The front surface of the mounting part has a positioning groove with a regular hexagonal cross-section. The inner rear wall of the positioning groove has a threaded hole matching the stud. A fixing plate with a regular hexagonal cross-section is provided inside the positioning groove. A through hole matching the stud is provided in the middle of the surface of the fixing plate. The nut has a regular hexagonal cross-section, and the diameter of the inscribed circle of the regular hexagon is larger than the diameter of the threaded hole and the through hole. The stud passes through the through hole and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole. The side surface of the fixing plate has multiple anti-rotation blocks that match the corners of the positioning groove. All the anti-rotation blocks are tilted forward. The nut and the fixing plate are connected by a snap-fit device.
[0006] Preferably, the snap-fit device includes multiple snap-fit posts and multiple snap-fit slots. The multiple snap-fit posts are all disposed on the rear surface of the nut, and the multiple snap-fit slots are all formed on the front surface of the fixing piece. The multiple snap-fit posts and multiple snap-fit slots correspond to and match one-to-one, and the snap-fit posts extend into the snap-fit slots.
[0007] Preferably, the front surface of the mounting part is provided with an anti-collision block, which is disposed outside the positioning groove.
[0008] Preferably, the front surface of the nut is provided with an operating groove, and the cross-section of the operating groove is a regular hexagon.
[0009] Preferably, the included angle between the fixing plate and the anti-rotation block is 120-150 degrees.
[0010] Preferably, three anti-rotation blocks are provided, and the three anti-rotation blocks are evenly distributed on the side surface of the fixing plate.
[0011] The present invention proposes an anti-loosening excavator counterweight bolt, which has the following advantages: by using a snap-fit device, the snap-fit post is inserted into the snap-fit groove, and then the stud is inserted into the threaded hole and threadedly connected to it. After the anti-rotation block is installed and fixed, multiple anti-rotation blocks are flattened with a hammer so that the anti-rotation blocks are placed in the corner of the positioning groove. Through the snap-fit action of the snap-fit post and the snap-fit groove of the snap-fit device, as well as the snap-fit between the anti-rotation block and the corner of the positioning groove, the counterweight bolt is prevented from loosening or even falling off, thus avoiding property damage and personal injury.

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0017] Reference Figure 1-3 A type of anti-loosening excavator counterweight bolt includes a bolt body 1 and a matching mounting part 2. The bolt body 1 includes a nut 101 and a stud 102. The front surface of the mounting part 2 is provided with a positioning groove 3, the cross-sectional shape of which is a regular hexagon. The rear inner wall of the positioning groove 3 is provided with a screw hole 4 that matches the stud 102. The positioning groove 3 is provided with a fixing plate 5, the cross-sectional shape of which is a regular hexagon. The middle of the surface of the fixing plate 5 is provided with a through hole 6 that matches the stud 102. The cross-sectional shape of the nut 101 is a regular hexagon, and the diameter of the inscribed circle of the regular hexagon is larger than the diameter of the screw hole 4 and the through hole 6. The stud 102 passes through the through hole 6 and is threadedly connected to the screw hole 4. The side surface of the fixing plate 5 is provided with a plurality of anti-rotation blocks 7 that match the corners of the positioning groove 3. The plurality of anti-rotation blocks 7 are all tilted forward. The nut 101 and the fixing plate 5 are connected by a snap-fit device.
[0018] The snap-fit device includes multiple snap-fit posts 8 and multiple snap-fit grooves 9. The multiple snap-fit posts 8 are all located on the rear surface of the nut 101, and the multiple snap-fit grooves 9 are all located on the front surface of the fixing piece 5. The multiple snap-fit posts 8 and the multiple snap-fit grooves 9 correspond to and match one-to-one, and the snap-fit posts 8 extend into the snap-fit grooves 9.
[0019] A bumper block 10 is provided on the front surface of the mounting part 2, and the bumper block 10 is located outside the positioning groove 3. The bumper block 10 serves to prevent other heavy objects from hitting the nut 101.
[0020] The front surface of the nut 101 has an operating groove 11, the cross-section of which is a regular hexagon. This facilitates operation of the operating groove 11 using an Allen wrench, thus enriching the types of tools that can be used.
[0021] The included angle between the fixing plate 5 and the anti-rotation block 7 is 120-150 degrees, which makes it convenient to strike the anti-rotation block 7.
[0022] Three anti-rotation blocks 7 are provided, and the three anti-rotation blocks 7 are evenly distributed on the side surface of the fixing plate 5. The three anti-rotation blocks 7 are provided to facilitate bending.
[0023] Working principle: When installing the bolt body 1 and the mounting part 2, first, the stud 102 is passed through the through hole 6. Then, through the snap-fit device, the snap-fit post 8 is inserted into the snap-fit groove 9. Then, the stud 102 is inserted into the screw hole 4 and threadedly connected to it. After the anti-rotation block 7 is installed and fixed, the multiple anti-rotation blocks 7 are flattened with a hammer so that the anti-rotation blocks 7 are placed in the corner of the positioning groove 3. Through the snap-fit action of the snap-fit post 8 and the snap-fit groove 9 of the snap-fit device, as well as the snap-fit between the anti-rotation block 7 and the corner of the positioning groove 3, the counterweight bolt is prevented from loosening or even falling off, thus avoiding property damage and personal injury.
