Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bathroom equipment assembly structure technology, and in particular to an extended quick-release nut. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technology, when assembling bathroom fixtures such as faucets and inlet valves, they are usually fixed by means of screws and nuts. For example, when assembling a faucet, an external thread is provided on the mounting and fixing threaded tube of the faucet, and the threaded section of the mounting and fixing threaded tube is set to be relatively long. Then, a nut is screwed onto the mounting and fixing threaded tube of the faucet, thereby fixing the faucet to the mounting panel.

[0003] Because the installation space for the faucet is limited, or the fixed installation location is not visible, it is inconvenient to screw on the nut, making quick installation impossible. When installing the nut, it is screwed in along the external thread of the faucet's mounting tube; when removing the nut, it is screwed out in the opposite direction along the external thread of the mounting tube. The screwing-in and screwing-out stroke of the nut is relatively long, making quick installation and removal impossible.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, publication number CN111005925A discloses a quick-installation nut to enable rapid installation and removal. However, since the water pipe needs to pass through the middle of the nut, the length of the sleeve portion gripped by the quick-installation nut cannot be too long, otherwise it may interfere with the water pipe and affect the rapid installation. Furthermore, the length of the sleeve portion is fixed and cannot be lengthened. On the other hand, if the length of the sleeve portion is set to be too short, it is difficult to rotate the nut for installation, resulting in insufficient installation firmness and easy loosening. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in the aforementioned technologies. Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an extended quick-release nut, so that the length of the gripping part can be increased or decreased, making assembly more convenient and secure.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an extended quick-release nut, comprising:

[0007] The nut body includes a threaded part and a sleeve part connected to each other. The threaded part and the sleeve part are cylindrical. The inner sidewall of the threaded part forms an internal thread. The outer sidewall of the sleeve part is provided with a hanger near the threaded part. The outer sidewall of the sleeve part is provided with a slide rail along the axial direction. The outer sidewall of the sleeve part is provided with a groove communicating with the slide rail along the circumferential direction at the end away from the threaded part.

[0008] A socket is provided, which is cylindrical and is fitted onto the sleeve portion of the nut body. The upper part of the inner sidewall of the socket is provided with a slider that can slide in the slide rail, and the upper part of the inner sidewall of the socket is also provided with a groove for the hanger to be inserted.

[0009] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an extended quick-release nut is provided. When assembling the nut, the slider of the socket slides down along the slide rail of the nut body socket. Then, the socket is rotated so that its slider is engaged in the slot of the nut body socket for limiting, thereby extending the nut body socket. Continuing to rotate the socket causes the nut body threaded connection to rotate, realizing the threaded connection between the nut body threaded connection and the screw, making assembly more convenient and secure.

[0010] After assembly, in use, the slider of the socket slides along the slide rail of the nut body socket to near the screw connection. At this time, the hanging part of the socket is engaged in the groove of the socket, so that the socket returns to its original position without falling down. This increases the convenience of nut installation without affecting the faucet water pipe pulling effect.

[0011] In addition, the extended quick-release nut proposed in the above embodiments of this utility model may also have the following additional technical features:

[0012] Optionally, the outer wall of the socket portion has a protrusion at the end away from the screw portion, and the protrusion is located above the slot to abut against the socket.

[0013] Specifically, the inner sidewall of the upper end of the socket is provided with a slope to abut against the protrusion.

[0014] Optionally, the upper and lower sidewalls of the slot of the socket are configured as upwardly inclined slopes.

[0015] Optionally, the outer side wall of the sleeve is provided with a raised rib along the axial direction at the end away from the screw connection, and the raised rib is located on one side of the slide rail and opposite to the slot; the inner side wall of the upper end of the sleeve is provided with a relief portion corresponding to the raised rib, and the bottom of the relief portion is a step to abut against the bottom of the raised rib.

[0016] Optionally, the lower end of the sleeve is provided with a C-shaped groove along the axial direction. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0025] To better understand the above technical solutions, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present invention and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an extended quick-install nut according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a nut body 1 and a sleeve 2.

[0027] The nut body 1 includes a threaded portion 11 and a sleeve portion 12 connected to each other. The threaded portion 11 and the sleeve portion 12 are cylindrical, and the inner sidewall of the threaded portion 11 forms an internal thread. The structure of the threaded portion 11 can be the structure disclosed in publication number CN111005925A, or it can be other structures, the specific structure of which will not be described here. The threaded portion 11 is used for quick connection with the screw.

[0028] The outer wall of the sleeve portion 12, near the screw portion 11, is provided with a hanging member 121. The outer wall of the sleeve portion 12 is axially provided with a slide rail 122. At the end of the outer wall of the sleeve portion 12 away from the screw portion 11, a groove 123 communicating with the slide rail 122 is provided circumferentially. The hanging member 121 can be a protrusion with a downward-facing inclined guide surface on its upper side and an upward-facing inclined guide surface on its lower side. In this invention, the part near the screw portion 11 is the upper part, and the part away from the screw portion 11 is the lower part. The hanging member 121 is located above the upper end of the slide rail 122. The slide rail 122 can be a groove provided on the sleeve portion 12. The groove 123 is located at the lower end of the slide rail 122. Optionally, the upper and lower side walls of the groove 123 of the sleeve portion 12 are configured as upward-sloping surfaces.

[0029] The socket 2 is cylindrical and is sleeved on the sleeve portion 12 of the nut body 1. The upper part of the inner side wall of the socket 2 is provided with a slider 21 that can slide in the slide rail 122. The upper part of the inner side wall of the socket 2 is also provided with a groove 22 for the hanging piece 121 to be inserted. The groove 22 can be set around the circumference of the socket 2, and its circumferential width is greater than the circumferential width of the hanging piece 121, so that the hanging piece 121 can be inserted into the groove 22.

[0030] When assembling the nut, the slider 21 of the socket 2 slides down along the slide rail 122 of the socket part 12 of the nut body 1. Usually, it slides down to the lower end of the slide rail 122. Then, the socket 2 is rotated so that its slider 21 is engaged in the slot 123 of the socket part 12 of the nut body 1 for limiting, thereby extending the socket part 12 of the nut body 1. The socket 2 continues to rotate, causing the threaded part 11 of the nut body 1 to rotate as well, so as to realize the threaded connection between the threaded part 11 of the nut body 1 and the screw, making the assembly more convenient and the assembly more secure.

[0031] After assembly, in use, the slider 21 of the socket 2 slides up along the slide rail 122 of the socket part 12 of the nut body 1 to near the screw part 11, usually sliding up to the upper end of the slide rail 122. At this time, the hanging part 121 of the socket part 12 is engaged in the groove 22 of the socket 2, so that the socket 2 returns to its original position without falling down, thereby increasing the convenience of nut installation without affecting the faucet water pipe pulling effect.

[0032] Optionally, the outer side wall of the socket 12, away from the screw portion 11, is provided with a protrusion 124. The protrusion 124 is located above the slot 123 to abut against the socket 2. Specifically, the inner side wall of the upper end of the socket 2 is provided with a ramp 23 to abut against the protrusion. The slider 21 of the socket 2 slides down along the slide rail 122 of the socket 12 of the nut body 1, and then the socket 2 is rotated so that its slider 21 is engaged in the slot 123 of the socket 12 of the nut body 1 for limiting. At this time, the protrusion 124 abuts against the ramp 23 of the socket 2 to prevent the socket 2 from falling back along the slot 123, making the rotation of the socket 2 convenient.

[0033] Optionally, the outer side wall of the sleeve portion 12, away from the threaded portion 11, is provided with a raised rib 125 along the axial direction. The raised rib 125 is located on one side of the slide rail 122 and opposite to the slot 123. The inner side wall of the upper end of the sleeve 2 is provided with a relief portion 24 corresponding to the raised rib 125. The bottom of the relief portion 24 is a step 25 to abut against the bottom of the raised rib 125. The slider 21 of the sleeve 2 slides down along the slide rail 122 of the sleeve portion 12 of the nut body 1, and then the sleeve 2 is rotated so that its slider 21 is engaged in the slot 123 of the sleeve portion 12 of the nut body 1 for limiting. At this time, the bottom of the raised rib 125 abuts against the step 25 of the relief portion 24 to increase the force-bearing surface of the sleeve 2 when it rotates, thereby enhancing the force-bearing strength of the sleeve 2.

[0034] Optionally, the lower end of the sleeve portion 12 is provided with a C-shaped groove 126 along the axial direction to suspend the hose. The C-shaped groove 126 can limit the hose and prevent it from loosening.
