In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0039] Embodiment 1:

[0040] like Figure 1-3 The anti-loosening pull rod shown comprises a tube body 1 and a pull rod assembly.

[0041] The end of the pipe body 1 is provided with a connection hole 10, and the inner circumference of the connection hole 10 is provided with an internal thread. The pipe body 1 has two ends, and each end has a connection hole 10. Of course, the connection holes 10 between the two ends can be connected to form a hollow pipe body 1. The pipe body 1 is provided with an operating hole 11 for rotating it. By using a tool to operate the operating hole 11, the pipe body 1 can be rotated to adjust the overall length of the pull rod. In this embodiment, the pipe body 1 is made of a seamless steel pipe.

[0042] The tie rod assembly includes a first tie rod assembly 2a and a second tie rod assembly 2b, and the first tie rod assembly 2a and the second tie rod assembly 2b are respectively connected to the two ends of the tube body 1. The first tie rod assembly 2a and the second tie rod assembly 2b have the same structure, and both include an end rod 20, a nut 21 and a ring body 22. Specifically:

[0043] An external thread is arranged on the outer circumferential surface of one end of the end rod 20, and a groove 204 is arranged on the outer circumferential surface of one end of the end rod 20. The groove 204 extends along the axial direction of the end rod 20. One end of the end rod 20 extends into the connecting hole 10 of the tube body 1 and is connected by a thread. Rotating the tube body 1 or the end tube 20 can lengthen or shorten the overall length of the pull rod, thereby adjusting the length of the pull rod. A bearing hole 201 for setting a bearing 200 is provided at the other end of the end rod 20. A lubrication channel 202 connected to the bearing hole 201 is also provided on the end rod 20. An oil cup 203 is arranged in the lubrication channel 202. The oil cup 203 lubricates the bearing 200 in the bearing hole 201 through the lubrication channel 202.

[0044] The nut 21 is threadedly connected to the outer peripheral surface with external threads at one end of the end rod 20. In this embodiment, the nut 21 adopts the specification of M48×2.

[0045] The ring body 22 is also sleeved on one end of the end rod 20 and is located between the tube body 1 and the nut 21. The inner ring of the ring body 22 is provided with a protrusion 220, which protrudes toward the center of the ring body 22. When the ring body 22 is sleeved on one end of the end rod 20, the protrusion 220 is located in the groove 204, that is, the ring body 22 can only slide on the end rod 20 through the protrusion 220, and the ring body 22 and the end rod 20 cannot rotate relative to each other.

[0046] A boss 222 is provided on one of the end faces of the tube body 1 and the end face of the ring body 22 facing the tube body 1, and a plurality of notches 12 are provided on the other. When the boss 222 is inserted into the notch 12, the tube body 1 and the ring body 22 are relatively fixed (cannot rotate). In this embodiment: the boss 222 is provided on the end face of the ring body 22 facing the tube body 1, and the notch 12 is provided on the end face of the tube body 1. In the figure: there are four notches 12 evenly distributed along the circumferential direction, such as Figure 4 As shown, there are two bosses 222, which are arranged opposite to each other; and the cross-section of the notch 12 and the boss 222 in the axial direction of the tube body 1 and the ring body 12 is L-shaped. Since the four bosses 222 are distributed at 90° intervals, the boss 222 of the ring body 22 can be inserted and matched with the notch 12 of the tube body 1 for each 1 / 4 turn of the tube body 1. Since the pitch of the M48 thread is 2mm, the minimum adjustment amount of the pull rod length each time is 1mm, and the maximum error with the actual required length is 0.5mm, which meets the steering accuracy required for multi-axis steering engineering vehicles.

[0047] The nut 21 and the ring body 22 can be relatively fixed. In this embodiment, the nut 21 and the ring body 22 are provided with fastening holes 210 and 221 penetrating the end faces thereof. The fastener 23 can be a bolt, wherein the fastening hole 210 of the nut 21 is a through hole, and the fastening hole 221 of the ring body 22 is a threaded hole. In the figure, the fastening holes 210 of the nut 21 are provided with 12 holes, and the fastening holes 221 of the ring body 22 are provided with 6 holes. After the nut 21 locks the ring body 22, the fastening holes 210 and 221 of the nut 21 and the ring body 22 are aligned, and the fastener 23 is passed through the fastening holes 210 and 221 to fix the nut 21 and the ring body 22, so as to ensure that the nut 21 cannot rotate relative to the ring body 22, that is, the nut 21 cannot rotate relative to the end rod 20, so as to achieve that the nut 21 does not loosen, so as to ensure that the pipe body 1 and the end rod 20 cannot rotate relative to each other, and finally achieve that the pull rod does not loosen.

[0048] The working process of this embodiment is described in detail below:

[0049] The nut 21 and the ring body 22 of the pull rod assembly at both ends are inserted into the outer circumferential surface of the external thread at one end of the end rod 21, and the end of the end rod 21 is then screwed into the connecting hole 10 of the pipe body 1, and the pipe body 1 is rotated through the operating hole 11 to adjust the length of the pull rod;

[0050] Rotate the tube body 1 until the boss 222 on the ring body 22 can correspond to the notch 12 on the tube body 1, and rotate the nut 21 to make the boss 222 of the ring body 22 abut and press against the notch 12 on the tube body 1, so that the end rod 21 and the tube body 1 no longer rotate relative to each other, and the pull rod no longer loosens.

[0051] Embodiment 2:

[0052] A multi-axle steering engineering vehicle includes a frame, a suspension assembly 3 connected to the bottom of the frame, and an anti-loosening rod. The suspension assembly 3 is located on both sides of the vehicle, and multiple groups of suspension assemblies 3 on each side are arranged in the front and rear directions. Three groups are taken as an example in the figure. The specific structure of the suspension assembly 3 is not the invention point of the present application and will not be elaborated here.

[0053] The tie rod assembly includes a first tie rod assembly 2a and a second tie rod assembly 2b. The first tie rod assembly 2a and the second tie rod assembly 2b are respectively connected to the two ends of the tube body 1. The other ends of the end rods 20 of the first tie rod assembly 2a and the second tie rod assembly 2b are respectively connected to the two adjacent suspension assemblies 3 in front and behind. Figure 5 As shown: a pull rod assembly is connected between the front suspension assembly 3 and the middle suspension assembly 3, and another pull rod assembly is connected between the middle suspension assembly 3 and the rear suspension assembly 3.

[0054] The structure of the tie rod assembly is the same as that of the first embodiment, and will not be described in detail here. The two ends of the tie rod assembly are respectively connected to the two suspension assemblies 3 of the engineering vehicle, and the anti-loosening tie rod can effectively ensure that the length of the tie rod does not change, thereby ensuring that the relative relationship of the steering angles between the various suspensions remains unchanged, thereby ensuring the reliability of the steering mechanism, reducing the sliding movement of the tires during the steering process, reducing the wear of the tires when the engineering vehicle is steering, and improving reliability and safety.

[0055] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of the utility model, and their purpose is to enable people familiar with the technology to understand the content of the utility model and implement it accordingly, and they cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the utility model.
