Description

  The present invention relates to a surface treatment line and a surface treatment method for a bag-like workpiece for performing a plating treatment or the like on a bag-like workpiece such as a cap nut.

  A bag-like work such as a cap nut as a hub nut for fixing a vehicle wheel to the hub is subjected to a surface treatment such as plating for decoration or rust prevention. In such surface treatment, a workpiece holding jig having a tree branch shape is used to convey the bag-like workpiece to each processing step (see Patent Document 1).

  A bag-like workpiece is inserted and held in each branch of the workpiece holding jig so that the elastic force of the spring acts, and the bag-like workpiece in such a state is degreased, alkaline, acid, or multilayered. Surface treatments such as plating treatment are performed by carrying out each treatment step in various plating tanks for forming a plating film, a washing tank between each treatment tank, and the like in a series of flows.
