TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of fasteners, in particular to a nut assembly for preventing loosening and disassembly and a packaging method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The anti-loosening and anti-disassembly nut, also known as "anti-theft nut" (hereinafter referred to as "nut"), is one of the more mature fasteners in the prior art (for reference, see the anti-theft nut disclosed in the authorized announcement No. CN201818623U). The general structure of the nut is that an anti-theft groove (also known as anti-disassembly groove, hereinafter the same) is arranged on the inner wall of the nut, and an anti-theft piece (such as a steel ball, hereinafter the same) is arranged in the anti-theft groove. Since the depth of the anti-theft groove increases in the thread direction, when the nut and bolt are assembled and have signs of loosening, the anti-theft piece moves from the deep end of the anti-theft groove to the shallow end of the anti-theft groove, thereby blocking the bolt from being unscrewed, achieving the purpose of preventing loosening and disassembly.
[0003] At present, in the last step of producing the anti-theft nut, the anti-theft piece needs to be put into the anti-theft groove of the nut, and a sleeve is added to prevent the anti-theft piece from falling off, thereby completing the production of the anti-theft nut, so as to facilitate subsequent packaging, warehousing and sales. For example, the applicant applied for a patent No. ZL202010068749.5 on January 21, 2020, an anti-theft nut automatic assembly production line. In this invention, the applicant successfully put the anti-theft piece into the nut, and achieved the purpose of preventing the anti-theft piece from falling off during warehousing and sales. However, it is found in actual production that, since the nut itself needs to be tapped, slotted and processed, it is difficult to ensure that the process is carried out in a dust-free workshop, which leads to the phenomenon that impurities are adsorbed on the inner thread of the nut. During the assembly of the sleeve and the nut, the impurities on the inner thread will scratch the nut due to the relative movement between the sleeve and the nut (not only that, the impurities will also affect the smooth assembly of the nut and the bolt during the actual assembly and use of the nut and the bolt). Therefore, the inner ring of the nut needs to be cleaned before the sleeve and the nut are assembled, so that the enterprise needs to specially increase a cleaning production line for the nut to ensure the qualified rate of the product and increase the economic burden of the enterprise.
[0004] In addition, when the nut is sold, it is generally sold with a matching bolt. Since the structure of the bolt is different from that of the nut, the existing nut and bolt are sold in separate packages (packaged separately), that is, since the bolt has an external thread, a protective mesh sleeve needs to be sleeved on the bolt during packaging to avoid damaging the external thread of the bolt during transportation, movement and handling. However, the bolt also has the same problem as the nut during production, that is, the bolt also needs to be cleaned before packaging. Since the structure of the bolt is different from that of the nut, the cleaning requirements of the two are different, so it is generally difficult to use the same cleaning equipment as the nut.
[0005] Third, when selling bolts, because the external thread of the bolt is located on the outer wall of the bolt, customers are usually concerned that the thread will be damaged due to bumps and the like, and therefore usually check the thread of the bolt when purchasing (because the thread of the nut is arranged on the inner ring of the nut, it is generally not damaged), and in order to ensure the protection of the bolt by the net cover (hereinafter referred to as "net cover"), the net cover is usually fixed on the bolt by means such as adhesion, and the adhesion can be easily removed, so that a balance is reached between protecting the bolt and facilitating inspection, but the adhesion has the disadvantage of being disposable, and after the net cover is removed, the net cover loses the adhesion and is easily detached from the bolt, so that the bolt cannot be more stably protected.
[0006] In view of the above, it is necessary to make necessary improvements to solve the above technical problems. SUMMARY

When assembled, the nut and the bolt have a gap, which facilitates the discharge of impurities on the nut. When the nut is placed, the impact caused by the falling of the nut can be avoided to cause wear on the surface of the bolt or the nut.
[0111] The embodiment provides a packaging method of a nut assembly, comprising the following steps:
[0112] S1: preparing a protection body with an elastic support, and sequentially placing a bolt, a nut and a guide in a protection cavity, placing the bolt first, inserting the stud of the bolt into the center cavity, then placing the nut, and then placing the guide in the protection body;
[0113] S2: taking two anti-theft steel balls (the nut of the embodiment has two anti-theft grooves), and placing the anti-theft steel columns in the respective guide cavities of the guide body.
[0114] S3: align the elastic end piece with the other end of the protection body, and install the positioning ring block of the elastic end piece on the protection body through the clamping part;
[0115] In step S3, the positioning ring block is positioned by the exhaust port and the inner tube of the guide, and after the installation of the elastic end piece is completed, the inner tube is inserted into the second folding cavity, the pressing block is pressed and the anti-theft steel ball in the guide enters the anti-theft groove of the nut, at the same time, the bolt extrudes the elastic support and is exposed from the end of the protection body, and the packaging is completed, and the bolt is checked.
[0116] In this embodiment: in step S3, when the pressing block of the elastic end piece is pressed, the air inlet hole is covered by the pressing device, the gas in the second folding cavity is first extruded from the air guide cavity, and the nut is cleaned, then the pressing block contacts the guide and the sleeve is clamped into the nut;
[0117] In step S3, when the elastic support is extruded, the gas in the first folding cavity is sprayed out, and the bolt gradually exposed from the central cavity is cleaned;
[0118] In step S3, when the pressing block loses pressing, the first folding body and the second folding body reset; when the first folding body resets, the air return one-way valve sucks air, and the impurities on the surface of the bolt are guided into the collection area; when the second folding body resets, the positioning column resets, the limiting edge rises and causes the each blanking port to be re-displaced
[0119] Reference Figures 1-9 The principle and advantages of the embodiment are:
[0120] 1. Cleaning of the inner ring wall of the nut during assembly That is: during assembly, first, the elastic support is installed on the protection body, then the bolt and the nut are sequentially placed into the protection cavity, then the positioning rib of the annular stress part and the positioning groove are matched and aligned and placed into the guide to the protection cavity, finally, the elastic end piece is installed at the cavity opening of the protection cavity, and the assembly is completed.
[0121] After the preliminary assembly is completed, the pressing block is pressed (wearing labor gloves when pressing manually), when pressing, the air inlet hole on the pressing block is closed, and the gas in the second folding cavity is extruded out, the gas in the second folding cavity enters the sleeve through the air guide cavity of the inner tube, and is sprayed out from the air outlet of the sleeve, and the inner ring wall of the nut is cleaned.
[0122] When the pressing block contacts the tube head on the inner tube in the second folding cavity, the inner tube descends as a whole, causing the plug sleeve to enter the nut until the discharge port aligns with the anti-theft groove of the nut. Then, the pressing block continues to descend and, after abutting against the annular force-bearing part through the positioning pin, drives the outer tube to descend (the tube head is also pressed synchronously), thereby aligning the discharge ports on the annular stop edge and the limit stop edge with each other, so that the anti-theft steel ball enters the anti-theft groove through the discharge port.
[0123] When the pressing block continues to be pressed, the tube head moves to its limit position and drives the bolt down through the guide, squeezing the first fold body, so that the bolt is gradually exposed from the central cavity (that is, one end of the protective cavity). During this process, the gas in the first fold cavity is squeezed out and the stud part of the bolt is cleaned. When the stud of the bolt is exposed, it can be inspected. After the inspection is completed, the pressing block is released.
[0124] 2. After assembly, when the first fold body is reset, impurities in the protective cavity can be guided to the collection area: that is, when the first fold body is reset, the gas in the collection area is drawn into the first fold cavity by the return gas check valve. At this time, the impurities located on the second annular block (the impurities cleaned off the nut) are drawn into the collection area from the notch and adsorbed on the cotton (which plays the role of filtering impurities. In other embodiments, it can also be replaced by a filter screen structure. Compared with the filter screen, cotton also has the advantage of making impurities "stick" to the cotton). When transporting or handling the nut assembly, it is prevented that impurities will return to the nut.
[0125] In summary, the protective structure of this embodiment can provide all-round protection for nuts and bolts, and can clean nuts and bolts during assembly. Furthermore, it facilitates the inspection of bolt studs during the sale process.
[0126] It is worth mentioning that, in order to reduce the production pressure on enterprises, the production of protective structures can be outsourced to other processing enterprises, while the bolt and nut manufacturers can be responsible for purchasing protective structures. This not only solves the problem of high production pressure on enterprises, but also drives the development of upstream enterprises. Furthermore, the processing enterprises of protective structures can recycle the protective structures to achieve resource reuse.
