[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] Reference Figures 1-5 A nut structure for eliminating lead screw backlash includes a lead screw body 7, an mounting sleeve 1 sleeved on the outer wall of the lead screw body 7, and a mounting structure for connecting a driven component at the left end of the mounting sleeve 1. A first nut 11 and a second nut 6 located on the left and right sides are inserted into the mounting sleeve 1, and the internal threads on the inner walls of the first nut 11 and the second nut 6 are threaded to the external threads on the outer wall of the lead screw body 7. The inner wall of the mounting sleeve 1 is fixedly connected to the first nut 11 by a fastening structure, and the outer wall of the second nut 6 is slidably connected to the mounting sleeve 1 by a sliding limiting structure. A spring 5 is inserted into the mounting sleeve 1, and the left and right ends of the spring 5 abut against the first nut 11 and the second nut 6, respectively.

[0021] Reference Figures 1-5 In order to reduce the contact and friction between the spring 5 and the lead screw body 7, the spring 5 includes a wave-shaped washer spring and the spring 5 does not contact the lead screw body 7.

[0022] Reference Figures 1-5 In order to fix the first nut 11 of the inserted mounting sleeve 1, the fastening structure includes fastening holes 3 and fastening studs 4. Several sets of fastening holes 3 are provided on the outer wall of the mounting sleeve 1, and a set of fastening holes 3 is internally threaded with fastening studs 4. One end of the fastening stud 4 located inside the mounting sleeve 1 abuts against the first nut 11.

[0023] Reference Figures 1-5 In order to facilitate the installation and removal of the fastening stud 4 and ensure that the surface of the mounting sleeve 1 is flat and without protrusions, the end face of the fastening stud 4 located outside the mounting sleeve 1 is provided with a hexagonal hole to facilitate the insertion of a hexagonal wrench and to drive the fastening stud 4 to rotate.

[0024] Reference Figures 1-5 In order to synchronize the number of rotations of the second nut 6 and the first nut 11, the sliding limit structure includes a limit slider 8 and a limit groove 9. Several limit grooves 9 are provided on the outer wall of the right end of the mounting sleeve 1, and the limit grooves 9 are located on the right side of the first nut 11. Several limit sliders 8 are integrally formed on the outer wall of the second nut 6, and the limit sliders 8 are slidably disposed in several limit grooves 9 respectively.

[0025] Reference Figures 1-5 In order to enable the first nut 11, which is installed in different positions inside the mounting sleeve 1, to be fixed by screwing the fastening stud 4 into different sets of fastening holes 3, several sets of fastening holes 3 are equidistantly arranged along the axial direction of the mounting sleeve 1, and the axes of several fastening holes 3 in one set point to the same point on the axis of the mounting sleeve 1.

[0026] Reference Figures 1-5 In order to fix the mounting sleeve 1 to the component that needs to be driven to move left and right, the mounting structure includes a flange ring 2 and mounting holes 10. The flange ring 2 is integrally formed on the outer wall of the left end of the mounting sleeve 1. Several mounting holes 10 for fasteners such as screws are opened on the side of the flange ring 2, and the several mounting holes 10 are arranged in a circular array on the flange ring 2 with the center of the flange ring 2 as the center.

[0027] Working principle: First, spring 5 is fitted onto the lead screw body 7. Then, first nuts 11 and second nuts 6, located on the left and right sides of spring 5 respectively, are rotated onto the lead screw body 7 from both ends, so that spring 5 is clamped between first nuts 11 and second nuts 6. Next, mounting sleeve 1 is fitted onto the lead screw body 7 from the left side of second nut 6, and the mounting sleeve 1 is fitted over second nut 6, spring 5 and first nut 11, so that the limiting slider 8 on second nut 6 is inserted into the limiting groove 9. Then, a set of fastening studs 4 are rotated, and the first nut is tightened through the fastening studs 4. 11 is pressed and fixed to fix the connection of the mounting sleeve 1; when it is necessary to adjust the compression length of the spring 5 to adjust the thrust on the first nut 11 and the second nut 6, the fastening stud 4 can be loosened, so that the second nut 6 can be rotated and moved on the screw body 7 by rotating the mounting sleeve 1 (or the fastening stud 4 can be loosened to rotate the first nut 11 and move on the screw body 7), so that the compression length of the spring 5 can be adjusted by changing the distance between the second nut 6 and the first nut 11, and then the fastening stud 4 can be tightened again after adjustment;

[0028] This nut structure, by setting two nuts, a first nut 11 and a second nut 6, on the lead screw body 7 and placing a spring 5 between the two nuts, generates a thrust that pushes the two nuts to both sides with the help of the mounting sleeve 1. This causes the inner thread of the first nut 11 to align with the outer thread of the lead screw body 7 to the left, and the inner thread of the second nut 6 to align with the outer thread of the lead screw body 7 to the right, thereby reducing the gap with the lead screw body 7. This reduces the risk of structural swaying and improves the accuracy of electric cylinders, electric slides, etc., using this structure. Furthermore, the distance between the first nut 11 and the second nut 6 can be adjusted to change the compression length of the spring 5, thus changing the magnitude of the thrust that pushes the two nuts to both sides.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
