Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroplating processing technology, specifically to a multi-station suspended transmission device for electroplating processing parts. Background Technology

[0002] Electroplated parts refer to industrial products in which one or more layers of metal or alloy plating are deposited on the surface of metal or non-metal substrates (such as steel, aluminum, plastic, ceramics, etc.) through electroplating processes to improve the performance of the substrate, enhance its appearance, or endow it with special functions. Suspended conveyor equipment for electroplated parts is the core logistics hub of an automated electroplating production line. It is mainly used to precisely and continuously transport the electroplated parts to be processed to various stations such as pretreatment, electroplating, and post-treatment via suspension, achieving automated production with "workpieces not touching the ground."

[0003] Chinese utility model patent CN212610972U discloses a suspended workpiece conveying device for electroplating. The device comprises a frame, a crossbeam, a conveyor motor, a drive wheel, a driven wheel, a belt, sliding frames, a workpiece clamping device, and a brush cleaning device. The crossbeam is mounted on the frame, and the conveyor motor, drive wheel, and driven wheel are all mounted on the crossbeam. The output shaft of the conveyor motor is connected to the drive wheel. The belt is fitted between the drive wheel and the driven wheel. Multiple sliding frames are slidably mounted on the crossbeam at equal intervals, located above the belt. The workpiece clamping device is located below the sliding frames. This utility model allows for manual fixation of the workpiece using the workpiece clamping device. The conveyor motor then drives the workpiece to the electroplating area, resulting in high conveying efficiency. After processing, the workpiece is removed from the electroplating area and sent to the brush cleaning device to remove residual electroplating solution, thus improving the electroplating quality of the workpiece.

[0004] However, in the process of using this utility model, each workpiece clamping device moves synchronously. When the electroplating effect of a certain workpiece is not good, or when a second electroplating is required, all workpieces will move at the same time, which greatly reduces the efficiency of electroplated parts and cannot meet production needs. Therefore, a multi-station suspended transmission device for electroplated parts is proposed to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a multi-station suspended conveyor for electroplated parts, which has the advantage of independent control of movement. It solves the problem that in existing suspended conveyor devices, each workpiece clamping device moves synchronously. However, when the electroplating effect of a certain workpiece is not good, or when a second electroplating is required, all workpieces will move at the same time, which will greatly reduce the efficiency of electroplated parts and fail to meet production needs.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a multi-station suspended conveying device for electroplated parts, comprising two support frames and an electroplating box disposed between the two support frames, wherein an independent conveying mechanism capable of conveying the electroplated parts is disposed between the two support frames;

[0007] The independent conveying mechanism includes a transverse guide rail disposed between two support frames. A mounting frame is slidably connected to the outside of the transverse guide rail. A drive motor is fixedly connected to the back of the mounting frame. A drive wheel extending into the mounting frame is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor. The drive wheel abuts against the transverse guide rail.

[0008] Furthermore, the cross-sectional shape of the transverse guide rail is I-shaped, and there are two drive wheels, with the drive wheels on the front being rotatably connected to the mounting bracket.

[0009] Furthermore, a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting bracket, and positioning rollers are rotatably connected to both the left and right sides inside the fixing plate.

[0010] Furthermore, a mounting base is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting frame, and an electric hoist is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting base near the electroplating box. A suspension frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the electric hoist.

[0011] Furthermore, a support member is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame, and an adjustable support rod extending to the top of the support member is slidably connected inside the support member. A fixed seat is fixedly connected to the top of the adjustable support rod, and the fixed seat is fixedly connected to the transverse guide rail.

[0012] Furthermore, one side of the support member is threaded with an adjusting bolt that passes through the adjusting support rod, and the adjusting support rod has an adjusting hole inside that matches the adjusting bolt.

[0013] Furthermore, each of the two support frames is rotatably connected to a four-wheeled wheel at its bottom, which are evenly distributed at the bottom of the two support frames.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a multi-station suspended conveyor for electroplated parts, which has the following advantages:

[0015] 1. This multi-station suspended conveyor for electroplated parts uses a transverse guide rail to suspend and support the mounting frame. A drive motor rotates the drive wheel, which, under the action of the transverse guide rail, moves the mounting frame laterally. An electric hoist and suspension frame facilitate the suspended transport of the electroplated parts. Each mounting frame is controlled by an individual drive motor, significantly improving electroplating efficiency.

[0016] 2. This multi-station suspended conveyor for electroplated parts, by setting adjustable support rods and support components, can adjust the height of the transverse guide rail. This allows for easy adjustment of the overall height of the device while using an electric hoist to lift and move the electroplated parts, making it suitable for different working environments and improving the practicality of the device. It solves the problem in existing suspended conveyor devices where each workpiece clamping device moves synchronously. However, when the electroplating effect of one workpiece is poor or a second electroplating is required, all workpieces will move simultaneously, greatly reducing the efficiency of electroplating and failing to meet production needs.
