Simultaneously, an air pump is activated, drawing in external air and injecting it into the bottom pipe, from which it is sprayed out. This not only allows the electrophoretic liquid to flow faster and is thoroughly agitated at the bottom, but also generates bubbles that accelerate electroplating and improve efficiency. Furthermore, when cleaning the inside of the electrophoresis tank is required after electrophoresis, a water pump can be activated to directly inject water from the external water supply system into the bottom pipe for cleaning, making cleaning the electrophoresis tank more convenient.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a user-friendly electrophoresis tank for automotive parts is provided, comprising: an electrophoresis tank body, a top plate on the top of the electrophoresis tank body, two electric rods fixedly connected to the rear inner wall of the electrophoresis tank body, symmetrically distributed inside the electrophoresis tank body, a moving assembly inside the electrophoresis tank body, the moving assembly including a crossbeam, sliders, bottom rods, bottom tubes, and nozzles, two sliders fixedly connected to the left and right side walls of the crossbeam, and two bottom rods fixedly connected to the bottom of the crossbeam, symmetrically distributed, a bottom tube fixedly connected to the bottom of the two bottom rods, and multiple nozzles fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the bottom tube, evenly distributed on the bottom tube.

[0006] According to the aforementioned convenient electrophoresis tank for automotive parts, a water pump is fixedly connected to the right side wall of the electrophoresis tank, and a connecting water pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the water pump. An air pump is fixedly connected to the left side wall of the electrophoresis tank, and a connecting air pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the air pump.

Both the connecting water pipe and the connecting air pipe are folded flexible hoses and pass through the crossbeams vertically. Valves are provided on both the connecting water pipe and the connecting air pipe.

[0007] According to the aforementioned easy-to-use electrophoresis tank for automotive parts, the slider is located inside the trough, and the end of the electric rod away from the electrophoresis tank body is fixedly connected to the crossbeam.

[0008] According to the aforementioned easy-to-use electrophoresis tank for automotive parts, the nozzle is a dual-fluid nozzle, and the nozzle is inclined.

[0009] According to the aforementioned easy-to-use electrophoresis tank for automotive parts, a placement frame is fixedly connected inside the electrophoresis tank body, and a plurality of small through holes are evenly arranged on the placement frame, which is located inside two bottom rods.

[0010] According to the aforementioned easy-to-use electrophoresis tank for automotive parts, an inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the front side wall of the electrophoresis tank, and an outlet pipe is fixedly connected to the rear side wall of the electrophoresis tank.

[0011] According to the aforementioned easy-to-use electrophoresis tank for automotive parts, there are two top plates, which are symmetrically distributed on the electrophoresis tank body. The top plates are rotatably connected to the electrophoresis tank body via 180-degree hinges.

[0012] The above solution has the following advantages: By setting up an electrophoresis tank, top plate, electric rod, moving components, water pump, connecting water pipe, air pump, connecting air pipe, chute, and placement frame, the parts are placed in the placement frame. After starting the electrophoresis tank, the electrophoretic liquid inside the tank begins to flow. At the same time, the air pump is started, drawing in external air and injecting it into the bottom pipe, which is then sprayed out from the nozzle. This not only allows the electrophoretic liquid to flow faster and the electrophoretic liquid at the bottom to be fully blown up, but also generates bubbles that can accelerate electroplating and improve electroplating efficiency. Furthermore, when cleaning the inside of the electrophoresis tank is required after electrophoresis, the water pump can be started to inject water from the external water supply system directly into the bottom pipe to clean the inside of the electrophoresis tank, making cleaning the electrophoresis tank more convenient.

[0022] Reference Figure 1-4This utility model discloses a convenient electrophoresis tank for automotive parts, comprising: an electrophoresis tank body 1, with a top plate 2 on the top of the electrophoresis tank body 1. Two top plates 2 are symmetrically distributed front-to-back on the electrophoresis tank body 1. The top plates 2 are rotatably connected to the electrophoresis tank body 1 via a 180-degree hinge. Two electric rods 3 are fixedly connected to the rear inner wall of the electrophoresis tank body 1, symmetrically distributed left-to-right inside the electrophoresis tank body 1. A moving assembly 4 is provided inside the electrophoresis tank body 1. The moving assembly 4 includes a crossbeam 401, a slider 402, a bottom rod 403, a bottom tube 404, and a nozzle 405. The end of the electric rod 3 away from the electrophoresis tank body 1 is connected to the crossbeam 401. 01 Fixed connection: Slider 402 is fixedly connected to the left and right side walls of the crossbeam 401. There are two sliders 402, which are symmetrically arranged on the left and right. Bottom rod 403 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the crossbeam 401. There are two bottom rods 403, which are symmetrically distributed on the left and right. Bottom tube 404 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the two bottom rods 403. Nozzle 405 is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the bottom tube 404. There are multiple nozzles 405, which are evenly distributed on the bottom tube 404. The nozzles 405 are dual-fluid nozzles and are inclined. When the electric rod 3 is activated, it can push the crossbeam 401 to move inside the electrophoresis tank 1, thereby causing the bottom tube 404 to move at the bottom.

[0023] A water pump 5 is fixedly connected to the right side wall of the electrophoresis tank 1. A connecting water pipe 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the water pump 5. The water inlet of the water pump 5 is connected to an external water supply system. When the water pump 5 is started, clean water from the external water supply system can be injected into the bottom pipe 404 and sprayed out from the nozzle 405 to clean the inside of the electrophoresis tank 1. An air pump 7 is fixedly connected to the left side wall of the electrophoresis tank 1. An air connecting pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the air pump 7. When the air pump 7 is started, external air can be injected into the bottom pipe 404 and sprayed out from the nozzle 405, thereby cleaning the bottom of the electrophoresis tank 1. The electrophoresis solution flows freely to prevent sedimentation at the bottom. Meanwhile, the airflow generates bubbles that accelerate electroplating and improve electroplating efficiency. The electrophoresis tank 1 has two sliding grooves 9 on its left and right side walls. The slider 402 is located inside the sliding groove 9. The sliding groove 9 is symmetrically distributed on the inner wall of the electrophoresis tank 1. The water pipe 6 and the air pipe 8 are both folded flexible hoses that run vertically through the crossbeam 401. Both the water pipe 6 and the air pipe 8 are equipped with valves.

[0024] An internal placement frame 12 is fixedly connected to the electrophoresis tank 1. Multiple small through holes are evenly arranged on the placement frame 12. The placement frame 12 is used to place parts. The small through holes on the placement frame 12 facilitate the passage of electrophoretic liquid and electroplating of parts. The placement frame 12 is located inside the two bottom rods 403. An inlet pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the front side wall of the electrophoresis tank 1, and an outlet pipe 10 is fixedly connected to the rear side wall of the electrophoresis tank 1 for discharging wastewater after cleaning.

[0025] Working principle: Place the parts in the placement frame 12, then start the electrophoresis tank 1 to make the electrophoretic liquid inside flow. At the same time, start the air pump 7 and the electric rod 3. The electric rod 3 pushes the crossbeam 401 to move along the slide 9 inside the electrophoresis tank 1, thereby moving the bottom pipe 404 at the bottom. External air is injected into the bottom pipe 404 and sprayed out from the nozzle 405, so that the electrophoretic liquid at the bottom of the electrophoresis tank 1 flows fully and avoids sedimentation at the bottom. At the same time, the air bubbles generated by the airflow can accelerate electroplating. After electroplating is completed, start the water pump 5 and the electric rod 3 to inject clean water from the external water supply system into the bottom pipe 404 and spray it out from the nozzle 405 to clean the inside of the electrophoresis tank 1. It should be noted that the air pump 7 and the water pump 5 can only be started at a time. When one is working, the other is turned off, and the corresponding pipe is also turned off.

[0026] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
