Description

Triple redundant shear bolt

The present invention relates to fastening piece, particularly the reliable fastening piece of those locking characteristics.

In voyage control system system was used, the phenomenon of losing a nut and having lost bolt can not be allowed.Therefore, generally all hole near the thread head place on bolt, slot on the nut, hole, groove align the back and insert cotter pin, so that prevent screw cap-falling.

Forgotten cottering in the maintenance work and can cause and jeopardize safe accident, therefore, used that the bolt of self-supplying capacity is arranged is well-known.These bolts all have a spring bullet of axially installing to lean formpiston, and the pattern plug affacts on the ball, make ball protrude bolt dignity (box spanner of thinking (sears) with in repute wishing is closely similar).When the pattern plug was depressed, in the radially retraction dignity of ball, therefore, bolt can enter and pass the eyelet with close tolerance, as the hole in the controlling rod end fitting; When the pattern plug loosened, ball side relative with bolt head in this assembling protruded body of bolt surface, and like this, behind screw cap-falling, ball can also stop bolt to skid off from bolt hole., hold the desired hollow bolt body of pattern plug and make bolt be not easy to check, also be corroded easily, especially such under salt mist environment.

An object of the present invention is to provide one self-supplying capacity rather than hollow bolt are arranged.

According to the present invention, one is equipped with radially, and the bolt of spring bullet top clamp and internal diameter are provided with the nut of pallet, and pallet and clamp cooperate, and therefore, nut can not take off from bolt.Also doing on the nut has groove, so that by the cotter pin hold-doun nut of the hole on the bolt, like this, coming off of nut further is suppressed.Last nut gets loose and loses, and the clamp on the bolt can also stop that bolt has the close tolerance hole of (cooperating as rod end) from one and come off out.

Other purpose of the present invention, characteristics and advantage can be clear and definite from describe below.

Fig. 1 is the side view of bolt of the present invention.

Fig. 2 is the bolt section of 2-2 line intercepting from Fig. 1, and comprises nut.

Fig. 3 is three orthoprojection figure of bolt clamp of the present invention.

Figure 1 shows that bolt 10 of the present invention, it comprises head 12 and key 14.The screw thread of getting on the bus and cooperating away from the part 16 of the key of head 12 with nut.Near 18 places, key 14 tops, a hole 20 perpendicular to the bolt axis is arranged, it is used for construction opening pin 21.Having another hole 22 on the key 14 near helical thread portion 16 places beyond the bolt head, hole 22 is perpendicular to the bolt shaft axis, but preferably parallel with cotter-pin hold 20.

Hole 22 has been clearly shown that in Fig. 2, in its displayed map 1 along the bolt 10 of 2-2 line intercepting and the section of nut with matching 24.Hole 22 is stepped shaft so that lay and support clamp 26.Clamp 26 comprises the

top

27,28 and the end 29.28 have first cross dimension of 30 parts that are equivalent to hole 22, and the end 29 then has pin greater than first size and be equivalent to second cross dimension of 34 parts in hole 22.The detail shape of clamp 26 is seen Fig. 3.The intersection of 30 and 34 parts in hole is represented " ladder " that above be mentioned to, so that clamp can the top previously in 34 parts of patchhole 22, till being inserted into the end 29 and step always and contacting, at this moment, protrude beyond the bolt surface at the top of clamp.

Spring 36 is contained at the bottom of the 30 part clamps in hole 29 back, so that it radially protrudes beyond the body of bolt surface clamp top 27 to the ends 29 pressurization, spring 36 usefulness stick harnesses make it to stay in the body of bolt 34 parts, and stick harness 38 is fixed in the hole 22 to be press-fitted to merge, and subtend is in the direction place of clamp head 28.

Three views of 26 of clamp shown in Figure 3, in end elevation (A), the head 28 of the clamp found out clearly 26 is square cross section basically, so the part 30 in hole 22 is also for square so that hold clamp head 28 and prevent its rotation.In first side view (B), the two relative side on clamp top 27 is complete arc significantly, and it is corresponding with Fig. 2.In second side view (c), this figure is perpendicular to the projection of the axial direction in bolt axis and hole 22, and the surface, upper and lower that shows clamp top 27 among the figure is simple flat surface, and surperficial consistent with square clamp head.

Fig. 1 shows the ssembly drawing of an interlinking lever end device 40, clamping plate 41 and bolt 10.This figure shows that when bolt 10 begins to insert interlinking lever end device 40 available hand is installed in the sub-dump bolt body; When continuing to insert, clamp is subjected to the constraint of auto levelizer internal surface 42, continues to stay in the body of bolt; After bolt 10 complete inletting device 40, clamp is not in this device, because the thrust of spring 36 is protruded beyond the body of bolt surface clamp top.And the upper plane on clamp top 27 is stayed within this device bolt.Importantly clamp head and the suitable hole portion that uses (being square in this example) should form the shape that can prevent that clamp from rotating in bolt.To its top plan contact of this requirement for restriction of clamp and be close to by on card portion surface (being a device in this example), just in case nut has been lost, extended clamp will become a stopper, cover capable it stop function.

As can see from Figure 2, bolt head is provided with the circular arc pallet 44 of six five equilibriums in the face of the internal diameter of part 43 on the nut 24, and its shape is equivalent to the profile of clamp head, its size be convenient to hold protrusion elongation the top of dop.Circular surface should be avoided in the clamp top, so that during upper cap nut, pallet can be stretched into and throw off in the clamp top freely.Not when nut applies moment of torsion (warping force), the clamp of extension will stop nut to unload to move back.Be provided with groove commonly used (slit) 48 in nut 46 parts away from bolt head, groove alignment hole 20, cotter pin 21 is passed hole 20 and groove as preventing that nut from recessing the additional device of bolt.Pallet is parallel with the nut groove arranges that to normal incidence the clamp that spring is being promoted can all put in the pallet on the one hand, makes cotter pin hole just in time bring into play barrier effect on the other hand.Best situation is just in case cotter pin is lost, and clamp also just in time is in the position that produces barrier effect.Just in case when clamp was killed, also preferably clamp was in the pallet under elongation state, is between two pallets and should not be under the confined state.

So " retrocession " of bolt of the present invention is embodied in cotter pin and prevents that nut from getting loose; Clamp prevents that nut from getting loose; And if nut gets loose and lose, clamp can be bolt the ability that self stops is provided.

According to the principle that this present invention sets forth, the designer can obtain many improvement and different schemes. For example, although boring has explained and diagram to stairstepping, an end plug in isometrical hole that had better the body of bolt advances a sleeve to be made and forms ladder and come economically; Equally, the installation of the discrete part such as clamp, spring and plunger may preferably be used one with the load module of tubular insert. In addition, other beyond square can be used for preventing that the shape that clamp rotates from also can adopt. Equally, to the greatest extent The pipe front was once mentioned this invention and was applicable to application aspect, close tolerance hole, but will be appreciated that, because the cooperation of the superprecision size between some body of bolt and device, the circular clamp head that rotates with spherical clamp top and permission also is feasible. The composition of clamp shape changes with application target is different, therefore should not treat as a constraint of this invention.

Compare with the longitudinal hole of prior art, this invention have higher resistance to corrosion with hole 22 body of bolt quadrature, particularly because after installing, nut 24 hides hole 22 fully.
