Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroplating equipment technology, specifically a vacuum atomization electroplating device for copper-clad steel wire. Background Technology
[0002] Steel wire is a slender metal product made from high-quality steel through processes such as rolling and drawing. Electroplating of steel wire forms a uniform and dense metal coating on its surface, which not only effectively isolates the steel wire from contact with air, moisture and corrosive media, providing excellent corrosion protection and extending its service life, but also improves the surface hardness and wear resistance of the steel wire, enhances its electrical and thermal conductivity, and makes the steel wire appear brighter and cleaner.
[0003] However, existing electroplating equipment typically involves immersing steel in a solution for electroplating. However, when the electroplating solution comes into contact with oxygen and dust in the air, it is prone to oxidation reactions that generate impurities. Alternatively, air bubbles may mix into the solution, leading to problems such as pinholes, oxidation spots, and weak adhesion in the plating layer. Utility Model Content

By equipping it with a vacuum pump and a sealed door structure, a stable vacuum environment can be formed inside the electroplating cylinder, which can prevent the atomized solution from coming into contact with oxygen and impurities in the air, reducing the risk of oxidation or contamination of atomized particles.

[0017] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0018] Reference Figures 1 to 4 This utility model discloses a vacuum atomization electroplating device for copper-clad steel wire, comprising a base frame 1, an electroplating cylinder 2 fixedly connected to the upper end of the base frame 1, a nozzle 3 provided on the inner surface of the electroplating cylinder 2, a solution tank 4 fixedly connected to the upper end of the base frame 1, a corrosion-resistant centrifugal pump installed at the bottom of the solution tank 4, an ultrasonic atomizer 5 provided at the output end of the solution tank 4, a slide rail 6 provided inside the electroplating cylinder 2, a movable frame 7 slidably connected to the slide rail 6, a sealing door 8 fixedly connected to one side of the movable frame 7, a material box 9 and a receiving box 10 fixedly connected to both sides of the movable frame 7 respectively, an outlet 11 provided on the opposite side of the material box 9 and the receiving box 10, and a vacuum pump 12 fixedly connected to the upper end of the electroplating cylinder 2.
[0019] Material box 9 is fixedly connected to material roller 13, and receiving box 10 is rotatably connected to receiving roller 14. Material box 9 and receiving box 10 are provided with guide roller 15 on the side near the discharge port 11. A first motor 16 is fixedly connected to one side of receiving box 10, and the output end of the first motor 16 is fixedly connected to receiving roller 14.
[0020] A screw 17 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the base frame 1, and a guide rod 18 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the base frame 1. A connecting frame 19 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the sealing door 8. The connecting frame 19 is threadedly connected to the screw 17, and the connecting frame 19 is slidably connected to the guide rod 18 to ensure that the connecting frame 19 moves only in a straight line, so as to avoid misalignment between the sealing door 8 and the flange interface of the electroplating cylinder 2, which would lead to sealing failure.
[0021] A second motor 20 is fixedly connected to one end of the base frame 1. The output end of the second motor 20 is fixedly connected to the screw 17. The nozzles 3 are distributed circumferentially on the inner surface of the electroplating cylinder 2 around the central axis of the electroplating cylinder 2. A drain trough 21 is provided at the bottom of the inside of the electroplating cylinder 2. A filter screen 22 is provided above the drain trough 21.
[0022] Working principle: In use, the second motor 20 is started to drive the screw 17 to rotate, which in turn moves the connecting frame 19 along the guide rod 18 away from the electroplating cylinder 2, causing the sealing door 8 and the moving frame 7 to slide out synchronously, placing the steel wire on the material roller 13. Then, one end of the wire is pulled and passed sequentially around the guide roller 15 at the outlet of the material box 9, the internal space of the electroplating cylinder 2, and the guide roller 15 at the inlet of the receiving box 10, and finally fixed on the receiving roller 14. Then, the second motor 20 is started to reverse, and the screw 17 drives the connecting frame 19 and the sealing door 8 to move towards the electroplating cylinder 2 until the sealing door 8 and the interface of the electroplating cylinder 2 are completely fitted. Then, the vacuum pump 12 is started to extract the air in the electroplating cylinder 2 until the inside reaches a vacuum. The electroplating solution in the solution tank 4 is transported to the ultra-high pressure system by a centrifugal pump. The sonic atomizer 5 atomizes the material into droplets, which are then transported through a pipe to the circumferential nozzle 3 inside the electroplating cylinder 2. The droplets are evenly sprayed into the cylinder space from multiple directions, forming a stable atomized atmosphere. Then, the first motor 16 is started to drive the receiving roller 14 to rotate, which slowly releases the wire to be electroplated from the material roller 13. Guided by the guide roller 15, the wire moves in a straight line through the atomized atmosphere zone inside the electroplating cylinder 2. During this process, the atomized copper ion droplets are evenly attached to the surface of the wire and are rapidly deposited in a vacuum environment to form a dense and uniform copper plating layer. The atomized solution droplets that are not attached to the surface of the wire will drip into the drain tank 21 at the bottom of the electroplating cylinder 2 due to gravity. Once electroplating is complete, the sealing door 8 can be opened, and the electroplated wire can be taken out from the receiving roller 14.
[0023] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
