Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] In the prior art, traditional anti-loose methods such as using spring washers often fail to achieve the expected anti-loose effect in practical applications. The principle of spring washers is to absorb vibration through elastic deformation, which theoretically can prevent nut loosening, but in practice, the effect of this method is not ideal, and nut loosening still occurs frequently, especially in high-vibration, frequent temperature change or long-term use environments.

[0003] Secondly, the existing nut design generally lacks adaptability, as they cannot effectively adjust to different lengths of screw rods, which seriously affects the universality and practicality of nuts. In practical applications, the length of the screw rod may vary due to different design requirements or installation environments, and fixed-size nuts cannot flexibly adapt to these changes, which may lead to installation difficulties, unstable connection or the need for additional parts for adjustment.

[0004] Finally, some existing lock nuts are designed with wedge blocks to tighten the bolts to increase friction and anti-loose effect, but this design method has a significant defect that it causes unbalanced stress between the bolt and the nut. The unilateral pressure of the wedge block causes uneven stress distribution at the threaded connection, and this unbalanced stress state may cause additional wear and stress concentration on the bolt and nut.
