[0006] When using a self-locking nut in the technical solution, during installation, the inner nut on the inner side of the protective sleeve is connected to the top of the screw rod, and then the protective sleeve is rotated to make its socket connect with the pressure mouth. Then the staff holds the handle to insert the pressure rod at the outer end of the button fork from the socket into the pressure mouth, and then rotates the button fork to drive the inner nut and the protective sleeve to rotate synchronously. At this time, the inner nut thread is installed on the screw rod, and the top of the screw passes through the rod mouth. After the installation is completed, the inner nut fits in the fixed position, and then the button fork is removed, and the protective sleeve is manually rotated to make its positioning hole connect with the hole on the installation panel. Then the positioning rod is passed through the positioning hole and the lower end is connected into the hole to complete the connection and positioning.
[0007] Preferably, a rubber sleeve is sleeved on the outer side of the upper end of the positioning rod, and the rubber sleeve is located inside the positioning hole. The rubber sleeve generates resistance at the position where the positioning rod is connected to the positioning hole, which is convenient for assembly.
[0008] Preferably, the positions of the socket and the pressure port correspond to each other, and the pressure rod passes through the socket and is plugged into the corresponding pressure port. The socket and the pressure port are connected in series through the pressure rod.
[0009] Preferably, a limiting ring is fixed on the inner side of the protective sleeve, a limiting groove is provided on the outer side of the inner nut, and the limiting ring is located in the limiting groove. The limiting ring cooperates with the limiting groove to enable the inner nut to be rotatably installed in the protective sleeve.
[0010] Preferably, the button fork is designed to be arc-shaped, and the button fork corresponds to the center of the inner nut. The button fork is adapted to the center of the inner nut, which facilitates manual rotation.
[0011] Preferably, the protective sleeve is made of stainless steel, and the height of the protective sleeve matches the height of the inner nut. The material is rust-proof to ensure external protection performance.
[0012] Preferably, the outer side of the handle is sleeved with an anti-slip sleeve, and the length of the handle is ergonomically designed. The protective sleeve increases resistance and facilitates manual operation.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: during installation, the inner nut on the inner side of the protective sleeve is connected to the top of the screw rod, and then the protective sleeve is rotated to make its socket connect with the pressure mouth. Then the staff holds the handle to insert the pressure rod at the outer end of the button fork from the socket to the pressure mouth, and then rotates the button fork to drive the inner nut and the protective sleeve to rotate synchronously. At this time, the inner nut is threadedly installed on the screw rod, and the top of the screw passes through the rod mouth. After installation is completed, the inner nut fits in the fixed position, and then the button fork is removed, and the protective sleeve is manually rotated to make its positioning hole connect with the hole on the installation panel. Then the positioning rod is passed through the positioning hole and the lower end thread is installed in the hole to complete the connection and positioning. The device has a simple structure and is easy to operate. The internal inner nut is protected by the protective sleeve to avoid oxidation and rusting due to exposure to the air, thereby ensuring its service life. At the same time, after the protective sleeve is connected to the installation panel through the positioning rod, the protective sleeve is positioned and cannot be deflected or displaced longitudinally outward, and the inner nut threaded connection cannot be displaced longitudinally, thereby achieving multiple locking and ensuring the stability of the connection.
