[0025] The utility model will be further explained in detail in combination with specific embodiments.
[0026] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A bearing nut, comprising a nut body 1, an inner ring bearing ring 2 and a spring ring 3, the nut body 1 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the inner ring bearing ring 2, the spring ring 3 is located between the nut body 1 and the inner ring bearing ring 2, and the inner ring bearing ring 2 can rotate freely in the nut body.
[0027] In an embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The nut body 1 is arranged in a whole annular shape, the outer periphery of the two ends of the nut body 1 in the axial direction is chamfered, the nut body 1 is composed of two parts, which are threaded part 12 and fixed part 13 respectively, the two parts are integrally formed, and the outer rings of the two parts are consistent, the inner circle of the threaded part 12 is larger than that of the fixed part 13, specifically, the inner diameters of the threaded part 12 and the fixed part 13 are sequentially reduced. Wherein, the fixed part 13 is located at one end of the nut body 1, the threaded part 12 is the main part of the nut body 1, and the fixed part 13 is used for fixing the inner ring bearing ring 2.
[0028] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The inner sidewall of the threaded portion 12 is provided with an internal thread, and the fixing portion 11 is provided with a supporting portion 131 on the side opposite to the threaded portion 12. The supporting portion 131 is located inside the fixing portion 13 and is annular. The supporting portion 131 is used to support the inner ring bearing ring 2.
[0029] An annular groove 132 is provided on the inner side of the fixing part 13, and the annular groove 132 is used to install the spring coil 3.
[0030] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The inner bearing ring 2 abuts against the inner side of the fixing part 13. The inner bearing ring 2 consists of two parts: a main body 21 and an insert part 22. The main body 21 and the insert part 22 are integrally formed. The outer side wall of the insert part 22 abuts against the inner side wall of the abutting part 131, and the thickness of the insert part 22 and the abutting part 131 are the same. The main body 21 is located inside the abutting part 131. A fixing groove 211 is provided on the outer periphery of the main body 21. The fixing groove 211 and the annular groove 132 are correspondingly arranged to form an installation space for fixing the spring ring 3. The installation space formed by the fixing groove 211 and the annular groove 132 has a rectangular cross-section in the vertical direction. By making the installation space rectangular, the installation space can be evenly stressed, preventing loosening. In one embodiment, the outer periphery of the main body 21 pointing towards the insert part 22 is chamfered.
[0031] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the bearing portion is provided with a straight hole 23, a tapered hole 24 and an eccentric hole 25 on its inner side. The straight hole 23 is located at one end of the inner ring bearing 2 pointing towards the fixed portion 13. The circular hole is located at one end of the inner ring bearing hole away from the fixed portion 13. The inner diameter of the tapered hole 24 gradually decreases from the circular hole towards the straight hole 23. The minimum inner diameter of the tapered hole 24 is equal to the inner diameter of the straight hole 23.
[0032] The spring coil 3 is located within the fixing groove 211 and the annular groove 132. In one embodiment, the cross-section of the spring coil 3 in the vertical direction is a right trapezoid; in other embodiments, the cross-section of the spring coil 3 in the vertical direction can also be triangular, circular, or quadrilateral. The spring coil 3 has a notch, and when it is located within the fixing groove 211 and the annular groove 132, it is in a compressed state. The spring coil 3 allows the inner bearing ring 2 to be snapped into the nut body, enabling the inner bearing ring to rotate freely within the nut body. Simultaneously, when the bearing ring is subjected to external force, the deformation of the spring coil 3 achieves a buffering and shock-absorbing effect.
[0033] This application also provides a bearing that includes the bearing nut described above.
[0034] The bearing nut provided in this application, through the setting of the spring ring 3, during application, the radial preload generated by the spring ring 3 under the compression state enables the inner bearing ring 2 to form a stable dynamic connection with the nut body 1. This not only ensures the free rotation function of the bearing ring under normal working conditions, but also absorbs axial vibration and radial impact through elastic deformation, significantly improving the nut's anti-loosening performance under dynamic load. Secondly, the composite structure of the tapered hole 24-straight hole 23 of the inner bearing ring 2, combined with the flexible support of the spring ring 3, can adaptively compensate for the assembly eccentricity of the shaft or bolt, reduce local stress concentration on the contact surface, and extend the service life of the component.
[0035] Furthermore, the symmetrical layout of the annular groove 132 and the fixed groove 211, along with the notch design of the spring ring 3, not only simplifies the assembly process but also, through the modular arrangement of the elastic elements, allows for the maintenance and replacement of the bearing ring without disassembling the entire nut system, significantly improving maintenance efficiency. This structure combines rigid connection with elastic buffering characteristics, offering significant advantages in mechanical transmission fields such as high reliability, long service life, and ease of maintenance.
