Background
The traditional copper plating method of the circuit board is to place the circuit board in an electroplating bath to carry out electroplating by using electroplating solution. The through hole on the circuit board uses the nozzle of the electroplating bath to match with the high-voltage motor, so that the electroplating solution is sprayed into the through hole of the circuit board. This method of injecting the plating solution into the through-hole with an appropriate pressure is only applicable to a circuit board having a low aspect ratio (aspect ratio). Once the thickness of the circuit board is increased to greatly increase the aspect ratio of the through hole, the electroplating solution cannot enter the through hole smoothly, so that the wall of the through hole cannot be plated with the copper layer smoothly, and the quality of the product is low.
Therefore, when the aspect ratio of the through hole of the circuit board is getting larger and larger, the conventional method of providing the plating solution by using the nozzle together with the high-voltage motor cannot meet the requirement. How to improve the problem of poor hole wall electroplating caused by large aspect ratio of the through hole is a need for improvement in the prior art.

Moreover, not all illustrated operations, steps and/or features may be required to implement an embodiment of the present invention. Further, each operation or step described herein may comprise several sub-steps or actions.
Another aspect of the present invention provides a method of electroplating, comprising the following steps.
(1) An electroplating apparatus 100 (shown in fig. 2 and 7) is provided.
(2) Providing an object to be plated X, wherein the object to be plated X is provided with a plurality of through holes Y which penetrate through the object to be plated X.
(3) The plating solution is poured into the upper tank 10 and the lower tank 50.
(4) The object to be plated X is electrically connected to the cathode 20, wherein the object to be plated X divides the upper tank 10 into a first tank 11 and a second tank 12, the first drain hole 61 is disposed in the first tank 11, and the second drain hole 62 is disposed in the second tank 12. In some embodiments, the object X to be plated may abut against the bottom of the upper tank 10, or the distance between the object X and the bottom of the upper tank is 0.1 cm to 100 cm, preferably 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 or 100 cm. In some embodiments, the object to be plated X is a printed circuit board having a plurality of through holes Y. Printed circuit boards include, but are not limited to, high-speed thick large boards (high-layer count). Compared with a common circuit board, the high-speed thick and large board has a large aspect ratio, so that the hole walls of the through holes Y are deep and long.
(5) The electrical equipment is provided to the cathode 20, the first anode 30 and the second anode 40 to perform the electroplating process, and the first drain hole 61 is opened, so that a part of the electroplating solution provided in the upper tank 10 flows from the second tank 12 to the first tank 11, and then flows from the first tank 11 to the lower tank 50 through the first drain hole 61. In some embodiments, in the step (5), the plating solution in the lower tank 50 is continuously pumped into the tube 80 by the liquid delivery assembly 70 and then discharged into the upper tank 10. In some embodiments, in step (5), the plating solution in the first lower tank region 52 is continuously pumped into the inner pipe 85 of the first pipe portion 81 by the first pump 71, and then discharged into the upper tank body 10 through the drain hole 821 of the second pipe portion 82. In some embodiments, the drain hole 821 is provided 5 cm to 10 cm below the liquid level of the upper tank 10. In the step (5), based on the principle of white effort, under the condition that the liquid delivery assembly 70 rapidly absorbs the electroplating solution and only opens the first drain hole 61, a part of the electroplating solution disposed in the upper tank body 10 flows from the second tank 12 to the first tank 11 through the through holes Y of the object to be plated X, so that the problem that the electroplating solution is not easily exchanged in the deep hole walls of the through holes Y is improved, and better electroplating quality is provided. In addition, in the step (5), the external pressure generated by the liquid delivery assembly 70 breaks through the surface tension between the electroplating solution and the openings of the through holes Y, and accelerates the flow velocity at the deep position of the through holes Y, so that the electroplating solution can fill the inner hole walls of the through holes Y.
(6) During the plating process, the first drain hole 61 is closed and the second drain hole 62 is opened, so that the plating solution disposed in a portion of the upper tank body 10 flows from the first tank 11 to the second tank 12, and then flows from the second tank 12 to the lower tank body 50 through the second drain hole 62. In some embodiments, in step (6), the plating solution in the lower tank 50 is continuously pumped into the tube 80 by the liquid delivery assembly 70 and then discharged into the upper tank 10. In some embodiments, in step (6), the plating solution in the second lower tank region 53 is continuously pumped into the inner pipe 85 of the second pipe portion 83 by the second pump 72, and then discharged into the upper tank body 10 through the drain hole 821 of the second pipe portion 82. In this step (6), when the first drain hole 61 is closed and the second drain hole 62 is opened, a portion of the plating solution disposed in the upper tank 10 flows from the first tank 11 to the second tank 12 according to the principle of "white effort", so that the through holes Y do not accumulate the plating thickness on the same side due to unidirectional water flow, thereby improving the uniformity of plating.
(7) The second drain hole 62 is closed during the plating process.
(8) And (5) repeating the steps (5) to (7) until the electroplating is finished.
The electroplating method of the invention enables the inner hole walls of the through holes Y to be uniformly electroplated by means of the first drain hole 61 and the second drain hole 62 in combination with the liquid conveying component 70. In addition, the first drainage hole 61 and the second drainage hole 62 are opened and closed alternately, so that the electroplating solution in the upper tank 10 is changed in different flow directions, and the uniformity of electroplating is improved.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to a preferred embodiment, it should be understood that various changes, substitutions and alterations can be made herein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.

12. A method of electroplating, comprising:
(1) providing the electroplating apparatus of claim 1;
(2) providing an object to be plated, wherein the object to be plated is provided with a plurality of through holes which penetrate through the object to be plated;
(3) injecting electroplating solution into the upper tank body and the lower tank body;
(4) electrically connecting the object to be plated with the cathode, wherein the object to be plated divides the upper tank body into a first tank and a second tank, the first drain hole is arranged in the first tank, and the second drain hole is arranged in the second tank;
(5) providing electricity to the cathode, the first anode and the second anode to perform an electroplating process, and opening the first drain hole to enable a part of the electroplating solution arranged on the upper tank body to flow from the second tank to the first tank and then flow from the first tank to the lower tank body through the first drain hole; and
(6) during the electroplating process, the first drain hole is closed and the second drain hole is opened, so that a part of the electroplating solution arranged on the upper tank body flows to the second tank from the first tank and then flows to the lower tank body from the second tank through the second drain hole.
13. The method as claimed in claim 12, wherein the step (5) further comprises discharging the plating solution in the upper tank after the plating solution in the lower tank is continuously pumped into the tube by the liquid delivery assembly.
14. The method as claimed in claim 12, wherein the step (6) further comprises discharging the plating solution in the upper tank after the plating solution in the lower tank is continuously pumped into the tube by the liquid delivery assembly.
15. The method of claim 12, wherein the object to be plated is a printed circuit board.
