The combination nut B6 will drive the limit block 9 to move during the overall downward movement, and then drive the guide plate 10 to slide in the guide groove 3. During the sliding of the guide plate 10, the limit ball 11 will be driven to move. The guide plate 10 has a certain toughness and can push the limit ball 11 to be stuck in the limit hole 4. When the clamping block 7 contacts the arc block 15, the arc block 1 5 is squeezed and deformed outward to a certain extent until the block 7 is completely engaged with the slot 13, the block 7 returns to its original position and slides and engages with the bottom tooth 14 through the top tooth 12. When the combination nut A5 is loosened by vibration, it will move upward and rotate as a whole. At this time, the top tooth 12 and the block 7 can effectively weaken or even offset the impact force of the rotation of the combination nut A5, and the limiting ball 11 is used to assist in limiting the combination nut B6.
