DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The technical scheme in the utility model embodiments will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings of the utility model embodiments, and apparently, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all the embodiments.
[0021] Refer to Figs. 1-3A locking nut includes a nut body 1 and a bolt 2. The upper end of the nut body 1 has a threaded hole 3 that matches the bolt 2. The lower end of the nut body 1 is fixedly connected to an installation ring 4. An elastic washer 5 is fixedly connected inside the installation ring 4. The lower end of the bolt 2 is fixedly connected to an anti-loosening block 6 that matches the elastic washer 5. The upper ends of both sides of the nut body 1 are fixedly connected to installation blocks 7. The upper end of the bolt 2 is fixedly connected to a hexagonal head 8. The upper surface of the hexagonal head 8 is provided with a locking component.
[0022] In this utility model, the anti-loosening component includes sliding grooves 9 on both sides of the upper surface of the hexagonal head 8. The design of the sliding grooves 9 allows the sliding rod 10 to slide smoothly and steadily inside them. The sliding rod 10 is movably connected inside the sliding grooves 9. A snap-fit block 11 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the sliding rod 10. The shape and size of the snap-fit block 11 perfectly match the snap-fit groove 12 on the mounting block 7, ensuring a firm connection between the two. The upper surface of the mounting block 7 has a snap-fit groove 12 that matches the snap-fit block 11. The design of the snap-fit groove 12 provides a stable and reliable locking position for the snap-fit block 11. A limit block 13 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sliding rod 10. The presence of the limit block 13 effectively prevents the sliding rod 10 from falling off during the sliding process, enhancing the overall stability of the anti-loosening component.
[0023] Both sides of the lower surface of the hexagonal head 8 are provided with storage slots 14 that are adapted to the snap-fit block 11. The storage slots 14 provide an initial storage position for the snap-fit block 11, ensuring smooth movement of the snap-fit block 11 during the sliding process. The storage slots 14 are connected to the slide groove 9. The lower surface of the mounting ring 4 is fixedly connected with a protective nut 15. The protective nut 15 provides additional protection for the nut body 1, increasing the durability and safety of the device. Several functional slots 16 are provided on the surface of the nut body 1. The design of the functional slots 16 reduces the weight of the nut body 1 and improves its overall performance.
[0024] In use, the bolt 2 is first aligned with the threaded hole 3 on the nut body 1. Then, a rotational force is applied through the hexagonal head 8 to screw the bolt 2 into the threaded hole 3 of the nut body 1. Once the bolt 2 is fully screwed in, the anti-slip block 6 at its lower end will precisely embed into the elastic washer 5 fixed by the mounting ring 4 at the lower end of the nut body 1. At this time, the receiving groove 14 at the lower part of the hexagonal head 8 will align with the pre-set snap-fit groove 12 on the mounting block 7. The strong friction generated between the anti-slip block 6 and the elastic washer 5 provides initial anti-loosening protection for the bolt 2, effectively resisting initial vibration or external force. Then push the slide bar 10 downwards to make it slide smoothly in the slide groove 9, so that the locking block 11 hidden in the storage groove 14 can slide smoothly into and pass through the locking groove 12 on the mounting block 7. After the locking block 11 has completely passed through the locking groove 12, rotate the locking block 11 to lock it in a position where it cannot return directly through the locking groove 12. At this time, the locking block 11 and the limiting block 13 at the upper end of the slide bar 10 together form a reliable limiting mechanism, which firmly locks the relative position of the bolt 2 and the nut body 1, thereby improving the stability of the connection and effectively preventing loosening caused by vibration or external force.
[0025] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
