[0024] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0025] like Figures 1-4As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a continuous ultrasonic-assisted electroplating tank for automotive trim strips, including an electroplating tank cylinder 1. A first drain port 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the electroplating tank cylinder 1, and an ultrasonic generator 12 is fixedly connected inside the middle of one side of the electroplating tank cylinder 1. An ultrasonic transducer 13 is fixedly connected to one end of the ultrasonic generator 12. A power assembly 2 is provided at the end of the electroplating tank cylinder 1 away from the first drain port 11. The power assembly 2 includes a base 21 fixedly connected to the end of the electroplating tank cylinder 1 away from the first drain port 11, and a cylinder 22 is fixedly connected to the outer side of one end of the base 21.

One end of the toothed plate 23 is meshed with a gear 24, and the lower end of the gear 24 is rotatably connected to the base 21. A lifting component 3 is provided on the upper end of the gear 24, and a cleaning component 4 is provided on the end of the lifting component 3 away from the base 21. A storage component 5 is provided on the lower end of the cleaning component 4, and a sealing component 6 is provided on the upper end of the storage component 5. When cleaning the inner wall of the electroplating tank 1, the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect can be effectively improved by the cooperation of the power component 2 and the lifting component 3, thereby increasing the electroplating processing speed.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the lifting assembly 3 includes an electric telescopic rod 31 whose upper end of the gear 24 passes through the base 21 and is fixedly connected, and whose lower end is rotatably connected to the base 21. A bracket 32 ​​is fixedly connected to the upper end of the electric telescopic rod 31. When the electric telescopic rod 31 is activated, it extends and pushes the bracket 32 ​​to move the cleaning cotton cylinder 43 and other components up or down for adjustment.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the cleaning assembly 4 includes a motor 41 fixedly connected to the upper side of the bracket 32 ​​away from the electric telescopic rod 31, and the output shaft of the motor 41 passes through the bracket 32 ​​and is fixedly connected to a rotating rod 42. A cleaning cotton cylinder 43 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the lower end of the rotating rod 42. When the motor 41 is started, the output shaft drives the rotating rod 42 and the cleaning cotton cylinder 43 to rotate, and the rotation of the cleaning cotton cylinder 43 is used to clean the inner wall of the electroplating tank cylinder 1.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the storage component 5 includes a storage cylinder 51 sleeved on the outside of the cleaning cotton cylinder 43, and a second drain port 52 fixedly connected to the end of the storage cylinder 51 away from the electroplating tank cylinder 1. The end of the storage cylinder 51 close to the electroplating tank cylinder 1 is fixedly connected to the electroplating tank cylinder 1. Deionized water is stored through the storage cylinder 51, and can be discharged through the second drain port 52 in the future.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, baffles 53 are fixedly connected to both sides of the connection end between the storage cylinder 51 and the electroplating tank cylinder 1, and the two sets of baffles 53 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the storage cylinder 51.

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, the sealing assembly 6 includes a cover plate 61 fixedly connected to the outer side of the upper end of the rotating rod 42, and a sealing gasket 62 fixedly connected to the outer side of the lower side of the cover plate 61. The lower side of the sealing gasket 62 is fitted to the storage cylinder 51, and the upper side of the electroplating tank cylinder 1 is sealed by the cover plate 61 and the sealing gasket 62.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the diameter of the cleaning cotton tube 43 is larger than the inner diameter of the electroplating tank tube 1, and the end of the ultrasonic transducer 13 away from the ultrasonic generator 12 is in contact with the inner wall of the electroplating tank tube 1.

[0032] Working principle: When cleaning the inner wall of the electroplating tank 1, the electric telescopic rod 31 is first activated to extend it, pushing the bracket 32 ​​and moving the cleaning cotton cylinder 43 upwards. Then, the cleaning cotton cylinder 43 pulls out the storage cylinder 51, and the cleaning cotton cylinder 43 dips into the deionized water in the storage cylinder 51. Next, the cylinder 22 is activated, and its output shaft pushes the gear plate 23 to move. This, in turn, uses the meshing of the gear plate 23 and the gear 24 to rotate the gear 24. The rotation of the gear 24 then drives the electric telescopic rod 31 and the bracket 32 ​​to rotate, causing the bracket 32 ​​to rotate the cleaning cotton cylinder 43 above the electroplating tank 1. During the rotation, the deionized water falling from the cleaning cotton cylinder 43 is guided back into the storage cylinder 51 or the electroplating tank 1 by the baffle 53. Then, the electric telescopic rod 31 is activated to retract, causing the bracket 32 ​​to move downwards. During the downward movement of the bracket 32, the cleaning cotton cylinder 43... Inserted into the electroplating tank 1, when the lower side of the sealing gasket 62 is in contact with the upper side of the electroplating tank 1, the upper side of the electroplating tank 1 is sealed by the cover plate 61 and the sealing gasket 62. Then, the motor 41 is started. After the motor 41 starts, the output shaft drives the rotating rod 42 and the cleaning cotton tube 43 to rotate. The rotation of the cleaning cotton tube 43 is used to clean the inner wall of the electroplating tank 1. The wastewater that falls off during cleaning is discharged through the first drain port 11. Afterwards, deionized water can be injected into the storage tube 51 for storage. Before injecting clean deionized water, the wastewater in the storage tube 51 is discharged through the second drain port 52. After cleaning, the electric telescopic rod 31 is started to drive the bracket 32 ​​and other components to move upward. The operation of the cylinder 22 causes the gear 24 to drive the electric telescopic rod 31 to rotate to the upper side of the storage tube 51. Finally, the electric telescopic rod 31 is started to retract, allowing the cleaning cotton tube 43 to be inserted into the storage tube 51 to be soaked in deionized water again.

[0033] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it.
