[0002] In the field of mechanical connection and fastening, hexagonal nuts are a commonly used fastener and are widely used in various engineering structures and equipment. In particular, in fields such as heavy machinery, bridges, buildings and aerospace where high-strength heavy-duty hexagonal nuts need to withstand high-intensity loads and vibration environments, the performance and reliability of high-strength heavy-duty hexagonal nuts are of paramount importance.

[0003] In practical applications, traditional hexagonal nuts are prone to loosening or even falling off due to vibration, impact, or long-term load. This not only affects the normal operation of equipment but may also cause serious safety accidents. Traditionally, spring washers are mostly used to prevent nuts from loosening. However, for connections requiring high sealing performance, such as high-pressure pipelines and hydraulic systems, nut washers may not provide sufficient sealing and can easily lead to leakage. Therefore, we propose a high-strength heavy-duty hexagonal nut. Utility Model Content

[0026] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a high-strength heavy-duty hexagonal nut, comprising:

[0027] Nut body 1, with threaded groove 4 inside the nut body 1;

[0028] A sealing structure is located on the nut body 1;

[0029] The sealing structure includes a mounting ring 5, a mounting ring 6, a sliding ring 7, and a connecting ring 8. Mounting ring 5 and mounting ring 6 are both fixedly connected to the top of the nut body 1. Mounting ring 5 and mounting ring 6 are both provided with mounting groove 9. Mounting ring 5 and mounting ring 6 are both provided with limiting grooves 10. The sliding ring 7 is located inside the two limiting grooves 10 and is interference-fitted with the two limiting grooves 10. The connecting ring 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding ring 7. Mounting groove 2 is provided on both the sliding ring 7 and the connecting ring 8. The sealing structure also includes a soft rubber sleeve 2, which is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting ring 8.

[0030] The soft rubber sleeve 2 is made of rubber, the sliding ring 7 and the connecting ring 8 are both made of deformable material, the cross-section of the mounting ring 1 5 and the mounting ring 2 6 are both "L" shaped, and the two ends of the nut body 1 are provided with arc chamfers 3.

[0031] Furthermore, when using this device, the nut body 1 has a threaded groove 4 inside for threaded connection with the bolt to achieve basic fastening function. The arc-shaped chamfers 3 set at both ends of the nut body 1 can reduce sharp friction with the connecting parts or other components during installation and avoid scratching the connecting surface. On the other hand, it also helps the nut to be screwed in and positioned smoothly.

[0032] Mounting ring 5 and mounting ring 6 are both fixedly connected to the top of the nut body 1. Both have an "L" shaped cross-section, which provides stable support and positioning for the installation of subsequent components. The sliding ring 7 is located inside the two limiting grooves 10 and is interference-fitted with the two limiting grooves 10. This interference fit gives the sliding ring 7 a certain friction force in the limiting grooves 10, which can ensure that the sliding ring 7 can slide when subjected to a certain external force, and can maintain a relatively stable position when not subjected to external force or when the external force is small.

[0033] After the nut body 1 is connected to the bolt and tightened, if it is necessary to enhance the sealing effect, first put the soft rubber sleeve 2 on the bolt. Then, the sliding ring 7 can be slid in the limiting groove 10 by external force, which will drive the connecting ring 8 and the soft rubber sleeve 2 to move together. During the movement, the soft rubber sleeve 2 will gradually fit with the nut body 1, so that the end of the soft rubber sleeve 2 away from the connecting ring 8 bends back and fits with the bolt surface, filling any gaps that may exist, thereby achieving a good sealing effect. At the same time, when the nut body 1 becomes loose, because the soft rubber sleeve 2 will be in a bent state and fit tightly with the bolt surface, the soft rubber sleeve 2 will gradually tighten, thereby blocking the nut body 1 and ensuring the stability and reliability of the seal.

[0034] When this high-strength heavy-duty hexagonal nut is loose, the soft rubber sleeve 2 is in a bent state and closely fits the bolt surface. When the nut body 1 tends to loosen, the soft rubber sleeve 2 will gradually tighten, forming a blocking effect on the nut body 1 and filling any gaps that may exist, ensuring the sealing of the connection part, meeting the requirements of high-sealing connection occasions, and thus improving the safety and stability of the connection.

[0035] Structural Description: Nut Body 1: The basic structure of a high-strength heavy-duty hexagonal nut, with internal threaded grooves 4 for threaded connection with bolts to achieve fastening, and rounded chamfers 3 at both ends to reduce installation friction and facilitate screwing in and positioning;

[0036] Arc-shaped chamfer 3: Located at both ends of the nut body 1, it reduces sharp friction with the connecting parts during installation, avoids scratching the connecting surface, and at the same time assists the nut to be screwed in and positioned smoothly;

[0037] Threaded groove 4: It is formed inside the nut body 1 and mates with the external thread of the bolt to realize the threaded connection between the nut and the bolt and complete the fastening function;

[0038] Mounting ring 5: It is fixedly connected to the top of the nut body 1, with an "L" shaped cross section. It has a mounting groove 9 and a limiting groove 10 to provide mounting support and positioning for components such as the sliding ring 7.

[0039] Mounting ring 2 6: It is fixedly connected to the top of the nut body 1 and has the same structure as mounting ring 1 5. The cross section is "L" shaped and has mounting groove 1 9 and limiting groove 10. It works with mounting ring 1 5 to support sliding ring 7.

[0040] Mounting slot 9: It is formed on mounting ring 5 and mounting ring 6. Its specific purpose is unclear, but it may be used to assist in the installation of other components.

[0041] Limiting groove 10: It is formed inside mounting ring 1 5 and mounting ring 2 6 to accommodate sliding ring 7, and is interference fit with sliding ring 7 to provide friction to limit its free movement;

[0042] Sliding ring 7: Located inside the two limiting grooves 10, it is interference-fitted with the limiting grooves 10 and can slide under external force. The material has deformable characteristics, and the top is fixedly connected to the connecting ring 8.

[0043] Connecting ring 8: It is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding ring 7. The material has deformable properties. The top is fixedly connected to the soft rubber sleeve 2. The soft rubber sleeve 2 moves with the sliding ring 7.

[0044] Mounting slot 2 11: It is formed on the sliding ring 7 and the connecting ring 8. Its specific purpose is unclear. It may be used to assist in the installation of the soft rubber sleeve 2 or to realize its function.

[0045] Soft rubber sleeve 2: It is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting ring 8 and is made of rubber. It fits against the nut body 1 and bolt surface through the movement of the sliding ring 7 and the connecting ring 8, filling the gaps to achieve a seal. At the same time, it tightens and blocks the nut when it loosens.

[0046] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
