Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fasteners, in particular to a fastener retaining device. Background Art

[0002] Fasteners are devices used to fasten two or more parts together. There are many types of fasteners, including screws, nuts, washers, pins, etc. They have excellent fastening performance and can withstand large tensile and rotational forces, thereby ensuring the safe operation of mechanical equipment. In addition, fasteners also have excellent durability and reliability and can be used for a long time in various harsh working environments.

[0003] The bolt consists of a head and a screw rod, which need to be matched with a nut to fasten two parts with through holes. The bolt needs to match the size of the through hole of the part when in use. When there is a large gap between the through hole size of the part and the bolt, it is difficult to accurately install the bolt to the axis position, and it is easy to cause uneven force on the bolt and the workpiece during the subsequent tightening process.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, a fastener retaining device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a fastener retaining device, which overcomes the deficiencies of the prior art and solves the problems mentioned in the above background technology.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a fastener retaining device, comprising a bolt and a nut, wherein a flat washer 1 is sleeved on one end of the bolt away from the nut, and a flat washer 2 is sleeved on one end of the bolt close to the nut, and a retaining mechanism is arranged and installed between the flat washer 1 and the flat washer 2;

[0007] The retaining mechanism comprises a sleeve, a gasket and a support arm.

[0008] Two parts with through holes can be fastened and connected by bolts and nuts. Flat washers 1 and 2 can increase the contact area with the parts and have a barrier effect to prevent the surface of the workpiece from being damaged. The holding mechanism can be used to apply force to the washer to make the support arm bend and expand outward during the process of turning the nut to tighten the workpiece, so that the support arm can fill the cavity of the workpiece and locate the bolt position.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of the utility model, a spring washer is sleeved on the bolt at the side of the flat washer away from the nut, and the spring washer is adapted to the structural size of the bolt.

[0010] The spring washer can provide a force to prevent loosening, increase the friction between the nut and the workpiece, tighten the workpiece during vibration, and prevent loosening between the nut and the workpiece.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of the utility model, the sleeve is located above the gasket, and the sleeve and the gasket are connected by a support arm. An internal thread is formed inside the sleeve, the sleeve is threadedly connected to the bolt, and a bending portion is formed in the middle of the support arm.

[0012] The sleeve can be moved to different positions for adaptive use according to the thickness of the workpiece hole. When the bottom of the gasket ring moves upward under the action of force, the bending part can bend and expand outward. The extended support arm can support the hole of the workpiece and gradually position the bolt to the axial center of the hole during the deformation and expansion process.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0014] Two parts with through holes can be fastened and connected by bolts and nuts. Flat washers 1 and 2 can increase the contact area with the parts and have a barrier effect to prevent damage to the surface of the workpiece. The retaining mechanism can move the sleeve to different positions according to the thickness of the workpiece hole for adaptive use during the process of turning the nut to tighten the workpiece. When the bottom of the gasket moves upward under the action of force, the bending part can bend and expand outward. The extended support arm can support the hole of the workpiece and gradually position the bolt to the axial center of the hole during the deformation and expansion process.
