New description: [New technical field] This case is related to the line thief. In more detail, it refers to the combination of the line and the main screw on the rotating rod and the safety position. An improvement is proposed for the safety nut. [Prior Art] As shown in the first figure, the linear actuator is a driving assembly 11 that utilizes the motor 10 and its gears, and the like, and drives the screw 12 to rotate, using the main screw (four) coupled to the guide tube 12. An inner tube 14 is driven to linearly expand and contract in an outer tube 15. It is used in load-bearing structures such as the rise and fall of hospital beds, or other mechanical applications that require expansion and contraction. The damage of the thread of the main screw head 13 is a problem that is often discussed, and the reason is included, including that the main nut 13 converts the rotational power of the lead screw 12 into a linear thrust and drives the main nut 13 to be connected. On the inner tube 14, the spring inner 14H moving workpiece (not shown) moves, so the main nut I3 is the main component carrying the load 'thread and guide screw (four) long time (four) (four) wear and tear $. In addition, in order to reduce the noise generated by the friction between the main nut 13 and the lead screw 12, the main nut 13 is made of (4) rubber f, but the lead screw 12 is a metal rod, and the plastic main nut 13 is The thread wear is more serious. In addition, when the internal officer 14 causes improper resistance to work objects, the main nut may have an immediate cracking damage. In any event, once the main nut 13 is damaged, it cannot afford the original load M312611, and the linear actuator loses its ability to act quickly, and the work will be quickly lost weight, causing more serious problems. In order to solve the above question 4, the manufacturer proposed a safety nut scheme. As shown in the first and second figures, a safety nut is fitted to the lead screw 12 and located inside the head end 131 of the main nut 13. When the main nut 13 is disintegrated, the function of carrying the load can be temporarily carried out by the j., and the linear _ does not immediately lose the actuation ability, forming a _ protection, improving the safety of use. • The main disadvantage of the above solution is that the safety nut 20 can only withstand the load in the opposite direction. As indicated by the arrow A in the second figure, the actuator is subjected to a thrust which is a load against the safety nut 2〇. When the main nut 13 collapses and cannot load the force in the direction of the arrow a, the driven workpiece quickly loses weight. The safety nut 2 can be used to temporarily load the load function at this time, so that the main nut 13, the inner tube 14 and the working object can be safely returned to the original position. However, when the actuator is subjected to the pulling force in the direction of the arrow B in the second figure, the "Hella force is opposite to the direction of the safety nut 20, once the main nut 13 is hot and the load is applied, Will be pulled directly by the pull and separated from the safety nut. The safety nut 20 does not function with respect to the main nut 13. Jane Lu, the safety nut 13 described above can only provide safety protection when the actuator is subjected to a thrust load, and therefore is not suitable for an actuator that is subjected to tensile force. In addition, the head end 131 of the conventional main nut 13 is received by the circular nut 132 for the circular outer contour of the safety nut 20, and the safety nut 2 is screwed to the M312611 of the main nut 13 to the limit. By the mutual force 'When the torsion force of the lead screw 12 is greater than the friction force', the safety screw _ will be rotated, and cannot be positioned by the main nut 13 'This will make the safety screw _ unable to play the above temporary The main nut 13 carries the function of a load. [New content] This case proposes a nut actuator structure with linear actuators. The safety nut can play the role of the temporary main nut bearing load when the H is subjected to tension or thrust. Security protection. In other words, the safety nut has the ability to carry loads in both directions. The linear lung-nuclear nut assembly structure of the present invention is implemented on a lead screw and an inner tube of a linear actuator; comprising: a main nut, which is assembled on the lead screw, and an outer portion and a tube end group of the inner tube a fixing cap is assembled in the tube end of the inner tube; a safety nut is assembled on the lead screw, and both ends thereof are restricted by the main nut and the fixing cap. [Embodiment] As shown in the drawings of the third, fourth and fifth figures, the case where the nut assembly structure of the present invention is implemented in a conventional linear actuator is disclosed. The elements in the figures include an inner tube 3〇, a lead screw 40, a main nut 50, a safety nut 6〇, and a fixed cap 7〇. The main nut 50 is assembled on the lead screw 40, and an external thread 51 is externally coupled to the internal thread segment 31 of the end of the inner tube M312611. The main nut 50 is defined by the two ends of its axis as the head end and the tail end 53'. The tail end 53 is provided with an assembly space 54 for the above-mentioned safety screw-cut assembly. In the embodiment of the present invention, the assembly space 54 and the safety nut 6 outside the wheel gallery 61 are polygonal, and are angularly matched to produce a snap-fit function. The above multiple (four) includes but is not limited to the hexagonal shape shown in the figure. The fixing cap 70 is combined with the external thread 71 to be positioned inside the inner tube 3'. The guide lion recognizes the towel, but does not succeed the fixing cap 7〇. 〃 When the main nut 50 and the safety nut 6〇 assembled thereto are coupled to the tube end of the inner member 30, the two ends of the safety nut 6〇 are respectively replaced by the main nut 50 and the fixed cap 7 described above. Limited. As described in the prior art, under normal circumstances, the rotation of the lead screw 4 可使 can cause the main screw (4) and the safety _ step to axially displace on it to drive the inner tube 30' to make the inner tube 3 〇 Produce a push or retreat art action to achieve a linear telescopic motion. However, when the main nut 5 〇 is broken, it is necessary to temporarily carry the load by the safety nut 6 。. It is worth noting that the safety nut 6〇 of this case has the load capacity to achieve tension and thrust. Mainly because the safety nut 6〇 is disposed at the rear end of the main nut 50 and a fixing cap 7〇 is disposed in the inner tube 3〇, the main nut training and the fixing cap 70 restrict the safety nut 6 Both ends of the crucible, therefore, can play a role when the actuator is subjected to thrust or tension. As shown in the third figure, the arrow C indicates that the actuator is subjected to a thrust. In this case, when the nut of the main nut 50 and the lead screw 40 collapses and loses the ability to be coupled to the lead screw 40, so that the thrust cannot be loaded, the thrust is caused by the fixing cap 70. The safety nut 60 is applied, and the safety nut 60 quickly functions as a temporary load bearing. As with the third figure, the arrow D indicates that the actuator is subjected to a pulling force. In this case, when the screw of the main nut 50 and the lead screw 40 collapses and loses the ability to be coupled to the lead screw 40, so that the pulling force cannot be loaded, the safety nut 60 can limit the main screw. The cap 50 prevents the main nut 5〇 from being pulled out directly by the pulling force' and the safety nut 60 is restricted by the fixing cap 70 and the main nut 5〇, so the safety nut can function as a temporary load bearing. As described above, the above-mentioned nut assembly method of the present invention can provide safety protection even when the actuator is subjected to tension or thrust, and therefore the present invention is applicable to an actuator that receives thrust and tension. Moreover, in the present case, the safety nut 60 and the main nut 50 are matched in a polygonal shape, and the main locking nut is fixed. The safety screw can be positioned by the positive nut 50 without rotating with the lead screw 4〇. The safety nut (9) completely functions as a temporary load bearing when the main nut 50 is disintegrated. Although the present case is described in terms of a preferred embodiment, those skilled in the art can make various forms of changes without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present case and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Any modification or change that is not in violation of the spirit of the case is the scope of patent application in this case.
