Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroplating fixture technology, and in particular to an adjustable spot plating fixture. Background Technology

[0002] In electroplating processes, selective spot plating technology is widely used due to its high efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Traditional spot plating fixtures typically employ a fixed structure, using positioning grooves or clamping mechanisms to hold the material strip, exposing the area to be plated to the electroplating solution for localized electroplating. However, such fixtures have the following significant drawbacks:

[0003] The gap is not adjustable: The gap of the electroplating solution delivery channel in the fixed structure is fixed and cannot be adjusted according to the requirements of the electroplating process (such as coating thickness and liquid flow rate), resulting in poor coating uniformity, especially insufficient adaptability to complex shaped workpieces.

[0004] Inconvenient maintenance: The conductive parts and baffles of the fixture are mostly integrated designs, requiring complete disassembly for replacement or cleaning, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

[0005] Therefore, in view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, it is necessary to design an adjustable spot plating fixture to solve the above problems.

[0006] It should be noted that the above introduction to the technical background is only for the purpose of providing a clear and complete explanation of the technical solution of this utility model and facilitating the understanding of those skilled in the art. It should not be assumed that the above content is known to those skilled in the art simply because it has been described in the background section of this utility model. Utility Model Content

[0007] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention discloses an adjustable spot plating fixture, which achieves precise adjustment of the gap in the electroplating solution delivery channel through the coordinated design of the annular fixed part and the moving part, while optimizing conductivity and maintenance convenience, and improving coating uniformity and production efficiency.

[0008] This utility model discloses an adjustable spot plating fixture, comprising:

[0009] The ring-shaped fixture fixing part is used to fix the material strip and prevent the electroplating solution from overflowing. It has a ring-shaped material strip baffle on its outer periphery to fix the material strip and prevent the electroplating solution from overflowing; a ring-shaped conductive plate is fixedly connected to one side for close contact with the product on the material strip.

[0010] The moving part of the annular fixture is coaxially arranged with the fixed part of the annular fixture and is connected to the annular conductive plate side of the fixed part of the annular fixture by at least two adjusting bolts distributed along the circumference.

[0011] The moving part of the annular fixture has an annular groove on the side near the fixed part, forming an adjustable gap electroplating solution delivery channel between the annular groove and the annular conductive plate. By rotating the adjusting bolt, the relative position of the moving part and the fixed part can be controlled, thereby adjusting the gap size of the electroplating solution delivery channel.

[0012] The preferred technical solution is as follows: guide rods are provided between the adjusting bolts, and guide holes are provided at corresponding positions on the fixed part of the annular fixture. The guide rods and guide holes are slidably fitted together. This ensures that the moving part moves smoothly along the axial direction and avoids deviation.

[0013] The preferred technical solution is as follows: the adjusting bolts and guide rods are arranged alternately at equal intervals along the circumference of the moving part of the annular fixture. This ensures uniform distribution of the adjusting force and improves the clearance accuracy.

[0014] Preferred technical solution: The annular material belt baffle is detachably sleeved on the outer periphery of the annular fixture fixing part by means of snap-fit ​​or screw connection, which is convenient for cleaning or replacement.

[0015] Preferred technical solution: The annular conductive plate is fixed to the annular fixture fixing part by insulating screws, and its inner periphery is a sloping structure inclined towards the clamping space.

[0016] Preferred technical solution: The surface of the annular conductive plate is coated with ruthenium-iridium-titanium to improve corrosion resistance and conductivity stability.

[0017] Due to the application of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows:

[0018] Gap Adjustability: The gap of the electroplating solution channel can be continuously adjusted by adjusting the bolts to adapt to different electroplating sizes and improve the uniformity of the coating.

[0019] Good electrical conductivity stability: The resistivity of the ruthenium-iridium-titanium coated conductive plate is stable under high temperature and high humidity conditions, which extends the service life of the fixture and ensures the quality of electroplating.

[0020] Easy maintenance: Both the baffle and the conductive plate are detachable, reducing replacement time and making cleaning or replacement easier.

[0021] Good structural stability: The adjusting bolts and guide rods are arranged alternately at equal intervals to ensure that the moving part moves smoothly along the axis, avoids skewing, and improves the accuracy and reliability of gap adjustment.

[0022] High production efficiency: The ability to be quickly adjusted and maintained reduces process setup time and optimizes overall production efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0034] Example:

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model discloses an adjustable spot plating fixture, including a ring fixture fixing part 1 and a ring fixture moving part 2. The main components of the above-mentioned utility model will be described in detail below:

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an annular material strip baffle 11 is fixedly sleeved on the outer periphery of the annular fixture fixing part 1 by screws to fix the material strip 3 and prevent the electroplating solution from overflowing; an annular conductive plate 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the annular fixture fixing part 1 by insulated screws for close contact with the product on the material strip 3. The surface of the annular conductive plate 12 is provided with a ruthenium-iridium-titanium coating to enhance corrosion resistance and conductivity stability.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the moving part 2 of the annular fixture and the fixed part 1 of the annular fixture are coaxially arranged. The guide rod 23 is inserted into the guide hole of the fixed part 1 to ensure that the moving part moves smoothly along the axial direction and avoids deflection. The adjusting bolt 21 is screwed into the threaded hole on one side of the annular conductive plate 12 of the fixed part 1 of the annular fixture to adjust the gap of the electroplating solution delivery channel so that the product spot plating area 4 is completely within the gap of the electroplating solution delivery channel. The adjusting bolt 21 and the guide rod 23 are arranged alternately at equal intervals along the circumference of the moving part 2 of the annular fixture to evenly distribute the adjusting force and improve the gap accuracy.

[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the annular jig moving part 2 is provided with an annular groove 22 on the side near the annular jig fixing part 1. An adjustable gap electroplating solution conveying channel is formed between the annular groove 22 and the annular conductive plate 12. The annular groove 22 is engaged with the product bending edge 5.

[0039] The method and principle of this utility model are as follows: The material strip 3 is embedded inside the annular material strip baffle 11 to ensure that the product spot plating area 4 is aligned with the electroplating solution conveying channel; the adjusting bolt 21 is rotated to change the width of the electroplating solution conveying channel so that the electroplating solution conveying channel completely covers the product spot plating area 4, and the bent edge 5 of the product is inserted into the annular slot 22 for locking.

[0040] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the annular conductive plate 12 is fixed to the annular fixture fixing part 1 by insulating screws, and its inner periphery is a slope structure inclined towards the clamping space to ensure the stability of the electroplating solution flow.

[0041] This invention, through its innovative adjustable structure and modular design, overcomes the inherent defects of traditional spot plating fixtures, significantly improving the flexibility, stability, and production efficiency of the electroplating process. Its technical solution can be widely applied to the electroplating of precision parts in the electronics, automotive, and aerospace industries, and has broad market prospects.
