[0017] The utility model is now described in further detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, which only illustrate the basic structure of the utility model in a schematic manner, and therefore only show the components related to the utility model.

[0018] Please refer to Figure 1-5 A locking nut comprises a high-strength nut 4 and a double-stacked washer 3, wherein a bolt hole 41 is arranged inside the high-strength nut 4, the double-stacked washer 3 is coaxially arranged with the high-strength nut 4, the double-stacked washer 3 is arranged between a workpiece 2 and the high-strength nut 4, and the high-strength nut 4 cooperates with a high-strength bolt 1 on the outside of the workpiece 2.

[0019] Specifically, the double-stacked washer 3 includes a first washer 31 and a second washer 32. The opposite sides of the first washer 31 and the second washer 32 are respectively provided with mutually matching meshing teeth 33. The first washer 31 and the second washer 32 are engaged with each other through the meshing teeth 33. At this time, when the first washer 31 and the second washer 32 are engaged, they are locked with each other to prevent loosening.

[0020] After the double stacked washers are engaged with each other through the meshing teeth 33, they can also bear greater pressure and shear force and are not easily deformed or damaged.

[0021] In addition, the high-strength nut 4 is provided with a snap ring 42 on one side close to the second washer 32 , and the high-strength nut 4 is rotatably connected to the second washer 32 via the snap ring 42 .

[0022] That is to say, the first washer 31 is independent and cooperates with the second washer 32, and the second washer 32 cooperates with the high-strength nut 4 through the retaining ring 42. After the second washer 32 and the high-strength nut 4 cooperate, they can also rotate separately; when in use, after being combined and installed with the high-strength bolt 1, the high-strength nut 4 will squeeze the first washer and the second washer so that they are embedded in the workpiece and the high-strength nut to achieve bite, thereby further improving the anti-loosening effect.

[0023] Furthermore, ridges 34 are respectively provided on the outer sides of the first washer 31 and the second washer 32. The ridges 34 on the outer side of the first washer 31 are in contact with the workpiece 2, and the ridges 34 on the outer side of the second washer 32 are in contact with the high-strength nut 4. After being installed with the high-strength bolt during use, the continuous rotation of the high-strength nut can further increase the contact tightness between the high-strength nut 4 and the second washer 32. At the same time, the friction between the first washer and the workpiece can be increased, and the ridges on both sides can promote the tight connection to avoid loosening caused by vibration.

[0024] The novel anti-loosening nut is formed into an integrated structure by cooperating the first washer 31 with the second washer 32 and the second washer 32 with the high-strength nut 4. The washers bite to prevent loosening and the ridges on both sides also increase the connection tightness.

[0025] The design principle of the double-stacked washer 3 in this embodiment is based on the principles of friction and mechanical interlocking. This design consists of two washers stacked together, which can lock each other to prevent loosening. In addition, since the meshing teeth and ridges can withstand greater pressure and shear force, they are not easily deformed or damaged, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the equipment. When tightened, these teeth clamp the bolt or thread like a vice, and when the nut is tightened onto the bolt or screw, the two washers begin to compress under pressure, and this compression causes friction between them; ensuring that the double-layer self-locking washer can maintain its grip and prevent the fastener from loosening even in a high vibration environment or repeated use over time.

[0026] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the invention of the utility model.
