Description

本発明は、雄ねじ体と螺合する雌ねじ体に関する。   The present invention relates to a female screw body that is screwed with a male screw body.

締結構造の一つとして、ボルト等の所謂雄ねじ体と、ナット等の所謂雌ねじ体を用いるものが存在する。このねじ体による締結構造に関して、一つの雄ねじ体に対して、リード角及び/又はリード方向が相異なる二種類の螺旋溝(例えば右雄ねじ部と左雄ねじ部)を形成し、この二種類の螺旋溝に対して、ダブルナットのごとく、二種類の雌ねじ体(例えば右雌ねじ体と左雌ねじ体)を別々に螺合させるものがある。何らかの係合手段により、二種類の雌ねじ体の相対回転を抑止すれば、リード角及び/又はリード方向が相異なることによる軸方向干渉作用又は軸方向離反作用により、雄ねじとの間で機械的な緩み止め効果を提供できる(特許文献1参照)。   As one of the fastening structures, there is one using a so-called male screw body such as a bolt and a so-called female screw body such as a nut. With respect to the fastening structure using this screw body, two types of spiral grooves (for example, a right male screw portion and a left male screw portion) having different lead angles and / or lead directions are formed on one male screw body, and the two types of spirals are formed. Some double threaded bodies (for example, a right female threaded body and a left female threaded body) are separately screwed into the groove, like a double nut. If the relative rotation of the two types of female screw bodies is suppressed by some engagement means, mechanical interference with the male screw is caused by the axial interference action or the axial separation action caused by different lead angles and / or lead directions. A locking effect can be provided (see Patent Document 1).

更に応用として、単一の雌ねじ体に対して、リード角及び/又はリード方向が相異なる二種類の雌ねじ条を形成することも行われている(特許文献1の請求項15乃至請求項19、図41乃至図43等参照)。この場合、締結方向に限定した雌ねじ体と雄ねじ体の相対回転を許容するために、一方の雌ねじ条を板状部材で構成して弾性変形可能にしている。   Further, as an application, two types of female screw strips having different lead angles and / or lead directions are formed on a single female screw body (claims 15 to 19 of patent document 1, (See FIGS. 41 to 43). In this case, in order to allow relative rotation of the female screw body and the male screw body limited to the fastening direction, one female screw strip is formed of a plate-like member so as to be elastically deformable.

以下、本発明の実施の形態を、添付図面を参照して説明する。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

図1は、本実施形態に係る雄ねじ体100が用いられる締結構造1の正面図である。また、図2(A)は、同締結構造1の正面断面図であり、図2(B)は側面断面図である。図3は、雌ねじ体100の正面断面図等であり、図4は側面断面図等である。図5は雄ねじ体10の正面の拡大図等であり、図6は側面の拡大図等である。これらの図に示すように、締結構造1は、雌ねじ体100を雄ねじ体10に締結するものである。雌ねじ体100は、筒状部材106と逆回転防止部材160によって、雄ねじ体10の緩み方向の相対回転を防止する。   FIG. 1 is a front view of a fastening structure 1 in which a male screw body 100 according to the present embodiment is used. 2A is a front sectional view of the fastening structure 1 and FIG. 2B is a side sectional view. 3 is a front sectional view of the female screw body 100, and FIG. 4 is a side sectional view. FIG. 5 is an enlarged view of the front side of the male screw body 10, and FIG. 6 is an enlarged view of the side surface. As shown in these drawings, the fastening structure 1 fastens the female screw body 100 to the male screw body 10. The female screw body 100 prevents relative rotation in the loosening direction of the male screw body 10 by the tubular member 106 and the reverse rotation preventing member 160.

図5及び図6に示すように、雄ねじ体10は、基部側から軸端に向かって、雄ねじ螺旋構造が形成された雄ねじ部13が設けられる。本実施形態では、この雄ねじ部13に、対応した右ねじとして成る雌ねじ状の螺旋条を螺合可能に構成される右ねじと成る第一雄ねじ螺旋構造14と、対応した左ねじとして成る雌ねじ状の螺旋条を螺合可能に構成される左ねじと成る第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15との二種類の雄ねじ螺旋構造が同一領域上に重複して形成される。   As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the male screw body 10 is provided with a male screw portion 13 in which a male screw spiral structure is formed from the base side toward the shaft end. In the present embodiment, a first male screw spiral structure 14 serving as a right screw configured to be capable of screwing a female thread-like spiral strip serving as a corresponding right screw into the male screw portion 13, and a female screw shape serving as a corresponding left screw. Two types of male screw spiral structures, the second male screw spiral structure 15 serving as a left-hand thread that can be screwed together, are formed on the same region.

雄ねじ部13には、図5(C)に示すように、軸心(ねじ軸)Cに垂直となる面方向において周方向に延びる略三日月状のねじ山13aが、雄ねじ部13の一方側(図の左側)及び他方側(図の右側)に交互に設けられる。ねじ山13aをこのように構成することで、右回りに旋回する螺旋構造(図5(A)の矢印14参照)及び左回りに旋回する螺旋構造(図5(A)の矢印15参照)の二種類の螺旋溝を、ねじ山13aの間に形成することが出来る。   As shown in FIG. 5C, the male screw portion 13 has a substantially crescent-shaped thread 13 a extending in the circumferential direction in a plane direction perpendicular to the axis (screw shaft) C, on one side of the male screw portion 13 ( They are provided alternately on the left side of the figure and the other side (right side of the figure). By configuring the screw thread 13a in this way, a spiral structure that turns clockwise (see arrow 14 in FIG. 5A) and a spiral structure that turns counterclockwise (see arrow 15 in FIG. 5A). Two types of spiral grooves can be formed between the threads 13a.

本実施形態では、このようにすることで、第一雄ねじ螺旋構造14及び第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15の二種類の雄ねじ螺旋構造を、雄ねじ部13に形成している。従って、雄ねじ部13は、右ねじ及び左ねじの何れの雌ねじ体とも螺合することが可能となる。なお、二種類の雄ねじ螺旋構造が形成された雄ねじ部13の詳細については、本願の発明者に係る特許第4663813号公報を参照されたい。   In the present embodiment, two types of male screw spiral structures, the first male screw spiral structure 14 and the second male screw spiral structure 15, are formed in the male screw portion 13 by doing in this way. Accordingly, the male screw portion 13 can be screwed with any of the right and left screw female screw bodies. For details of the male screw portion 13 in which two types of male screw spiral structures are formed, see Japanese Patent No. 4666313 related to the inventor of the present application.

図3及び図4に示すように、雌ねじ体100は、筒状部材106と逆回転防止部材160を有する。筒状部材106は、所謂六角ナット状をなしており、中心に貫通孔部106aを有する。勿論、雌ねじ体100の概形は、六角ナット状に限らず、円筒状、周面にローレットを有する形状、四角形状、星型形状など任意に適宜設定可能である。貫通孔部106aには、右ねじとしての第一雌ねじ螺旋構造114が形成される。即ち、筒状部材106の第一雌ねじ螺旋構造114は、雄ねじ体10の雄ねじ部13における第一雄ねじ螺旋構造14と螺合する。   As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the female screw body 100 includes a cylindrical member 106 and a reverse rotation preventing member 160. The tubular member 106 has a so-called hexagonal nut shape and has a through-hole portion 106a at the center. Of course, the general shape of the female screw body 100 is not limited to the hexagonal nut shape, and can be arbitrarily set as appropriate, such as a cylindrical shape, a shape having a knurled circumferential surface, a square shape, and a star shape. A first female screw spiral structure 114 as a right-hand thread is formed in the through-hole portion 106a. That is, the first female screw spiral structure 114 of the tubular member 106 is screwed with the first male screw spiral structure 14 in the male screw portion 13 of the male screw body 10.

筒状部材106は受部110を有する。受部110は、筒状部材106の軸方向端面に形成されており、回転軸に対して略垂直(必ずしも垂直である必要は無い)となる当接面110aを有する。この当接面110aは、ここではリング状の平面となっており、逆回転防止部材160の座面部162と当接して、該逆回転防止部材160を軸方向に受け止める。なお、このリング状の当接面110aは、軸方向端面に凹ませるように形成しても良い。   The cylindrical member 106 has a receiving part 110. The receiving part 110 is formed on the end surface in the axial direction of the cylindrical member 106, and has a contact surface 110a that is substantially perpendicular to the rotation axis (not necessarily perpendicular). The abutment surface 110a is a ring-shaped plane here, abuts against the seat surface portion 162 of the reverse rotation prevention member 160, and receives the reverse rotation prevention member 160 in the axial direction. The ring-shaped contact surface 110a may be formed so as to be recessed in the axial end surface.

更に、受部110は、第一周方向係合部120と第一軸方向係合部130を有する。図3(B)に示すように、第一周方向係合部120は、ここでは当接面110aに対して軸方向に突出する突起となっており、周方向に180度の間隔で二個形成される。勿論、この第一周方向係合部120は、必須ではないが、周方向に複数カ所分散して設けることも出来る。この第一周方向係合部120は、逆回転防止部材160の第二周方向係合部162aと嵌合して周方向に係合し、周方向の相対回転を規制する。なお、ここでは第一周方向係合部120を当接面110aに対して突出させるようにしたが、窪ませることもできる。また、第一周方向係合部120を軸方向に凸状又は凹状とすることもできる。例えばその事例として、当接面110a自体に、エンボス加工やローレット加工、放射状の溝等の凹凸を形成することも好ましい。   Furthermore, the receiving part 110 has a first circumferential engagement part 120 and a first axial engagement part 130. As shown in FIG. 3B, the first circumferential engagement portion 120 is a protrusion that protrudes in the axial direction with respect to the contact surface 110a in this case, and is provided at two intervals of 180 degrees in the circumferential direction. It is formed. Of course, the first circumferential engagement portion 120 is not essential, but a plurality of locations can be provided in the circumferential direction. The first circumferential engagement portion 120 is engaged with the second circumferential engagement portion 162a of the reverse rotation preventing member 160 and engaged in the circumferential direction, thereby restricting relative rotation in the circumferential direction. In addition, although the 1st circumferential direction engaging part 120 was made to protrude with respect to the contact surface 110a here, it can also be depressed. Moreover, the 1st circumferential direction engaging part 120 can also be made into convex shape or a concave shape to an axial direction. For example, as an example, it is also preferable to form irregularities such as embossing, knurling, radial grooves, etc. on the contact surface 110a itself.

図4(B)に示すように、第一軸方向係合部130は、当接面110aに対して微小の隙間を有する状態で対向配置される部材である。この隙間には、逆回転防止部材160の板状の座面部162(第二軸方向係合部162b)が介在するように配設される。当接面110aと第一軸方向係合部130は、座面部162を挟持する構造となり、この第一軸方向係合部130が第二周方向係合部162bと軸方向に係合する。なお、第一軸方向係合部130は、図4(D)に示すように、組立前においては、受部110に対して略垂直に延びる周壁状部となる。この周壁状部は、逆回転防止部材160の座面部162の外周縁に沿うようにして周方向に立設される。組立時には、逆回転防止部材160を配設してから、点線で示すように、第一軸方向係合部130を半径方向内側に屈曲させて、互いにカシメることで両者を軸方向に締結する。なお、第一軸方向係合部130は、ここでは周方向に90°程度の範囲となる周壁状部を、二箇所に設ける場合を例示しているが、例えば図11に示すように、全周(360°)に亘って配置することも好ましく、また、全周に亘って断続的な周壁状部を配置することも好ましい。   As shown in FIG. 4B, the first axial engagement portion 130 is a member that is disposed to face the contact surface 110a with a minute gap. In this gap, a plate-like seating surface portion 162 (second axial direction engaging portion 162b) of the reverse rotation preventing member 160 is disposed. The contact surface 110a and the first axial engagement portion 130 are configured to sandwich the seat surface portion 162, and the first axial engagement portion 130 engages with the second circumferential engagement portion 162b in the axial direction. As shown in FIG. 4D, the first axial engagement portion 130 is a peripheral wall-like portion that extends substantially perpendicular to the receiving portion 110 before assembly. The peripheral wall-like portion is erected in the circumferential direction along the outer peripheral edge of the seat surface portion 162 of the reverse rotation preventing member 160. At the time of assembly, after the reverse rotation preventing member 160 is disposed, the first axial engagement portion 130 is bent inward in the radial direction as shown by a dotted line, and the two are tightened in the axial direction by crimping each other. . Here, the first axial engagement portion 130 is exemplified here in the case where the peripheral wall-shaped portion having a range of about 90 ° in the circumferential direction is provided at two locations. However, as shown in FIG. It is also preferable to arrange over the circumference (360 °), and it is also preferable to arrange intermittent peripheral wall portions over the entire circumference.

次に逆回転防止部材160について説明する。逆回転防止部材160は、座面部162と、立設部165と、突出部168を有する。   Next, the reverse rotation preventing member 160 will be described. The reverse rotation preventing member 160 includes a seat surface portion 162, a standing portion 165, and a protruding portion 168.

図4(A)に示すように、座面部162は、受部110の当接面110aに当接するリング状の板部であり、その一部及び/又は全部によって第二軸方向係合部162bを構成する。この第二軸方向係合部162bは、第一軸方向係合部130に挟持される(軸方向に重なる)ことで互いに軸方向に係合する。座面部162は、受部110の当接面110aに対して、好ましくは周方向に180°以上、例えば360°の角度範囲で当接させることで、姿勢を安定させると共に、第一軸方向係合部130との係合状態が保持されるように構成されている。   As shown in FIG. 4A, the seat surface portion 162 is a ring-shaped plate portion that abuts against the abutment surface 110a of the receiving portion 110, and the second axial engagement portion 162b is partly and / or entirely. Configure. The second axial engagement portions 162b are engaged with each other in the axial direction by being sandwiched (overlapping in the axial direction) by the first axial engagement portion 130. The seat surface portion 162 is preferably brought into contact with the contact surface 110a of the receiving portion 110 in the circumferential direction at an angle range of 180 ° or more, for example, 360 °, thereby stabilizing the posture and the first axial direction engagement. The engagement state with the joint portion 130 is maintained.

座面部162の外周縁には、第二周方向係合部162aが形成される。この第二周方向係合部162aは、座面部162の外周縁の半径方向内側に変位する凹状の切欠きを有し、受部110の第一周方向係合部120と周方向に係合する。なお、ここでは半径方向内側に凹となる切欠きを例示しているが、半径方向外側に凸となる突起でもよく、軸方向に凸状又は凹状であってもよく、また必須でもない。第二周方向係合部162aが軸方向に凸状又は凹状となる事例として、座面部162における当接面110aと対向する平面に、エンボス加工やローレット加工、放射状の溝等の凹凸を形成することも好ましい。   A second circumferential engagement portion 162 a is formed on the outer peripheral edge of the seat surface portion 162. The second circumferential engagement portion 162a has a concave notch that is displaced radially inward of the outer peripheral edge of the seat surface portion 162, and engages with the first circumferential engagement portion 120 of the receiving portion 110 in the circumferential direction. To do. In addition, although the notch which becomes a concave inside radial direction is illustrated here, the protrusion which becomes convex on the radial direction outer side may be sufficient, and it may be convex or concave shape on an axial direction, and is not essential. As an example in which the second circumferential engagement portion 162a is convex or concave in the axial direction, irregularities such as embossing, knurling, radial grooves, etc. are formed on the plane facing the contact surface 110a in the seating surface portion 162. It is also preferable.

図4(B)に示すように、立設部165は、座面部162から軸方向に延在する略筒状部である。軸方向の延在距離Jは、周方向に沿って次第に長くなる(又は短くなる)。結果、立設部165における座面部162と反対側の端縁165aは、座面部162に対して傾斜しており、この傾斜角度αが、第二雄ねじ螺旋構造115のリード角と対応して設定される。即ち、端縁165aは、周方向に約360度の範囲で延設された螺旋となる。立設部165には、軸方向の切欠き165bを形成してもよく、形成した場合には、積極的に半径方向の剛性を低下させることで、立設部165が半径方向外側に弾性変形し易くなるように出来る。なお、この切欠き165bは、ここでは周方向の二か所に形成しているが、一か所でも良く、三か所以上に形成してもよく、また0カ所としてもよい。   As shown in FIG. 4B, the standing portion 165 is a substantially cylindrical portion extending in the axial direction from the seat surface portion 162. The extending distance J in the axial direction becomes gradually longer (or shorter) along the circumferential direction. As a result, the end edge 165a of the standing portion 165 opposite to the seat surface portion 162 is inclined with respect to the seat surface portion 162, and this inclination angle α is set corresponding to the lead angle of the second male screw spiral structure 115. Is done. That is, the end edge 165a is a spiral extending in the range of about 360 degrees in the circumferential direction. The standing portion 165 may be formed with an axial notch 165b. In this case, the standing portion 165 is elastically deformed radially outward by actively reducing the rigidity in the radial direction. Can be made easier. The notches 165b are formed at two places in the circumferential direction here, but may be formed at one place, at three places or more, or at zero places.

突出部168は、立設部165の端縁165aから半径方向内側に突出する板部となっている。図3(A)に示すように、この突出部168は、立設部165の切欠き165bが延長されること、又は、突出部168の端部から半径方向外向きに切り欠かれて成る凹状のスリットによって、周方向の二か所で分断された、約180°以下の角度範囲となる部分円弧状の二つの板部で構成される。各突出部168の半径方向内側が突端となり、これにより複数の係合縁168aが構成される。結果として、各係合縁168aは、周方向に180°以下の角度範囲の部分円弧となり、雄ねじ体10の外周と接触する。このように、各係合縁168aの周方向距離を180°以下にすることで、半径方向外側に変位しやすくなる。なお、係合縁168aの直径は、雄ねじ体10の第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15の谷径とほぼ一致させている。   The protruding portion 168 is a plate portion that protrudes radially inward from the end edge 165 a of the standing portion 165. As shown in FIG. 3A, the projecting portion 168 has a concave shape formed by extending the notch 165b of the standing portion 165 or by notching the end of the projecting portion 168 radially outward. This is composed of two partial arc-shaped plate portions having an angle range of about 180 ° or less divided by two slits in the circumferential direction. A radially inner side of each projecting portion 168 becomes a projecting end, thereby forming a plurality of engaging edges 168a. As a result, each engagement edge 168a becomes a partial arc having an angle range of 180 ° or less in the circumferential direction, and comes into contact with the outer periphery of the male screw body 10. As described above, by setting the circumferential distance of each engagement edge 168a to 180 ° or less, it becomes easy to displace radially outward. The diameter of the engagement edge 168a is substantially matched with the root diameter of the second male screw spiral structure 15 of the male screw body 10.

また突出部168は、半径方向に沿って、その内側が座面部162の成す仮想平面から離れる方向に傾斜している。この半径方向の傾斜角度βは、雄ねじ体10の第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15のねじ山13aのフランク角と殆ど一致させており、ここでは約30度に設定している。また、係合縁168aは、立設部165の端縁165aの傾斜角αに伴って、リード角αとなる左ねじの第二雌ねじ螺旋構造115が形成される。この係合縁168aは、雄ねじ体10の雄ねじ部13における第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15と螺合する。   Further, the protruding portion 168 is inclined in the direction away from the virtual plane formed by the seating surface portion 162 along the radial direction. The inclination angle β in the radial direction almost coincides with the flank angle of the thread 13a of the second male screw spiral structure 15 of the male screw body 10, and is set to about 30 degrees here. Further, the engagement edge 168a is formed with a second female screw spiral structure 115 of a left-hand thread having a lead angle α in accordance with the inclination angle α of the end edge 165a of the standing portion 165. The engaging edge 168 a is screwed with the second male screw spiral structure 15 in the male screw portion 13 of the male screw body 10.

次に、この締結構造1の作用について説明する。   Next, the operation of the fastening structure 1 will be described.

図7(A)に示すように、雌ねじ体100の筒状部材106の第一雌ねじ螺旋構造114を、雄ねじ体10の第一雄ねじ螺旋構造14に螺合させて行くと、逆回転防止部材160の係合縁168aが、雄ねじ体10の第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15と接触する。しかし、雌ねじ体100を、筒状部材106の第一雌ねじ螺旋構造114を基準として螺合させているので、筒状部材106を螺進させて行くと、係合縁168aと第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15のねじ山が干渉状態に遷移する[s3]。   As shown in FIG. 7A, when the first female screw spiral structure 114 of the cylindrical member 106 of the female screw body 100 is screwed into the first male screw spiral structure 14 of the male screw body 10, the reverse rotation preventing member 160. The engaging edge 168a of the male screw body 10 contacts the second male screw spiral structure 15 of the male screw body 10. However, since the female screw body 100 is screwed with the first female screw spiral structure 114 of the cylindrical member 106 as a reference, when the cylindrical member 106 is screwed, the engaging edge 168a and the second male screw helical structure are 15 threads transition to the interference state [s3].

この状態で、更に筒状部材106を90°回転させて、第一雌ねじ螺旋構造114を第一雄ねじ螺旋構造14に螺合させて行くと、図7(B)に示すように、筒状部材106は締結方向に1/4ピッチ進行し、逆回転防止部材160も、同方向に回転しながら、締結方向に強制的に進行する。このとき、係合縁168aは、座面部162から離れる方向に傾斜していることから、ねじ山13aのフランク面に沿って、当接面110aから離れる軸方向及び/又は半径方向外側に弾性変形して、第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15を[s4]乗り越えようとする。この際、好ましくは、立設部165が半径方向外側の剛性を高めておくことで、立設部165自体が外側に弾性変形する量は小さく又は略零に設定し、係合縁168aが立設部165に対して鈍角側へ弾性変形させることを優先させる。図7(A)の状態を基準として筒状部材106を180度(1/2ピッチ)回転させると、図7(C)に示すように、係合縁168aが、第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15の[s5]一つのねじ山13aを完全に乗り越えて、次の第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15に嵌合する。この動作を繰り返すことで、雌ねじ体10が180°回転する度に、係合部168aが第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15のねじ山13aを乗り越えていき、雌ねじ体100は雄ねじ体10に締結されて行く。   In this state, when the cylindrical member 106 is further rotated by 90 ° and the first female screw spiral structure 114 is screwed into the first male screw spiral structure 14, as shown in FIG. 106 advances by 1/4 pitch in the fastening direction, and the reverse rotation preventing member 160 forcibly advances in the fastening direction while rotating in the same direction. At this time, since the engagement edge 168a is inclined in the direction away from the seat surface portion 162, the engagement edge 168a is elastically deformed along the flank surface of the screw thread 13a in the axial direction and / or radially outward from the contact surface 110a. Then, [s4] tries to get over the second male screw spiral structure 15. At this time, it is preferable that the standing portion 165 has increased rigidity on the outer side in the radial direction so that the amount of elastic deformation of the standing portion 165 itself is set to be small or substantially zero, and the engagement edge 168a is raised. Prioritizing elastic deformation to the obtuse angle side with respect to the installation part 165 is given priority. When the cylindrical member 106 is rotated 180 degrees (1/2 pitch) with the state of FIG. 7A as a reference, the engagement edge 168a of the second male screw spiral structure 15 is formed as shown in FIG. [s5] One screw thread 13a is completely overcome and fitted into the next second male screw spiral structure 15. By repeating this operation, each time the female screw body 10 rotates 180 °, the engaging portion 168a gets over the thread 13a of the second male screw spiral structure 15, and the female screw body 100 is fastened to the male screw body 10. .

一方、図8を参照して、雌ねじ体100の筒状部材106が、雄ねじ体10の第一雄ねじ螺旋構造14に対して緩み方向に回転しようとする場合を考える。突出部168は、当接面110aの成す仮想平面に対して先端側(係合縁168a側)が乖離するように傾斜した形状を成しており、この傾斜は、第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15のねじ山13aのフランク面に対応するように設定され、好ましくは当接するように設定される。また、この突出部168の基端(立設部165の端縁165a)から先端(係合縁168a)までの長さは、ねじ山13aの頂部から谷底までの距離に対応して設定され、好ましくは当該距離と略一致するように設定される。そのため、雌ねじ体100の筒状部材10に緩め方向の相対回転を与えると、突出部168の傾斜面が、立設部165に対して、当接面110aの成す仮想平面に接近する方向(即ち、係合縁168aが当接面110aに接近する方向)に力を受けて弾性変形する。立設部165の半径方向外側への剛性を高めておくことにより、当該弾性変形に伴って、突出部168の基端から先端の仮想平面方向の距離(図8における水平方向距離)が長くなることから、係合縁168aがねじ山13aの谷部を狭窄するように作用し、その結果、当該緩め方向の相対回転を機械構造的に強固に防止できる。換言すると、逆回転防止部材160の係合縁168aが、第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15のねじ山13aの谷に食い込み、筒状部材106と逆回転防止部材160との進行のズレ若しくは相反によって相対回転を規制する。従って、雄ねじ体100は、緩み方向の相対回転ができない。逆回転防止部材160は、筒状部材106の第一雌ねじ螺旋構造114による一方向(締結方向)の雄ねじ体10との相対回転は許容し、その逆回転は確実に係止される。なお、雌ねじ体100において、突出部168の延設長さ即ち突出長さの設定や、立設部165の立設長さの設定、突出部168と立設部165の相対角度の設定等により、所定以上の緩め方向トルクを付与することによって突出部168を弾性変形させて、比較的容易に、雄ねじ体10から雌ねじ体100を取り外すことを可能とすることも出来る。   On the other hand, with reference to FIG. 8, consider a case where the cylindrical member 106 of the female screw body 100 is about to rotate in the loosening direction with respect to the first male screw spiral structure 14 of the male screw body 10. The protruding portion 168 has a shape that is inclined such that the tip side (engagement edge 168a side) is deviated from the virtual plane formed by the contact surface 110a. It is set so as to correspond to the flank surface of the screw thread 13a, and preferably set so as to abut. In addition, the length from the base end (end edge 165a of the standing portion 165) to the tip end (engagement edge 168a) of the projecting portion 168 is set corresponding to the distance from the top of the thread 13a to the valley bottom, Preferably, it is set so as to substantially match the distance. Therefore, when the cylindrical member 10 of the female screw body 100 is subjected to relative rotation in the loosening direction, the inclined surface of the projecting portion 168 approaches the virtual plane formed by the contact surface 110a with respect to the standing portion 165 (that is, The engagement edge 168a is elastically deformed by receiving a force in a direction in which the engagement edge 168a approaches the contact surface 110a. By increasing the rigidity of the standing portion 165 radially outward, the distance in the imaginary plane direction from the proximal end of the protruding portion 168 to the distal end (horizontal distance in FIG. 8) increases with the elastic deformation. Therefore, the engagement edge 168a acts to narrow the valley of the screw thread 13a, and as a result, the relative rotation in the loosening direction can be firmly prevented mechanically. In other words, the engagement edge 168a of the reverse rotation preventing member 160 bites into the valley of the thread 13a of the second male screw spiral structure 15, and the relative rotation is caused by the shift or reciprocal movement of the tubular member 106 and the reverse rotation preventing member 160. To regulate. Therefore, the male screw body 100 cannot be relatively rotated in the loosening direction. The reverse rotation preventing member 160 allows relative rotation with the male screw body 10 in one direction (fastening direction) by the first female screw spiral structure 114 of the cylindrical member 106, and the reverse rotation is securely locked. In the female screw body 100, the extension length of the protruding portion 168, that is, the protruding length, the setting of the standing length of the standing portion 165, the setting of the relative angle between the protruding portion 168 and the standing portion 165, etc. It is also possible to remove the female screw body 100 from the male screw body 10 relatively easily by elastically deforming the protruding portion 168 by applying a loosening direction torque of a predetermined value or more.

本実施形態の雌ねじ体100によれば、受部110の当接面110aを含む範囲において、軸に対する垂直方向の断面によって視た場合、この当接面110aの断面像が、周方向複数箇所に得られる状態及び/又は断面像が環状に得られる状態になる。従って、当接面110aによる逆回転防止部材160の保持姿勢が安定するので、組立を易しく行うことができ、更に、組立精度も向上させることができる。なお、本実施形態では、当接面110aの断面像が環状(リング状)になるので、最も安定した状態になるといえる。   According to the female screw body 100 of the present embodiment, in a range including the contact surface 110a of the receiving portion 110, when viewed from a cross section in a direction perpendicular to the axis, cross-sectional images of the contact surface 110a are displayed at a plurality of locations in the circumferential direction. The obtained state and / or the cross-sectional image is obtained in an annular shape. Therefore, since the holding posture of the reverse rotation preventing member 160 by the contact surface 110a is stabilized, the assembling can be easily performed and the assembling accuracy can be improved. In the present embodiment, since the cross-sectional image of the contact surface 110a has an annular shape (ring shape), it can be said that the most stable state is obtained.

更に本実施形態のように、筒状部材106の端面において、当接面110aを回転軸に対して垂直な平面にすると、プレス、切削、転造、圧造、成型、造形等によって筒状部材106を形成する際に、所謂ナットと同様に簡潔に量産できる。なお、当接面110aを軸直角方向に対して傾斜させて、この当接面110aを利用して係合縁168aのリード角やリード方向を設定した周方向のスロープ状に形成しようとすると、筒状部材106の製造コストが増大する。更に、スロープ状の当接面110aを含む範囲で、軸に対する垂直方向の断面によって視た場合、その断面像は周方向に一箇所しか得られない。これは、当接面110aによる逆回転防止部材160の保持姿勢が不安定であり、スロープに沿って逆回転防止部材160が周方向にスライドするような力が生じ易い。結局、筒状部材106と逆回転防止部材160を組み立てる際に、高い位置決め精度が要求されてしまう。   Further, as in the present embodiment, when the contact surface 110a is a plane perpendicular to the rotation axis at the end surface of the cylindrical member 106, the cylindrical member 106 is subjected to pressing, cutting, rolling, forging, molding, modeling, or the like. Can be produced in a simple manner like so-called nuts. If the contact surface 110a is inclined with respect to the direction perpendicular to the axis and the contact surface 110a is used to form a circumferential slope with the lead angle and lead direction of the engagement edge 168a set, The manufacturing cost of the cylindrical member 106 increases. Further, when viewed from a cross section perpendicular to the axis within a range including the slope-shaped contact surface 110a, only one cross-sectional image is obtained in the circumferential direction. This is because the holding posture of the reverse rotation preventing member 160 by the contact surface 110a is unstable, and a force that causes the reverse rotation preventing member 160 to slide in the circumferential direction along the slope is likely to occur. After all, when assembling the cylindrical member 106 and the reverse rotation preventing member 160, high positioning accuracy is required.

因みに本実施形態では、周方向に沿って軸方向の延在距離Jが次第に長くなる立設部165によって、第二雌ねじ螺旋構造115のリード方向及びリード角を設定している。この構造を採用すれば、例えば、逆回転防止部材160を板状部材を用いたプレス成型等によって量産することが可能となり、製造コストを飛躍的に低減できる。   Incidentally, in the present embodiment, the lead direction and lead angle of the second female screw spiral structure 115 are set by the standing portion 165 in which the axial extending distance J gradually increases along the circumferential direction. If this structure is adopted, for example, the reverse rotation preventing member 160 can be mass-produced by press molding using a plate-like member, and the manufacturing cost can be drastically reduced.

また本雌ねじ体100は、必須ではないが、筒状部材106側の第一周方向係合部120と、逆回転防止部材160側の第二周方向係合部162aによって、筒状部材106と逆回転防止部材160を周方向に固定可能としている。結果、逆回転防止部材160の係合縁168aを干渉させながら、強制的に締結させる際にも、筒状部材106と逆回転防止部材160の相対回転を規制できる。   Further, the internal thread body 100 is not essential, but the first circumferential direction engaging portion 120 on the cylindrical member 106 side and the second circumferential direction engaging portion 162a on the reverse rotation preventing member 160 side are connected to the cylindrical member 106. The reverse rotation preventing member 160 can be fixed in the circumferential direction. As a result, relative rotation between the cylindrical member 106 and the reverse rotation prevention member 160 can be restricted even when the engagement edge 168a of the reverse rotation prevention member 160 is caused to interfere and forcibly tightening.

同様に、筒状部材106側の第一軸方向係合部130と、逆回転防止部材160の第二軸方向係合部162bにより、筒状部材106と逆回転防止部材160が軸方向に固定されている。結果、筒状部材106を強制的にねじ込んで、逆回転防止部材160の係合縁168aを半径方向に変位させる際にも、筒状部材106と逆回転防止部材160が軸方向に離脱することを防止できる。本実施形態では、組立時に第一軸方向係合部130を屈曲させて互いにかしめるので、簡易な製造工程にもかかわらず、確実に両者を一体化できる。   Similarly, the cylindrical member 106 and the reverse rotation prevention member 160 are fixed in the axial direction by the first axial engagement portion 130 on the cylindrical member 106 side and the second axial engagement portion 162b of the reverse rotation prevention member 160. Has been. As a result, even when the cylindrical member 106 is forcibly screwed to displace the engagement edge 168a of the reverse rotation prevention member 160 in the radial direction, the cylindrical member 106 and the reverse rotation prevention member 160 are separated in the axial direction. Can be prevented. In the present embodiment, since the first axial engagement portion 130 is bent and caulked with each other during assembly, both can be reliably integrated in spite of a simple manufacturing process.

とりわけ、本実施形態の逆回転防止部材160の座面部162は、少なくとも周方向に180度以上の角度範囲で、受部110の当接面110aに当接している。このように、座面部162を180°以上の角度範囲に設定すると、逆回転防止部材160に外力が作用しても、第一軸方向係合部130との係合状態が外れ難くなる。一方で、逆回転防止部材160の係合縁168aは、周方向に180°以下の角度範囲で雄ねじ10と接触させることで、軸方向及び/又は半径方向外側に柔軟に変位し易くすることが出来る。即ち、本実施形態の逆回転防止部材160によれば、筒状部材106と確実に一体化させつつも、係合縁168aを容易に変位できるようにしている。また、この際に係合縁168aを周方向に複数配置することで、雌ねじ体100が緩み方向に回転する際に、複数の係合縁168aが確実に雄ねじ体10と係合して、その回転を規制できる。また係合縁168と立設部165の角度関係を鈍角に設定しているので、係合縁168は、立設部165から離れる軸方向(両者の角度関係が180°に近づく方向)に弾性変形しやすいが、立設部165に近づく軸方向(両者の関係が90°に近づく方向)には弾性変形しにくいという利点がある。   In particular, the seat surface portion 162 of the reverse rotation preventing member 160 of the present embodiment is in contact with the contact surface 110a of the receiving portion 110 at least in the circumferential direction at an angle range of 180 degrees or more. As described above, when the seat surface portion 162 is set to an angle range of 180 ° or more, even when an external force is applied to the reverse rotation preventing member 160, the engagement state with the first axial engagement portion 130 is difficult to be released. On the other hand, the engagement edge 168a of the reverse rotation preventing member 160 can be easily displaced flexibly outward in the axial direction and / or in the radial direction by contacting with the male screw 10 in an angular range of 180 ° or less in the circumferential direction. I can do it. That is, according to the reverse rotation preventing member 160 of the present embodiment, the engagement edge 168a can be easily displaced while being reliably integrated with the cylindrical member 106. In addition, by arranging a plurality of engagement edges 168a in the circumferential direction at this time, when the female screw body 100 rotates in the loosening direction, the plurality of engagement edges 168a reliably engage with the male screw body 10, Rotation can be regulated. Further, since the angular relationship between the engaging edge 168 and the standing portion 165 is set to be an obtuse angle, the engaging edge 168 is elastic in the axial direction away from the standing portion 165 (the direction in which the angular relationship between the two approaches 180 °). Although it is easy to deform | transform, there exists an advantage that it is hard to elastically deform in the axial direction (direction where both relationship approaches 90 degrees) which approaches the standing part 165. FIG.

なお、上記実施形態の雄ねじ体10及び雌ねじ体100では、第一雄ねじ及び雌ねじ螺旋構造14、114と、第二雄ねじ及び雌ねじ螺旋構造15、115が、互いに逆ねじの関係(リード角が同じでリード方向が反対)となっている場合を例示したが、本発明はこれに限定されない。例えば図9に示すように、リード方向が同じで、リード角が異なる第一雄ねじ及び雌ねじ螺旋構造14、114と、第二雄ねじ及び雌ねじ螺旋構造15、115を採用することもできる。この場合、第一雄ねじ螺旋構造14によって構成される螺旋状のねじ山13aに、さらに螺旋条を重畳形成することにより、リードがL1(リード角がθ1)の第一雄ねじ螺旋構造14及びリードがL2(リード角がθ2)の第二雄ねじ螺旋構造15を、ねじ方向を揃えて形成することが出来る。   In the male screw body 10 and the female screw body 100 of the above-described embodiment, the first male screw and female screw helical structures 14 and 114 and the second male screw and female screw helical structures 15 and 115 are in a reverse screw relationship (with the same lead angle). Although the case where the lead direction is opposite is illustrated, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, first male screw and female screw spiral structures 14 and 114 and second male screw and female screw spiral structures 15 and 115 having the same lead direction and different lead angles may be employed. In this case, the first male screw spiral structure 14 having the lead L1 (lead angle θ1) and the lead are further formed by superimposing a spiral line on the spiral thread 13a formed by the first male screw spiral structure 14. The second male screw spiral structure 15 of L2 (lead angle θ2) can be formed with the screw directions aligned.

更に上記実施形態の雌ねじ体100では、本実施形態の雌ねじ体100によれば、当接面110aを含む範囲の軸垂直断面の断面像が、当接面100aと一致する平面リング状になる場合を例示したが、本発明はこれに限定されない。例えば図10(A)に示す雌ねじ体100のように、当接面110aを、半径方向に傾斜するテーパ面とすることができる。この場合、軸垂直断面X−Xの断面像は、環状の線となる。更に例えば図10(B)に示す雌ねじ体100のように、当接面110aを、軸に対して一方向傾斜する傾斜面とすることができる。この場合、当接面110aの軸垂直断面X−Xの断面像は、二箇所の線分となる。また更に例えば図10(C)に示す雌ねじ体100のように、当接面110aを、軸に対して一方向と他方向に傾斜する一対の傾斜面とすることができる。この場合、当接面110aの軸垂直断面X−Xの断面像は、四箇所の線分となる。これらのいずれにしろ、当接面110aを、軸垂直方向の断面によって視ると、断面像が周方向の複数箇所に得られる機会が提供されるため、逆回転防止部材160の保持姿勢を安定させることができる。   Furthermore, in the female screw body 100 of the above embodiment, according to the female screw body 100 of the present embodiment, the cross-sectional image of the axial vertical cross section in the range including the contact surface 110a is a flat ring shape that matches the contact surface 100a. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, like the female screw body 100 shown in FIG. 10A, the contact surface 110a can be a tapered surface inclined in the radial direction. In this case, the cross-sectional image of the axial vertical cross section XX is an annular line. Furthermore, the contact surface 110a can be made into the inclined surface which inclines in one direction with respect to an axis | shaft like the internal thread body 100 shown, for example in FIG.10 (B). In this case, the cross-sectional image of the axial vertical cross section XX of the contact surface 110a is two line segments. Furthermore, for example, like the female screw body 100 shown in FIG. 10C, the contact surface 110a can be a pair of inclined surfaces that are inclined in one direction and the other direction with respect to the axis. In this case, the cross-sectional images of the axial vertical cross section XX of the contact surface 110a are four line segments. In any case, when the abutment surface 110a is viewed from a cross section in the axis-perpendicular direction, an opportunity to obtain cross-sectional images at a plurality of locations in the circumferential direction is provided, so that the holding posture of the reverse rotation preventing member 160 is stabilized. Can be made.

また、本発明の実施例は、上記実施の形態に限定されるものではなく、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲内において種々変更を加え得ることは勿論である。   Further, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the above-described embodiments, and it is needless to say that various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
