Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of metal electroplating technology, specifically, it relates to a metal parts processing device. Background Technology
[0002] Zinc plating is a metal surface treatment technology that coats the surface of metals, alloys, or other materials with a layer of zinc to achieve aesthetic and rust-proof effects. There are various methods of zinc plating.
[0003] Chinese Patent Application No. CN202323038950.7 discloses a metal parts processing device, relating to the field of metal parts electroplating technology. This invention includes an electroplating tank, a gantry frame fixedly mounted on the top surface of the tank, a lifting mechanism on the top surface of the gantry frame, a movable frame fixedly mounted on the movable part of the lifting mechanism, and the lifting mechanism for vertically lifting the movable frame. A hanging assembly for suspending and fixing the metal parts is provided on the bottom surface of the movable frame. This invention uses a controller to control a drive assembly to rotate the hanging assembly and the metal parts, ensuring full contact between the metal parts and the electrolyte. The lifting mechanism moves the movable frame, the hanging assembly, and the suspended metal parts vertically above the electrolyte. At this point, the metal parts are still inside the electroplating tank. The drive assembly rotates the hanging assembly and the metal parts, and under centrifugal force, the residual electrolyte on the surface of the metal parts is discharged and flows back into the electroplating tank for electrolyte recycling.
[0004] However, although the above-mentioned device can electroplate metal parts and discharge electrolyte to reduce electrolyte waste, the distance between each hanging component used to fix the metal parts cannot be adjusted. Therefore, when electroplating larger or wider metal parts, it is necessary to control the distance between two adjacent metal parts to prevent them from colliding with each other when the electrolyte is spun dry. In actual use, the fixed distance of the metal parts needs to be adjusted, and they need to be fixed every one or two hooks. This will reduce the number of metal parts that can be electroplated each time, affecting the electroplating efficiency of the metal parts.
[0005] In view of this, this utility model is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a metal parts processing device.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the basic concept of the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0008] A metal parts processing apparatus includes an electroplating tank, an mounting frame on the upper side of the electroplating tank, a lifting mechanism on the mounting frame, a movable frame on the lifting mechanism, and multiple fixing mechanisms inside the movable frame.
[0009] The fixing mechanism includes two interconnected moving slots and a limiting slot within the moving frame. Multiple slots are provided on one side of the inner wall of the moving slot.

[0011] Optionally, the transmission assembly includes a cavity formed within the movable frame and connected to the movable slot. Two synchronous pulleys are rotatably fitted within the cavity, and a synchronous belt is fitted onto the two synchronous pulleys. Multiple toothed plates that mesh with gears are provided on the side of the synchronous belt.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art. Of course, any product implementing the present invention does not necessarily need to achieve all of the following advantages at the same time:
[0016] By using the fixed adjustment components, the fixing of the rotating shaft can be released, facilitating the movement of the U-shaped hooks at one end of the shaft. This allows for adjustment of the spacing between the U-shaped hooks, preventing collisions when processing metal parts of different sizes due to excessive proximity. Furthermore, the processing gap between metal parts can be adjusted according to their size, increasing the number of metal parts processed at once and improving the efficiency of metal plating. The transmission assembly also drives the rotating shaft on the gears, causing the metal parts on the U-shaped hooks to rotate.

Detailed Implementation
[0027] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, this embodiment provides a metal parts processing device, including an electroplating tank 1, an mounting frame 2 is provided on the upper side of the electroplating tank 1, a lifting mechanism is provided on the mounting frame 2, a moving frame 3 is provided on the lifting mechanism, and multiple fixing mechanisms are provided inside the moving frame 3.
[0029] The fixing mechanism includes two interconnected moving grooves 4 and a limiting groove 5 within the moving frame 3. Multiple slots 6 are provided on one side of the inner wall of the moving groove 4. Multiple rotating shafts 7 are provided within the moving groove 4. Mounting discs 8 and gears 9 are respectively provided at both ends of the rotating shafts 7. A U-shaped hook 10 is provided on one side of the mounting disc 8. A transmission component that cooperates with the gears 9 is provided within the moving frame 3. A fixing adjustment component that engages with the slots 6 is provided within the moving groove 4. The fixing adjustment component cooperates with the rotating shafts 7.
[0030] One application of this embodiment is as follows: In use, firstly, the metal part to be processed is measured, and then the position of the U-shaped hook 10 on the rotating shaft 7 is adjusted by the fixing adjustment component. Then, the metal part to be processed is fixed on the U-shaped hook 10. After fixing, the lifting mechanism is started to drive the moving frame 3 to move and send the metal part into the electroplating tank 1 for electroplating. After electroplating is completed, the moving frame 3 is moved again so that the metal part hanging there is moved vertically above the electrolyte. At this time, the metal part is still inside the electroplating tank. The transmission component is started and the gear 9 is driven to rotate. The rotation of the gear 9 can drive the U-shaped hook 10 at one end of the rotating shaft 7 to rotate, thereby driving the metal part to rotate and splashing out the residual electrolyte on the metal part. Finally, the spun-dry metal part is taken out to complete the use of this device.
[0031] By setting a fixed adjustment component, the fixing of the rotating shaft 7 can be released, which facilitates the movement of the U-shaped hook 10 at one end of the rotating shaft 7. This allows for adjustment of the spacing of the U-shaped hooks 10, which helps to avoid collisions caused by excessively close proximity when processing metal parts of different sizes. It also allows for reasonable adjustment of the processing gap between metal parts according to their size, which can increase the number of metal parts processed at one time and improve the efficiency of metal electroplating. With the setting of the transmission component, the rotating shaft 7 on the gear 9 can be driven to rotate, which in turn drives the metal parts on the U-shaped hooks 10 to rotate. Under the action of centrifugal force, the residual electrolyte on the surface of the metal parts is discharged, avoiding electrolyte splashing and waste.
[0032] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the fixing and adjusting component in this embodiment includes a movable plate 11 that slides within the movable groove 4. A control handle 12 is elastically fitted on one side of the movable plate 11. Two connecting rods 13 are provided at one end of the control handle 12, and a locking plate 14 that engages with the locking groove 6 is provided at one end of each connecting rod 13. The control handle 12 includes a control rod connected to the two connecting rods 13. The control rod slides on the movable plate 11, and a spring 15 connected to the movable plate 11 is sleeved on the control rod. A connecting handle is provided at one end of each control rod. With the connecting handle, it is convenient for the operator to pull the locking plate 14 at one end of the connecting rod 13 to move, thereby releasing the fixation of the rotating shaft 7 and facilitating the adjustment of the position between adjacent U-shaped hooks 10. After adjustment, the locking plate 14 at one end of the connecting rod 13 can be re-fixed to the locking groove 6 by the elastic force of the spring 15 itself, which facilitates the operator's operation and makes it more convenient and faster.
[0033] like Figure 2 and 5 As shown, the transmission assembly in this embodiment includes a cavity formed within the movable frame 3 and connected to the movable groove 4. Two synchronous pulleys 16 are rotatably fitted within the cavity, and a synchronous belt 18 is fitted onto each of the two pulleys 16. Multiple toothed plates 17 that mesh with the gear 9 are provided on the sides of the synchronous belt 18. A motor is mounted on the upper side of the movable frame 3, and the motor's transmission passes through the cavity within the movable frame 3 and is connected to one of the synchronous pulleys 16. Driven by the motor, one of the synchronous pulleys 16 can rotate, and with the synchronous belt 18, the toothed plates 17 can move, thereby driving the gear 9 to rotate. This facilitates the rotation of the metal parts on the U-shaped hook 10, reducing electrolyte contamination on the metal parts and facilitating subsequent cleaning.
[0034] like Figure 1-3 As shown in Figure 4, a limiting ring 19 is provided on the rotating shaft 7 in this embodiment, and the limiting ring 19 slides within the limiting groove 5. With the limiting ring 19, when adjusting the distance between two adjacent U-shaped hooks 10, the limiting ring 19 on the rotating shaft 7 can slide on the limiting groove 5 within the moving frame 3, so that the U-shaped hooks 10 can be more stable when moving and adjusting.
[0035] like Figure 1-3As shown, the mounting frame 2 in this embodiment includes two support plates 20 and a horizontal plate 21. Each support plate 20 has a groove 22 on one side, and each side of the movable frame 3 has a sliding block that slides within the groove 22. The fixing mechanism includes two support plates 23 mounted on the horizontal plate 21, with a drive shaft 24 rotatably mounted on each support plate 23. Two winding wheels 25 are mounted on the drive shaft 24, and a steel cable 26 connected to the movable frame 3 is mounted on each winding wheel 25. A servo motor is mounted at one end of the drive shaft 24. Driven by the servo motor, the drive shaft 24 rotates, thereby winding or scaling the steel cable 26 on the winding wheel 25. This causes the movable frame 3 at one end of the steel cable 26 to move. During this movement, the movable block slides within the groove 22, further improving the stability of the movable frame 3 in actual use.
[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, the U-shaped hook 10 in this embodiment is U-shaped and has a threaded sleeve 27 at its end. A lead screw 28 that threads with the threaded sleeve 27 is provided on one side of the mounting plate 8. With the threaded sleeve 27, the U-shaped hook 10 can rotate, and the threaded sleeve 27 is movably connected to the U-shaped hook 10 and can mesh with the lead screw 28, thereby making the metal parts fixed on the U-shaped hook 10 more stable during processing.
