Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroplating equipment technology, specifically a fully automatic barrel plating line. Background Technology
[0002] Barrel plating is a type of electroplating process that involves placing a large number of small parts inside a barrel, which rotates in an electroplating solution. This allows the small parts to be electroplated while rotating, resulting in higher feed efficiency and larger batch sizes compared to rack plating. It saves labor and improves plating efficiency, and is widely used in zinc plating, nickel plating, and other similar processes.
[0003] Chinese utility model patent CN201920148146.9 discloses an electroplating production line. This line comprises separate components consisting of a plating rack and rollers, movably arranged within the electroplating tank. A bracket is mounted on top to facilitate the transfer of the plating mechanism by a gantry frame. The plating tank and rack are equipped with interlocking transmission gears for easy disassembly and assembly; the combined operation of the rollers remains unaffected. The transfer of items is automatically achieved through electrically controlled second, third, and fourth drive devices. The operation is simple and the transfer is quick and convenient. The gripping mechanism is equipped with positioning sensors to quickly locate and grip the items to be transferred, thus automating the electroplating and washing processes.
[0004] This type of electroplating production line can automate the barrel plating process for products. However, when the barrel separates from the electroplating solution, it carries out a large amount of electroplating solution. Although the holes on the surface of the barrel can allow the electroplating solution or washing solution to leak out, the discharge efficiency is low, wasting a lot of time. In addition, the grooves on the product surface and the grooves formed by the combination of multiple products will accumulate electroplating solution or washing solution, causing the concentration of the electroplating solution to change, which in turn affects the electroplating quality. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the problem that liquid residue is easily left in the drum assembly after electroplating or water washing in the existing electroplating production line, which affects the concentration of the solution in subsequent processing, this utility model provides a fully automatic drum plating line.
[0006] This utility model discloses a fully automatic barrel plating line comprising: a lifting assembly, a roller assembly, and a water filtration assembly. The lifting assembly includes a lifting drive, a lifting bracket, and a lifting guide rail. The lifting bracket is disposed at the driving end of the lifting drive and drives the lifting bracket to move up and down. The lifting guide rail is connected to the lifting bracket and guides the movement of the lifting bracket. The roller assembly is mounted on the lifting bracket, and the end of the roller assembly is provided with a driving tooth. The water filtration assembly includes a water filtration drive and a water receiving tank. The water filtration drive is connected to the lifting guide rail, and the driving end of the water filtration drive meshes with the driving tooth. The water receiving tank is connected to the lifting guide rail and receives liquid leaking from the roller assembly.
[0007] Preferably, the end of the water receiving tank is provided with a transverse moving tooth, and the water filtration assembly further includes a water receiving drive component, which is connected to the lifting guide rail, and the driving end of the water receiving drive component meshes with the transverse moving tooth.
[0008] Preferably, the water receiving tank is connected to a drain pipe, and the drain pipe discharges the liquid received by the water receiving tank.
[0009] Preferably, the water filtration assembly further includes a water receiving guide rail, which is connected to the lifting guide rail and guides the movement of the water receiving tank.
[0010] Preferably, the end of the water receiving trough is connected to a roller, and the roller is attached to the water receiving guide rail.
[0011] Preferably, the water filtration assembly further includes a water receiving transmission component, which is connected to the driving end of the water receiving drive component and engages with the transverse moving gear.
[0012] Preferably, a fully automatic barrel plating line further includes a water tank assembly, which is disposed at the end of the drive tooth away from the lifting drive component, and the water tank assembly has an electroplating tank filled with liquid.
[0013] Preferably, a fully automatic barrel plating line further includes a transverse movement component, which is connected to the lifting guide rail, and the transverse movement component drives the lifting drive component and the lifting guide rail to move.
[0014] Preferably, the number of electroplating tanks is at least two, and they are arranged along the driving direction of the transverse component.
[0015] Preferably, the water tank assembly has a drain tank that receives the liquid discharged from the drain pipe.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a fully automatic barrel plating line, which has the following advantages:
[0017] This fully automated barrel plating line incorporates a water-filtering drive mechanism on the lifting guide rail. After the lifting assembly lifts the barrel assembly that has completed one electroplating step, the drive end of the water-filtering drive mechanism engages with the drive teeth of the barrel assembly. This allows the barrel assembly to quickly discharge internal liquid as it rotates, preventing liquid residue from remaining inside the barrel assembly after electroplating or washing due to grooves on the product. This avoids situations where liquid residue can affect the concentration of subsequent treatment solutions, thus impacting production efficiency and electroplating quality.

[0027] The embodiments of this disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of this disclosure. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this disclosure from the content disclosed in this specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this disclosure, and not all of them. This disclosure can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and the details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this disclosure. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments in this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
[0029] Reference Figures 1-2 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model; Figure 2 This is another structural schematic diagram of the present invention. A fully automatic barrel plating line includes: a lifting assembly 1, a roller assembly 2, and a water filtration assembly 3. The lifting assembly 1 includes a lifting drive 11, a lifting bracket 12, and a lifting guide rail 13. The lifting bracket 12 is disposed at the driving end of the lifting drive 11, and the lifting drive 11 drives the lifting bracket 12 to move up and down. The lifting guide rail 13 is connected to the lifting bracket 12 and guides the movement of the lifting bracket 12. The roller assembly 2 is attached to the lifting bracket 12, and the end of the roller assembly 2 is provided with a driving tooth 21. The water filtration assembly 3 includes a water filtration drive 31 and a water receiving tank 32. The water filtration drive 31 is connected to the lifting guide rail 13, and the driving end of the water filtration drive 31 meshes with the driving tooth 21. The water receiving tank 32 is connected to the lifting guide rail 13 and receives liquid leaking from the roller assembly 2.
[0030] This fully automatic barrel plating line, by setting a water-filtering drive component 31 on the lifting guide rail 13, allows the drive end of the water-filtering drive component 3 to mesh with the drive teeth 21 of the barrel assembly 2 after the lifting component 1 has lifted the barrel assembly 2 after completing one electroplating step. This enables the barrel assembly 2 to quickly discharge the internal liquid under the action of rotation, avoiding the situation where liquid is easily left in the barrel assembly 2 after the electroplating production line has completed electroplating or water washing, due to the product having grooves or forming grooves, which would affect the concentration of the subsequent treatment solution and thus affect the production efficiency and electroplating quality.
[0031] Furthermore, when the water filter assembly 3 drives the roller assembly 2 to rotate and quickly discharge the liquid inside the roller assembly 2, the liquid discharged from the roller assembly 2 can be received by the water receiving tank 32, thereby avoiding splashing when the liquid falls, which could cause water to fall into the electroplating solution tank and affect the quality of the electroplating solution.
[0032] The end of the water receiving tank 32 is provided with a transverse moving tooth 321. The water filter assembly 3 also includes a water receiving drive component 33, which is connected to the lifting guide rail 13. The driving end of the water receiving drive component 33 meshes with the transverse moving tooth 321, so that the water receiving tank 32 can be driven to move by the water receiving drive component 33 cooperating with the transverse moving tooth 321. When the roller assembly 2 needs to drain liquid, the water receiving tank 32 is driven to move to the bottom of the roller assembly 2 to receive the liquid discharged from the roller assembly 2. When the roller assembly 2 needs to be lowered into the electroplating solution, the water receiving tank 32 moves to a position away from the bottom of the roller assembly 2 to avoid obstructing the lowering of the roller assembly 2.
[0033] Reference Figures 3-4 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the lifting assembly and water filtration assembly of this utility model; Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the water receiving tank structure of this utility model. The water receiving tank 32 is connected to a drain pipe 322, which connects the water-containing part of the water receiving tank 32 to the outside, so that the drain pipe 322 can discharge the liquid received by the water receiving tank 32. This ensures that the water receiving tank 32 can continuously receive liquid and can discharge the liquid in a directional manner, avoiding the situation where the received liquid overflows or is discharged randomly and causes pollution to the processing environment. It also further avoids the dilution of the electroplating solution, which would affect the electroplating quality.
[0034] The water filtration assembly 3 also includes a water receiving guide rail 34, which is connected to the lifting guide rail 13. The water receiving guide rail 34 guides the movement of the water receiving tank 32, thereby ensuring that the movement of the water receiving tank 32 is directional, reducing the force required for the water receiving drive component 33 to drive the water receiving tank 32 to move, and preventing the water receiving tank 32 from deviating from its position, which would affect the water receiving tank 32's ability to receive the liquid discharged from the roller assembly 2.
[0035] The end of the water receiving trough 32 is connected to a roller 323, and the roller 323 is attached to the water receiving guide rail 34. This reduces the friction between the water receiving trough 32 and the water receiving guide rail 34 when the water receiving trough 32 moves, thereby improving the efficiency of the water receiving drive 33 in driving the water receiving trough 32 and the service life of the water receiving drive 33.
[0036] The water filtration assembly 3 also includes a water receiving transmission component 35, which is connected to the driving end of the water receiving drive component 33 and engages with the transverse moving gear 321.
[0037] Specifically, both ends of the water receiving trough 32 are provided with transverse moving teeth 321, and the circumferential surface of the water receiving transmission component 35 is provided with gears that mesh with the transverse moving teeth 321. This allows the water receiving transmission component 35 to drive both sides of the water receiving trough 32 to move simultaneously when the water receiving drive component 33 drives the water receiving transmission component 35 to rotate, ensuring that the force on both sides is uniform and thus achieving a smooth movement effect.
[0038] A fully automatic barrel plating line also includes a water tank assembly 5, which is located at the end of the drive gear 21 away from the lifting drive component 11. The water tank assembly 5 has an electroplating tank 51 filled with liquid, so that after the lifting component 1 lowers the roller assembly 2 into the water tank assembly 5, the product in the roller assembly 2 can be electroplated by the water tank assembly 5.
[0039] Furthermore, the water tank assembly 5 is an electroplating tank, and has a drive system for driving the roller assembly 2 to rotate and suspended electroplated metal, etc.
[0040] A fully automatic barrel plating line also includes a transverse component 4, which is connected to a lifting guide rail 13. The transverse component 4 drives the lifting drive component 11 and the lifting guide rail 13 to move, so that when electroplating products, the transverse component 4 can drive the lifting drive component 11 and the lifting guide rail 13 to move laterally, so that they can move out of the range of the water tank component 5, so as to facilitate the loading and unloading of materials in the barrel component 2 and improve production efficiency.
[0041] The number of electroplating tanks 51 is at least two, and they are arranged along the driving direction of the transverse component 4. This allows multiple electroplating tanks 51 to be set up, each filled with a solution for one-step electroplating, such as water or electroplating solution. This enables the products to be washed or electroplated by means of transportation, thereby achieving the effect of automated electroplating, improving production efficiency and reducing labor costs.
[0042] The water tank assembly 5 has a drain tank 52, which receives the liquid discharged from the drain pipe 322.
