Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of nuts, in particular to an improved pressure riveted nut. Background Art
[0002] Compression rivet nuts, also known as rivet nuts and self-fastening nuts, are a type of nut used on thin plates or sheet metals. They are round in shape and have embossed teeth and guide grooves on one end. The principle is to press the embossed teeth into the preset holes of the sheet metal. Generally speaking, the aperture of the preset hole is slightly smaller than the embossed teeth of the rivet nut. The pressure causes the teeth of the rivet nut to squeeze into the plate, causing plastic deformation around the preset hole, and the deformed object is squeezed into the groove, thereby producing a locking effect.

The self-clinching nut can well ensure the stability after installation during riveting, and is not easy to shake. However, the patent has the following shortcomings: 1. When the self-clinching nut is stored for a long time, dust in the air adheres to the surface of the self-clinching nut, and dust is easily accumulated in the tooth groove of the embossed teeth, resulting in the embossed teeth affecting the extrusion of the sheet metal, thereby causing the self-clinching nut and the sheet metal to be unstable; 2. After the self-clinching nut is used, it is difficult to remove the self-clinching nut from the sheet metal and cannot be reused. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0021] See also Figure 1-3 The utility model provides a technical solution: an improved self-clinching nut, comprising a nut body 1, an annular boss 3 fixedly connected to the upper end of the nut body 1, and embossed teeth 2 arranged on the upper surface of the nut body 1 and distributed in a ring array, a groove 11 is provided at the side end of the nut body 1, and the groove 11 is rotatably connected to a rotating plate 7 through a rotating shaft 8, and a protective cover 4 is connected to the upper end of the nut body 1. The nut body 1 and the protective cover 4 are both cylindrical and have the same diameter. The protective cover 4 is provided to protect the embossed teeth of the self-clinching nut, and effectively prevents dust in the air from contacting the embossed teeth 2 when the self-clinching nut is stored. The rotating plate 7 allows the operator to easily lift the self-clinching nut, and when the self-clinching nut is not needed, the self-clinching nut can be removed from the sheet metal without other tools.
[0022] The upper surface of the nut body 1 is provided with a plurality of equidistant insertion holes 6 along the circumferential direction, and the lower end of the protective cover 4 is fixedly connected with a plug-in column 5 matching the plug-in hole 6 at a position corresponding to the plug-in hole 6. Through the matching of the plug-in column 5 and the plug-in hole 6, the protective cover 4 can be fixed on the rivet nut, with a simple structure and convenient operation.
[0023] A sealing strip 10 is disposed at the lower end of the protective cover 4, and an annular groove 12 is provided on the upper surface of the nut body 1 at a position corresponding to the sealing strip 10, and the sealing strip 10 can be inserted into the annular groove 12. The sealing strip 10 plays a sealing and protective role, thereby preventing water vapor in the air from contacting the self-clinching nut and increasing the storage time of the self-clinching nut.
[0024] The rotating plate 7 is arc-shaped, and the curvature of the rotating plate 7 matches the curvature of the nut body 1. A magnetic strip 9 is provided on the inner side of the rotating plate 7. The magnetic strip 9 is provided to make the rotating plate close to the nut body 1, thereby preventing the rotating plate 7 from rotating at will and increasing the integrity of the rivet nut.
[0025] The rotating plates 7 are symmetrically arranged with two of them along the axis of the nut body 1. The symmetrical arrangement of the two rotating plates 7 enables the operator to exert force better, facilitates the operator to remove the rivet nut, and increases practicality.
[0026] Working principle: When the nut body 1 needs to be stored for a long time, the protective cover 4 is installed on the nut body 1 through the cooperation of the plug-in column 5 and the socket 6, which effectively prevents dust and water vapor in the air from contacting the embossed teeth 22, and prolongs the storage time of the rivet nut. When the rivet nut needs to be used, the protective cover 4 is removed, and the rivet nut can be nailed into the prefabricated hole of the sheet metal. When the operator needs to take the rivet nut out of the prefabricated hole, the two rotating plates 7 connected to the side wall of the nut body 1 are rotated out, and the rivet nut can be separated from the sheet metal by pulling the rotating plate 7. After separation, the rotating plate 7 is put close to the nut body 1 again, and the magnetic strip 9 set on the inner side of the rotating plate 7 fixes the rotating plate 7 to prevent the rotating plate 7 from rotating at will, thereby increasing the integrity of the rivet nut. This patent solves the problem that dust in the air is easy to adhere to the tooth grooves of the embossed teeth 2, and at the same time solves the problem that the rivet nut cannot be easily removed and cannot be reused.
