[0019] The following is a further detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that the description of the embodiments of the present invention herein is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention.
[0020] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the structure of the nut seat for sheet metal connection provided by the utility model. The nut seat for sheet metal connection includes a main body 10, an insertion end 20 arranged on the main body 10, four elastic parts 30 arranged on the main body 10, and a head 40 arranged on the elastic part 30. It can be imagined that the nut seat for sheet metal connection also includes some other functional modules such as fastening screws, sheet metal parts, etc., which are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described one by one here.
[0021] The main body 10 is a rectangular columnar structure as a whole, and includes a socket 11 arranged at the axis of the main body 10 , four avoidance grooves 12 arranged between the main body 10 and the elastic part 30 , and four abutment blocks 13 arranged between the main body 10 and the head 40 .
[0022] The insertion hole 11 is arranged along the length direction of the main body 10 and penetrates the main body 10 from the axis of the main body 10, and an internal thread is arranged on the inner wall of the insertion hole 11 to facilitate the insertion and tightening of the fastening screw into the insertion hole 11. The opening of the insertion hole 11 near the head 40 is chamfered to facilitate the alignment of the fastening screw.
[0023] The avoidance groove 12 is arranged on the main body 10 and is located between the elastic part 30 and the main body 10. The direction of the groove is toward the elastic part 30, so as to avoid when the elastic part 39 is inserted into the reserved hole of the sheet metal and deformed toward the main body 10, thereby facilitating the deformation of the elastic part 30.
[0024] The abutting block 13 is disposed on the main body 10 and is located on the top surface of the main body 10 facing the head 40. The cross section of the abutting block 13 is a right triangle, and its two right-angled sides are respectively the top surface of the main body 10 and the bottom of the avoidance groove 12, and the corner away from the main body 10 faces the connection between the elastic part 30 and the head 40. It can be imagined that when the two sheet metal parts are respectively located on the two side sheet metal parts of the head 40 and are tightened under the action of the fastening screws, the head 40 will overcome the elastic effect of the plastic part and approach the main body 10. When it approaches a certain distance, when the fastening screws generate a torque on the head 40 that is greater than the elastic force of the elastic part 30, the head 40 will rotate in the circumferential direction relative to the main body 10. If the elastic part is in this torsion state for a long time, it is easy to cause plastic fatigue of the elastic part 30, weaken the elasticity, and reduce the service life of the product. Therefore, by providing the abutting block 13, when the head 40 approaches the main body 10, it abuts against the connection between the elastic part 30 and the head 40, which effectively prevents the head 40 from rotating relative to the main body 10 and ensures the service life of the product.
[0025] The insertion end 20 is located at the end of the main body 10 along the length direction, and a plurality of guide surfaces 21 are provided at the free end to facilitate the insertion of the nut seat into the reserved hole of the sheet metal. At the same time, one or more sides of the insertion end 20 may be provided with an anti-mistake bevel 22, so that the nut seat can only be inserted into the sheet metal along the correct direction. For example, in this embodiment, an anti-mistake bevel 22 is provided, which is something that can be thought of by those skilled in the art, and is not the main content of the utility model, so it is not specifically limited here.
[0026] The elastic parts 30 are respectively located on four adjacent side surfaces of the main body 10, and all protrude in a direction away from the axis of the main body 10, and are centrally symmetrical with the axis of the main body 10 as the axis of symmetry, and extend in the length direction of the main body 10. Each of the elastic parts 30 is provided with a plurality of tooth-shaped steps 31, and a reinforcing block 32 located at the connection between the elastic part 30 and the head 40.
[0027] The toothed step 31 is located on the side of the elastic part 31 away from the avoidance groove 12, and includes a plurality of guide surfaces 311 and a plurality of step surfaces 312. The guide surface 311 is an inclined surface facing the insertion direction of the insertion end 20, so as to play a guiding role when inserted into the sheet metal. The step surface 312 is perpendicular to the deformation direction of the elastic part 30, so as to fit with the edge of the sheet metal after being inserted into the sheet metal to achieve snap-fit.
[0028] The reinforcing block 32 is arranged at the connection between the elastic part 30 and the head 40, and protrudes in a direction away from the axis of the main body 10, so as to protrude at the four corners of the rectangular structure formed by the elastic part 30 and the main body 10, thereby reinforcing the structural strength of the elastic part 30 while preventing the nut seat from rotating in the circumferential direction relative to the sheet metal after being inserted into the sheet metal.
[0029] The head 40 is a rectangular plate-shaped structure, connected to the four elastic parts 30, and arranged in parallel with the main body 10, and located at the other end of the main body 10 away from the insertion end 20. The head 40 includes at least one pair of abutment parts 41 located on both sides of the head 40, and an avoidance hole 42 arranged at the center of the head 40.
[0030] The abutment portion 41 is arranged on two opposite sides of the head 40, and is a clamping edge extending from the connection between the head 40 and the elastic portion 30 toward a point away from the center of the circle. As in the present embodiment, the abutment portion is arranged on both sides of the short sides of the head 40, so that after the nut seat is inserted into the sheet metal, the abutment portion 41 abuts against the edge of the insertion hole to fix the nut seat.
[0031] The avoidance hole 42 is a circular through hole arranged at the center of the head 40, and coincides with the center of the circle of the insertion hole 11, and the diameter of the avoidance hole 42 is larger than the insertion hole 11, so that the fastening screw can be inserted into the insertion hole 11 through the avoidance hole 42 for tightening. The avoidance hole 42 is provided with a chamfer on the hole edge on one side away from the head 40, so as to play a guiding role when the fastening screw is inserted.
[0032] Compared with the prior art, the nut seat for sheet metal connection provided by the utility model is provided with the main body 10 and the head 40. After the main body 10 is inserted into the first sheet metal part, the second sheet metal part is fastened with a fastening screw. The two sheet metal parts are respectively located on both sides of the head 40, and are reliably connected together under the elastic buckle of the elastic part 30 and the threaded tightening action of the fastening screw. And by providing the toothed step 31 and the avoidance groove 12, it is convenient to shrink inward and deform when the sheet metal part is inserted. At the same time, multiple steps are provided, which is suitable for sheet metal jacks of different sizes, which helps to improve the applicability of the product. Finally, by providing the abutment block 13 and the reinforcement block 32, it is effectively prevented that the torque generated during the tightening of the fastening screw will cause displacement, distortion and other adverse effects on the product position and the elastic part 30, which is conducive to improving the service life of the product.
[0033] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modification, equivalent substitution or improvement within the spirit of the present invention are included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
