[0028] Example
[0029] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the high-temperature resistant anti-loosening bolt assembly for engine hoods proposed in this utility model includes: a bolt 1, the bolt 1 having a hollow interior, and a first guide groove 2 and a second guide groove 3 formed on the outer wall of the bolt 1; a rotating groove 4 formed on the inner wall of the bolt 1, with a rotating ring 5 slidably disposed inside the rotating groove 4 to enable stable rotation of the rotating ring 5; a connecting rod 6 fixedly sleeved on the inner wall of the rotating ring 5, with one end of the connecting rod 6 being threaded; a rotating block 7 fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 6 to facilitate rotation of the connecting rod 6; and a guide rod 8 fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rod 6, with one end of the guide rod 8 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bolt 1. This facilitates the stable rotation of the connecting rod 6; a gasket assembly 9 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the bolt 1 for limiting the position, and a nut 10 is provided on one side of the gasket assembly 9. The nut 10 is threadedly sleeved with the bolt 1, which can stably fix the engine cover; a limiting assembly 11 is movably sleeved on the outer wall of the guide rod 8 for positioning the nut 10, which can prevent the nut 10 from vibrating and loosening. A first spring 12 is provided on one side of the limiting assembly 11. One end of the first spring 12 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bolt 1, and the other end of the first spring 12 is fixedly connected to the limiting assembly 11, which facilitates pushing the limiting assembly 11 to press tightly against one side of the nut 10 and stably limit its position.
[0030] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the gasket assembly 9 includes a gasket 91, which is fixedly sleeved with the bolt 1. A plurality of through grooves 92 are provided on one side of the gasket 91. A collar 93 is slidably disposed inside the gasket 91. A plurality of contact blocks 94 are fixedly disposed on the bottom surface of the collar 93. The contact blocks 94 are slidably connected to the through grooves 92, which allows the contact blocks 94 to move in a fixed manner. A first guide block 95 is fixedly disposed on the inner ring surface of the collar 93. The first guide block 95 is slidably connected to the first guide groove 2. A threaded collar 96 is fixedly connected to one end of the first guide block 95. The threaded collar 96 is threadedly sleeved with the connecting rod 6, which facilitates the simultaneous movement of the plurality of contact blocks 94.
[0031] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the limiting component 11 includes a sliding collar 111 that is movably sleeved on the outer wall of the guide rod 8, enabling the sliding collar 111 to move stably. The side wall of the sliding collar 111 is provided with a mounting groove 112, and multiple mounting grooves 112 are provided. A second spring 113 is provided inside the mounting groove 112. One end of the second spring 113 is fixedly connected to the sliding collar 111, and the other end of the second spring 113 is fixedly connected to a sliding block 114, which can push the sliding block 114 to move stably. The sliding block 114 is slidably connected to the second guide groove 3, which can guide the sliding block 114. One end of the sliding block 114 is fixedly connected to a limiting block 115, and one end of the limiting block 115 is set with an inclined surface.
[0032] Furthermore, the nut 10 has slots 13 on both sides, and the slots 13 are located on the inner annular side of the nut 10.
[0033] Secondly, a sliding groove 14 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting groove 112, and a slider 15 is slidably arranged inside the sliding groove 14. The slider 15 is fixedly connected to the sliding block 114 and can guide the sliding block 114 so that the sliding block 114 can move stably.
[0034] Furthermore, a plurality of locking blocks 16 are fixedly provided on one side of the limiting block 115, which can be stably engaged with the locking slot 13 to position the nut 10 and prevent it from becoming loose.
[0035] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: Rotating the rotating block 7 according to the installation and use tools, the rotating block 7 drives the connecting rod 6 to rotate, and the connecting rod 6 drives the rotating ring 5 to rotate in the rotating groove 4. At the same time, the connecting rod 6 is threadedly engaged with the threaded collar 96, causing the threaded collar 96 to move. The threaded collar 96 drives the collar 93 to move inside the gasket 91 through the first guide block 95. The collar 93 drives the contact block 94 to slide in the through groove 92, so that the contact block 94 extends out from inside the gasket 91. This can increase the friction between the bolt and the engine cover, thereby improving the anti-loosening performance and reducing the risk of bolt loosening under vibration and high temperature environments. The stable bolt connection helps to maintain the correct position and sealing performance of the engine cover, thereby improving the overall performance and efficiency of the engine.
[0036] Then, the bolt 1 is passed through the engine cover and the frame through hole. During the process of passing through the through hole, the limiting block 115 is limited by the through hole, causing the limiting block 115 to drive the sliding block 114 to move into the mounting groove 112. The sliding block 114 pushes the second spring 113 to contract.
[0037] After passing through the through hole, the limiting block 115 is pushed to move the sliding block 114 to the other end of the second guide groove 3. The sliding block 114 drives the sliding collar 111 to push the first spring 12 to retract. Then, the nut 10 is fitted onto one end of the bolt 1 and rotated so that it rotates to the other side of the limiting block 115 and is tightly attached to the engine cover. After that, the limiting block 115 is released. The limiting block 115 pushes the sliding collar 111 to slide on the outer wall of the guide rod 8 by the elastic force of the first spring 12. The sliding collar 111 drives the limiting block 115 to be tightly attached to one side of the nut 10 by the sliding block 114, so that the locking block 16 on one side of the limiting block 115 and the locking groove 13 on the side of the nut 10 are engaged with each other, thereby limiting the nut 10 and preventing it from loosening. This increases the stability of the nut 10 and improves the installation stability of the engine cover.
[0038] The above specific embodiments are merely several optional embodiments of this utility model. Based on the technical solution of this utility model and the relevant teachings of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiments.
