According to the fastener, due to the fact that the screw pitch of the main screw is larger than that of the auxiliary screw, the axial movement distance of the main nut rotating by one circle is larger than that of the auxiliary nut rotating by one circle. Therefore, when the nut is vibrated, the main nut extrudes the auxiliary nut in the axial direction, the friction force between the auxiliary nut and the auxiliary screw is increased, and the auxiliary nut cannot rotate. And when the auxiliary nut cannot rotate, the movement of the main nut is blocked along the axial direction, so that the main nut cannot fall off or loosen.

[0021] The outer side mentioned in the present invention refers to the auxiliary nut being located in the disassembly direction of the main nut, that is, blocking the disassembly direction of the main nut.

[0022] In the fastener of the present invention, since the pitch of the main screw is greater than the pitch of the secondary screw, the axial movement distance of the main nut when it rotates one circle is greater than the axial movement distance when the secondary nut rotates one circle. Therefore, when subjected to vibration, the main nut squeezes the secondary nut axially, increasing the friction between the secondary nut and the secondary screw, and the secondary nut cannot rotate. When the secondary nut cannot rotate, the movement of the main nut is hindered in the axial direction, so the main nut will not fall off or loosen. In the present invention, since the main nut presses against the secondary nut in the axial direction, the friction between the secondary nut and the secondary screw is increased, although the main nut and the secondary nut have friction in the circumferential direction when they are in contact, the friction in the circumferential direction is not enough to rotate the secondary nut. A spacer is provided between the main nut and the secondary nut, and the end faces of the main nut and the secondary nut are not in direct contact, which reduces the friction in the circumferential direction transmitted from the main nut to the secondary nut. When the number of spacers is multiple, the friction in the circumferential direction transmitted from the main nut to the secondary nut can be further reduced. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0042] Example 5

[0043] The fastener 100 includes a screw 110, a main nut 120 and a secondary nut 130. The screw 110 includes a main screw 111 and a secondary screw 112, wherein the main screw 111 is provided with a first thread 113, and the secondary screw 112 is provided with a second thread 114. The pitch of the first thread 113 is greater than the pitch of the second thread 114.

[0044] According to the structure of Example 1, the test data of the fasteners at different pitches and different diameters are shown in the following table, where the thread pitch in the table below is the pitch. In the row of the same serial number, the fasteners with two thread pitch values ​​are arranged according to the structure of Example 1, where the larger value is the first thread pitch and the smaller value is the second thread pitch. The thread pitch with only one value is a conventional fastener with no change in pitch. M16-18 means the main screw diameter is M18 and the secondary screw diameter is M16.

[0045]

[0046]

[0047]

[0048] It can be seen from the above table that, compared with the fasteners in the prior art, the loosening failure value of the fasteners in the present invention is significantly improved, and even when the torque is significantly increased, the nut does not loosen, the connection between the nut and the bolt is more stable, and it is safer to use.

[0049] In the fastener of the present invention, since the pitch of the main screw is greater than the pitch of the secondary screw, the axial movement distance of the main nut when it rotates one circle is greater than the axial movement distance when the secondary nut rotates one circle. Therefore, when subjected to vibration, the main nut squeezes the secondary nut axially, increasing the friction between the secondary nut and the secondary screw, and the secondary nut cannot rotate. When the secondary nut cannot rotate, the movement of the main nut is hindered in the axial direction, so the main nut will not fall off or loosen. In the present invention, since the main nut presses against the secondary nut in the axial direction, the friction between the secondary nut and the secondary screw is increased, although the main nut and the secondary nut have friction in the circumferential direction when they are in contact, the friction in the circumferential direction is not enough to rotate the secondary nut. A spacer is provided between the main nut and the secondary nut, and the end faces of the main nut and the secondary nut are not in direct contact, which reduces the friction in the circumferential direction transmitted from the main nut to the secondary nut. When the number of spacers is multiple, the friction in the circumferential direction transmitted from the main nut to the secondary nut can be further reduced.

[0050] The embodiments of the present invention are only used to illustrate the present invention and do not constitute a limitation on the scope of the claims. Other substantially equivalent substitutes that can be thought of by those skilled in the art are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
