Abstract (en)

[origin: US4415422A] An improved galvanizing device for the galvanic precipitation of aluminum from an anhydrous, aprotic, and oxygen-free aluminum-organic electrolyte is provided. The known device having an annularly shaped galvanizing trough, which is sealed from the atmosphere and which utilizes a centrally located, rotatable support mechanism which guides the goods carriers through the electrolyte in a circular, rotating manner, and also furnishes the goods carriers with an electrical contact, is herein provided with separate charging and discharging locks attached to the galvanizing trough. Each of the locks is provided with a U-shaped fluid lock to maintain the gaseous seal and an endless chain conveyor to transport the goods carriers to and from the galvanizing trough. Additionally, the anode plates which are located in the electrolyte trough are provided with a transport rod to permit their removal and replacement in a manner similar to that utilized with the goods carriers.
