[0031] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-6As shown, a single-cylinder centrifugal electroplating machine chemical tank includes a tank body 1, a diversion box 2, a first inclined flow plate 3, a second inclined flow plate 4, a heating assembly 51, a cooling assembly 52, a first sensor 53, and a second sensor 54. The tank body 1 is provided with a tin chemical tank 11, a wastewater tank 12, a nickel chemical tank 13, a first drain outlet 14, a second drain outlet 15, a third drain outlet 16, a first output outlet 17, and a third output outlet 18. The diversion box 2 is installed on the tank body 1 and is provided with a tin chemical zone 21, a wastewater zone 22, and a nickel chemical zone 23. The tin chemical zone 21 is connected to one end of the tin chemical tank 11, and the first drain outlet 14 and the first output outlet 17 are respectively connected to the other end of the tin chemical tank 11. Port 17 is used to supply tin solution to the electroplating tank. The wastewater area 22 is connected to one end of the wastewater tank 12. The second drain port 16 is connected to the other end of the wastewater tank 12. The nickel solution area 23 is connected to one end of the nickel solution tank 13. The third drain port 16 and the third output port 18 are respectively connected to the nickel solution tank 13. The third output port 18 is used to supply nickel solution to the electroplating tank. The first inclined flow plate 3 is installed inside the tin solution tank 11 and is located below the tin solution area 21. The second inclined flow plate 4 is installed inside the nickel solution tank 13 and is located below the nickel solution area 23.The tin plating bath 11 is equipped with the heating assembly 51, cooling assembly 52, first sensor 53, and second sensor 54, respectively. The nickel plating bath 13 is also equipped with the heating assembly 51, first sensor 53, and second sensor 54. In this embodiment, there are two heating assemblies 51, two first sensors 53, and two second sensors 54. The heating assembly 51, cooling assembly 52, first sensor 53, and second sensor 54 are connected to the control system of the single-cylinder centrifugal electroplating machine. The heating assembly 51 is an electric heating rod assembly, which is existing technology and has an anti-dry-burning function. The two heating assemblies 51 are used to heat the tin plating bath 11 and the nickel plating bath 13, respectively. The cooling assembly 52 is a titanium pipe that can be circulated with cold water, thereby facilitating... For temperature control, the first sensor 53 is a temperature sensor, and the two first sensors 53 are used to detect the temperature of the tin solution tank 11 and the nickel solution tank 13, respectively. The second sensor 54 is a liquid level sensor, and the two second sensors 54 are used to detect the liquid levels of the tin solution tank 11 and the nickel solution tank 13, respectively. During operation, wastewater, tin solution, and nickel solution are diverted through the diversion box 2, so that wastewater enters the wastewater tank 12 through the wastewater area 22 and is discharged to the outside through the second drain outlet 15. The tin solution is diverted to the diversion box 2 and then discharged to the outside through the second drain outlet 15. The tin solution in the solution area 21 flows downwards to the first inclined flow plate 3. The first inclined flow plate 3, with its inclined surface structure, allows the tin solution to flow slowly towards the tin solution tank 11. Similarly, the nickel solution, after being diverted to the distribution box 2, flows downwards from the tin solution area 23 to the second inclined flow plate 4. The second inclined flow plate 4, with its inclined surface structure, allows the nickel solution to flow slowly towards the nickel solution tank 13. Furthermore, the two first sensors 53 respectively detect the temperature of the tin solution tank 11 and the nickel solution tank 13, and, in conjunction with the corresponding heating component 51 and cooling component 52, adjust the solution temperature. The temperature is adjusted so that the tin solution tank 11 can provide the electroplating tank with tin solution of suitable temperature through the first output port 17, and the nickel solution tank 13 can provide the electroplating tank with nickel solution of suitable temperature through the third output port 18. The two second sensors 54 respectively detect the liquid level of the tin solution tank 11 and the nickel solution tank 13 to prevent the solution from overflowing. When the tank 1 needs to be cleaned, cleaning water is introduced into the tin solution tank 11, the wastewater tank 12 and the nickel solution tank 13 respectively, and the cleaning water is discharged from the first drain port 14, the second drain port 15 and the third drain port 16 respectively.This application utilizes a housing 1, a tin solution tank 11, a wastewater tank 12, a nickel solution tank 13, a first drain outlet 14, a second drain outlet 15, a third drain outlet 16, a first output outlet 17, a third output outlet 18, a distribution box 2, a tin solution area 21, a wastewater area 22, a nickel solution area 23, a heating component 51, a cooling component 52, a first sensor 53, and a second sensor 54 to ensure the operational stability and reliability of the chemical tank in a single-cylinder centrifugal electroplating machine. Furthermore, through a first inclined flow plate 3 and a second inclined flow plate 4, tin solution can slowly flow from the tin solution area 21 of the distribution box 2 into the tin solution tank 11, and nickel solution can slowly flow from the nickel solution area 23 of the distribution box 2 into the nickel solution tank 13. The first inclined flow plate 3 and the second inclined flow plate 4 can mitigate the impact of the falling solution, prevent splashing, and reduce the noise of the backflow.
[0032] like Figure 2-4 As shown, the first inclined flow plate 3 is provided with a first drain 31 and a first groove 32. The first groove 32 is located in front of the first drain 31. The tin solution area 21 is connected to the tin solution tank 11 through the first drain 31 and the first groove 32. The second inclined flow plate 4 is provided with a second drain 41 and a second groove 42. The second groove 42 is located in front of the second drain 41. The nickel solution area 23 is connected to the nickel solution tank 13 through the second drain 41 and the second groove 42. In this embodiment, the first inclined flow plate 3 is specifically installed inside the tin flux tank 11. The left and right sides of the first inclined flow plate 3 are respectively attached to the left and right inner walls of the tin flux tank 11, and the front end of the first inclined flow plate 3 abuts against the inner wall of the tin flux tank 11. There are two first drain channels 31. The second inclined flow plate 4 is specifically installed inside the nickel flux tank 13. The left and right sides of the second inclined flow plate 4 are respectively attached to the left and right inner walls of the nickel flux tank 13, and the front end of the second inclined flow plate 4 abuts against the inner wall of the nickel flux tank 13. There are two second drain channels 41. During operation, tin flux flows from the tin flux area 2. The solution 1 falls onto one end of the first inclined plate 3 and flows along the inclined plate to the other end of the first inclined plate 3. It then falls from the two first drains 31 and the first groove 32 into the lower tin solution tank 11. Similarly, the nickel solution falls from the nickel solution area 23 into one end of the second inclined plate 4 and flows along the inclined plate to the other end of the second inclined plate 4. It then falls from the two second drains 41 and the second groove 42 into the lower nickel solution tank 13. This achieves the purpose of mitigating the impact of the solution falling back. Furthermore, the first inclined plate 3 and the second inclined plate 4 are respectively provided with two types of channels to prevent the other channels from being blocked and affecting the backflow of the solution.
[0033] like Figure 1-3As shown, one end of the inner bottom surface of the wastewater tank 12 is directly opposite the wastewater area 22, and the other end of the inner bottom surface of the wastewater tank 12 is connected to the second drain outlet 15. The inner bottom surface of the wastewater tank 12 is inclined. In this embodiment, because the wastewater tank 12 occupies a small portion of the space in the medicine tank, i.e., the volume of the wastewater tank 12 is small, to prevent wastewater from overflowing during operation, the bottom surface of the wastewater tank 12 is inclined. This helps improve the flow of wastewater, allowing the wastewater in the wastewater tank 12 to be quickly drained away from the second drain outlet 15.
[0034] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the diversion box 2 is provided with a diversion port 24, which is connected to the tin solution area 21, the wastewater area 22, and the nickel solution area 23, respectively. In this embodiment, the diversion port 24 is located on the front side of the diversion box 2. The diversion port 24 is an oblong opening. During operation, the drain pipe moves at the diversion port 24, causing the opening of the drain pipe to move to the tin solution area 21, the wastewater area 22, or the nickel solution area 23, thereby achieving the purpose of diversion and return.
[0035] like Figure 1-2 As shown, it also includes a first cover 61, a second cover 62, and a third cover 63; the top of the tin solution tank 11 is provided with a first water inlet 111, and the first cover 61 can be closed to the first water inlet 111; the top of the wastewater tank 12 is provided with a second water inlet 121, and the second cover 62 can be closed to the second water inlet 121; the top of the nickel solution tank 13 is provided with a third water inlet 131, and the third cover 63 can be closed to the third water inlet 131. In this embodiment, during operation, when the solution concentration is low and needs to be added or cleaned, the first cover 61, the second cover 62, and the third cover 63 can be removed, and solution can be added to the required volume through the first water inlet 111 and the third water inlet 113, or cleaning water can be added through the first water inlet 111, the second water inlet 112, and the third water inlet 113 for quick rinsing, which is convenient and fast. Preferably, the tank body 1 is made of transparent material, so as to facilitate observation of the addition of solution or the cleaning process.
[0036] like Figure 1-2 and Figure 5As shown, it also includes a first filter barrel 71 and a third filter barrel 73; the top of the tin solution tank 11 is provided with a first circulation port 112, one end of the first filter barrel 71 is connected to the first output port 17, and the other end of the first filter barrel 71 is connected to the first circulation port 112; the top of the nickel solution tank 13 is provided with a third circulation port 132, one end of the third filter barrel 73 is connected to the third output port 18, and the other end of the second filter barrel 72 is connected to the third circulation port 132. In this embodiment, the first filter barrel 71 and the third filter barrel 73 are respectively located above the housing 1. During electroplating, tin solution is supplied from the first output port 17 to the first filter barrel 71 through a corresponding magnetic pump. The first filter barrel 71 then supplies tin solution to the corresponding anode titanium basket. Nickel solution is supplied from the third output port 18 to the third filter barrel 73 through a corresponding magnetic pump. The third filter barrel 73 then supplies nickel solution to the corresponding anode titanium basket. In order to control the flow rate and pressure, the tin solution will flow back to the first circulation port 112 through the circulation pipe of the first filter barrel 71, and the nickel solution will flow to the third circulation port 132 through the circulation pipe of the third filter barrel 73.
[0037] like Figure 1-2 and Figure 5-6 As shown, it also includes a hot water tank 8, which has an inlet 81 and an outlet 82, and is equipped with a heating element 51, a first sensor 53, and a second sensor 54. In this embodiment, the hot water tank 8 is located above the tank body 1. During operation, pure water enters the interior of the hot water tank 8 through the inlet 81. The second sensor 54 detects the amount of water added, and stops adding water when the set capacity is reached. Then, the heating element 51 heats the pure water in the tank, and the first sensor 53 detects the water temperature. Once the set temperature is reached, heating stops, and then hot water is supplied to the electroplating tank through the outlet 82.
[0038] like Figure 5-6 As shown, the hot water tank 8 is provided with an overflow port 83 and a second circulation port 84. In this embodiment, the overflow port 83 allows excess water to be discharged outside the hot water tank 8, thus preventing the water supply from failing due to a malfunction of the inlet control valve. Furthermore, the second circulation port 84 is provided so that a branch pipe connected to the pipe supplying the electroplating tank is diverted to the second circulation port 84, thereby controlling the supply flow rate and pressure of the hot water tank 8. In standby mode, the hot water output from the outlet 82 can flow back into the water tank 8 through the second circulation port 84.
