DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0045] The preferred embodiments of the utility model are specifically described below in combination with the drawings, wherein the drawings form a part of the utility model and are used together with the embodiments of the utility model to explain the principles of the utility model, and are not used to limit the scope of the utility model.

[0046] Embodiment 1

[0047] As shown in a specific embodiment of the utility model, Figures 1-5 a main bearing locking nut anti-loose structure is disclosed, comprising a locking nut 2, a locking piece 3 and an anti-rotation sleeve 4 which are sleeved on the outside of the journal 1 of the engine rotating shaft.

[0048] As shown in Figure 6 , the locking nut 2 comprises a fixed section 21 and a clamping section 22. As shown in Figure 5 , the fixed section 21 is provided with an internal thread and is connected with the external thread of the journal 1 to be fixed to the journal 1. In order to facilitate the installation of the anti-loose component, the locking nut 2 is also provided with the clamping section 22. As shown in Figure 3 , the outside of the clamping section 22 is provided with a plurality of first grooves in the circumferential direction. Exemplarily, the grooves in the embodiment are square cross-section grooves and are uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction.

[0049] As shown in Figure 7 , the locking piece 3 comprises a locking piece body 31, a first tooth 32 arranged at the rear end of the locking piece body 31 and a second tooth 33 arranged at the front end of the locking piece body 31.

[0050] The locking piece body 31 is cylindrical.

[0051] The first tooth 32 is an extension part extending outward along the axial direction from the circumferential edge of the rear end face of the locking piece body 31. Exemplarily, the first tooth 32 is uniformly distributed along the circumferential edge of the rear end face of the locking piece body 31. The first tooth 32 is embedded in the first groove to limit the circumferential movement of the clamping section 22 of the locking nut 2.

[0052] In the embodiment, the first tooth 32 of the locking piece body 31 is embedded in the first groove of the clamping section 22 to limit the circumferential movement of the fixed section 21 of the locking nut 2, so as to prevent the thread from loosening and failing under the load of impact and vibration and the locking nut 2 from loosening.

[0053] The second tooth 33 is arranged at the front end of the locking piece body 31 and extends outward along the radial direction from the circumferential edge of the front end face of the locking piece body 31. Exemplarily, the second tooth 33 is uniformly distributed from the circumferential edge of the front end face of the locking piece body 31. The second tooth 33 is used to be connected with the anti-rotation sleeve 4.

[0054] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 8As shown, the anti-rotation sleeve 4 is L-shaped in the cross section through its central axis. The anti-rotation sleeve 4 comprises a fixing portion 41 and an anti-rotation portion 42. The anti-rotation portion 42 is sleeved outside the lock piece body 31, and the fixing portion 41 is perpendicular to the axis thereof.

[0055] A part of the inner wall surface of the anti-rotation portion 42 is attached to the outer wall surface of the lock piece body 31 and the first tooth 32 to limit the circumferential movement of the lock piece 3; another part is attached to the outer wall surface of the lock nut 2 to further limit the circumferential movement of the lock nut 2. As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the front end of the anti-rotation portion 42 has a notch 421 which is mutually engaged with the second tooth 33. The second tooth 33 is inserted into the notch 421 and engaged with the notch 421 to limit the circumferential movement of the lock piece 3 again. In this embodiment, the anti-rotation sleeve 4 is sleeved outside the fixing segment 21 by the anti-rotation portion 42, and the end notch 421 of the anti-rotation portion 42 is engaged with the second tooth 33 to achieve the anti-loose effect of the lock piece 3. At the same time, the engagement of the notch 421 and the second tooth 33 also limits the circumferential movement of the anti-rotation portion 42, thereby achieving the anti-loose effect of the anti-rotation sleeve 4.

[0056] As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 The fixing portion 41 is connected with the shaft neck 1 to fix the anti-rotation sleeve 4 on the shaft neck 1. The shaft neck 1 is provided with a second groove 121, and the end edge of the fixing portion 41 is uniformly provided with a protrusion 411 in the circumferential direction, as shown in Figure 5 The protrusion 411 extends radially inwardly to be clamped into the second groove 121 of the shaft neck 1.

[0057] The fixing portion 41 is arranged between the lock nut 2 and the main bearing inner ring 6. The fixing portion 41 comprises a first abutting surface and a second abutting surface. The first abutting surface is abutted with the inner end surface of the lock nut 2, and the second abutting surface is abutted with the end surface of the main bearing inner ring 6.

[0058] In the prior art, between the lock nut 2 and the main bearing inner ring 6, in order to avoid damage to the main bearing inner ring 6, two ways are usually adopted, i.e. grinding the lock nut 2 or adding a gasket. Grinding the lock nut 2 will damage the surface structure of the lock nut 2, and the frequent disassembly after using the gasket will cause fatigue failure, thereby affecting the anti-loose effect. In this embodiment, the fixing portion 41 of the anti-rotation sleeve 4 is arranged between the lock nut 2 and the main bearing inner ring 6, which is used for fixing the anti-rotation sleeve 4 on one hand, and on the other hand, avoids the damage of the lock nut 2 by grinding and the frictional damage of the end surface of the main bearing inner ring 6 caused by the lock nut 2 during tightening, without the need of adding a gasket additionally. Moreover, the anti-rotation portion 42 and the fixing portion 41 of the anti-rotation sleeve 4 are integrated, and the fixing of the fixing portion 41 and the shaft neck 1 further enhances the anti-loose effect of the lock piece 3 and the lock nut 2.

[0059] Further, a spiral retainer 5 is further included. As shown inFigure 5 As shown, the anti-rotation part 42 is internally provided with a clamping groove 422 near the gap 421, and the outer edge of the spiral retainer 5 abuts the bottom surface of the clamping groove 422. The spiral retainer 5 is tightly attached to the inner wall of the clamping groove 422 under the tightening action of its radial elastic force and centrifugal force, thereby preventing it from falling off. The inner end surface of the spiral retainer 5 is in abutment with the outer end surface of the second tooth 33.

[0060] In this embodiment, the anti-rotation sleeve 4 is internally provided with a clamping groove, and the spiral retainer 5 is clamped therein to axially position the locking piece 3 and prevent it from falling out. At the same time, since the spiral retainer 5 is arranged in the internal clamping groove 422 of the anti-rotation sleeve 4, the arrangement of the spiral retainer 5 also limits the axial movement of the anti-rotation sleeve 4.

[0061] Compared with the prior art, in this embodiment, the first tooth 32 of the locking piece 3 is embedded in the first groove of the clamping section 22 of the locking nut 2, the anti-rotation sleeve 4 is arranged outside the locking nut 2 to limit the circumferential movement of the locking nut 2, and the anti-rotation sleeve 4 and the locking piece 3 jointly realize the anti-loosening of the locking nut 2; the fixed part 41 of the anti-rotation sleeve 4 is fixed to the shaft neck 1, the anti-rotation part 42 is arranged outside the locking piece 3, the gap 421 at the end of the anti-rotation part 42 is embedded with the second tooth 33 of the locking piece 3, thereby limiting the circumferential movement of the locking piece 3, and the anti-rotation part 42 and the locking piece 3 jointly realize the anti-loosening of the locking piece 3; the embedding of the gap 421 and the second tooth 33 also limits the circumferential movement of the anti-rotation part 42, thereby synchronously realizing the anti-loosening of the anti-rotation sleeve 4. In this embodiment, the locking nut 2, the locking piece 3, and the anti-rotation sleeve 4 in the anti-loosening structure are all anti-loosened, thereby avoiding the anti-loosening failure caused by the deformation and falling off of the anti-loosening components when only the locking nut 2 is anti-loosened, and the structure is simple and reliable, and easy to install and disassemble.

[0062] In this embodiment, the locking piece 3 is in a cylindrical structure and does not need to be bent and deformed before and after installation, can be repeatedly used, has low cost, and is good in assembly; the anti-rotation sleeve 4 has an L-shaped cross section passing through the center axis, the abutment surface of the fixed part 41 is in abutment with the end surface of the locking nut 2, and the inside of the anti-rotation part 42 is in abutment with the locking piece 3, so that the anti-rotation sleeve 4 does not need to be bent during assembly and will not be plastically deformed, and therefore the locking piece 3 and the anti-rotation sleeve 4 in this embodiment can be repeatedly used and do not need to be consumable parts, thereby reducing the production cost.
