Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an electropolishing fixture for stainless steel parts with a pictographic cathode, which is suitable for electropolishing parts that require high brightness in their internal cavities, and belongs to the field of surface treatment technology in machining. Background Technology

[0002] A certain type of part is a cylindrical cast steel shell made of ZG09Cr16Ni4Nb. The existing process involves electrolytic polishing. During the initial casting and heat treatment, a very dense oxide scale forms on the material surface. Especially during assembly, the bottom and inner walls of the part's cavity must be bright. Using existing tooling for electrolytic polishing results in approximately 40% of the parts being reworked due to the difficulty in polishing the oxide scale, severely impacting the part's quality, first-pass yield, and production efficiency. Therefore, this invention proposes an electrolytic polishing fixture for stainless steel parts with a pictographic cathode. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that the high proportion of rework products during the electropolishing of stainless steel parts using existing fixtures seriously affects the quality of the parts, the first-pass yield, and production efficiency. Therefore, this invention proposes an electropolishing fixture for stainless steel parts with a pictographic cathode.

[0004] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution.

[0005] This utility model proposes an electrolytic polishing fixture for stainless steel parts with a figurative cathode, comprising: a main rod, a handle, a hook, a figurative cathode, a cathode titanium sheet, a part retaining wire, an anode titanium sheet, and acid and alkali resistant PP plastic screws;

[0006] The main rods consist of four rods: two cathode rods and two anode rods. Two cathode rods are welded together, and then two anode rods are welded together, ensuring a distance of approximately 1 cm between the two rods. These serve as the cathode rod assembly and the anode rod assembly, respectively. A handle is welded to the top of the cathode rod assembly, and a hook is welded to the top of the anode rod assembly. Acid- and alkali-resistant PP plastic screws are used to pass through the 1 cm gap between the rods, along with nuts and washers, to connect and secure the cathode rod assembly and the anode rod assembly together, ensuring proper alignment between the cathode and anode rods. Inter-insulation; First, weld the figurative cathodes to both ends of the cathode titanium sheet, then weld them equidistantly to the cathode main rod assembly. Then, bend the two ends of the cathode titanium sheet with the figurative cathodes welded to it 90° towards the anode main rod assembly. Weld the component clamping wires to the anode titanium sheet in a 1-on-2 configuration. Weld the anode titanium sheet with the component clamping wires equidistantly to the anode main rod assembly, ensuring that each group of figurative cathodes is basically centered on the three component clamping wires. Connect one end of the wire to the conductive clamp, and pass the other end through the handle hole and fix it thereon.

[0007] Working principle

[0008] Place the cylindrical cast steel part with the opening facing inwards onto the three part clamping wires, ensuring that the shaped cathode is inside the part cavity and 5-10mm from the bottom. Hang the fixture with all parts in place on the anode rod of the stainless steel electrolytic polishing tank, and clamp the conductive clamp onto the cathode rod. Adjust the current to the process range value to start production.

[0009] Beneficial effects

[0010] The electrolytic polishing fixture proposed in this invention has a simple structure and is highly targeted, which greatly improves the quality of the inner wall of cavity parts and increases production efficiency. The fixture can be used for a long time without replacement and has significant practical value. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The main rod 1 has four rods: two cathode rods and two anode rods. Two cathode rods are welded together, and then two anode rods are welded together, ensuring a distance of approximately 1 cm between the two rods. These serve as the cathode rod group and the anode rod group, respectively. The handle 2 is welded to the top of the cathode rod group, and the hook 3 is welded to the top of the anode rod group. Acid and alkali resistant PP plastic screws 8 are used to pass through the 1 cm gap between the rods, along with nuts and washers, to connect and fix the cathode rod group and the anode rod group together, ensuring insulation between them. First, the shaped cathode 4... Weld the cathode titanium sheet 5 to both ends respectively, and then weld it to the cathode main rod group at equal intervals. Then bend the cathode titanium sheet 5 with the shaped cathode 4 at both ends towards the anode main rod group by 90° so that the shaped cathode 4 coincides with the anode main rod group. Weld the component clamping wire 6 to the anode titanium sheet 7 in the manner of 1 wire on top and 2 wires on the bottom. Weld the anode titanium sheet 7 with the component clamping wire 6 at equal intervals to the anode main rod group to ensure that each group of shaped cathodes 4 is basically in the center of the 3 component clamping wires 6. Connect one end of the wire to the conductive clamp, and pass the other end out of the handle 2 hole and fix it thereto.

[0022] Working principle

[0023] Place the cylindrical cast steel part with the opening facing inwards onto the three part clamping wires 6, ensuring that the shaped cathode is inside the part cavity and 5-10mm from the bottom. Hang the fixture with all parts in place on the anode rod of the stainless steel electrolytic polishing tank, and clamp the conductive clamp onto the cathode rod.
