shell 1, a slatted plate 2 located on the outer side of the inner tank 5, holes on both sides of the surface of the slatted plate 2, a pressure plate 6 clamped between the bottom of the slatted plate 2 and the top edge of the tank shell 1, a lifting clamp 3 located at the top of the pressure plate 6, holes on both sides of the front end of the surface of the pressure plate 6, and insert rods 4 inserted into the holes on the surface of the slatted plate 2, the holes on the front end of the surface of the pressure plate 6, and the holes at the top edge of the tank shell 1.
[0026] An auxiliary structure 7 is provided between the outer shell 1 and the inner tank 5.
[0027] Furthermore, since the structure of the lifting clamp 3 is an L-shaped structure, and the top part of the lifting clamp 3 has a protruding arc-shaped structure, the arc-shaped structure of the lifting clamp 3 will abut against the bottom end of the truncated plate 2. Since the other end of the lifting clamp 3 is connected to the pressure plate 6, the pressure plate 6 itself is composed of an inverted S-shaped structure and an L-shaped part. When the user presses down on the L-shaped part of the pressure plate 6, the inverted S-shaped structure of the pressure plate 6 lifts the lifting clamp 3 upward. After being subjected to force, the lifting clamp 3 pushes the truncated plate 2 upward. At this time, the truncated plate 2 will gradually separate from the hole opened at the top edge of the outer shell 1 of the tank body along with the insertion rod 4. In this way, the outer shell 1 of the tank body and the inner tank body 5 will separate. The designer can also remove the L-shaped part of the pressure plate 6, only extending the edge of the inverted S-shape of the pressure plate 6. At this time, the pressure plate 6 can also play a lifting role. The designer can also enlarge the arc-shaped structure at the top of the lifting clamp 3 or increase the number of arc-shaped structures to make the lifting clamp 3 have enough force to lift the bottom end of the truncated plate 2.
[0028] This has resulted in the following effects and novel technologies:
[0029] The efficient electroplating tank structure design of the VCP electroplating equipment enables convenient assembly and disassembly. Through the ingenious design of the rocker arm 3 and pressure plate 6, the inner tank 5 can be quickly separated from the outer shell 1, greatly facilitating maintenance, cleaning, and replacement. Simultaneously, the fixing of the insertion rod 4 ensures the stability of the overall structure, and the arc-shaped structure of the rocker arm 3 enhances the fixing force, making the connection between the truncated plate 2 and the outer shell 1 more secure. Furthermore, this structural design improves operational safety and reduces the risk of loose parts or improper disassembly. In terms of novel technology, the linkage design of the rocker arm 3 and pressure plate 6, the adjustable fixing mechanism, and the multi-functional pressure plate 6 are all technological innovations. These designs not only achieve quick and safe disassembly but also allow for adjustment of the fixing force as needed, enabling the pressure plate 6 to perform both fixing and operation functions. This electroplating tank structure significantly improves operational convenience, structural stability, safety, and adaptability. Its design concept and implementation method embody novel technical characteristics, providing new ideas for the design and manufacturing of electroplating equipment.
[0030] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a high-efficiency electroplating tank structure for a VCP electroplating equipment includes an auxiliary structure 7 comprising a liquid guide pipe 71, a liquid delivery chamber plate 72, a liquid distribution plate 73, and a return pipe 74. The liquid guide pipe 71 is inserted into the lower end of the outer shell 1 of the tank body. The liquid delivery chamber plate 72 is located at the top of the liquid guide pipe 71. The liquid distribution plate 73 is located at the top of the liquid distribution plate 73. A return pipe 74 is located on the outer side of the liquid distribution plate 73. A water guide port is provided on the surface of the liquid distribution plate 73.
[0031] The remaining components, including the liquid guide tube 71 and the infusion chamber plate 72, serve to guide the cleaning fluid or water into the distribution plate 73. The distribution plate 73 has multiple water spray ports on its surface, and multiple return pipes 74 are connected to the water spray ports on the surface of the distribution plate 73. This allows the return pipes 74 to gradually discharge the cleaning fluid or water from top to bottom within the gap between the outer shell 1 and the inner tank 5. In this way, both the inside of the outer shell 1 and the outside of the inner tank 5 will be cleaned. The designer can arrange the outlets of the return pipes 74 from short to long to ensure that the cleaning fluid and water are discharged more evenly by the return pipes 74.
[0032] This has resulted in the following effects and novel technologies:
[0033] The high-efficiency electroplating tank structure and its auxiliary structure 7 of the VCP electroplating equipment significantly improve cleaning efficiency. Cleaning solution or water is introduced into the distributor plate 73 via the liquid guide pipe 71 and the liquid delivery chamber plate 72, and then sprayed out from multiple water spray ports on the distributor plate 73, efficiently cleaning the inside of the outer shell 1 and the outside of the inner tank 5. Simultaneously, multiple return pipes 74 are connected to the water spray ports of the distributor plate 73, ensuring that the cleaning solution is discharged step-by-step from top to bottom, achieving uniform cleaning. This design is easy to maintain; by adjusting the length of the outlet of the return pipe 74, a more uniform liquid distribution is achieved, optimizing the cleaning process. The cleaning effect is improved, and the overall cleaning is also enhanced. The gap between the outer shell 1 and the inner tank 5 can also be effectively cleaned. In terms of novel technology, the design of the water spray port of the distributor plate 73 is an innovative way of distributing cleaning fluid. The step-by-step export system is a novel liquid management technology. The design of the adjustable return pipe 74 improves the flexibility and adaptability of the equipment. This auxiliary structure 7 design has a significant effect on improving cleaning efficiency, uniformity and comprehensiveness, and reflects the novel technical features of the water spray port design of the distributor plate 73, the step-by-step export system and the adjustable return pipe 74 design.
[0034] Working Principle: When using the high-efficiency electroplating tank structure of this VCP electroplating equipment, first, place the inner tank 5 inside the outer tank 1. The ribbed plate 2 at the top of the inner tank 5 is close to the top of the outer tank 1. At this time, the user places the combination structure of the pressure plate 6 and the lifting clamp 3 between the top of the outer tank 1 and the ribbed plate 2. Then, insert the rod 4 in the order of the holes opened at the top of the ribbed plate 2, the pressure plate 6, and the outer tank 1. At this time, the outer tank 1 and the inner tank 5 are assembled. When it is necessary to clean the outer tank 1 or the inner tank 5, the user presses down on the pressure plate 6. The pressure plate 6 drives the lifting clamp 3 to move upward. The top protruding structure pushes the bottom end of the deflector plate 2. At this time, the deflector plate 2 drives the insertion rod 4 to gradually detach from the outer shell 1 of the tank. The deflector plate 2 drives the inner tank 5 to separate from the outer shell 1 of the tank. If the inner tank 5 does not need to be cleaned, the user introduces water or cleaning solution into the infusion chamber plate 72 through the liquid guide pipe 71. The infusion chamber plate 72 introduces the water or cleaning solution into the distribution plate 73. The distribution plate 73 introduces the water or cleaning solution into the return pipe 74 in batches. The return pipe 74 discharges the water or cleaning solution from the gap between the outer shell 1 of the tank and the inner tank 5. This is the working principle of the high-efficiency electroplating tank structure of the VCP electroplating equipment.
