Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a height adjusting device for closing the mouth of a self-locking nut, belonging to the technical field of self-locking nut mouth closing. Background Art

[0002] During the processing of self-locking nut products, it is necessary to close the mouth. Currently, on a machine tool, a closing block is used to close the mouth of the self-locking nut. Specifically, the self-locking nut is placed on a base, and the mouth-closing position of the self-locking nut is between the closing blocks. The closing blocks clamp and squeeze the self-locking nut under the action of a corresponding driving mechanism to close its mouth.

[0003] If the mouth-closing position of the self-locking nut is different, it is necessary to appropriately adjust the placement height of the self-locking nut according to requirements, so that the indentation height of the self-locking nut can meet the requirements. The existing adjustment process of the indentation height of the self-locking nut is to remove the self-locking nut product, then place a spacer on the base, and then place the self-locking nut on the spacer. Different indentation heights require different thickness spacers. The self-locking nut is frequently taken out for adjustment and then placed on the spacer. During the processing, the spacer will also be worn, and the thickness of the worn spacer will change. The adjustment process is cumbersome and difficult to control. The number of spacers required is large, and different specifications cannot be shared, and special management is also required. During the processing, the spacer on the base may also fall off, which is likely to cause poor consistency in the mouth-closing quality of the product and cannot meet the final requirements of the self-locking nut. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Aiming at the deficiencies existing in the prior art, the utility model provides a height adjusting device for closing the mouth of a self-locking nut.

[0005] The technical solution for the utility model to solve the above technical problems is as follows: A height adjusting device for closing the mouth of a self-locking nut includes a base, a locking sleeve, an adjusting bolt, and a spring. The locking sleeve is slidably arranged on the base up and down. The adjusting bolt includes a bolt head and a screw rod. The top surface of the bolt head is used to support the self-locking nut. The rod end of the screw rod passes through the locking sleeve and is threadedly connected to the base. The spring is sleeved outside the screw rod and is located between the locking sleeve and the base. It also includes an anti-rotation mechanism. The anti-rotation mechanism includes a sleeve anti-rotation structure arranged on the locking sleeve and a bolt anti-rotation structure arranged on the adjusting bolt. When adjusting, the locking sleeve moves against the elastic force of the spring, the sleeve anti-rotation structure is disengaged from the bolt anti-rotation structure, and the adjusting bolt is rotated for height adjustment. After the adjustment is in place, the locking sleeve resets, and the sleeve anti-rotation structure and the bolt anti-rotation structure interact to prevent the adjusting bolt from rotating.

[0006] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: The locking sleeve is arranged to slide up and down on the base. After the adjusting bolt is adjusted in place, the locking sleeve can act on the adjusting bolt through the anti-rotation mechanism under the action of the spring to prevent the adjusted adjusting bolt from rotating. When it is necessary to adjust the closing position of the self-locking nut, a force is applied to the locking sleeve. The locking sleeve moves downward against the elastic force of the spring, and the anti-rotation mechanism between the locking sleeve and the adjusting bolt disengages. The adjusting bolt can be rotated to adjust its height. After the adjustment is in place, the locking sleeve is released. The locking sleeve is reset under the elastic force of the spring and cooperates with the adjusting bolt through the anti-rotation mechanism to lock and prevent the adjusting bolt from rotating. The structure of the present utility model is simple, the adjustment process is convenient and fast, it can be adjusted according to the closing position of the self-locking nut, and the determined closing indentation height can be locked after the adjustment is in place, avoiding changes in height during the closing process, greatly improving the adjustment efficiency of the closing position of the self-locking nut, and meeting the requirements for the consistency of the processing quality of the self-locking nut closing.

After the adjustment is in place, the locking sleeve 2 resets, and the sleeve anti-rotation structure and the bolt anti-rotation structure interact to prevent the adjusting bolt 3 from rotating.

[0033] The anti-rotation mechanism is arranged between the upper part of the locking sleeve 2 and the bolt head of the adjusting bolt 3. The anti-rotation mechanism is located at the upper positions of the bolt head and the locking sleeve 2, satisfying the anti-rotation fit between the bolt head and the inner wall of the locking sleeve 2 during locking. At the same time, during adjustment, only a downward force needs to be applied to the locking sleeve 2. When the locking sleeve 2 moves downward, the anti-rotation mechanism can be disengaged, without interfering with the rotation of the adjusting bolt 3.

[0034] The anti-rotation mechanism includes an anti-rotation internal tooth 21 and an anti-rotation external tooth 34 that meshes with the anti-rotation internal tooth 21. The anti-rotation internal tooth 21 is arranged on the inner wall of the locking sleeve 2, and the anti-rotation external tooth 34 is arranged on the outer surface of the bolt head of the adjusting bolt 3. Through the meshing between the anti-rotation internal tooth 21 and the anti-rotation external tooth 34, the adjusted adjusting bolt 3 can be locked to prevent the adjusting bolt 3 from rotating, ensuring the height of the adjusted adjusting bolt 3, so as to meet the requirement of the consistency of the closing position of the self-locking nut 5 placed on the adjusting bolt 3.

[0035] An inner ring platform 23 is provided on the locking sleeve 2, and the upper end of the spring 4 acts on the inner ring platform 23.
