[0002] Electroplating is a process that uses electrolysis to plate a layer of another metal or alloy onto the surface of a metal. Electroplating improves the overall wear resistance, conductivity, and corrosion resistance of metals. However, after electroplating, hardware products often have excess plating solution on their surface, requiring recycling equipment to recover this solution. Existing electroplating solution recycling equipment typically involves rinsing the metal with water to remove the plating solution. However, due to the strong adhesion of the plating solution, rinsing alone takes a long time, resulting in low recycling efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, this utility model provides an easy-to-clean electroplating solution recovery device, which solves the problem that existing electroplating solution recovery devices generally use water to rinse the metal to wash off the electroplating solution. However, due to the strong adhesion of the electroplating solution, rinsing alone takes a long time, resulting in low electroplating solution recovery efficiency.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an easy-to-clean electroplating solution recycling device, comprising a box, a support plate fixedly connected to one side of the box, a motor fixedly connected to the top of the support plate, a second connecting rod fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, a first connecting rod rotatably connected to one end of the second connecting rod via a rotating shaft, a connecting plate rotatably connected to one end of the first connecting rod, and two movable rods fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate, with a placement box fixedly connected to one end of each of the two movable rods.
[0005] The placement box has several through holes, and two sliding strips are fixedly connected to the placement box. The inside of the box has two sliding grooves corresponding to the positions of the sliding strips. The sliding strips are slidably connected inside the sliding grooves. Limiting grooves are opened on both sides of the inner wall of the box. There are two limiting grooves. A frame is set inside the two limiting grooves. A filter screen is fixedly connected inside the frame. A nozzle assembly is installed on the top of the inner wall of the box.
[0006] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the movable rod passes through the box body, the movable rod is slidably connected to the box body, and the box body is provided with a placement hole.
[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a plate is fixedly connected to the frame, and a handle is fixedly connected to the plate, the handle being a curved surface design.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a discharge pipe is fixed and connected to one side of the box body, and a valve is provided on the discharge pipe.
[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the box body, a screw is threadedly connected to the fixing plate, and a movable plate is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the screw.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a knob is fixedly connected to the top of the screw, and the knob has several grooves.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: two blocking plates are fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable plate, and two telescopic rods are fixedly connected to the top of the movable plate, with the top ends of the telescopic rods fixed to the fixed plate.
[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: two reinforcing rods are fixedly connected to one side of the box body, and the reinforcing rods are fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. This easy-to-clean electroplating solution recovery equipment consists of a first connecting rod, a second connecting rod, a motor, a placement box, and a through hole. In use, the electroplated metal is placed inside the placement box. The motor is then started, driving the second connecting rod to rotate. During the 180-degree rotation of the second connecting rod, it pulls the connecting plate to the right via the first connecting rod. As the second connecting rod continues to rotate 180 degrees, it pushes the connecting plate to the left via the first connecting rod, thus achieving the reciprocating left-right movement of the connecting plate, the movable rod, and the placement box. At this point, the spray nozzle assembly is activated to rinse the metal. The rinsed electroplating solution and metal fall through the through hole onto a filter screen. After filtration, metal debris remains on the filter screen, while the electroplating solution falls to the bottom of the tank. When it is necessary to discharge the electroplating solution, the valve is opened. During the rinsing process, the reciprocating left-right movement of the metal generates vibration, accelerating the fall of metal debris and electroplating solution, facilitating metal cleaning, and improving the recovery efficiency of the electroplating solution.
[0015] 2. This easy-to-clean electroplating solution recovery equipment features a screw, baffle plate, filter screen, frame, and limiting grooves. When the filter screen needs to be removed, turning the knob rotates the screw. Since the screw is threaded onto the fixed plate, it moves upwards as it rotates, causing the moving plate and baffle plate to move upwards. At this point, the baffle plate no longer obstructs the plate, allowing the filter screen to be removed by gripping the handle. When the filter screen needs to be installed, the frame is slid into the two limiting grooves, and the knob is turned in the opposite direction to rotate the screw. The screw moves the moving plate and baffle plate downwards, where the baffle plate obstructs the plate, thus completing the filter screen installation. This equipment facilitates the filtration of metal and electroplating solution through the filter screen, simplifying subsequent electroplating solution recovery and making it easy to disassemble and clean the filter screen, preventing clogging after prolonged use.

[0023] The technical solution of this patent will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0024] like Figure 1-6As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: an easy-to-clean electroplating solution recycling device, including a box body 1, a support plate 4 fixedly connected to one side of the box body 1, a motor 6 fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 4, a second connecting rod 20 fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 6, a first connecting rod 19 rotatably connected to one end of the second connecting rod 20 via a rotating shaft, a connecting plate 18 rotatably connected to one end of the first connecting rod 19, two movable rods 17 fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate 18, the movable rods 17 passing through the box body 1, the movable rods 17 slidably connected to the box body 1, and a placement hole 23 is provided on the box body 1.
[0025] Two movable rods 17 are fixedly connected to a placement box 7 at one end. The placement box 7 has several through holes 15. Two sliding strips 16 are fixedly connected to the placement box 7. A sliding groove 21 is provided inside the box body 1 corresponding to the position of the sliding strip 16. Because of the sliding strip 16 and the sliding groove 21, when the placement box 7 moves, the sliding strip 16 will slide inside the sliding groove 21. The sliding strip 16 and the sliding groove 21 can limit the placement box 7 and improve the stability of the movement of the placement box 7. There are two sliding grooves 21. The sliding strip 16 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 21. A discharge pipe 8 is fixed and connected to one side of the box body 1. A valve 9 is provided on the discharge pipe 8.
[0026] Two limiting grooves 22 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the housing 1. A frame 25 is set inside the two limiting grooves 22. A plate 24 is fixedly connected to the frame 25. A handle 27 is fixedly connected to the plate 24. Because the handle 27 is provided, it provides a gripping point, making it easy for personnel to hold the handle 27 to remove the filter screen 26, improving the convenience of operation. The handle 27 has a curved surface design. The filter screen 26 is fixedly connected inside the frame 25.
[0027] A nozzle assembly 5 is installed on the top of the inner wall of the housing 1. A fixing plate 2 is fixedly connected to the housing 1. A screw 11 is threadedly connected to the fixing plate 2. A movable plate 13 is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the screw 11. A knob 10 is fixedly connected to the top end of the screw 11. Several grooves are provided on the knob 10. Because several grooves are provided on the knob 10, friction can be increased, making it easier for personnel to rotate the knob 10 and improving the ease of operation.
[0028] Two blocking plates 14 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable plate 13, and two telescopic rods 12 are fixedly connected to the top of the movable plate 13. The top of the telescopic rods 12 is fixed to the fixed plate 2. Two reinforcing rods 3 are fixedly connected to one side of the box body 1. Because of the reinforcing rods 3, the reinforcing rods 3 can support the support plate 4, thereby improving the stability of the support plate 4. The reinforcing rods 3 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 4.
[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0030] In use, the electroplated metal is placed inside the placement box 7. At this time, the motor 6 is started to drive the second connecting rod 20 to rotate. During the rotation of the second connecting rod 20 by 180 degrees, the second connecting rod 20 will pull the connecting plate 18 to the right through the first connecting rod 19. During the rotation of the second connecting rod 20 by 180 degrees, the second connecting rod 20 will push the connecting plate 18 to the left through the first connecting rod 19, thereby realizing the reciprocating left and right movement of the connecting plate 18, the movable rod 17 and the placement box 7. At this time, the nozzle assembly 5 is started to rinse the metal. The rinsed electroplating liquid and metal will fall from the through hole 15 onto the filter screen 26. After being filtered by the filter screen 26, the metal debris remains on the filter screen 26, while the electroplating liquid falls into the inner bottom of the box 1. When it is necessary to drain the electroplating liquid, the valve 9 can be opened.
[0031] When the filter screen 26 needs to be removed, turn the knob 10 to drive the screw 11 to rotate. Since the screw 11 is threaded onto the fixed plate 2, it will move upward as it rotates. The screw 11 will drive the moving plate 13 and the blocking plate 14 to move upward. At this time, the blocking plate 14 will no longer block the plate 24, and the filter screen 26 can be removed by holding the handle 27. When the filter screen 26 needs to be installed, slide the frame 25 into the two limiting grooves 22 and turn the knob 10 in the opposite direction to drive the screw 11 to rotate. The screw 11 will drive the moving plate 13 and the blocking plate 14 to move downward. At this time, the blocking plate 14 will block the plate 24, thus completing the installation of the filter screen 26.
