Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrophoresis tanks, specifically an electrophoresis tank for electrophoretic coating. Background Technology

[0002] In modern industrial production, electrophoretic coating technology is widely used in automobile manufacturing, machinery processing, home appliance production and other fields due to its advantages such as high efficiency, uniformity and environmental protection. As the core equipment of the electrophoretic coating process, the performance of the electrophoretic tank directly affects the quality and efficiency of electrophoretic coating. At present, traditional electrophoretic tanks have the following problems in actual use: when electrophoretically coating workpieces, the workpieces occupy a certain space in the electrophoretic tank, causing the electrophoretic liquid to overflow outside the tank. This not only wastes the electrophoretic liquid and increases production costs, but also pollutes the working environment. To address this, we have proposed an electrophoretic tank for electrophoretic coating. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an electrophoresis tank for electrophoretic coating, which solves the aforementioned problems.

[0022] An electrophoresis solution scraping component is installed inside the overflow prevention box 9 and is used to scrape the electrophoresis solution inside the overflow prevention box 9 into the electrophoresis tank 1.

[0023] The support plate 4 is provided with two sets, and the two sets of adjusting racks 5 respectively mesh with the two sides of the drive gear 3.

[0024] The two sets of adjusting racks 5 are fixed to one side of the two sets of linkage plates 6 near the bottom, with their ends facing away from each other.

[0025] An electrophoresis tank 1 has an electrophoresis liquid height reference bar 13 fixedly installed on the inner wall below the anti-overflow box 9. The electrophoresis liquid height reference bar 13 is set in an opening shape around the inner wall of the electrophoresis tank 1.

[0026] The electrophoresis solution scraping assembly includes a push plate 7, a residual liquid scraper 10, a groove 11, and a protruding plate 12. The residual liquid scrapers 10 are slidably installed in both sets of overflow prevention boxes 9. The push plate 7 is fixedly connected to the middle position of the opposite side of the two sets of residual liquid scrapers 10. The two sets of push plates 7 extend slidably out of the electrophoresis tank 1, and the ends of the two sets of push plates 7 are respectively fixedly connected to the top position of the two sets of linkage plates 6. The protruding plate 12 is fixedly provided on the inner top wall of the two sets of overflow prevention boxes 9 near the outermost position. The residual liquid scraper 10 has a groove 11 adapted to the protruding plate 12 on the side opposite to the push plate 7. The protruding plate 12 is slidably engaged in the groove 11.

[0027] The two ends of the residual liquid scraper 10 are completely attached to the two sides of the overflow box 9, and the top and bottom of the residual liquid scraper 10 are completely attached to the top inner wall and bottom inner wall of the overflow box 9, respectively.

[0028] Structural description: Push plate 7: It is fixed to one side of the residual liquid scraper 10 and extends out of the electrophoresis tank 1. It is fixed to one side of the linkage plate 6 near the top position and is used to push the residual liquid scraper 10 to slide in the anti-overflow box 9.

[0029] Opening groove 8: It is opened on both sides of the electrophoresis tank 1 to connect the electrophoresis tank 1 and the overflow prevention box 9, so that the electrophoresis liquid can flow into the overflow prevention box 9 when the liquid level rises in the electrophoresis tank 1.

[0030] Overflow box 9: Fixed in the open slot 8, used to collect the electrophoresis liquid that overflows when the workpiece is placed in the electrophoresis tank 1, and to prevent the electrophoresis liquid from leaking out of the electrophoresis tank 1 and causing waste;

[0031] Residual liquid scraper 10: It is slidably installed in the overflow box 9, with its two ends, top and bottom completely in contact with the two sides, the inner wall of the top and the inner wall of the bottom of the overflow box 9, respectively. It is used to scrape off the remaining electrophoresis liquid in the overflow box 9 and push it back into the electrophoresis tank 1.

[0032] The protruding plate 12 is fixed on the top inner wall of the overflow box 9 near the outermost position and is slidably engaged in the groove 11. It is used to prevent the residual liquid scraper 10 from sliding out of the overflow box 9, and also indicates that the residual electrophoretic liquid in the overflow box 9 has been emptied.

[0033] Electrophoresis solution height reference bar 13: It is set in the shape of an opening around the inner wall of the electrophoresis tank 1 and is used as a reference when it is level with the electrophoresis solution height in the electrophoresis tank 1, indicating the appropriate height of the electrophoresis solution.

[0034] Working principle: First, the electrophoresis solution is poured into the electrophoresis tank 1 until it is level with the reference bar 13. When electrophoresis is required on a workpiece, the workpiece is placed in the electrophoresis tank 1. The electrophoresis solution in the tank rises due to the volume of the workpiece. The rising liquid enters two sets of anti-overflow boxes 9 to prevent the electrophoresis solution from leaking out of the electrophoresis tank 1 and causing waste. After the workpiece is removed after electrophoresis, most of the electrophoresis solution in the anti-overflow box 9 flows back into the electrophoresis tank 1. Then, the drive motor 2 is started, and the drive gear 3 drives the two sets of adjusting racks through the rotation of the output shaft. 5. During operation, the two sets of gears gradually approach each other through the rotation of the drive gear 3. The two sets of adjusting racks 5 slide on the two sets of support plates 4 respectively and pull the two sets of linkage plates 6 to approach each other on the outside of the electrophoresis tank 1. The residual liquid scraper 10 in the overflow box 9 pushes the remaining electrophoresis liquid into the electrophoresis tank 1 through the push plate 7. When the groove 11 on the residual liquid scraper 10 slides onto the protrusion 12, the electrophoresis liquid in the overflow box 9 is scraped off. The drive motor 2 reverses to make the residual liquid scraper 10 return to the initial position in the overflow box 9.

[0035] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
