[0012] In this way, the inverted bevel facilitates insertion during installation, and the position of the inverted bevel can not be provided with threads, so that the external threads of the outer wall of the connecting sleeve can not be processed to the bottom, facilitating processing.
[0013] Further, the inner wall of the locking ring is provided with an inverted bevel towards one end of the nut body.
[0014] In this way, the inverted bevel of the compression ring contacts the locking sleeve before overlapping with the locking sleeve, so that it can be slid along the inclined surface, and the locking process is more smooth.
[0015] Further, the length of the internal threads of the locking ring is greater than the length of the external threads of the connecting sleeve.
[0016] In this way, the compression ring will not press the external threads of the connecting sleeve, and will not damage it.
[0017] Further, the inner wall of the locking ring is provided with a connecting groove adapted to the compression ring on the side away from the nut body, and the inner diameter of the connecting groove is greater than the outer diameter of the internal threads of the locking ring.
[0018] In this way, the compression ring and the locking ring can be processed separately, the internal threads of the locking ring can be directly processed without being disturbed by the compression ring, and after the thread processing is completed, the compression ring is inserted into the connecting groove for connection, and the processing is more convenient.
[0019] Further, the locking ring and the compression ring are welded.
[0020] In this way, the compression ring can be welded on the outside, without affecting the operation of the intermediate structure, and the welded structure is more stable.
[0021] Further, the outer diameter of the locking sleeve is smaller than the inner diameter of the external threads of the connecting sleeve.
[0022] In this way, the external threads of the outer wall of the connecting sleeve will not touch the outer wall of the locking sleeve when processing, and the processing is more smooth. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
