[0020] The utility model will be further explained in connection with the drawings and examples, but it is not as the basis for limiting the utility model.

[0021] The embodiment of the utility model: a kind of adjustable grinding nut, including the hollow olive shape of shape grinding nut 1, i.e. grinding nut 1 middle size is large, then gradually size reduces to both ends, it further includes circular ring shape left adjusting ring 2 and right adjusting ring 3.Process, grinding nut 1 is sleeved on ball screw to be ground 4, the internal profile of grinding nut 1 is matched with the thread raceway profile of ball screw to be ground;And left adjusting ring 2 and right adjusting ring 3 are respectively sleeved on the outer conical surface of the left end and right end of grinding nut 1, i.e.left adjusting ring 2 is sleeved on the outer conical surface A 1.2 of the left end of grinding nut 1, right adjusting ring 3 is sleeved on the outer conical surface B 1.3 of the right end of grinding nut 1, during the process of sleeve connection, left adjusting ring 2 and right adjusting ring 3 are applied to grinding nut 1 by thread screwing and are applied to the grinding pre-tightening force in circumferential direction, and a plurality of elastic shrinkage grooves are respectively arranged on the outer conical surface A 1.2 and the outer conical surface B 1.3 of grinding nut 1, due to the existence of elastic shrinkage groove, grinding nut 1 occurs shrinkage deformation under the action of extrusion force, so that grinding pre-tightening force changes.

[0022] The middle convex outer circle of the grinding nut 1 is provided with external threads 1.1, the elastic shrinkage grooves include three or four elastic shrinkage grooves A1.4 provided on the outer conical surface A1.2 and three or four elastic shrinkage grooves B1.5 provided on the outer conical surface B1.3, the elastic shrinkage grooves A1.4 are uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction of the outer conical surface A1.2, the elastic shrinkage grooves B1.5 are uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction of the outer conical surface B1.3 and respectively penetrate the barrel wall of the outer conical surface at the left end and the right end of the grinding nut 1, the length of the elastic shrinkage grooves respectively extends from the left end face and the right end face of the grinding nut 1 to the undercut groove at the left end face and the right end face of the external threads 1.1, that is, the length of the elastic shrinkage grooves A1.4 extends from the left end face of the grinding nut 1 to the undercut groove at the left end face of the external threads 1.1, and the length of the elastic shrinkage grooves B1.5 extends from the right end face of the grinding nut 1 to the undercut groove at the right end face of the external threads 1.1.

[0023] The inner holes of the left adjusting ring 2 and the right adjusting ring 3 are both provided with two sections, one section is an inner conical surface section and the other section is an inner thread section.
