Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of press riveting nuts, and specifically, to a lock washer press riveting nut. Background Art

[0002] The press riveting nut, also known as a riveting nut and a self-locking nut, is a nut applied to thin plates or sheet metals. It has a circular shape and one end is provided with knurled teeth and a guiding groove. Its principle is that the knurled teeth are pressed into the pre-set hole positions of the sheet metal. Generally, the diameter of the pre-set hole is slightly smaller than the knurled teeth of the press riveting nut. Through pressure, the knurled teeth of the press riveting nut are squeezed into the plate, causing plastic deformation around the pre-set hole. The deformed material is squeezed into the guiding groove, thus achieving a locking effect.

[0003] In order to cooperate with the use of other components, threads are usually provided inside the press riveting nut. After long-term use, the threaded connection may become loose. The loosening of the threads is mainly due to the existence of a lateral gap when the threads are engaged. When there is vibration, the basic element of the thread, the "lead angle of the thread", becomes the "loosening angle of the thread". At the initial stage of use, the existing press riveting nut can ensure a good locking effect. However, under the influence of a long-term vibration environment, the existing press riveting nut is prone to loosening, resulting in the nut becoming loose axially, leading to mechanical failures and increasing the consumption of nuts and the time cost of maintenance personnel.
