2. Description of the Related Art Printed wiring boards are widely used in many fields. A copper foil is required for a printed wiring board, and an electrolytic copper foil is usually used for its manufacture. When manufacturing an electrolytic copper foil, it is necessary to have a uniform thickness without causing point defects such as pinholes and abnormal deposits.

In the production of a conventional electrolytic copper foil, referring to FIG. 9, a rotating drum made of Ti or SUS is used as a cathode, and as an anode, for example, a cross section of about 1/4 circle of the cathode drum 7 is used. Two lead plates are installed below the arc-shaped electrode 10, and the electrolytic solution is supplied from between the electrodes 10 and 10.
The structure is such that the plating solution flows in this gap. A direct current is passed through this device to deposit copper on the cathode drum 7, and the deposited copper 8 is continuously peeled off and wound up by a winding device 9.

Conventionally commonly used anodes are Pb,
Alternatively, it is a binary or multi-component alloy of Pb and Sb, Sn, Ag, In, Ca or the like. Therefore, the lead oxide formed on the surface of the anode dissolves into the electrolytic bath as Pb ions,
Reacts with sulfate ions in the electrolytic bath, forming lead sulfate and suspending in the bath. The sludge of lead sulfate can be removed by installing a filter, but this maintenance work requires a great deal of labor. If the sludge is not removed sufficiently, the sludge will be deposited on the inner wall surface of the electrolytic cell or the pipe and adversely affect the liquid flow. Further, when lead sulfate sludge adheres to the cathode drum, point defects such as pinholes or abnormal deposits occur at the locations. This is a fatal defect of the copper foil as described above.

When lead-based electrodes are used, current concentration and
Erosion locally wears lead, and the distance between the poles varies depending on the location. As a countermeasure against this, the surface of the lead anode is regularly cut. However, the manufacturing operation rate is reduced and the distance between the electrodes is increased, which leads to an increase in cell voltage, that is, an increase in manufacturing cost. Then, due to the non-uniformity of the inter-electrode distance, thickness unevenness occurs in the width direction of the copper foil.

It is possible to prevent the occurrence of pinholes and abnormal deposits caused by such sludge of sulfate, and to solve the thickness unevenness in the width direction of the copper foil caused by the nonuniformity of the inter-electrode distance due to lead wear. Therefore, as the arc plate-shaped anode facing the cathode drum, an electrode in which the surface of the valve metal substrate such as Ti, Ta, Nb, Zr or the like is mainly coated with a platinum group metal or its oxide as a catalyst is used as an insoluble anode. Has been proposed (Japanese Patent Publication No. 1-56153).

However, even with this method, local wear of the anode and short circuit due to abnormal deposition of copper on the cathode side occur. However, since the integrated anode arc plate is used, these repairs cannot be performed without replacing the entire anode, and maintenance or repair work such as handling when installing the anode in the device, its cost, equipment cost. It is a factor that lowers the operating rate of plating equipment.

More importantly, the use of an integrated anode circular arc plate causes a so-called edge effect of current density during energization. This edge effect concentrates the current especially near the end of the anode plate near the plating solution supply port, causing the electrode catalyst coating layer of only one part of the integrated anode plate to be consumed, and the film in the width direction of the copper foil. The thickness becomes non-uniform, resulting in uneven thickness. In addition, the film thickness unevenness increases with continuous operation and eventually becomes unusable for practical use, so that the life of the anode is shortened. And such a phenomenon is especially 20
It becomes important in the production of copper foil with a thickness of less than μm. In fact, even in the above Japanese Patent Publication No. 1-56153, 1
When obtaining a copper foil of 8 μm, it is described that the film thickness unevenness is within 2%, and the film thickness unevenness is not within 1%. In addition, it is difficult to form a coating on the arc-shaped substrate, and it is difficult to manufacture the coating, and it is difficult to make the coating thickness uniform.

According to the present invention, the first purpose of the present invention is maintenance and repair for partial wear of the electrode, which is extremely easy and economical because only the necessary part needs to be replaced by employing the split type insoluble electrode. Target. The electrode may be formed in a quadrilateral shape such as a rectangle, a square or the like having a side shorter than the length of the anode (direction along the rotational drive of the cathode, that is, the rotational drive direction) and the width direction. Since a plurality of electrode short pieces, which are short piece flat plates, are arranged on the back plate without any gaps, it is easy to manufacture the short electrode pieces and assemble the anode, and the R-type assembly accuracy is high.
Further, the shape and dimension accuracy of the electrode short piece and the uniformity of the film thickness of the platinum group metal or its oxide film coated on the valve metal substrate are high. Further, since the interval between the adjacent sides of each electrode short piece is set to 0.5 mm or less, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of film thickness unevenness such as streaks in the longitudinal direction of the plated film as much as possible.
Good results are obtained. The effect of suppressing this film thickness unevenness is
This is further improved by arranging the electrode short pieces in a zigzag manner so that the sides along the rotational driving direction of the cathode drum are not aligned.

It is achieved by reducing the edge effect and making the current distribution uniform by making a large number of At the same time, the rate of increase in edge effect due to continuous operation also decreases, and the life of the electrode piece also increases. From these, the life of the anode becomes extremely long.

By the way, in various electroplating methods,
It is conventionally known to use a split type electrode. For example, in Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 1-149465, when an electroplated steel sheet is manufactured, a steel strip is continuously moved linearly in a plating tank, and an anode is arranged opposite to this, It is shown that the anode is divided in parallel to the steel strip conveying direction (see FIGS. 4 and 5 of the same publication). However, in this way, when it is attempted to divide the rotating cathode drum parallel to the rotational driving direction, each divided piece must have an equal arc shape, and in particular, a platinum group metal or oxide coating is provided on the valve metal substrate. When provided, it is extremely difficult to manufacture. It is also difficult to make the coating thickness uniform.
Moreover, in addition to this, if the electrode pieces are divided only parallel to the transport or rotation direction of the plating substrate (steel strip or cathode drum), the current density becomes uneven, and streaks occur in the longitudinal direction of the plating film. Although it is not practical for practical use due to the shape defect and the film thickness unevenness in the width direction, this publication does not pay attention to this point.

On the other hand, in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 1-176100 and Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 2-136058, when plating is performed while continuously moving the steel strip linearly, a plurality of pieces are divided in the strip direction and the transport (longitudinal) direction. Then, a split type electrode formed by combining a large number of electrode pieces has been proposed. However, since the electrodes disclosed in these publications are flat plates and are not arc-shaped like the electrodes of the present invention, it is difficult to apply them to the arc-shaped electrodes of the present invention.

Further, in Japanese Patent Publication No. 49-18902, an annular electrolytic cell is provided along a cathode roller in the production of a magnetic thin film, and the electrolytic cell is divided into a plurality of separating cells by a partition plate. An example in which an anode is individually arranged in a bath is disclosed. This one is similar to the present invention in that the anode is separated, but since the anode is not divided and integrated, a vortex flow of the plating solution occurs in the gap between the separated anodes, resulting in nonuniform film thickness. I will end up. For this reason, in this publication, the separation tank is used, but on the contrary, the liquid composition becomes nonuniform, the apparatus becomes complicated, and its control is difficult.
