[0027] Preferably, the locking device includes a locking mechanism 1-3, a positioning pin 1-2, a compression spring 1-4, a locking base 2-1, etc. The locking mechanism 1-3 is fixed to the main structure 1-1 through the positioning pin 1-2, and the locking mechanism 1-3 is guided to move. The compression spring 1-4 provides downward pressure to the locking mechanism 1-3, so that the locking mechanism 1-3 is fully engaged with the locking base 2-1, thereby achieving a self-locking and anti-loosening effect.

[0028] Preferably, the movable handle 1-5 is installed in the through hole of the main structure 1-1 and can move freely in the through hole. The holes at both ends are enlarged or other stopping devices are installed to prevent the movable handle 1-5 from escaping from the through hole of the main structure 1-1.

[0031] Example 2. A self-locking anti-loosening bolt wrench, see Figure 1-Figure 3:It includes a main structure 1-1, a positioning pin 1-2, a locking mechanism 1-3, a compression spring 1-4, a movable handle 1-5, and a locking base 2-1; the positioning pin 1-2, the locking mechanism 1-3, the compression spring 1-4, and the movable handle 1-5 are installed on the main structure 1-1; the main structure 1-1 is a "T"-shaped cylindrical structure, with a through hole in the upper part for installing the movable handle 1-5, a threaded hole in the middle part for installing the positioning pin 1-2, and a threaded bottom part for connecting with the bracket base 3-1; the positioning pin 1-2 is a cylindrical structure, with a bare rod at one end and a threaded end, which is installed on the main structure 1-1, used to fix the locking mechanism 1-3 and is a lock. The fixing mechanism 1-3 provides guidance when moving up and down; the locking mechanism 1-3 is a "T"-shaped cylindrical structure with an "L"-shaped groove 1-6 in the middle for guiding the locking mechanism 1-3 when it moves, and triangular teeth are made on the lower part for engaging with the locking base 2-1; the compression spring 1-4 is used to provide initial downward pressure to prevent the locking mechanism 1-3 from bouncing up; the movable handle 1-5 is a cylindrical structure with expanded holes at both ends or other stopping devices installed to prevent the movable handle 1-5 from escaping from the through hole on the main structure 1-1; the locking base 2-1 is a cylindrical structure with triangular teeth made on the upper part for engaging with the locking mechanism 1-3, and is generally fixedly connected to the pressure plate 2-2 or other workpieces to be fastened.

[0032] The specific structure is as follows:

[0033] The locking mechanism 1-3 is fixed to the main structure 1-1 by means of the positioning pin 1-2 and the compression spring 1-4. When movement is required, the "L"-shaped groove 1-6 on the locking mechanism 1-3 provides guidance. The positioning pin 1-2 on the locking mechanism 1-3 moves into the horizontal groove of the "L"-shaped groove 1-6, so that the locking mechanism 1-3 and the locking base 2-1 are in a separated state, which is convenient for tightening or loosening operations. When the locking mechanism 1-3 moves into the vertical groove of the "L"-shaped groove 1-6, the locking mechanism 1-3 will engage with the triangular teeth on the locking base 2-1 under the action of the compression spring 1-4, thereby achieving a self-locking and anti-loosening effect; the locking base 2-1 is fixedly connected to the pressure plate or other workpieces that need to be tightened; the bracket base 3-1 is fastened by the thread at the lower part of the main structure 1-1, so that the pressure plate 2-2 is fixedly connected to the bracket base 3-1, thereby preventing the aircraft or the clamped object from moving.

[0034] In this embodiment, one set of brackets generally uses two self-locking anti-loosening bolt wrenches; one self-locking anti-loosening bolt wrench includes a main structure 1-1, a positioning pin 1-2, a locking mechanism 1-3, a compression spring 1-4, a movable handle 1-5, and a locking base 2-1; of course, the number of self-locking anti-loosening bolt wrenches can also be selected according to actual conditions; the locking base 2-1 is generally fixed to the pressure plate 2-2 by screws or welding; the movable handle 1-5 can slide freely in the through hole 1-7 on the main structure 1-1, and generally the two ends are expanded or other stopping devices are installed to prevent the movable handle 1-5 from escaping from the through hole on the main structure 1-1.

[0035] Usage process:

[0036] Tighten the self-locking anti-loosening bolt wrench: pull the locking mechanism 1-3 upward until the positioning pin 1-2 moves to the horizontal groove of the "L"-shaped groove 1-6, rotate the locking mechanism 1-3 clockwise to move the positioning pin 1-2 into the horizontal groove of the "L"-shaped groove 1-6, and tighten the self-locking anti-loosening bolt wrench through the movable handle 1-5. After the bolt wrench is tightened, rotate the locking mechanism 1-3 counterclockwise to move the positioning pin 1-2 into the vertical groove of the "L"-shaped groove 1-6, and release the locking mechanism 1-3. The locking mechanism 1-3 engages with the triangular teeth on the locking base 2-1 under the action of the compression spring 1-4, thereby having a self-locking and anti-loosening effect.

[0037] Loosen the self-locking anti-loosening bolt wrench: pull the locking mechanism 1-3 upward until the positioning pin 1-2 moves to the horizontal groove of the "L"-shaped groove 1-6, rotate the locking mechanism 1-3 clockwise to move the positioning pin 1-2 to the horizontal groove of the "L"-shaped groove 1-6, and loosen the self-locking anti-loosening bolt wrench through the movable handle 1-5.
