[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroplating technology, and in particular to an electroplating rack and an electroplating device. Background Technology

[0002] In the electroplating process, electroplating racks are indispensable. They connect the workpiece to be plated to the cathode, ensuring that the current can be smoothly transmitted to the workpiece, thereby forming a uniform coating on the surface of the workpiece.

[0003] In the process of realizing this utility model, the inventors of this utility model discovered that current electroplating fixtures typically include a screw connector and two clamping parts. The workpiece is placed between the two clamping parts, and then the two clamping parts are screwed together by the screw connector to fix the workpiece. Each time the workpiece is fixed and loosened, the screw connector needs to be turned, which is very troublesome. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides an electroplating fixture and an electroplating device that can easily assemble and disassemble workpieces.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides an electroplating fixture, which includes a first clamping member, a second clamping member, and an elastic member. The first clamping member is provided with a first clamping portion. The second clamping member is provided with a second clamping portion and is movably connected to the first clamping member. The elastic member is connected to the first clamping member and the second clamping member respectively. The elastic member is used to force the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion to clamp the workpiece. When the external force overcomes the action of the elastic member, the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion release the workpiece.

[0006] Optionally, the electroplating fixture also includes a sliding connector, and both the first clamp and the second clamp are connected to the sliding connector. The first clamp and the second clamp are arranged opposite to each other, wherein at least one of the first clamp and the second clamp is slidably connected to the sliding connector, and the first clamp and the second clamp can move towards or away from each other along the direction from the first clamp to the second clamp.

[0007] Optionally, the first clamping member further includes a first extension portion disposed on the first clamping portion, and the second clamping member further includes a second extension portion disposed on the second clamping portion;

[0008] A sliding connector is disposed on the first extension, and the end of the second extension away from the second clamping part is slidably connected to the sliding connector. The two ends of the elastic member are respectively disposed on the opposite side of the first extension and the second extension.

[0009] Optionally, the first clamping member further includes a first extension portion disposed on the first clamping portion, and the second clamping member further includes a second extension portion disposed on the second clamping portion;

[0010] A sliding connector is disposed on the side of the first extension facing the second extension. The sliding connector passes through the second extension, and the second extension is slidably connected to the sliding connector. The two ends of the elastic member are respectively disposed on the opposite sides of the first extension and the second extension.

[0011] Optionally, the first clamping member and the second clamping member are rotatably connected.

[0012] Optionally, there are multiple first clamping parts arranged along a first direction, and multiple second clamping parts arranged along a first direction. A first clamping part cooperates with a second clamping part to clamp the workpiece.

[0013] Optionally, both the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion extend along the second direction.

[0014] Optionally, the first clamping member is provided with a first hollow hole, through which the workpiece is exposed, and / or,

[0015] The second clamping member is provided with a second hollow hole, through which the workpiece is exposed.

[0016] Optionally, the electroplating fixture may further include a first flexible conductive strip and a second flexible conductive strip. The first flexible conductive strip is disposed on the surface of the first clamping part facing the second clamping part, and the second flexible conductive strip is disposed on the surface of the second clamping part facing the first clamping part. The first flexible conductive strip and the second flexible conductive strip are disposed opposite to each other.

[0017] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, another technical solution adopted by this utility model is to provide an electroplating device, including an electroplating rack as described in any of the above embodiments.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this utility model embodiment are as follows: Unlike existing technologies, this utility model embodiment provides an electroplating rack, which includes a first clamping member, a second clamping member, and an elastic member. The first clamping member has a first clamping portion, and the second clamping member has a second clamping portion, with the second clamping member movably connected to the first clamping member. The elastic member is connected to both the first and second clamping members. Applying external force to overcome the elasticity of the elastic member causes the first and second clamping portions to move away from each other. At this time, the workpiece can be removed or installed without tightening screws, which is very convenient. When the workpiece is placed between the first and second clamping members, removing the external force causes the first and second clamping portions to automatically move closer together until the workpiece is clamped, without manual operation. Thus, the entire process of installing and removing the workpiece is simple and convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0031] To facilitate understanding of this utility model, a more detailed description is provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that when an element is described as being "fixed to" another element, it can be directly on the other element, or one or more intermediate elements may exist between them. When an element is described as being "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element, or one or more intermediate elements may exist between them. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this specification are for illustrative purposes only.

[0032] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this specification have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The term "and / or" as used in this specification includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The electroplating fixture 100 includes a first clamping member 1, a second clamping member 2, an elastic member 3, a first flexible conductive strip 5, and a second flexible conductive strip 6. The first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member are arranged opposite to each other, with the first clamping member 1 movably positioned on the second clamping member 2, allowing the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 to clamp or release the workpiece 200. The elastic member 3 is connected to both the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2. When an external force is applied to overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 3, the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 move away from each other, allowing the workpiece 200 to be removed or placed. The process of installing or removing the workpiece 200 is simple and convenient. After the workpiece 200 is placed between the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2, the external force is removed, and under the action of the elastic member 3, the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 clamp the workpiece 200. The clamping process requires no manual operation. The first clamping member 1 has a first flexible conductive strip 5 on one side for clamping the workpiece 200, and the second clamping member 2 has a second flexible conductive strip 6 on the other side for clamping the workpiece 200. Under the action of the elastic member 3, the first flexible conductive strip 5 and the second flexible conductive strip 6 clamp the workpiece 200. In this way, damage caused by clamping the workpiece 200 with rigid materials is avoided.

[0034] It is understandable that the clamping force applied to the workpiece 200 by the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 comes from the elastic force of the elastic member 3. Given a fixed thickness of the workpiece 200, the relative positions between the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 remain unchanged, as does the elastic deformation of the elastic member 3 and the elastic force provided by the elastic member 3. Therefore, the clamping force applied to the workpiece 200 by the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 also remains unchanged. This avoids the clamping force being too small, thus preventing the workpiece 200 from falling off; it also avoids damage to the workpiece 200 caused by excessive clamping force, making it particularly suitable for easily damaged workpieces 200, such as glass workpieces 200.

[0035] For ease of understanding, the directions in this embodiment of the utility model are defined as follows: the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other. The first direction is parallel to the direction in which the workpiece 200 falls on the electroplating fixture 100, and the third direction is parallel to the thickness direction of the workpiece 200.

[0036] For the first clamping member 1 mentioned above, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first clamping member 1 includes a first clamping portion 11, a first extension portion 12, and a first connecting portion. The first extension portion 12 is disposed on the first clamping portion 11, and the first clamping portion 11 and the first extension portion 12 are integrally formed. The first clamping member 1 is provided with a first hollow hole 14 to expose the workpiece 200 to the first hollow hole 14, facilitating ion exchange of the workpiece 200 during electroplating and preventing the accumulation of electroplating solution between the first clamping member 1 and the workpiece 200. The first clamping portion 11 is disposed at the edge of the first hollow hole 14 and is disposed along a second direction. There are two first clamping portions 11, which are disposed opposite to each other along a first direction. The two first clamping portions 11 are connected by two first connecting portions, and the two first clamping portions 11 and the two first connecting portions enclose the first hollow hole 14. The first hollow hole 14 can be rectangular, but it is understood that the first hollow hole 14 can also be other shapes, which can be selected according to the shape of the workpiece 200. The arrangement of the first clamping part 11 increases the contact area between the first clamping member 1 and the workpiece 200, thereby improving the stability of the workpiece 200 when it is fastened.

[0037] For the second clamping member 2 mentioned above, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The second clamping member 2 includes a second clamping portion 21, a second extension portion 22, and a second connecting portion. The second extension portion 22 is disposed on the second clamping portion 21, and the second clamping portion 21 and the second extension portion 22 are integrally formed. The second clamping member 2 is provided with a second hollow hole 24 to expose the workpiece 200 to the second hollow hole 24, facilitating ion exchange of the workpiece 200 during electroplating and preventing the accumulation of electroplating solution between the second clamping member 2 and the workpiece 200. The second clamping portion 21 is disposed at the edge of the second hollow hole 24 and is disposed along a second direction. There are two second clamping portions 21, which are connected by two second connecting portions, and the two second clamping portions 21 and the two second connecting portions enclose the second hollow hole 24. The second hollow hole 24 can be rectangular, but it is understood that the second hollow hole 24 can also be other shapes, which can be selected according to the shape of the workpiece 200. A first clamping part 11 and a second clamping part 21 are disposed opposite to each other so that the first clamping part 11 and the second clamping part 21 cooperate to clamp the workpiece 200. The provision of the second clamping part 21 increases the contact area between the second clamping part 2 and the workpiece 200, thereby improving the stability of the workpiece 200 when it is fastened.

[0038] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The electroplating hanger 100 also includes a sliding connector 4, which is fixed to the first extension 12. Along a third direction, the end of the second extension 22 away from the second clamping part 21 is slidably connected to the sliding connector 4, so that the first clamping part 1 and the second clamping part 2 can move towards or away from each other along a third direction. Alternatively, the sliding connector 4 is fixed to the first extension 12 and passes through the second extension 22, with the sliding connector 4 arranged along a third direction, and the sliding connector 4 slidably connected to the second extension 22. This embodiment of the invention does not limit the sliding connection between the first clamping part 1 and the second clamping part 2 to the above-described connection method; it is sufficient to allow the first clamping part 11 and the second clamping part 21 to move away from or towards each other.

[0039] It is understood that the connection between the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 is not limited to a sliding connection, and the sliding connecting member 4 may not be provided. The first clamping member 1 may also be rotatably connected to the second connecting member 23. The first extension 12 and the second extension 22 are rotatably connected so that the first clamping part 11 and the second clamping part 21 can clamp or release the workpiece 200.

[0040] For the elastic element 3 mentioned above, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The elastic element 3 can be a tension spring, with both ends of the elastic element 3 located on the opposite side of the first extension 12 and the second extension 22, i.e., the first extension 12 is used to clamp the workpiece 200 on one side, and the second clamping member 2 is used to clamp the workpiece 200 on the other side. Under the tension of the elastic element 3, the first clamping member 11 and the second clamping member 21 clamp the workpiece 200; when an external force is applied to overcome the elastic force of the elastic element 3, the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 move away from each other to release the workpiece 200. Optionally, when the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 are rotatably connected, the elastic element 3 can also be a torsion spring (not shown in the figure), with the torsion spring disposed between the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2.

[0041] For the first flexible conductive strip 5 mentioned above, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first flexible conductive strip 5 is disposed on the surface of the first clamping part 11 facing the second clamping part 21. The first flexible conductive strip 5 can be a metal-based flexible conductive strip; it can also be a conductive elastomer, such as conductive rubber or conductive silicone; or it can be a conductive fabric or conductive braided tape.

[0042] For the second flexible conductive strip 6 mentioned above, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The second flexible conductive strip 6 is disposed on the surface of the second clamping part 21 facing the first clamping part 11. The second flexible conductive strip 6 can be a metal-based flexible conductive strip; it can also be a conductive elastomer, such as conductive rubber or conductive silicone; or it can be a conductive fabric or conductive braided tape.

[0043] In this embodiment of the invention, the electroplating fixture 100 includes a first clamping member 1, a second clamping member 2, and an elastic member 3. The first clamping member 1 is provided with a first clamping portion 11, and the second clamping member 2 is provided with a second clamping portion 21. The second clamping member 2 is movably connected to the first clamping member 1. The elastic member 3 is connected to both the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2. When an external force is applied to overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 3, the first clamping portion 11 and the second clamping portion 21 move away from each other. At this time, the workpiece 200 can be removed or installed without tightening screws, which is very convenient. When the workpiece 200 is placed between the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2, the external force is removed. Under the action of the elastic member 3, the first clamping portion 11 and the second clamping portion 21 automatically move closer to each other until the workpiece 200 is clamped, without manual operation. Thus, the entire process of installing and removing the workpiece 200 is simple and convenient.
