[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figures 1-2 This utility model provides a technical solution: a hot-dip tinning process device for copper wire, which is mounted on a base 1. The base 1 also has a feeding rod 2, and a feeding tray 21 on the feeding rod 2. The feeding tray 21 contains copper wire 8 to be hot-dip tinned. The feeding tray 21 can rotate on the feeding rod 2, thereby releasing the copper wire 8 into the hot-dip tinning bath 4 for the hot-dip tinning process. The base 1 also has a discharging rod 7, and a discharging tray 71 on the discharging rod 7. The discharging tray 71 rotates to wind and collect the tinned copper wire 8, thus completing convenient feeding and discharging. The discharging tray 71 is used to collect the tinned copper wire 8 for hot-dip tinning. Includes:

[0027] First, the loading tray 21 placed on the loading rod 2 rotates to release the copper wire 8 coiled in it for hot-dip tinning. The released copper wire 8 enters the hot-dip pool 4 set on the base 1 to complete the hot-dip tinning process. After that, the tin-plated copper wire 8 is conveyed to the unloading rod 7. The unloading tray 71 on the unloading rod 7 rotates to wind the tin-plated copper wire 8, thereby collecting the copper wire 8 and completing the entire loading, tinning and unloading process.

[0028] A limiting unit, located on the base 1, is used to limit the size of the copper wire 8. The limiting unit includes a first limiting plate 3 and a second limiting plate 5. Both the first limiting plate 3 and the second limiting plate 5 are provided with lead-in holes 31. The first limiting plate 3 is used to guide the copper wire 8, thereby ensuring that the subsequent copper wire 8 can enter the hot-dip tin-plating bath 4 stably and smoothly. The lead-in holes 31 on the first limiting plate 3 are used to ensure the stable movement of the copper wire 8. The lead-in holes 31 on the second limiting plate 5 are used to scrape off excess tin liquid on the copper wire 8. After the copper wire 8 completes the hot-dip tin-plating process, the second limiting plate 5 scrapes off the excess tin liquid on the copper wire 8 through the lead-in holes 31, thereby making the copper wire 8 evenly covered with tin liquid. The lead-in holes 31 are rounded to facilitate the lead-in connection of the copper wire 8.

[0029] The limiting unit plays a crucial role: it is mounted on the base 1 and consists of a first limiting plate 3 and a second limiting plate 5. Both plates have lead-in holes 31, which are rounded to facilitate the lead-in of copper wires 8. The copper wires 8 released from the loading tray 21 first pass through the lead-in holes 31 of the first limiting plate 3. The first limiting plate 3 guides the copper wires 8, and the lead-in holes 31 ensure stable movement of the copper wires 8, allowing them to smoothly enter the hot dipping bath 4 for tin plating. After tin plating, the copper wires 8 then pass through the lead-in holes 31 of the second limiting plate 5. These lead-in holes 31 scrape off excess molten tin from the copper wires 8, ensuring that the surface of the copper wires 8 is evenly coated with molten tin. Subsequently, the copper wires 8 are conveyed to the unloading tray 71 for storage.

[0030] Hot dipping tank 4 is located on base 1 and is used for hot dipping copper wire 8 to perform tin plating. Hot dipping tank 4 is filled with molten tin and is equipped with ultrasonic waves to enhance the tin plating effect. After the copper wire 8 passes through the first limiting plate 3, it is guided to the limiting rod 42 and then molten tin is poured into hot dipping tank 4. The hot dipping tank 4 is also equipped with the limiting rod 42 to change the movement trajectory of the copper wire 8 so that the copper wire 8 can be immersed in the molten tin for a long distance. The hot dipping tank 4 is also equipped with a heating plate to ensure that the molten tin in the hot dipping tank 4 does not solidify.

[0031] After the copper wire 8 passes through the first limiting plate 3, it is led onto the limiting rod 42, and then molten tin is poured into the hot immersion bath 4. The heating plate inside the hot immersion bath 4 can ensure that the molten tin in the hot immersion bath 4 will not solidify. After the copper wire 8 passes through the first limiting plate 3, it is led onto the limiting rod 42 in the hot immersion bath 4. The limiting rod 42 can change the movement trajectory of the copper wire 8, so that the copper wire 8 can be immersed in the molten tin for a long distance. At the same time, the ultrasonic waves in the hot immersion bath 4 can play a role in enhancing the tin plating effect on the copper wire 8.

[0032] The drying mechanism 6, located on the limiting unit, is used to dry the copper wire 8 after hot-dip tinning. The drying mechanism 6 is located outside the lead-in hole 31 of the second limiting plate 5. When the copper wire 8 after hot-dip tinning enters the drying mechanism 6 through the lead-in hole 31, the drying mechanism 6 is used to dry the copper wire 8 after tinning. The drying mechanism 6 is equipped with a hot air blower 61, which is used to blow air onto the copper wire 8 in the drying mechanism 6. The bottom of the drying mechanism 6 is equipped with a return tank 62, which is used to receive the molten tin dripping from the copper wire 8. The hot-dip tank 4 is also equipped with a return hole 41, which is connected to the return tank 62 to ensure that the dripping molten tin can flow back into the hot-dip tank 4 for reuse. The bottom of the return tank 62 is equipped with a heating plate to prevent the dripping molten tin from solidifying and sticking in the return tank 62, which could cause blockage after long-term use.

[0033] The drying mechanism 6 is located outside the lead-in hole 31 of the second limiting plate 5 of the limiting unit. After the copper wire 8 is hot-dip tinned, it enters the drying mechanism 6 after passing through the lead-in hole 31. The hot air blower 61 on the drying mechanism 6 blows air into the copper wire 8 inside to dry the tinned copper wire 8. During the drying process, the molten tin dripping from the copper wire 8 is received by the return tank 62 at the bottom of the drying mechanism 6. The heating plate at the bottom of the return tank 62 can prevent the molten tin from solidifying and sticking in the tank, causing blockage. The return tank 62 is connected to the return hole 41 on the hot-dip tank 4, so that the received molten tin can flow back to the hot-dip tank 4 for reuse. The heating plate at the bottom of the return tank 62 can prevent the dripping molten tin from solidifying and sticking in the return tank 62, causing blockage after long-term use.

[0034] When using the hot-dip tinning equipment for copper wire, the copper wire 8 is first connected and arranged. The copper wire 8 to be tinned is coiled in the feeding tray 21 on the feeding rod 2 and sequentially threaded through the threading hole 31 of the first limiting plate 3, the limiting rod 42 in the hot-dip tank 4, the threading hole 31 of the second limiting plate 5, and the drying mechanism 6, finally connecting to the unloading tray 71 on the unloading rod 7, completing the overall path connection of the copper wire from the feeding tray 21 to the unloading tray 71. After the copper wire 8 is connected, molten tin is poured into the hot-dip tank 4, and the heating plate in the hot-dip tank 4 ensures that the tin does not solidify. Then, the feeding tray 21 releases the copper wire 8 by rotating, and the copper wire 8 is placed in the first limiting plate 3. The guide and lead-in hole 31, with rounded corners, facilitates lead-in and moves stably under the action. After the trajectory is changed by the limit rod 42, it is immersed in the molten tin for a long distance. The ultrasonic waves in the hot immersion tank 4 enhance the tin plating effect. The tin-plated copper wire 8 passes through the lead-in hole 31 of the second limit plate 5. Excess molten tin is scraped off to ensure uniform adhesion. Then it enters the drying mechanism 6. The hot air blower 61 blows air to dry it. The molten tin dripping during drying is received by the return tank 62. The heating plate at the bottom of the return tank 62 prevents solidification and blockage. It is also connected to the hot immersion tank 4 through the return hole 41 to realize the reuse of molten tin. Finally, the processed copper wire 8 is rotated and wound by the unloading tray 71 to collect it, completing the whole process.
