Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroplating equipment, and more particularly to an electroplating anode ball cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] The anode balls used in electroplating (such as copper balls, nickel balls, etc.) are consumed during the electroplating process. During the precipitation of metal ions, anode sludge formed by other impurities is also generated. This anode sludge will accumulate at the bottom of the titanium basket or adhere to the surface of the anode balls, hindering normal dissolution. In order to ensure the electroplating quality of the entire production line, the anode balls need to be cleaned regularly during the production process.

[0003] The commonly used cleaning method in the prior art is to remove the anode balls from the titanium basket and then put them into the cleaning tank for manual agitation and cleaning. The entire cleaning process is done manually, and the anode balls and anode mud sink to the bottom. If they are not agitated during the cleaning process, the cleaning effect will be poor. Therefore, manual cleaning is labor-intensive and inefficient. Utility Model Content

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1 to 4 To further describe, this utility model discloses a cleaning device for electroplated anode balls, including a cleaning tank 1, a drive motor 2, a cleaning support 3, and a cleaning roller 5. The drive motor 2 is located outside the cleaning tank 1, and its output end is inserted into and passes through the tank wall of the cleaning tank 1, connecting to the cleaning roller 5 inside the cleaning tank 1. The output end of the drive motor 2 is provided with a transmission gear 20, which is located above the cleaning roller 5 and connected to the side guard plate 50 of the cleaning roller 5 to prevent the cleaning liquid from overflowing from the transmission rod of the drive motor 2. The cleaning support 3 is installed inside the cleaning tank 1, and the cleaning roller 5 is placed inside the cleaning tank 1 and mounted on the cleaning support 3. The cleaning support 3 supports the cleaning roller 5, and the cleaning roller 5 can be cleaned by lifting the cleaning support 3. The cylinder 5 is removed and placed into the cleaning tank 1; the cleaning support 3 is provided with rotating bearings 6 at both ends, the cleaning drum 5 is provided with side guard plates 50 at both ends, and a cleaning frame 51 is provided between the side guard plates 50. The inner wall of the cleaning frame 51 is attached with a mesh cloth 52. The end face of the side guard plate 50 is provided with a rotating shaft 502, which is adapted to the rotating bearings 6 on the cleaning support 3. The edge of the side guard plate 50 is provided with a driven tooth 501, which meshes with the transmission gear 20 of the drive motor 2. Under the drive of the drive motor 2, the transmission gear 20 drives the driven tooth 501 to rotate, thereby driving the entire cleaning drum 5 to rotate, so that the anode balls in the cleaning frame 51 roll and rub against each other, so that the anode mud attached to the balls falls off and flows out from the mesh cloth 52.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, a support block 10 is provided on both sides of the cleaning pool 1. A limiting notch 11 is provided on the support block 10. When the cleaning bracket 3 is placed into the cleaning pool 1, the support rod 32 overlaps on the limiting notch 11 of the support block 10. The limiting notch 11, together with the limiting block 320 on the support rod 32, restricts the displacement range of the cleaning bracket 3, so as to maintain the contact between the transmission gear 20 and the driven gear 501.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, the cleaning bracket 3 includes a frame 30, a crossbeam 31, and a support rod 32. The support rod 32 is disposed at the upper end of the frame 30 and extends outward from the frame 30 on both sides. The crossbeam 31 is disposed between the support rod 32 and the cleaning roller 5 to increase the support strength. Limiting blocks 320 are also provided at both ends of the support plate 33. The placement of the support rod 32 is limited by the limiting blocks 320 to prevent the cleaning bracket 3 from shifting during use and affecting the gear transmission.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the frame 30 includes a support plate 33 and a connecting strip 34. There are two support plates 33, and the connecting strip 34 is disposed between the two support plates 33. The rotating bearing 6 is embedded in the support plate 33 for fixation. In addition, to increase the support strength and stability, the lower end of the support plate 33 contacts the ground in a triangular frame-like manner, and its cross-section is "A" shaped.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the cleaning frame 51 includes a frame body 53, a frame door 54, and a locking plate 55. The frame door 54 is mounted on the frame body 53 via the locking plate 55. The frame body 53 is provided with a discharge port 56. Locking limit strips 561 are provided on both sides of the discharge port 56. When fixing the frame door 54, the locking plate 55 is deformed and snapped between the locking limit strips 561 on both sides of the discharge port 56, thereby fixing the frame door 54 to the frame body 53.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the locking plate 55 is provided with a warp strip 57, a first fastening block 58 and a second fastening block 59. The first fastening block 58 and the second fastening block 59 are located at both ends of the locking plate 55, and the warp strip 57 is located adjacent to the second fastening block 59. When installing the locking plate 55, the first fastening block 58 and the second fastening block 59 are pressed to fasten the locking limit strips 561 on both sides of the feed port 56 for fixation. The fastening state can be released by forcefully prying open the warp strip 57, so that the frame door 54 is separated from the frame body 53.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the two ends of the cleaning frame 51 are fixed to the side guard plate 50 by adhesive bonding.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the mesh fabric 52 is made of one or a blend of two of polyester, polypropylene and nylon.

[0034] In this embodiment, the cleaning tank 1, cleaning bracket 3, cleaning roller 5, rotating bearing 6, and locking plate 55 are all made of plastics such as PEEK and PTEE that have high mechanical strength and corrosion resistance.

[0035] In summary, by placing the anode balls to be cleaned into the cleaning frame, locking the frame, and then starting the drive motor, the side guard plate, which meshes with the transmission gear, rotates synchronously under the drive motor's influence. This causes the cleaning frame to rotate within the cleaning tank. As the frame rotates, the anode balls inside rub against each other, causing the detached anode mud to separate from the balls and escape through the mesh fabric. Compared to existing technologies, this method not only reduces manual labor but also further improves work efficiency and saves cleaning time.

[0036] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown above, it is understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make modifications and variations to the above embodiments, but such modifications are all included within the broad scope of the foregoing disclosure, drawings and claims.
