Abstract

An electric plating hanging rod assembly for supporting a work piece to be plated, comprises a hanging rod having an upper retaining bar and a lower retaining bar; a distal end of the upper retaining bar far away from the hanging rod being pointed upwards; and a distal end of the lower retaining bar far away from the hanging rod being pointed downwards. The hanging rod extended with at least one upper supporting rod and at least one lower supporting rod which are alternatively arranged; at a distal end of the upper supporting rod far away from the hanging rod is fixed with an upper retaining bar and at a distal end of the lower supporting rod far away from the hanging rod is fixed with a lower retaining bar. A distal end of each of the upper and lower retaining is formed as a tapered reduced end.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An electric plating hanging rod assembly for supporting a work piece to be plated, comprising:
 a hanging rod having an upper retaining bar and a lower retaining bar; a distal end of the upper retaining bar far away from the hanging rod being pointed upwards; and a distal end of the lower retaining bar far away from the hanging rod being pointed downwards.   
     
     
         2 . The electric plating hanging rod assembly for supporting a work piece to be plated as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the hanging rod extended with at least one upper supporting rod and at least one lower supporting rod which are alternatively arranged; at a distal end of the upper supporting rod far away from the hanging rod is fixed with an upper retaining bar and at a distal end of the lower supporting rod far away from the hanging rod is fixed with a lower retaining bar. 
     
     
         3 . The electric plating hanging rod assembly for supporting a work piece to be plated as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the upper retaining bar is retained to the upper supporting rod through a movable assembling unit; and the lower retaining bar is retained to the lower supporting rod through a movable assembling unit so that the upper retaining bar and the lower retaining bar are updatable from the respective upper supporting rod and the lower supporting rod. 
     
     
         4 . The electric plating hanging rod assembly for supporting a work piece to be plated as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein a distal end of the upper retaining bar far away from the hanging rod is formed as a tapered reduced end; and a distal end of the lower retaining bar far away from the hanging rod is formed as a tapered reduced end. 
     
     
         5 . A method for supporting a work piece to be plated by using electric plating hanging rod assembly, comprising the steps of
 taking a hanging rod; wherein the hanging rod is retained with an upper retaining bar and a lower retaining bar; the work piece has an upper through hole and a lower through hole; a distal end of the upper retaining bar far away from the hanging rod is pointed upwards; and a distal end of the lower retaining bar far away from the hanging rod is pointed downwards;   passing the upper retaining bar of the hanging rod through the upper through hole to be being tightly engaged therewith; and passing the lower retaining bar of the hanging rod through the lower through hole to be tightly engaged therewith;   sinking the hanging rod with the work piece into an electric plating tank for electrically plating; and   after plating, lifting the hanging rod and the work piece from the tank.
