Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroplating equipment technology, and specifically to an electroplating conductive disk. Background Technology

[0002] During electroplating, the plating metal or other insoluble material serves as the anode, and the workpiece to be plated serves as the cathode. The cations of the plating metal are reduced on the surface of the workpiece to form a plating layer, which can improve wear resistance, conductivity, reflectivity, corrosion resistance (such as copper sulfate), and enhance aesthetics.

[0003] In electroplating, the plating rack acts as a bridge between the workpiece and the power source. Its conductivity directly determines whether the current can be evenly distributed to each workpiece. Poor conductivity can lead to uneven current distribution, causing some parts of the workpiece to not receive enough current, thus affecting the thickness and quality of the plating layer in those areas.

[0004] Most conductive pads currently available are metal pads with holes stamped on them for hanging workpieces. The spacing between the hanging points on these conductive pads is fixed and the structure is simple, so they can only hang workpieces of a specific size, which is not very practical. Moreover, after electroplating, it is necessary to use a brush to clean the surface of the conductive pad, which is a cumbersome, time-consuming and labor-intensive process. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an electroplated conductive disk to solve the above-mentioned problems, as detailed below.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] This utility model provides an electroplating conductive disk, including an annular disk. Several movable grooves are evenly distributed radially on the annular disk. A rotating block is rotatably connected to each movable groove. Conductive hanging rings are fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating block. A limiting structure for fixing the rotating block is provided on the upper side of each movable groove. A portal frame is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the annular disk. A horizontal plate is rotatably connected to the middle of the bottom surface of the portal frame. A C-shaped brush plate that is adapted to contact the inner conductive hanging ring is fixedly connected to the end of the horizontal plate.

[0008] Preferably, a connecting shaft is fixedly connected to the middle of the movable groove, and the middle of the rotating block is sleeved on the outside of the connecting shaft through an opening. The size of the rotating block is adapted to the size of the movable groove and is fitted with a clearance between them.

[0009] Preferably, the limiting structure includes a pin sleeve fixedly connected to the upper surface of the annular disk, a U-shaped pin being inserted laterally into the pin sleeve, and a fixing sleeve that is inserted into the U-shaped pin being fixedly connected to the upper surface of the annular disk, with the pin sleeve and the fixing sleeve located on the upper sides of the movable groove respectively.

[0010] Preferably, the middle part of the portal frame is an integrally formed insulating plate, and a motor is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the insulating plate. The output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to the end of the horizontal plate through a rotating shaft.

[0011] Preferably, the gap width of the C-shaped brush plate is adapted to the thickness of the conductive hanging ring, and a number of bristles are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the C-shaped brush plate.

[0012] Preferably, the upper surface of the portal frame is fixedly connected to the same ring on both sides by diagonal bracing rods.

[0013] Preferably, the annular disk, connecting shaft, and rotating block are all made of conductive materials.

[0014] The beneficial effects are:

[0015] The conductive hanging rings are arranged in two concentric circles. The inner ring has a smaller spacing, which can hang small workpieces, while the outer ring has a larger spacing, which can hang larger workpieces. After electroplating, the motor drives the horizontal plate and the C-shaped brush to rotate laterally. At this time, the C-shaped brush passes through several conductive hanging rings located on the inner side in sequence, brushing off the adhering substances on the surface of the conductive hanging rings. This makes it easy to hang workpieces of different sizes for electroplating. At the same time, the process of cleaning the adhering substances on the surface of the conductive hanging rings is quick and convenient, which improves practicality. Attached Figure Description

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0023] See Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides an electroplating conductive disk, including an annular disk 1. Several movable grooves 2 are evenly distributed radially on the annular disk 1. A rotating block 3 is rotatably connected to each movable groove 2. Both ends of the rotating block 3 are fixedly connected to conductive hanging rings 4. Each movable groove 2 has a limiting structure on its upper side for fixing the rotating block 3. A portal frame 5 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the annular disk 1. A horizontal plate 6 is rotatably connected to the middle of the bottom surface of the portal frame 5. An inverted brush plate 7 that is compatible with the inner conductive hanging rings 4 is fixedly connected to the end of the horizontal plate 6. Since there are two rings of conductive hanging rings 4, the inner ring of conductive hanging rings 4 has a small spacing and can hang small workpieces, while the outer ring of conductive hanging rings 4 has a large spacing and can hang larger workpieces.

[0024] Reference Figure 2 As shown, a connecting shaft 8 is fixedly connected to the middle of the movable groove 2, and the middle of the rotating block 3 is sleeved on the outside of the connecting shaft 8 through the sleeve hole 9. The size of the rotating block 3 is adapted to the size of the movable groove 2 and is fitted with a clearance, so that the rotating block 3 can rotate on the connecting shaft 8. At the same time, the current can be effectively transmitted through the connecting shaft 8 and the rotating block 3 to the conductive hanging ring 4 and act on the workpiece.

[0025] As an optional implementation, the limiting structure includes a pin sleeve 10 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the annular disk 1. A U-shaped pin 11 is inserted laterally into the pin sleeve 10. A fixed sleeve 12 that is inserted into the U-shaped pin 11 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the annular disk 1. The pin sleeve 10 and the fixed sleeve 12 are located on the upper sides of the movable groove 2, respectively. When the rotating block 3 rotates 180 degrees, the U-shaped pin 11 is inserted into the fixed sleeve 12 and the pin sleeve 10 at the same time. At this time, the U-shaped pin 11 limits the upper side of the rotating block 3 to prevent the rotating block 3 from rotating, thereby limiting and fixing the rotating block 3.

[0026] Reference Figure 3As shown, the middle part of the gantry frame 5 is an integrally formed insulating plate 13. A motor 15 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the insulating plate 13. The output shaft of the motor 15 is fixedly connected to the end of the horizontal plate 6 through the rotating shaft 16. The gap width of the C-shaped brush plate 7 is adapted to the thickness of the conductive hanging ring 4, and several bristles are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the C-shaped brush plate 7. The rotating shaft 16 and the horizontal plate 6 are driven to rotate together by the motor 15. At this time, the C-shaped brush plate 7 passes through the surface of several conductive hanging rings 4 in sequence. At the same time, the bristles clean the adhering substances on the surface of the conductive hanging rings 4, which is convenient for subsequent use. The insulating plate 13 can prevent the current during electroplating from affecting the motor 15.

[0027] Specifically, the upper surface of the gantry frame 5 is fixedly connected to the same ring 14 on both sides by diagonal bracing rods, which makes it easy to hang the conductive plate on the electroplating equipment.

[0028] Specifically, the annular disk 1, the connecting shaft 8, and the rotating block 3 are all made of conductive materials, which can improve the conductivity of the workpiece, make the current evenly distributed on the surface of the workpiece, and improve the thickness and quality of the workpiece coating.

[0029] Working principle:

[0030] When using the device, select either the inner or outer conductive hanging ring 4 depending on the size of the workpiece. After the workpiece is hung, control the device to immerse the workpiece hanging below the annular disk 1 into the electroplating bath for electroplating. After electroplating is completed, control the motor 15 to drive the horizontal plate 6 and the C-shaped brush plate 7 to rotate horizontally together. At this time, the C-shaped brush plate 7 passes through several conductive hanging rings 4 located on the inner side in sequence, brushing off the adhering substances on the surface of the conductive hanging rings 4. After the inner conductive hanging rings 4 are cleaned, rotate the rotating block 3 180 degrees to turn the outer conductive hanging rings 4 to the inner side and fix their position through the limiting structure for cleaning again, which is convenient for subsequent use.

[0031] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
