In the field of electroplating production, automatic loading and unloading technology integrates robotic arms, vision systems and intelligent control to achieve efficient and precise material transfer. The main application forms include the use of lever-type vertical lifting mechanisms to improve the utilization rate of electroplating tanks.

[0003] A search of existing Chinese patent technology reveals an "automatic electroplating device" with publication number "CN216972726U". This device uses a controller and position sensor for coordinated control. A motor drives the first screw to rotate. Furthermore, as the first screw rotates, the lifting plate moves up and down, and the clamping assembly clamps the material and extends it into the electroplating tank for electroplating. However, this device is inconvenient when loading and unloading multiple parts, which affects the efficiency of electroplating. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an electroplating device that facilitates loading and unloading of components, which is inconvenient when loading and unloading multiple parts and affects the efficiency of electroplating.

[0005] An electroplating apparatus for convenient loading and unloading is provided, comprising: an electrolytic cell with multiple support frames installed at its lower end; and a loading mechanism installed on the inner bottom wall of the electrolytic cell; wherein the loading mechanism includes a triggering component installed on the inner bottom wall of the electrolytic cell, the surface of the triggering component extending above the electrolytic cell, a removal component being provided at the upper end of the triggering component, and the lower end of the removal component extending to the inner side of the triggering component.

[0006] In one embodiment, the triggering component includes two mounting brackets fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell, and a plurality of bottom rods rotatably connected between the two mounting brackets. The ends of the bottom rods extend through to the other side of the mounting brackets, and the plurality of bottom rods are evenly distributed in a straight line along the upper end of the mounting brackets.

[0007] In one embodiment, the removal component includes a sliding bar mounted on the upper end of the actuation component. A vertical plate is fixedly connected to the side of the sliding bar near the bottom rod. A plurality of rotating sleeves are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the vertical plate, and the plurality of rotating sleeves are evenly distributed along one side of the vertical plate.

[0008] In one embodiment, a connecting rod is fixedly connected to the end of the bottom rod, and a connector is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting rod.

[0009] In one embodiment, a balance bar is rotatably connected to the surface of the connector, and a slide bar is fixedly connected to the upper end of the balance bar.

[0010] In one embodiment, a trigger frame is fixedly connected to the surface of one end of the connecting rod, and the trigger frame is located above the electrolytic cell.

[0011] In one embodiment, an upper rod is rotatably connected to the inner wall of an adjacent rotating sleeve, and two connecting seats are rotatably connected to the surface of the upper rod. A storage compartment is fixedly connected to the lower end of the connecting seats.

[0012] In one embodiment, the lower end of the slider is provided with a groove, and the top wall of the groove is slidably connected to the upper end of the actuation component. Beneficial effects

[0013] 1. The above-mentioned convenient loading and unloading electroplating device can immerse the material to be electroplated below the electrolyte surface through the touch component. Moving the touch frame drives the connecting rod to rotate, which in turn causes the balance rod and multiple connecting rods to move synchronously, driving the slide rod to move in an arc shape. When it is necessary to remove the electroplating material, the material can be separated from the electrolyte. This makes loading the material to be electroplated convenient and ensures the efficiency of electroplating processing.

[0014] 2. With the help of the set removal component, the upper rod between the two vertical plates can be driven by the connecting seat to move synchronously with the storage bin. When the storage bin is driven by the upper rod, it abuts against the trigger frame, which makes it easier to pour out the material inside the storage bin, making the unloading operation more convenient and ensuring the efficiency of electroplating.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0024] The following is combined with Figures 1-5 This invention describes an electroplating device for convenient loading and unloading of materials.

[0025] In one embodiment, an electroplating apparatus for convenient loading and unloading includes: an electrolytic cell 1, with a plurality of support frames 2 installed at the lower end of the electrolytic cell 1; and a loading mechanism 3 installed on the inner bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 1. The loading mechanism 3 includes an actuating component 31 installed on the inner bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 1, the surface of the actuating component 31 extending above the electrolytic cell 1, a removal component 32 provided at the upper end of the actuating component 31, and the lower end of the removal component 32 extending to the inner side of the actuating component 31.

[0026] It should be noted that electroplating is a process that uses electrolysis to attach a layer of metal film to the surface of metal or other material parts, thereby preventing metal oxidation and corrosion, improving wear resistance, conductivity, reflectivity, corrosion resistance, and aesthetics.

[0027] like Figures 1-4As shown, the trigger assembly 31 includes two mounting brackets 311 fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the electrolytic cell 1. A plurality of bottom rods 312 are rotatably connected between the two mounting brackets 311. The ends of the bottom rods 312 extend through to the other side of the mounting brackets 311. The plurality of bottom rods 312 are evenly distributed in a straight line along the upper end of the mounting brackets 311. A connecting rod 313 is fixedly connected to the end of the bottom rod 312. A connector 315 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting rod 313. A balance rod 314 is rotatably connected to the surface of the connector 315. A slide rod 316 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the balance rod 314. A trigger frame 317 is fixedly connected to the surface of one end of the connecting rod 313. The trigger frame 317 is located above the electrolytic cell 1.

[0028] In this embodiment, when the device is in use, the trigger frame 317 can be actuated, which drives the connecting rod 313 to rotate. This causes the balance rod 314 to work with the connecting rod 313 to drive the slide rod 316 to move in an arc shape. The trigger assembly 31 can immerse the material to be electroplated below the electrolyte surface. When the electroplated material needs to be removed, the material can be separated from the electrolyte. This makes it convenient to load the material to be electroplated.

[0029] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the removal component 32 includes a sliding bar 321 installed on the upper end of the touch component 31. A vertical bar plate 322 is fixedly connected to the side of the sliding bar 321 near the bottom rod 312. Multiple rotating sleeves 323 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the vertical bar plate 322. The multiple rotating sleeves 323 are evenly distributed in a straight line along one side of the vertical bar plate 322. An upper rod 324 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of an adjacent rotating sleeve 323. Two connecting seats 326 are rotatably connected to the surface of the upper rod 324. A storage compartment 327 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the connecting seat 326. A groove 325 is opened at the lower end of the sliding bar 321. The top wall of the groove 325 is slidably connected to the upper end of the touch component 31.

[0030] In this embodiment, the device slides on the upper end of the slide bar 316 via the sliding bar 321. The slide groove 325 guides the movement along the upper end of the slide bar 316. The upper rod 324 between the two vertical plates 322 can drive the storage bin 327 to move synchronously via the connecting seat 326. When the storage bin 327 is driven by the upper rod 324, it abuts against the trigger frame 317, which makes it easier to pour out the material inside the storage bin 327, making the unloading operation more convenient.

[0031] Working principle: The trigger frame 317 is turned to drive the connecting rod 313 to rotate. The balance rod 314, in conjunction with the connecting rod 313, drives the slide rod 316 to move in an arc. The trigger component 31 immerses the material to be electroplated below the electrolyte surface. The sliding bar 321 slides on the upper end of the slide rod 316. The groove 325 is guided to move along the upper end of the slide rod 316. The upper rod 324 between the two vertical plates 322 drives the storage chamber 327 to move synchronously through the connecting seat 326. When the storage chamber 327 is driven by the upper rod 324, it abuts against the trigger frame 317. At this time, the material inside the storage chamber 327 is easy to pour out.

[0032] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
