Here, the diameter reduction of the spiral body 30 will be described. When the rear end portion 32 of the spiral body 30 is rotated so as to be parallel to the front end portion 31, a torque in the slack direction is generated at the rear end portion 32, and the spirally formed wire rod is moved inward. Since the spiral body 30 is deformed to be narrowed, the entire diameter of the spiral body 30 is reduced. The outer diameter of the spiral body 30 is formed larger than the inner diameter of the screw hole 4, and can be screwed into the screw hole 4 by reducing the diameter. The reduced inner diameter of the spiral body 30 is of a size that can be externally fitted to the rear portion 22 of the set screw 20.

[Loosening prevention action] In the attaching tool detaching step, by detaching the attaching tool 50 from the spiral body 30, the parallel state of both end portions 31 and 32 of the spiral body 30 is released, and the elastic force of the spiral body 30 causes the entire spiral body 30 to be released. Expands.
As a result, the entire spiral body 30 is pressed against the inner peripheral surface of the screw hole 4, and the frictional force between the outer peripheral surface of the spiral body 30 and the inner peripheral surface of the screw hole 4 is increased. Rotation is prevented. That is, loosening of the set screw 20 with which the spiral body 30 is engaged is prevented.

Even if the set screw 20 is not prevented from being loosened by the loosening prevention action and the set screw 20 rotates in the loosening direction, as shown in FIG. 3D, the set screw 20 rotates. By this, torque in the slack direction is generated at the front end portion 31 of the spiral body 30, and the front end portion 31 rotates ahead of the rear end portion 32 in which no torque is generated in the slack direction, and the front end of the spirally formed wire rod is formed. Since the portion 31 is deformed so as to expand outward, the spiral body 30 tries to expand the diameter in the screw hole 4. As a result, the spiral body 30 is pressed against the inner peripheral surface of the screw hole 4 with a high pressure, and the outer peripheral surface of the spiral body 30 and the screw hole 4 are pressed.
Since the frictional force between the inner peripheral surface of the
Slack of 0 is surely prevented.

An example of the preferred embodiment of the present invention has been described above, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and design changes can be appropriately made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. For example, as the spiral body 30, a wire rod having a rhombic cross-section may be formed in a spiral shape, and an existing helisert that uses a groove formed on the inner peripheral surface thereof as a female screw may be used.
In this configuration, since the groove formed on the outer peripheral surface of the helisert is screwed into the female screw of the screw hole 4 as a male screw, the frictional force between the outer peripheral surface of the helisert and the inner peripheral surface of the screw hole 4 is increased. The slack of the set screw 20 can be prevented more reliably. Further, the number of turns of the spiral body 30 is not limited, and it is preferable to appropriately set the number of turns in accordance with the sizes of the set screw 20 and the screw hole 4. Further, the front end portion 3 of the spiral body 30 can be fitted without externally fitting the spiral body 30 on the set screw 20.
1 may be engaged with the rear end surface 24 of the bolt 20 and the spiral body 30 may be provided behind the set screw 20. Also, the spiral body 30
The method for engaging the front end portion 31 of the above with the set screw 20 may be a joining method such as welding and is not limited. In addition, as a method of integrally rotating the set screw 20 and the spiral body 30 in the screwing step, for example, the tip portion 51 of the mounting tool 50 and the mounting hole portion 26 of the set screw 20 have a circular cross section, and the mounting tool 50 is stopped. The engaging tool 50 is engaged with the both ends 31, 32 of the spiral body 30 without engaging with the screw 20, and the torque of the attaching tool 50 is stopped.
The set screw 20 and the spiral body 30 may be integrally rotated by transmitting them to the set screw 20 via the front end portion 31 of the spiral body 30 engaged with the engagement groove 27. Further, in the spiral diameter reducing step, when the mounting tool 50 is pushed toward the set screw 20 while twisting in the loosening direction of the set screw 20, the rotation of the set screw 20 can be locked by the hand of the worker. For example, it is not necessary to engage the mounting auxiliary tool 60 with the set screw 20.

According to the slack preventing structure and the slack preventing method of the present invention, when the set screw rotates in the screw hole, the slack direction is applied to one end of the spiral body screwed into the screw hole. When the torque is generated to try to expand the diameter, the spiral body is pressed against the inner peripheral surface of the screw hole, and the frictional force prevents the spiral body from rotating, preventing the set screw engaged with the spiral body from loosening. Thus, the set screw can be securely fixed in the screw hole. Further, in the configuration in which the outer diameter of the spiral body made of elastically deformable wire is formed larger than the inner diameter of the screw hole,
By reducing the diameter, the spiral body screwed into the screw hole is always in pressure contact with the inner peripheral surface of the screw hole, so that the rotation of the spiral body can be reliably prevented. Further, by generating a torque in the slack direction at the other end of the spiral body, it is possible to reduce the diameter of the entire spiral body and easily screw the spiral body into the screw hole. This is effective when the outer diameter of the spiral body is larger than the inner diameter of the screw hole. Further, in the configuration in which the spiral body is fitted onto a part of the bolt, the entire length in the axial direction of the set screw and the spiral body screwed into the screw hole can be shortened.
