[0029] See also Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present embodiment provides a wire thread insert with high connection strength, which includes an external threaded portion 11 and an internal threaded portion 12, the external threaded portion 11 is configured to be threadedly connected to the bottom hole 2, the internal threaded portion 12 forms a standard internal threaded hole 13 for threading the fastener 3, and the radial cross-sectional area of ​​each tooth of the external thread of the external threaded portion 11 is larger than the radial cross-sectional area of ​​each tooth of the corresponding internal threaded portion 12, so that the binding force between the external threaded portion 11 and the bottom hole 2 is greater than the binding force between the internal threaded portion 12 and the fastener 3.

[0030] It can be seen that the radial cross-sectional area of ​​the external threaded portion 11 is greater than the radial cross-sectional area of ​​the internal threaded portion 12, which increases the connection area between the external threaded portion 11 and the thread of the bottom hole 2 and increases the radial pressure of the external threaded portion 11 on the thread of the bottom hole 2, thereby having the advantage of improving the connection strength between the external threaded portion 11 and the bottom hole 2.

[0031] Preferably, the size of the internal threaded hole 13 is M6, and the size of the bottom hole 2 is M8.

[0032] As an embodiment, the contact area between each external thread of the external threaded portion 11 and each internal thread of the corresponding bottom hole is S1, and the contact area between each internal thread of the internal threaded portion 12 and each external thread of the fastener is S2, wherein S1:S2=1.5~3.

[0033] Preferably, the contact area between each external thread of the external threaded portion 11 and each internal thread of the corresponding bottom hole 2 is twice the contact area between the internal threaded portion 12 and the fastener 3, thereby improving the connection strength between the wire thread sleeve 1 and the bottom hole 2 and improving the connection quality.

[0035] It can be seen that the second connecting surface 112 and the third connecting surface 113 are symmetrically arranged so that when the external threaded portion 11 is connected to the bottom hole 2, the second connecting surface 112 and the third connecting surface 113 exert the same pressure on the inner wall of the bottom hole 2, thereby avoiding deformation of the thread of the bottom hole 2 due to uneven force.

[0036] As an implementation manner, the first connecting surface 111 extends from a starting end to a terminating end along a spiral rotation path of the wire thread insert 1 .

[0037] It can be seen that when the first connecting surface 111 is connected to the corresponding inner wall in the bottom hole 2 , the external threaded portion 11 can be limited to avoid problems such as thread slippage or tilted installation, thereby extending the service life of the bottom hole 2 .

[0038] As an implementation manner, the second connection surface 112 and the third connection surface 113 are both curved in an arc shape.

[0039] It can be seen that by setting the second connection surface 112 and the third connection surface 113 in an arc shape, the pressure of the external thread portion 11 on the inner wall of the bottom hole 2 can be increased, which has the advantage of improving the connection strength between the wire thread sleeve 1 and the bottom hole 2.

[0040] As an embodiment, the internal threaded portion 12 includes a fourth connecting surface 121, a fifth connecting surface 122 and a sixth connecting surface 123, the fourth connecting surface 121 is vertically arranged, the fifth connecting surface 122 and the sixth connecting surface 123 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the fourth connecting surface 121, and the first end of the fifth connecting surface 122 and the first end of the sixth connecting surface 123 are respectively connected to the two ends of the fourth connecting surface 121 in the vertical direction.

[0041] It can be seen that the fifth connecting surface 122 and the sixth connecting surface 123 are symmetrically arranged, so that when the external threaded portion 11 is connected to the fastener 3, the threads on the fastener 3 exert consistent pressure on the fifth connecting surface 122 and the sixth connecting surface 123, thereby avoiding deformation of the threads of the internal threaded hole 13 due to uneven force.

[0042] As an implementation manner, the fourth connecting surface 121 extends from the starting end to the ending end along the spiral rotation path of the wire thread insert 1 .

[0043] It can be seen that when the fourth connecting surface 121 is connected to the corresponding connecting surface on the fastener 3, the fastener 3 can be limited to avoid problems such as thread slippage or tilted installation, thereby extending the service life of the wire thread insert 1.

[0044] As an implementation mode, a mounting handle 5 is provided at the tail end of the wire screw sleeve, and a breaking groove 6 is provided at the connection between the mounting handle 5 and the wire screw sleeve 1 .

[0045] It can be seen that the tail end of the wire thread sleeve 1 is provided with a mounting handle 5, which is convenient for installing a wrench connection, and the provision of the breaking groove 6 facilitates the removal of the mounting handle 5, which has the effect of improving the installation efficiency.
