It is common for screws to loosen due to vibration during the use of the machinery. The size of the static locking force after the screw is tightened is an important prerequisite indicator for determining the difficulty of screw loosening. The locking force of conventional screws can be easily detected using a digital torque wrench, but it is difficult to detect the locking force of unconventional threaded connection workpieces such as the two cylindrical workpieces listed in this article after tightening through threaded connections. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and to provide a locking force detection device for a disc screw and a method for using the same, which has a compact structure and is convenient and quick to operate.

The main body has an inner cavity with a side opening, a threaded hole is provided at one end of the main body, and a clearance hole is provided at the other end, the threaded hole and the clearance hole are coaxial and communicated with the inner cavity of the main body, and the clearance hole is used for installing a nut of a disc screw; The pressing piece is U-shaped and inserted into the inner cavity of the main body from the side opening. The pressing piece is used to clamp with the disc nut through the slot. In the clamping state, the two ends of the pressing piece are respectively in contact with the end surface of the inner cavity of the main body and the back of the positioning disc of the disc nut. One end of the connecting rod is a screw rod, and the screw rod end of the connecting rod cooperates with the threaded hole of the main body. The screw rod end of the connecting rod is used to apply pressure to the nut of the disc screw to axially compress the disc screw. In the compressed state, the clamping force of the connecting rod on the disc screw is greater than the threaded connection locking force of the workpiece to be measured. The other end of the connecting rod is a wrench twisting end, and the wrench twisting end is provided with a square countersunk hole, and the square countersunk hole is used to cooperate with the external square interface head of the digital torque wrench.

The pressing force of the connecting rod on the disc screw is greater than the threaded connection locking force of the workpiece being measured. Under the action of the pressing force, the connecting rod and the disc screw can rotate synchronously, while the disc nut, the pressing piece, and the main body remain stationary. During testing, insert the external square interface head of the digital torque wrench into the square countersunk hole of the connecting rod, adjust the force measuring direction of the torque wrench to be consistent with the direction in which the disc screw is screwed out, turn the torque wrench, and the force when the disc screw is screwed out is the locking force of the disc screw.
