Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroplating technology, specifically to an upper anode box support structure, an anode box, and a horizontal electroplating line. Background Technology

[0002] In existing horizontal electroplating lines, an electroplating tank is typically provided. The workpiece to be plated moves horizontally within the electroplating tank. The electroplating tank contains an upper anode box and a lower anode box. The workpiece to be plated acts as the cathode, moving between the upper and lower anode boxes. Anode material is placed in both the upper and lower anode boxes. The electroplating solution filling the electroplating tank connects the anode material and the workpiece to be plated, allowing the cations in the electroplating solution to adhere to the cathode, forming a plating layer.

[0003] Normally, the gap between the upper and lower anode boxes is 8 mm. However, when the plate to be plated is a thin plate less than 8 mm thick, the gap between the upper and lower anode boxes is relatively large. As the plate is impacted and disturbed by the jet, it fluctuates up and down in the gap between the upper and lower anode boxes, which seriously affects the coating quality of the plate. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides an upper anode box support structure to solve the problem that in existing electroplating tanks, due to the relatively large gap between the upper and lower anode boxes, the plate to be plated fluctuates up and down in the gap between the upper and lower anode boxes as a result of the impact and disturbance of the jet, which seriously affects the plating quality of the plate to be plated.

[0005] In a first aspect, this utility model provides an upper anode box support structure, comprising: An upper support base is located on the side of the upper frame and is fixedly connected to the upper frame; an upper anode box is fixedly installed inside the upper frame. A lower support base is located on the side of the lower frame and is fixedly connected to the lower frame; a lower anode box is fixedly installed inside the lower frame. The adjusting screw has its lower end abutting in the hole of the lower support seat, and its upper end is threaded into the upper support seat. The upper anode box support structure is adapted so that when the adjusting screw is rotated, the upper support seat drives the upper frame to move downwards, thereby driving the upper anode box to move downwards, thus reducing the gap between the upper and lower anode boxes and adapting to the thickness of the workpiece to be plated. Beneficial effects: By adopting the above technical solution, this application can quickly adjust the installation height of the upper anode box according to the thickness of the workpiece to be plated, ensuring that the gap between the upper and lower anode boxes is at a suitable size. This allows for a smaller gap, adapting to the thickness of the workpiece, reducing the impact and disturbance of the jet stream on the workpiece, making the plate movement more stable, and ensuring the coating quality of the workpiece.

[0006] Optionally, an upper jet branch pipe is fixed on the upper frame; multiple upper jet branch pipes are connected to the upper jet main pipe; an adjusting pipe is provided on the upper jet main pipe; the adjusting pipe is arranged vertically; the adjusting pipe is fitted snugly to the lower inner circumference of the inner sleeve; the outer circumference of the inner sleeve is threadedly connected to the lower inner circumference of the outer sleeve; the upper part of the outer sleeve is fitted to the outer circumference of the upper water inlet pipe; the lower part of the upper water inlet pipe is fitted inside the upper inner circumference of the inner sleeve; the dimension of the adjusting pipe inside the inner sleeve is greater than the downward movement height of the upper anode box; A first sealing ring is provided between the inner circumference of the outer sleeve and the upper water inlet pipe; a second sealing ring is provided between the inner circumference of the inner sleeve and the upper water inlet pipe. The upper anode box support structure has an adjustment state where, when the upper anode box moves downward, the inner sleeve is loosened and the adjusting pipe moves downward; and a locking state where, after the gap between the upper and lower anode boxes is fixed, the inner sleeve is screwed into the outer sleeve. Beneficial effects: This application adopts the above technical solution, which reduces the installation height of the upper anode box while simultaneously reducing the height of the adjusting pipe. Furthermore, by tightening the threads of the inner and outer sleeves to ensure sealing of the pipeline connection, it adapts to the installation height of the upper anode box. This not only simplifies operation but also saves time and effort.

[0007] Optionally, an adjusting nut is fixedly provided on the adjusting screw, and the adjusting nut is adapted to rotate the adjusting screw. Beneficial effect: The above technical solution adopted in this application facilitates the adjustment of the adjusting screw.

[0008] Optionally, it also includes: A locking nut, threaded and rotated on the adjusting screw near the upper support, is adapted to tighten and fit against the upper support after the gap between the upper and lower anode boxes is fixed, thereby locking the adjusting screw. Beneficial effect: This application employs the above technical solution to quickly lock the adjusting screw.

[0009] Optionally, it also includes: A set bolt, threaded and rotating on the lower support, has an annular groove in the portion of the adjusting screw located within the lower support. The set bolt is adapted to be screwed into the annular groove after the gap between the upper and lower anode boxes is fixed, thereby securing the adjusting screw.
