Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrophoresis lifting equipment technology, specifically an electrophoresis lifting equipment for automotive castings. Background Technology

[0002] Electrophoretic coating hangers are specialized lifting equipment used in electrophoretic coating production lines. They are mainly used to lift and suspend workpieces, enabling them to enter the electrophoretic tank smoothly and accurately for electrophoretic coating treatment. Electrophoretic coating is a coating method that utilizes the principle of electrophoresis to cause charged paint particles to move directionally under the action of an electric field and deposit on the surface of the workpiece, forming a uniform coating. Electrophoretic hangers play a crucial role in the electrophoretic coating process, ensuring that the workpiece can be stably and reliably suspended in the electrophoretic tank, guaranteeing coating quality and production efficiency.

[0003] An existing patent (publication number: CN219385365U) discloses a movable electrophoresis lifting device, relating to the field of electrophoresis lifting device technology. It includes a mounting frame with a U-shaped guide rail fixedly connected to its bottom. The U-shaped guide rail has guide grooves on its sides, and several lifting device assemblies are mounted on its surface. Each lifting device assembly includes a movable plate with several guide wheels rotatably connected to its top. The guide wheels are engaged within the guide grooves. Support plates are fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the movable plate. Load-bearing wheels are rotatably connected to the inner top of each support plate, and these wheels are installed within the guide grooves. A brake wheel is fixedly connected to the end of the front load-bearing wheel. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the upper left side of the front support plate, and a left brake block is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the front support plate, and a right brake block is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft. This invention, through the design of the lifting device assemblies and the U-shaped guide rail, and with appropriate adjustments, ensures that the distance between the two lifting device assemblies is suitable for fixing the workpiece.

[0004] When the above-mentioned electrophoresis lifting device is used, the lifting device components and U-shaped guide rails are set up and properly adjusted so that the distance between the two lifting device components is suitable for fixing the workpiece. However, due to the fixing of the lifting rod, the whole device needs to be replaced if it is damaged, which is extremely wasteful and has high maintenance costs. At the same time, due to the design of the lifting rod, the parts located on the lifting rod will swing, and there is a risk that the parts will fall off. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an electrophoresis lifting fixture for automotive castings, which has advantages such as easy hook replacement, prevention of workpiece swaying, and easy position adjustment, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an electrophoresis lifting fixture for automotive castings, comprising a base body, wherein a connecting component is provided below the base body;

[0007] The connecting assembly includes multiple fixed frames, each fixed frame having a support member inserted inside, each support member having a hook fixedly connected to its bottom end, each support member having two slots on its outer surface, each fixed frame having two sliding grooves on its inner wall, each sliding groove having a limiting member slidably connected inside, each limiting member having an insertion into its adjacent slot, each fixed frame having a cavity inside, each cavity having a rotating rod rotatably connected to its inner wall, each limiting member having a rope fixedly connected to its outer surface, and each rope having its other end fixedly connected to its adjacent rotating rod.

[0008] An anti-sway assembly is provided below the base. The anti-sway assembly includes multiple sliding positioning parts. Each sliding positioning part is slidably connected to a hook adjacent to it. The outer surface of each sliding positioning part is connected to a swinging part by a torsion spring. Each swinging part is hinged to a sliding positioning part adjacent to it. A rubber baffle is fixedly connected to the upper end of each swinging part. Each rubber baffle is in contact with a hook adjacent to it.

[0009] With the above solution, the installation process is extremely simple and quick by setting up connecting components. Users only need to insert the support into the fixed frame, without complicated operations or additional tools, to quickly complete the installation of the hook, saving time and effort.

[0010] Furthermore, a spring is fixedly connected to the outer surface of each of the limiting clips, and the other end of each spring is fixedly connected to a sliding groove adjacent to it.

[0011] By using the above solution, a spring is installed, which can push the limiting clip to limit the support component through the deformation force of the spring, so that the support component can be stably fixed in the fixed frame.

[0012] Furthermore, two slide rails are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the base, and a sliding component is fixedly connected to the upper surface of each fixed frame.

[0013] By using the above solution, the cooperation between the sliding component and the slide rail can be configured to adjust the position of multiple hooks, thereby improving the convenience of use for users.

[0014] Furthermore, a limiting groove is provided at the bottom end of both slide rails, an electric push rod is installed on the inner wall of each sliding component, a limiting block is fixedly connected to the output end of each electric push rod, and each limiting block is slidably inserted into the limiting groove adjacent to it.

[0015] By using the above scheme, the cooperation between the limiting block and the limiting groove can limit the sliding part, so that the sliding part can be stably limited to the slide rail, thereby preventing the whole from swinging.

[0016] Furthermore, two mounting components are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the substrate.

[0017] The above scheme, by setting up the mounting components, makes it easy to install the base onto an external traction device, which then moves the base to facilitate the transport of the workpiece.

[0018] Furthermore, the bottom end of each of the aforementioned limiting clips is beveled.

[0019] The above solution involves beveling the bottom of the limiting clip, which facilitates the insertion of the support into the fixed frame, thereby enabling rapid installation and improving the efficiency of hook installation.

[0020] Furthermore, a sealing ring is installed at the bottom of each of the fixed frames, and each of the support members is in contact with its adjacent sealing ring.

[0021] The above solution allows for the sealing of the connection between the fixed frame and the support, preventing the electrophoresis tank liquid from entering the fixed frame.

[0022] Furthermore, each of the hooks is made of a non-metallic material.

[0023] By using the above method, the hooks can be made of non-metallic material, thus avoiding metal contamination of the electrophoresis tank solution.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] This type of automotive casting electrophoresis lifting device features a connecting component that makes installation extremely simple and quick. Users can easily install the hook by simply inserting the support into the fixed frame, saving time and effort. Disassembly is equally efficient and convenient. By rotating the rotating rod, users can easily disassemble the hook without complicated steps or professional skills. The connecting component not only simplifies the installation and disassembly process of the hook but also greatly improves the ease of operation, allowing users to easily and quickly replace the hook.

[0026] By incorporating an anti-sway component, which directly contacts and limits the workpiece through a sliding positioning element, the anti-sway component effectively fixes the workpiece at the bottom of the hook, preventing swaying caused by external forces during the conveying or immersion of the electrophoresis tank solution. This ensures the stability of the workpiece throughout the entire processing, not only improving the processing efficiency of the workpiece but also reducing potential workpiece damage or operational errors caused by swaying, further enhancing the overall production quality and safety.

[0038] The technical solutions of 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. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0039] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, an electrophoresis hanger for automotive castings includes a base 1, and a connecting component 2 is disposed below the base 1.

[0040] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The connecting component 2 includes multiple fixed frames 201. Each fixed frame 201 has a support member 202 inserted inside. Each support member 202 has a hook 203 fixedly connected to its bottom end. Each support member 202 has two slots 204 on its outer surface. Each fixed frame 201 has two sliding grooves 205 on its inner wall. Each sliding groove 205 has a limiting member 206 slidably connected inside. Each limiting member 206 is inserted into its adjacent slot 204. Each fixed frame 201 has a cavity 207 inside. Each cavity 207 has a rotating rod 208 rotatably connected to its inner wall. Each limiting member 206 has a rope 209 fixedly connected to its outer surface. Each rope 209... The other end of 9 is fixedly connected to the adjacent rotating rod 208. By setting the connecting component 2, the installation process is extremely simple and quick. Users only need to insert the support 202 into the fixed frame 201. Without complicated operations or additional tools, the installation of hook 203 can be completed quickly, saving time and effort. The disassembly process is equally efficient and convenient. By rotating the rotating rod 208, users can easily disassemble the hook. This design makes the replacement of hook 203 extremely simple, without tedious steps or professional skills. The connecting component 2 not only simplifies the installation and disassembly process of hook 203, but also greatly improves the convenience of operation, enabling users to easily and quickly replace hook 203.

[0041] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 An anti-sway assembly 3 is provided below the base 1. The anti-sway assembly 3 includes multiple sliding positioning parts 301. Each sliding positioning part 301 is slidably connected to a hook 203 adjacent to it. The outer surface of each sliding positioning part 301 is connected to a swinging part 302 by a torsion spring. Each swinging part 302 is hinged to the sliding positioning part 301 adjacent to it. A rubber baffle 303 is fixedly connected to the upper end of each swinging part 302. Each rubber baffle 303 contacts the hook 203 adjacent to it. By setting up the anti-sway assembly 3, through the direct contact and limiting of the sliding positioning parts 301 with the workpiece, the anti-sway assembly 3 can effectively fix the workpiece at the bottom of the hook, avoiding the swaying caused by external forces during the conveying or immersion of the electrophoresis tank liquid. This ensures the stability of the workpiece throughout the entire processing process, which not only improves the processing efficiency of the workpiece, but also reduces the workpiece damage or operational errors that may be caused by swaying, further improving the overall production quality and safety.

[0042] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4Each limiting clip 206 has a spring 4 fixedly connected to its outer surface. The other end of each spring 4 is fixedly connected to a sliding groove 205 adjacent to it. The spring 4 is designed so that the limiting clip 206 can be pushed by the deformation force of the spring 4 to limit the support 202, so that the support 202 can be stably fixed in the fixing frame 201. Two slide rails 5 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the base 1. Each fixing frame 201 has a sliding member 6 fixedly connected to its upper surface. The sliding member 6 is designed to cooperate with the slide rail 5. The position of multiple hooks 203 can be adjusted to improve the convenience of user operation.

The output end of each electric push rod 8 is fixedly connected to a limit block 9. Each limit block 9 is slidably inserted into the limit groove 7 that is close to it. The cooperation between the limit block 9 and the limit groove 7 can limit the sliding part 6, so that the sliding part 6 can be stably limited to the slide rail 5, thereby preventing the whole from swinging.

[0043] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 Two mounting pieces 10 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base 1. The mounting pieces 10 facilitate the installation of the base 1 onto an external traction device, which then moves the base 1 to transport the workpiece. The bottom of each limiting piece 206 is beveled to facilitate the insertion of the support piece 202 into the fixed frame 201, thereby enabling rapid installation and improving the installation efficiency of the hook 203.

[0044] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 Each fixed frame 201 has a sealing ring 11 installed at its bottom end, and each support 202 is in contact with its adjacent sealing ring 11. The sealing ring 11 can seal the connection between the fixed frame 201 and the support 202, preventing the electrophoresis tank liquid from entering the fixed frame 201. Each hook 203 is made of non-metallic material, which can prevent metal contamination of the electrophoresis tank liquid.

[0045] In this embodiment, an electrophoresis lifting device for automotive castings is provided. By setting the connecting component 2, the installation process is extremely simple and quick. Users only need to insert the support 202 into the fixing frame 201. Without complicated operations or additional tools, the hook 203 can be installed quickly, saving time and effort. The disassembly process is equally efficient and convenient. By rotating the rotating rod 208, users can easily disassemble the hook. This design makes the replacement of the hook 203 extremely simple, without tedious steps or professional skills. The connecting component 2 not only simplifies the installation and disassembly process of the hook 203, but also greatly improves the convenience of operation, enabling users to easily and quickly replace the hook 203.

[0046] The anti-sway component 3 is installed. Through the direct contact and limiting of the sliding positioning component 301 with the workpiece, the anti-sway component 3 can effectively fix the workpiece at the bottom of the hook, avoiding the swaying caused by external forces during the conveying or immersion of the electrophoresis tank liquid. This ensures the stability of the workpiece throughout the entire processing process, which not only improves the processing efficiency of the workpiece, but also reduces the workpiece damage or operational errors that may be caused by swaying, further improving the overall production quality and safety.

[0047] The working principle of the above embodiment is as follows: First, when the workpiece is suspended by the hook 203 for immersion in the electrophoresis tank solution, the workpiece is placed on the hook 203. Then, the two swinging members 302 are swung, and the sliding positioning member 301 slides along the hook 203, so that the sliding positioning member 301 contacts the workpiece. After the workpiece is positioned, the swinging members 302, driven by the return force of the torsion spring, cause the rubber baffle 303 to contact the hook 203, thereby increasing the resistance of the sliding positioning member 301. This allows the sliding positioning member 301 to stably limit the workpiece, preventing swaying during the immersion of the workpiece in the electrophoresis tank solution, thus ensuring the stability of the workpiece throughout the entire processing. This not only improves the processing efficiency of the workpiece but also reduces the workpiece damage or operational errors that may be caused by swaying. When the hook 203 needs to be replaced, it only needs to be rotated. The lever 208 causes the rotating lever 208 to wind up the rope 209. After the rope 209 is wound up, the limiting clip 206 will separate from the support member 202 under the traction of the rope 209, thereby enabling the quick removal of the support member 202 and facilitating the replacement of the hook 203. Subsequently, the new support member 202 is inserted into the fixed frame 201, and the limiting clip 206 will enter the slot 204 under the push of the spring 4, realizing the quick positioning of the support member 202, thereby improving the replacement speed of the support member 202. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the fixed frame 201, the sliding member 6 slides along the slide rail 5 to adjust the position of the hook 203. After the position adjustment is completed, the electric push rod 8 can push the limiting block 9 into the limiting groove 7 to realize the positioning of the sliding member 6, so that the hook 203 can maintain a stable state.
