- FIG. 1 is a cross section of a main part of a tightening structure for locking according to the first example of the present invention and (a) is one before completing the tightening and (b) is one after completing the tightening. A tightening structure for locking according to the first example of the present invention mainly consists of
bolt 4,nut 2, andwasher Bolt 4 consists of anaxis 41 and a top part 42. One of the points of a tightening structure for locking 1 according to the first example of the present invention lies in comprising arecessed part 21 symmetrical with respect to the axis and formed in a generally trapezoidal shape in cross section is formed in thenut 2 on aninner washer 3 side and a projetedpart 31 symmetrical with respect to the axis and formed in a generally trapezoidal shape in cross section is formed on thewasher 3 on aninner nut 2 side. - Next, the structure of a
nut 2 for a tightening structure for locking according to the first example of the present invention is explained in more detail with reference to the FIG. 2. FIG. 2 is a nut for a tightening structure for locking according to the first example of the present invention and (a) is top plan view and (b) is A-A cross section and (c) is bottom plan view. As shown in the A-A cross section in the FIG. 2 (b), thefemale screwing part 26 is formed in the upper side of the inner side of thenut 2, for adapting to the male screwing part formed in the axis of the bolt. Arecessed part 21 is formed symmetrically with respect to the axis and formed in a generally trapezoidal shape in cross section in thenut 2 on an inner washer side. Herein, “symmetrically with respect to the axis” means “symmetrically with respect to the center axis T of thenut 2.” - The
recessed part 21 mainly consists of asloping part 22, alower crossing point 25 which is positioned in the crossing point between thesloping part 22 and the lower surface 28, anupper surface part 25, and anupper crossing point 24 which is positioned in the crossing point between theupper surface part 23 and thesloping part 22. In this way, as arecessed part 21 is formed symmetrically with respect to the axis and formed in a generally trapezoidal shape in cross section in the nut, theupper crossing points 24 and thelower crossing points 25 are expressed as concentric circles, as shown in the bottom plan view in FIG. 2(c). And 27 is an inner diameter of thefemale screwing part 26 and is concentric circle, just the same way as theupper crossing points 24 and thelower crossing points 25, as shown in FIG. 2(c). - Next, the detailed relation of the measure of this
nut 2 is explained. V shows the distance between two sides confronting each other in the regular hexagon (this distance, hereinafter, is refered to as “two sides width.”), as an external form of thenut 2 in this embodiment is a regular hexagon in the bottom plan view in FIG. 2(c). D, D′, D″ each shows the outer diameter of thefemale screwing part 26, the diameter of theupper crossing points 24, and the diameter of thelower crossing points 25. The relation of the measure among these four measures such as V, D, D′, and D″ is as follows. - D<D′<D″<=V
- That is, the outer diameter D of the
female screwing part 26, the diameter D′ of theupper crossing points 24, the diameter D″ of thelower crossing points 25, and two sides width V, in this sequence, become longer and longer. But the diameter D″ of thelower crossing points 25 can be equal to the two sides width V. - H, S, and H′ respectively show the height of the nut, the height of the
female screwing part 26, and the height of therecessed part 21. The relation of the measure among these three measures is as follows. - H=S+H′
- The height S of the
female screwing part 26 has to be longer than the length for which the necessary torque for tightening can be achieved. Moreover, approximately, the ratio between these two heights S:H=2:1 is preferable. - “x” shows a sloping angle of the
sloping part 22 with respect to the center axis T and approximately 10 degree with respect to the center axis is preferable. - Next, the structure of the
washer 3 for a tightening structure for locking according to the first example of the present invention is in more detail explained, with reference to the FIG. 3. FIG. 3 is a washer for a tightening structure for locking according to the first example of the present invention and (a) is top plan view and (b) is B-B cross section. - One point of
washer 3 for a tightening structure for locking according to the first example of the present invention lies in that a projectedpart 31 is provided and lies in the form of the projectedpart 31. The projectedpart 31 mainly consists of the curvedlower point 34, thecurved part 36 and thehole 35 and is formed in a generally trapezoidal shape in cross section. The curvedlower point 34 constitutes a symmetrical form which makes the center position of the projectedpart 31 its center, that is, a circle, as shown in the top plan view of FIG. 3(a). The center position of this projectedpart 31 lies in “i” on the shown line X-X and the line X-X shown in this FIG. 3(b) is common with the center axis T of thenut 2 in the above-mentioned FIG. 2 (c).This first example of the present invention comprises a supportingpart 32 beneath the projectedpart 31 and the supportingpart 32 can contact an tightened object etc. at the supportinglower point 33. - The
outer diameter point 37 of thehole 35 which is positoined at the upper side of the projectedpart 31, constitutes a circle and the center position of this circle, that is, the center position of thehole 35 lies in the shown point “j.” In this way, the center position “j” of thehole 35 is on the shown line Y-Y and the center position of the projectedpart 31 lies in “i” on the shown line X-X. The center position “j” of thehole 35 is eccentric to the center position “i” of the projectedpart 31. That is, the position of the center position “j” of thehole 35 is different from the position of the center position “i” of the projectedpart 31. - Next, the relation of the measure of the
washer 3 for a tightening structure for locking according to the first example of the present invention is explained. As shown in B-B cross section in FIG. 3(b), h, h′, and h″ respectively show the height of thewasher 3, the height of the projectedpart 31, and the supportingpart 32. The relation among these three values such as h, h′, and h″ is as follows. - h=h′+h″
- In this embodimemt, H>h, that is, the height:H of the
nut 2 is higher than the height:h of thewasher 3. - In the B-B cross section in FIG. 3 (b), d, p, p′, and p″ respectively show the diameter of the
hole 35, the diameter of the circle consisting of the supportinglower points 33, the diameter of the circle consisting of the most heighted points of thecurved part 36 in the projectedpart 31, and the diameter of the circle consisting of the curvedlower points 34. The relation between these four values d, p, p′, and p″ and the outer diameter D of the female screwingpart 26 of thenut 2 in FIG. 2(b) is as follows. - p>p″>p′>d>D
- That is, the diameter:p of the circle consisting of the supporting
lower points 33, the diameter:p″ of the circle consisting of the curvedlower points 34, the diameter:p′ of the circle consisting of the most heightened points of thecurved part 36 in the projectedpart 31, and the outer diameter D of the female screwingpart 26 of thenut 2, in this sequence, become shorter and shorter. In this embodiment, d=D+α, α shows the height of the ditch of the screwing part. - In the first example of the present invention, the relation among the diameter:p′ of the circle consisting of the most heightened points of the
curved part 36 in the projectedpart 31 of thewasher 3, the diameter:p″ of the circle consisting of the curvedlower points 34 in FIG. 3(b) and the diameter:D′ of the upper crossing points 24 of the recessedpart 21 of thenut 2, the diameter D″ of the lower crossing points 25, is as follows. - p′<=D′<D″<=p″
- That is, the diameter:p′ of the circle consisting of the most heightened points of the
curved part 36 in the projectedpart 31 of thewasher 3, is equal to or smaller than the diameter:D′ of the upper crossing points 24 of the recessedpart 21 of thenut 2 and the diameter:p″ of the circle consisting of the curvedlower points 34 in thecurved part 36 in the projectedpart 31 of thewasher 3, is equal to or larger than the diameter D″ of the lower crossing points 25 of the recessedpart 21 of thenut 2. As a result, in this first embodiment, when the recessedpart 21 of thenut 2 and the projectedpart 31 of thewasher 3 enter in the fitting state, the lower crossing points 25 of the recessedpart 21 of thenut 2 applied the pressure around thecurved part 36 in the projectedpart 31 of thewasher 3. - Next, operations of the above-written tightening structure for locking according to the first example of the present invention is explained, with reference to FIG. 1, FIG. 2, and FIG. 3.
- As shown in FIG. 1(a), the tightened
object 6 and thewasher 3 according to this invention, in this order, are put on thetop part 41 of thebolt 4 and thenut 2 according to this invention is rotated along the screwing part. First, the lower crossing points 25 of the recessedpart 21 of thenut 2 gets in touch with thecurved part 36 in the projectedpart 31 of thewasher 3. - The center position “i” of the projected
part 31 is on “i” in the shown line X-X and the line X-X shown in this FIG. 3(b) is common with the center axis T of thenut 2 in the above-mentioned FIG. 2(c) so after the lower crossing points 25 of the recessedpart 21 of thenut 2 gets in touch with thecurved part 36 in the projectedpart 31 of thewasher 3, as shown in FIG. 1(b), thecurved part 36 in the projectedpart 31 of thewasher 3 enters along the recessedpart 21 of thenut 2 with the result that thecurved part 36 in the projectedpart 31 of thewasher 3 and the recessedpart 21 of thenut 2 enter into the fitting state. - At this time, because the center position “j” of the
hole 35 of the projectedpart 31 of thewasher 3 is eccentric to the center position “i” of the projectedpart 31, as shown in the center-right side of FIG. 1(b), the parts consisting of thehole 35 of the projectedpart 31 of thewasher 3, cut into the screwing part of theaxis 41 of thebolt 4. That is, comparing (a) and (b) in FIG. 1, thewasher 3 moves leftwards approximately only a distance corresponding to the ditch of the screwing part, in FIG. 1(b), with the result that the parts consisting of thehole 35 of the projectedpart 31 of thewasher 3, cut into the screwing part of theaxis 41 of thebolt 4. - As a result, after the
nut 2 is tightened using thewasher 3, complex effect for locking can be achived because of so-called wedge effect. That is, because tightening torque acts as the force from the side against thescrewing part of theaxis 41 of thebolt 4 by tightening of thenut 2, the spcific part of thehole 35 of thewasher 3 cuts into the screwing part of theaxis 41 of thebolt 4 and the relation of the position between thewasher 2 and thebolt 4 is fixed, with the result that the strong effect for locking can be achieved. In addition, it is preferable that a tightening structure for locking, wherein a thickness of the material of the washer is smaller than the pitch of the screwing part of the bolt, because the washer is easy to cut into the screwing part. - Moreover, because the screwing part of the
axis 41 of the bolt is formed spirally, when thehole 35 of thewasher 3 cuts into the spiral screwing part of theaxis 41 of thisbolt 4, a kind of twist arises at the contact point with the screwing part of thehole 35, as shown in the breif figure of FIG. 4. This kind of twist and the spiral screwing part arise the effect for locking. - Moreover, in the first embodiment, the
washer 3 comoprises a supportingpart 32 therebeneath. Therefore, the spring action of this supportingpart 32 arises because of the tightening torque of thenut 2. Because of this spring action, the inner side of thehole 35 of thewasher 3 cuts into the screwing part of theaxis 41 of thebolt 4, with the result that the effect for locking appears strongly. Moreover, if the form of this supporting part is horizontal with respect to an tightened object, the specific effect that the washer is possible to move correctly horizontally, appears. - Moreover, in addition to the above-written effect for locking, because of the above-written wedge effect, the screwing part and the
hole 35 of thewasher 3 are strongly fitted and the concentrating power is applied to this fitting point, with the result that this fitting point becomes the key for locking. Therefore, even if the tightening torque is applied excessively, the break-down because of the excessive tightening, can be prevented and the proper tightening is possible. - FIG. 5 is a
washer 3 for a tightening structure for locking according to the second example of the present invention and (a) is top plan view and (b) is C-C cross section. The different point in comparison with awasher 3 for a tightening structure for locking according to the first example, lies in that thecurved part 36 of the projectedpart 31 is changed into straight part in cross section. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6(a), thelower crossing point 25 of the bolt contacts with the straight part in cross section in the projected part of thewasher 3. The form of the projected part can be varied by the materials etc. of nut or washer. - As other embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6(b), the projected part of the
washer 3 has large sloping, with the result that the uppertop part 38 of the projected part can contact with thesloping part 22 of the recessedpart 21 of thenut 2. - Moreover, as the other embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6(c), an angle of the sloping part of the recessed part of a nut is the same as an angle of the sloping part of the projected part, with the result that the face-contact is possible.
- As described above, tightening structure for locking and nut and washer for the tightening structure can make more firm tightening possible.
- As a tightening structure for locking according to this invention, comprising a nut, a bolt, and a washer with a hole through which an axis of said bolt passes, wherein, a recessed part symmetrical with respect to the axis and formed in a generally trapezoidal shape in cross section is formed in the nut on an inner washer side, a projeted part symmetrical with respect to the axis and formed in a generally trapezoidal shape in cross section is formed on the washer on an inner nut side, and the recessed part of the nut is fitted to the projected part of said washer, and the hole in the washer is positioned on the inner side of the projected part and the center position of the hole is positioned eccentric to the center position of the projected part of the washer, this is useful for locking of the tightening structure.
