[0023] The technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be described clearly and completely in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model, and obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all the embodiments.
[0024] The utility model provides technical scheme: such as Figure 1 And Figure 2As shown, a kind of corrosion-resistant bolt used underwater includes screw rod 1, the outer thread 11 is provided on screw rod 1, and nut 5 is sleeved on the outer thread 11 of screw rod 1, the top of screw rod 1 is provided with circle groove 12, and sealing ring 13 is arranged in circle groove 12, the radial depth R1 of circle groove 12 is less than the radial depth R2 of sealing ring 13, i.e. R1 < R2, a plurality of protrusions 131 are circumferentially arranged on the sidewall of sealing ring 13, and the plurality of protrusions 131 are equidistantly arranged, it needs to be explained that sealing ring 13 is arranged in circle groove 12, since the diameter of sealing ring 13 is larger, it can extend to the outside of circle groove 12, so that when the bolt is used for connection, with the tightening of the bolt, sealing ring 13 is extruded, the bottom of sealing ring 13 is in contact with the surface of the connecting piece, and the gap between the connecting piece and the bolt is filled by the elastic deformation of sealing ring 13 itself, to ensure close contact, and a certain buffering effect is achieved, to avoid loosening of the bolt in subsequent use, and the elastic properties of sealing ring 13 itself can absorb and disperse the influence of dynamic load changes, to reduce the direct impact on the bolt.
[0025] In addition, as Figure 3 As shown, the upper end of screw rod 1 is fixedly connected with head 2, gasket 21 is arranged on the sidewall of the connecting end of head 2 with screw rod 1, a plurality of grooves 211 are circumferentially arranged on the lower surface of gasket 21, and the width of groove 211 is equal to the width of protrusion 131, it needs to be explained that the grooves 211 arranged on gasket 21 correspond to the protrusions 131 arranged on sealing ring 13, when the bolt is assembled, the protrusions 131 on sealing ring 13 can be embedded in grooves 211 of gasket 21, to form a kind of interlocking state, which can significantly increase the friction between bolt head 2 and the connecting piece, when the bolt is subjected to axial tension or other external force, this friction can effectively prevent the relative sliding between the bolt and the connecting piece, to ensure the reliability and stability of connection, and in some vibration environment or dynamic load, the increase of friction can also reduce the micro displacement and friction loss between components due to vibration, to prolong the service life of the entire connection structure, and improve its working performance and safety.
[0026] As shown, Figure 4As shown, the head 2 is provided with an assembly groove 22, and the two ends of the assembly groove 22 are respectively provided with an anode block 4. The assembly groove 22 is provided as a trapezoidal groove, and the two sides of the trapezoidal groove are respectively provided with an extension groove in communication. This shape design can maximize the use of space in a limited space, while enhancing the structural stability. The anode block 4 is arranged in the extension groove, and the width of the extension groove is equal to the width of the anode block 4. It should be noted that through precise size matching, the stability of the installation of the anode block 4 is ensured by the friction between the side wall of the anode block 4 and the inner wall of the extension groove. Further, the metal activity of the anode block 4 is higher than that of the bolt material. According to the working principle of the primary battery, the anode undergoes oxidation reaction, that is, the anode block 4 will be continuously corroded and consumed. In the oxidation reaction process, the anode block 4 loses electrons, and the electrons are conducted to the surface of the bolt through the metal. The surface of the bolt is difficult to undergo oxidation reaction, thereby avoiding corrosion of the bolt, prolonging the service life of the bolt, ensuring the stability and reliability of the bolt connection structure, and ensuring the normal operation of the entire equipment or structure connected by the bolt.
[0027] Specifically, the assembly groove 22 is provided with a supporting mechanism 3, the supporting mechanism 3 includes an adapter plate 31, the two ends of the adapter plate 31 are respectively provided with a pin shaft, the pin shaft is provided with a movable plate 32, and the end of the movable plate 32 away from the adapter plate 31 extends into the extension groove on both sides of the assembly groove 22. The bottom of the adapter plate 31 is provided with a spring 33, and the lower end of the assembly groove 22 is provided with a limiting groove 23, and the spring 33 is arranged in the limiting groove 23. The bottom of the spring 33 is fixedly connected with the inner wall of the limiting groove 23, and the top of the spring 33 is fixedly connected with the lower surface of the adapter plate 31. It should be noted that when the anode block 4 is placed in the extension groove on both sides of the assembly groove 22, it will push the movable plate 32 to move, and finally make the adapter plate 31 move upward. At this time, the spring 33 is in a stretched state. With the corrosion and consumption of the anode block 4, the contact area between the side wall of the anode block 4 and the inner wall of the extension groove becomes smaller. When the spring 33 contracts, the force generated by the spring 33 is transmitted to the end of the movable plate 32, which can push the anode block 4 to move outward from the head 2, thereby ensuring that the anode block 4 is in full contact with the water body, and the bolt as a whole has a good corrosion prevention effect. Further, when the anode block 4 is consumed, the spring 33 is retracted into the limiting groove 23, and the adapter plate 31 is in contact with the bottom of the assembly groove 22, and finally the end of the movable plate 32 rotatably arranged on both sides of the adapter plate 31 moves to the outside of the head 2. Therefore, the width between the corresponding side walls of the head 2 is changed. Even if the corners of the bolt head 2 are corroded due to the untimely replacement of the anode block 4, the bolt head 2 can also be twisted by using a wrench or other auxiliary tools.
[0028] The above merely describes a preferred embodiment of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any skilled person in the art, according to the technical scheme and the inventive concept of the present application, makes equivalent replacement or change within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
