Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of self - tapping screws, in particular to a cross self - tapping screw with an anti - slip tooth structure. Background Technique

[0002] Self - tapping screws, also known as quick - thread screws, are fast - mounting fasteners made of steel and passivated by surface galvanizing. Self - tapping screws are mostly used for the connection between thin metal plates (such as steel plates, saw plates, etc.). When connecting, first make a threaded bottom hole in the workpiece to be connected, and then screw the self - tapping screw into the threaded bottom hole of the workpiece. In the prior art, when using self - tapping screws, most of them are composed of a nut, a screw rod and a drill bit to connect the workpiece object. Although the spiral connection method greatly reduces the possibility of the self - tapping screw falling off the workpiece, such self - tapping screws are very easy to rotate out reversely from the workpiece due to the external vibration, increasing the frequency of subsequent maintenance. In view of this, we propose a cross self - tapping screw with an anti - slip tooth structure to solve the above - mentioned problems. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a cross self - tapping screw with an anti - slip tooth structure to solve the problems mentioned in the above background technique.

[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solution: A cross self - tapping screw with an anti - slip tooth structure, comprising:

[0005] A nut, on the bottom wall of which a screw body is provided. The screw body is integrally formed with the nut. An anti - slip tooth thread is provided on the screw body. A cross - shaped groove is opened on the top wall of the nut. A locking mechanism is provided on the nut. The locking mechanism includes a locking gasket. The locking gasket is sleeved on the screw body through a through - hole opened thereon. A plurality of pointed cones are fixedly welded on the side wall of the locking gasket away from the nut. A fixing ring is provided on the side of the locking gasket away from the nut. The fixing ring is fixedly welded on the screw body.

[0006] Preferably, a threaded hole is opened on the top wall of the nut. The threaded hole penetrates the nut. A locking screw is threadedly connected in the threaded hole.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom end of the locking screw is in a pointed - cone shape.

[0008] Preferably, the locking gasket is made of plastic.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0010] When the utility model is in use, after the self-tapping screw is screwed into the connecting piece, the nut can squeeze the locking gasket to press against the surface of the connecting piece. At this time, multiple pointed cones can be inserted into the surface of the connecting piece. Then, by screwing the locking screw, the locking screw can move inward in the threaded hole. When the locking screw is completely screwed into the threaded hole, the pointed cone head of the locking screw can be inserted into the locking gasket, so that the nut and the locking gasket are limited and fixed. The locking gasket can improve the contact friction force with the connecting piece through the multiple pointed cones arranged thereon and cannot rotate, so that the nut will not reverse, solving the problem that the self-tapping screw is easily reversed and rotated out of the workpiece due to the shaking generated by the outside world, resulting in loosening.

[0016] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a cross self-tapping screw with an anti-slip tooth structure, including:

[0018] Nut 1, on the bottom wall of which a screw body 2 is provided. The screw body 2 is integrally formed with the nut 1. An anti-slip thread 3 is provided on the screw body 2. A cross slot 4 is opened on the top wall of the nut 1. A locking mechanism is provided on the nut 1. The locking mechanism includes a locking gasket 5. The locking gasket 5 is sleeved on the screw body 2 through a through hole opened. A plurality of pointed cones 6 are fixedly welded on a side wall of the locking gasket 5 away from the nut 1. A fixing ring 7 is provided on a side of the locking gasket 5 away from the nut 1. The fixing ring 7 is fixedly welded on the screw body 2.

[0019] A threaded hole 8 is opened on the top wall of the nut 1. The threaded hole 8 penetrates through the nut 1. A locking screw 9 is threadedly connected in the threaded hole 8. The locking screw 9 is used to limit and fix the locking gasket 5.

[0020] The bottom end of the locking screw 9 is provided in a pointed cone shape. The pointed cone shape at the bottom end enables the locking screw 9 to be inserted into the locking gasket 5 when being tightened, facilitating the limitation of the locking gasket 5.

[0021] The locking gasket 5 is made of plastic material. The locking gasket 5 made of plastic material facilitates the insertion of the locking screw 9.

[0022] Working principle: When in use, after the self-tapping screw is screwed into the connecting piece, the nut 1 can squeeze the locking gasket 5 to press against the surface of the connecting piece. At this time, a plurality of pointed cones 6 can be inserted into the surface of the connecting piece. Then, by screwing the locking screw 9, the locking screw 9 can move inward in the threaded hole 8. When the locking screw 9 is completely screwed into the threaded hole 8, the pointed cone head of the locking screw 9 can be inserted into the locking gasket 5, so that the nut 1 and the locking gasket 5 are limited and fixed. The locking gasket 5 can improve the contact friction force with the connecting piece through the plurality of pointed cones 6 provided, and cannot rotate, thereby preventing the nut 1 from reversing, and solving the problem that the self-tapping screw is easily reversed and rotated out of the workpiece due to the shaking generated by the outside, resulting in loosening.
