Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of screws, and in particular to an anti-loosening screw assembly. Background Art

[0002] In various fields, there are many occasions where screws need to be used for tightening and preventing loosening. However, general screws are likely to loosen when subjected to strong vibration. Loose screws may affect the service life of the machine, mechanical safety and personal safety. Therefore, anti-loosening screws are needed for tightening in the above occasions. The anti-loosening methods used by anti-loosening screws in the existing technology mainly include friction anti-loosening and permanent anti-loosening. Among them, friction anti-loosening uses anti-slip pads to prevent loosening. However, the anti-loosening effect of this anti-loosening method is not very ideal and cannot be adapted to occasions with high requirements for anti-loosening performance; permanent anti-loosening uses spot welding, riveting, bonding and other methods to prevent loosening. Although this anti-loosening method has a good anti-loosening effect, the screws will often be destroyed during disassembly, making the screws unable to be reused. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and to provide a reusable anti-loosening screw assembly which has a better anti-loosening effect and is easy to disassemble.

[0004] The technical solutions of the present invention are as follows:

[0005] A screw locking assembly comprises a screw and a nut, wherein the screw comprises a screw head and a screw body, the area of the screw head is larger than the area of the screw body, a triangular thread is provided on the circumference of the screw body, a trapezoidal thread or a triangular thread is provided on the circumference of the screw head, and the thread pitch of the screw head is larger than the thread pitch of the screw body, and the nut is threadedly connected to the screw head of the screw.

[0006] Furthermore, the screw head of the screw is a hexagonal head, and the nut is a hexagonal nut.

[0007] Furthermore, the threads on the peripheral side of the screw head of the screw are subjected to a smooth surface treatment.

[0008] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the nut is provided with a plurality of upper locking teeth evenly distributed around the circumference.

[0009] Furthermore, the plurality of upper locking teeth are concentrically and obliquely arranged.

[0010] Furthermore, the anti-loosening screw assembly also includes a washer, which is sleeved on the screw body of the screw and conflicts with the nut.

[0011] Furthermore, a plurality of lower locking teeth matching the upper locking teeth are evenly distributed on the top surface of the washer in a circumferential manner.

[0012] Furthermore, the washer is provided with a mounting groove adapted to the nut, and the peripheral side of the mounting groove is provided with a positioning edge that abuts against the side wall of the nut.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effect of the present invention is that: the present invention includes a screw and a nut, wherein the screw head of the screw is provided with a trapezoidal thread or a triangular thread on the circumferential side, and the nut is threadedly connected to the screw head of the screw. Through this structural design, when the screw wants to be loosened due to vibration, under the action of the nut and the threads of different pitches, and the smooth contact surface between the screw and the nut, an opposite axial force will be generated to prevent the screw from loosening, thereby achieving a good anti-loosening effect, which is very suitable for use in occasions with high requirements for anti-loosening performance. When the screw needs to be removed, it is necessary to use an inner hexagonal wrench and an outer hexagonal wrench to clamp the screw and the nut respectively and apply forces in opposite directions to separate the nut from the screw, and then take out the screw, so that the screw has a detachable function and is easy to reuse.
