A plating hooking apparatus incorporated into an automatic conveyer permits plate-objects to rotate in and above a plating tank. This apparatus has a current conduction bar extending over the plating tank, hung-down rods suspended from the current conduction bar, hooking jigs rotatably secured to the lower ends of the hung-down rods, a driven rod engaging with a driving unit to move laterally and drive transmission means for rotating the hooking jigs by propagating the lateral movement of the driven rod to the hooking jigs. The drive transmission means includes a rack, a pinion, first means for converting a rotation of the pinion into a rectilinear motion, second means for converting the rectilinear motion into a rotary motion and means for propagating the rotary motion to the hooking jigs. With this arrangement, the hooking jigs are capable of rotating in and above the plating tank.
