A nut is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded column. A concave groove is opened inside the nut. A threaded rod is threadedly connected to the top of the mounting seat. A placement groove is arranged inside the mounting seat. A pressing ball is arranged at the bottom of the threaded rod. Three anti-slip balls are arranged at the bottom of the pressing ball. Three spherical grooves are opened on the outer wall of the mounting seat. The three anti-slip balls are respectively arranged on one side of the spherical grooves, and part of the anti-slip balls are located inside the placement groove. An annular groove is opened on the outer wall of the mounting seat. An elastic ring is arranged inside the annular groove.

[0028] Such as Figures 1-4As shown, an embodiment of the present utility model provides a preloaded tightening torque screw, which includes a bolt head 1 and a threaded column 5. A deformation elastic sheet 2 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the bolt head 1. Four stress sheets 3 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the deformation elastic sheet 2. The four stress sheets 3 are arranged at equal circumferential distances. An installation seat 4 is fixedly penetrated inside the bolt head 1. The bottom of the installation seat 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the threaded column 5. A nut 6 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded column 5. A recessed groove 7 is formed inside the nut 6. A threaded rod 8 is threadedly connected to the top of the installation seat 4. A placement groove is provided inside the installation seat 4. An extrusion ball 10 is provided at the bottom of the threaded rod 8. Three anti-slip balls 11 are provided at the bottom of the extrusion ball 10. Three spherical grooves 12 are formed on the outer wall of the installation seat 4. The three anti-slip balls 11 are respectively arranged on one side of the spherical grooves 12, and part of the anti-slip balls 11 are located inside the placement groove. An annular groove 13 is formed on the outer wall of the installation seat 4. An elastic ring 14 is provided inside the annular groove 13. The elastic ring 14 is provided at a position near the bottom on the outer wall of the anti-slip ball 11. A hexagonal groove 9 is formed at the top of the threaded rod 8. A circular chamfer is formed at the top edge of the hexagonal groove 9. The bottom of the threaded rod 8 is frustum-shaped. The three anti-slip balls 11 are of the same size. A circular chamfer is formed at the edge of the spherical groove 12. The size of the extrusion ball 10 is the same as that of the anti-slip ball 11. The elastic ring 14 is located on one side of the spherical groove 12.

[0029] Pass the threaded post 5 through the inside of the plate body from its top. At this time, the elastic ring 14 is in its initial state, and the three anti-slip balls 11 are located in the placement groove inside the threaded rod 8. The mounting seat 4 smoothly passes through the inside of the plate body. Use the nut 6 to rotate and fix it to the bottom of the threaded post 5 from one end of the threaded post 5 until the top of the nut 6 contacts the bottom of the plate body, and further rotate the nut 6. Since the deformation elastic piece 2 has a certain deformation ability, while the distance between the nut 6 and the bolt cap 1 gradually decreases, one side of the force-receiving piece 3 closely adheres to the top of the plate body, and the position of the bolt cap 1 relative to the plate body gradually moves downward, thereby causing the deformation elastic piece 2 to deform. The nut 6 is gradually tightened and stressed, so that the deformation elastic piece 2 is completely convex to reach the standard tightening torque. By setting the deformation elastic piece 2 and the force-receiving piece 3, the preloaded tightening torque can provide a more stable and controllable tightening torque for the bolt cap 1 and the threaded post 5, ensuring that the bolt cap 1 and the threaded post 5 are not easily loosened during use, having better assembly performance and reliability, reducing failures and damages caused by loosening at the bolt cap 1 during use, and extending the service life of the equipment. Then insert a hexagonal screwdriver into the top of the hexagonal groove 9. Since a chamfer is provided at the edge of the hexagonal groove 9, the screwdriver can be smoothly and accurately inserted into the inside of the hexagonal groove 9, and then drive the threaded rod 8 to rotate, so that the threaded rod 8 gradually moves downward inside the mounting seat 4. The frustum shape at the bottom of the threaded rod 8 gradually presses the extrusion ball 10. The frustum-shaped extrusion part can distribute the force more evenly on the surface of the extruded extrusion ball 10, avoiding excessive local stress and reducing the possibility of stress concentration, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the threaded rod 8 moving in the vertical direction. During the downward movement of the extrusion ball 10, it extrudes the three anti-slip balls 11 outward. A part of the anti-slip ball 11 penetrates the spherical groove 12 and contacts the elastic ring 14. The chamfer at the edge of the spherical groove 12 prevents the anti-slip ball 11 from being worn during the movement. The three anti-slip balls 11 simultaneously press the elastic ring 14, causing the elastic ring 14 to deform and providing an opposite pressure to the anti-slip ball 11. At this time, the part of the anti-slip ball 11 exposed from the spherical groove 12 is stuck on the lower surface of the plate body. Since the outer wall of the anti-slip ball 11 contacts the lower surface of the plate body and applies a certain pressure, the friction between the anti-slip ball 11 and the plate body is relatively large, making it difficult for the anti-slip ball 11 and the mounting seat 4 to rotate relative to the plate body, thereby realizing that the bolt cap 1 is not easy to rotate relative to the plate body, thus improving the firmness of the installation of the bolt cap 1, the threaded post 5 and the nut 6, and avoiding loosening and falling off during long-term use.

[0030] For the technical solution provided by the present utility model, the threaded column 5 penetrates through the inside of the plate body from the top. At this time, the elastic ring 14 is in the initial state, and the three anti-slip balls 11 are located in the placement groove inside the threaded rod 8. The mounting seat 4 smoothly passes through the inside of the plate body. The nut 6 is rotated and fixed to the bottom of the threaded column 5 from one end of the threaded column 5 until the top of the nut 6 contacts the bottom of the plate body. Further rotating the nut 6, since the deformation elastic piece 2 has a certain deformation ability, while the distance between the nut 6 and the bolt cap 1 gradually decreases, one side of the force-receiving piece 3 closely adheres to the top of the plate body, and the position of the bolt cap 1 relative to the plate body gradually moves downward, so that the deformation elastic piece 2 deforms. The nut 6 is gradually tightened and stressed, and when the deformation elastic piece 2 is completely convex, the standard tightening torque is reached. The deformation elastic piece 2 and the force-receiving piece 3 provide a preload tightening torque. Then, a hexagon socket wrench is inserted into the top of the hexagon groove 9, and then the threaded rod 8 is driven to rotate, so that the threaded rod 8 gradually moves downward inside the mounting seat 4. The conical shape at the bottom of the threaded rod 8 gradually squeezes the extrusion ball 10. During the downward movement of the extrusion ball 10, the three anti-slip balls 11 are extruded outward. A part of the anti-slip balls 11 penetrates through the spherical ball groove 12 and contacts the elastic ring 14. The three anti-slip balls 11 simultaneously squeeze the elastic ring 14, causing the elastic ring 14 to deform and providing an opposite pressure to the anti-slip balls 11. At this time, the part of the anti-slip balls 11 exposed from the spherical ball groove 12 is stuck on the lower surface of the plate body. Since the outer wall of the anti-slip balls 11 contacts the lower surface of the plate body and exerts a certain pressure, the friction between the anti-slip balls 11 and the plate body is relatively large, and the anti-slip balls 11 and the mounting seat 4 are not likely to rotate relative to the plate body.

In order to enable the public to have a thorough understanding of the present utility model, specific details are described in detail in the above preferred embodiments of the present utility model. However, those skilled in the art can fully understand the present utility model without the description of these details.

[0032] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principle of the present utility model, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model.
