[0023] Specific implementation examples are given below.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a non-standard flat nut for automobiles, comprising a first nut 11; a connecting hole 12 is provided inside the first nut 11; the connecting hole 12 is a through hole inside the first nut 11; an internal thread 13 is connected inside the first nut 11; a screw hole 14 is provided on the side wall of the first nut 11; the screw hole 14 is a through hole inside the first nut 11 and communicates with the connecting hole 12; a fastening bolt 15 is threadedly connected inside the screw hole 14; a thread groove 16 is provided on the top of the fastening bolt 15; during operation... When a non-standard offset nut is required, the first nut 11 can be locked by threading the connector through the connecting hole 12 and the internal thread 13. Then, by rotating the fastening bolt 15 through the thread groove 16, the other end of the fastening bolt 15 can exert force on the connector, resulting in a better lock. Through the above structure, the nut can be effectively prevented from loosening during vehicle operation. Its unique design can maintain a tight state even when the vehicle is subjected to severe vibrations on rough roads, ensuring the normal operation of the suspension system and improving driving safety.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the internal thread 13 of the first nut 11 is provided with anti-slip grooves 21; the anti-slip grooves 21 are arranged in a circular array on the side wall of the internal thread 13; when an eccentric nut is required during operation, the anti-slip grooves 21 on the internal thread 13 can provide a better locking effect, allowing for better contact between the anti-slip grooves 21 and the connecting parts, preventing slippage; through the above structure, the nut can be effectively prevented from loosening due to the high-frequency vibration of the engine. The grooves will generate resistance to loosening, just like gears interlocking, preventing the bolt from coming out of the nut.

[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a locking ring plate 31 is attached to the bottom of the first nut 11; the locking ring plate 31 has a through hole inside the first nut 11; the bottom of the locking ring plate 31 has an anti-slip groove 32; the anti-slip groove 32 is arranged in a circular array at the bottom of the locking ring plate 31; when an irregularly shaped nut is needed during operation, the locking ring plate 31 and the anti-slip groove 32 can make a large-area contact with the contact surface of the part, increasing its friction and preventing loosening; through the above structure, it is possible to effectively customize according to the contour of the irregularly shaped flat nut to ensure a tight fit. The tight fit design helps to evenly distribute the locking force and prevent the nut from loosening due to uneven force during vehicle operation.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, a washer groove 41 is provided at the bottom of the locking ring plate 31; an elastic washer 42 is placed inside the locking ring plate 31; the elastic washer 42 is elastically set inside the washer groove 41; when an eccentric nut is required during operation, the elastic washer 42 inside the washer groove 41 can provide elastic support, which can increase the elastic force between the first nut 11 and the part, making the nut more secure; through the above structure, it can effectively fit tightly against the surface of the nut and the connected part during installation, and support is generated between the nut and the mounting surface to prevent loosening and evenly distribute pressure.

[0028] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a reinforcing ring 51 is provided on the side wall of the first nut 11; the reinforcing ring 51 is located at the middle position of the first nut 11 and is rigidly connected to the first nut 11; when an eccentric nut is required during operation, the reinforcing ring 51 can make the first nut 11 more rigid, preventing cracks and breakage; through the above structure, a tight fit to the nut can be effectively ensured, providing it with all-round support and reinforcement.

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, a second nut 61 is provided on the side wall of the first nut 11; the second nut 61 is located below the side wall of the first nut 11 and is fixedly connected to the top of the locking ring plate 31; when an off-center nut is needed during operation, if the surface texture of the first nut 11 cannot be tightened, it can be tightened and loosened by the second nut 61; through the above structure, the nut can be effectively prevented from stripping, and the second nut 61 can be used for tightening and removal.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, the first nut 11 is made of stainless steel. When an off-center nut is needed during operation, the stainless steel material makes the structure more robust, preventing breakage and other issues. The structure effectively provides good toughness and plasticity, making it easy to process and shape, and better adapting to the complex assembly environment and different connection requirements of automobiles.

[0031] When a non-displacement nut is needed during operation, the first nut 11 can be locked by threading the connector through the connecting hole 12 and the internal thread 13. Rotating the fastening bolt 15 through the thread groove 16 allows the other end of the fastening bolt 15 to exert force on the connector, resulting in a better lock. When a non-displacement nut is needed, the anti-slip grooves 21 on the internal thread 13 provide a better locking effect, ensuring better contact between the anti-slip grooves 21 and the connector, preventing slippage. When a non-displacement nut is needed, the locking ring plate 31 and the anti-slip groove 32 allow for a large contact area with the part, increasing... The friction is increased to prevent loosening; when an offset nut is needed, the elastic washer 42 inside the washer groove 41 can provide elastic support, which can increase the elastic force between the first nut 11 and the part, making the nut more secure; when an offset nut is needed, the reinforcing ring 51 can make the first nut 11 more rigid, preventing cracks and breakage; when an offset nut is needed, if the surface texture of the first nut 11 cannot be tightened, the second nut 61 can be used for tightening and loosening; when an offset nut is needed, the stainless steel structure makes the structure more robust, preventing breakage and other problems.
