Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fastener technology, specifically to a clip nut with a positioning structure. Background Technology

[0002] Cassette nuts are commonly used in server racks and are typically sheet metal fasteners consisting of a flexible outer shell and a square nut.

[0003] The clip nut is installed by snapping it into a square hole.

[0004] Existing technology reference:

[0005] For example, the heat sink retainer nut disclosed in patent publication number CN 205225428 U, see reference. Figure 1 As shown.

[0006] For example, a method for installing a clip-on nut is disclosed in patent application publication number CN 102310386 A, see reference. Figure 2 As shown.

[0007] The aforementioned clip nut has two clips, the width of which is approximately equal to the width of the square hole, so that the clip nut will not move after being inserted into the square hole.

[0008] However, nuts with wider locking feet are more difficult to install. So the inventor considered making the locking feet narrower, but this would lead to unstable connections. Utility Model Content

[0009] In view of the problems pointed out in the background art, this utility model proposes a snap-fit ​​nut with a positioning structure to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0010] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0011] A snap-fit ​​nut with a positioning structure includes a base plate, with forward-extending side plates on the upper and lower sides of the base plate, a first limiting portion at the end of each side plate, and second limiting portions on the left and right sides of each side plate. It also includes a nut body disposed between the two side plates. The base plate has locking feet on its left and right sides, located on the upper side of the base plate. A positioning foot is located on the rear side of the base plate, located on the lower side of the base plate.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that the locking foot has an L-shaped structure.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that the positioning foot is a straight-line structure.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that the positioning foot is perpendicular to the base plate.

[0015] The present invention is further configured such that the base plate is provided with a connecting groove corresponding to the nut body, and the positioning foot is provided on one side wall of the connecting groove.

[0016] The present invention is further configured such that the side plate is wavy and undulating.

[0017] The present invention is further provided that positioning grooves are provided on the left and right sides of the positioning foot respectively.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0019] The snap nut with positioning structure provided by this utility model has a small snap leg width, which makes it easy to insert into a square hole. The positioning foot works with two snap legs to achieve a three-leg positioning structure. The three legs are distributed in a triangle, which makes the positioning of the snap nut stable.

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] For reference as follows Figure 1-6 The present invention will be described as follows:

[0030] Example 1: A snap nut with a positioning structure includes a base plate 1, with forward-extending side plates 2 on the upper and lower sides of the base plate 1, a first limiting part 3 at the end of the side plate 2, and a second limiting part 4 on the left and right sides of the side plate 2. It also includes a nut body 5, which is disposed between the two side plates 2. The nut body 5 has a threaded hole, and the base plate 1 has a connecting groove 8 corresponding to the threaded hole.

[0031] The above describes the prior art; the following is the improved technical solution of this application:

[0032] The film 1 has rearward-extending locking feet 6 on both the left and right sides. The locking feet 6 are located on the upper side of the film 1 and have an L-shaped structure.

[0033] The base plate 1 has a positioning foot 7 on its rear side, located on the lower side of the base plate 1. The positioning foot 7 has a straight structure and is positioned along the left and right direction, perpendicular to the base plate 1. The positioning foot 7 is located on one side wall of the connecting groove 8. In use, the two retaining feet 6 enter the square hole and contact the left, right, and upper side walls of the square hole. The positioning foot 7 enters the square hole and contacts the left, right, and lower side walls of the square hole, thus fixing the retaining nut in place.

[0034] Side piece 2 is designed with a wavy, undulating shape. This technical solution can enhance the elasticity of side piece 2.

[0035] Positioning grooves 9 are provided on the left and right sides of the positioning foot 7. With this technical solution, the left and right side walls of the square hole can enter the positioning grooves 9 to form a snap-fit ​​positioning structure, which further positions and fixes the snap-fit ​​nut.

[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
