VEHICULOSVEHICLES
CAMPO DE LA INVENCIÓN La presente invención está relacionada con la industria automotriz o de la industria de la manufactura de refacciones de esta industria. Más específicamente está relacionada con la industria de manufactura de accesorios para vehículos, y más específicamente con la manufactura de tornillos, tuercas, o birlos de seguridad. ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓN FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention is related to the automotive industry or the spare parts manufacturing industry of this industry. More specifically, it is related to the vehicle accessories manufacturing industry, and more specifically to the manufacture of bolts, nuts, or security studs. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
En el campo de los automóviles, las ruedas se aseguran comúnmente a un cubo o eje del vehículo mediante una pluralidad de tuercas de rueda o tuercas de oreja. Tales tuercas de rueda deben apretarse a un par especificado para garantizar que la rueda quede retenida de forma segura en el cubo. Una tuerca demasiado apretada corre el riesgo de dañar la tuerca o el espárrago que se extiende desde el cubo, mientras que una tuerca que no está lo suficientemente apretada puede arriesgarse a aflojarse. Es bien sabido que las tuercas de rueda aflojadas son indeseables debido a la posibilidad de que la rueda se vuelva inestable o suelta y posiblemente pierda la rueda. In the automotive field, wheels are commonly secured to a hub or axle of the vehicle by a plurality of wheel nuts or lug nuts. Such wheel nuts must be tightened to a specified torque to ensure that the wheel is securely retained in the hub. A nut that is too tight runs the risk of damaging the nut or stud that extends from the hub, while a nut that is not tight enough can risk loosening. It is well known that loosened wheel nuts are undesirable due to the possibility of the wheel becoming unstable or loose and possibly losing the wheel.
Los intentos anteriores para indicar si una tuerca de la rueda está apretada ha sido proporcionar un cuerpo que pueda ubicarse alrededor de la tuerca que tiene un indicador en la misma para indicar al usuario cuando la tuerca ha girado fuera de la posición deseada. Previous attempts to indicate whether a wheel nut is tight has been to provide a body that can be located around the nut that has an indicator thereon to indicate to the user when the nut has rotated out of the desired position.
Tales dispositivos previos han sido difíciles y laboriosos de instalar, eliminar y operar. En particular, tales diseños previos tienen una abertura para ajustarse alrededor de la tuerca de la rueda que tiene un diámetro fijo. Debido a este diámetro fijo, previamente ha sido necesario limpiar a fondo la tuerca antes de la instalación del dispositivo para evitar que la suciedad acumulada y los residuos se unan al dispositivo o impidan la instalación. Tales dispositivos de diámetro fijo también han sido difíciles de instalar en climas fríos donde el dispositivo puede encogerse debido al coeficiente de expansión térmica del material utilizado para formar el dispositivo. Otras dificultades con los diseños anteriores son que las cubiertas han incluido una abertura de sección transversal fija a través del dispositivo. Dicha abertura fija ha dificultado la instalación debido a la necesidad de alinear con precisión la tapa con la tuerca de la rueda. Tal alineación precisa es difícil en entornos sucios, especialmente cuando la tuerca de la rueda no está limpiada adecuadamente. Además, los dispositivos anteriores han utilizado una porción de color diferente que solo es visible porque la tuerca de la rueda se ha girado desde una posición en la que está cubierta por una cubierta adyacente. En ambientes sucios, tales diferencias de color son difíciles de ver cuando todo el conjunto de la rueda está cubierto por una capa de tierra, sal del camino y otros desechos. Such prior devices have been difficult and time consuming to install, remove, and operate. In particular, such prior designs have an opening to fit around the wheel nut that has a fixed diameter. Due to this fixed diameter, it has previously been necessary to thoroughly clean the nut prior to device installation to prevent accumulated dirt and debris from sticking to the device or preventing installation. Such fixed diameter devices have also been difficult to install in cold climates where the Device may shrink due to the coefficient of thermal expansion of the material used to form the device. Other difficulties with prior designs are that the covers have included a fixed cross-sectional opening through the device. Such a fixed opening has made installation difficult due to the need to precisely align the cap with the wheel nut. Such accurate alignment is difficult in dirty environments, especially when the wheel nut is not properly cleaned. Furthermore, prior devices have used a different colored portion that is only visible because the wheel nut has been turned from a position where it is covered by an adjacent cover. In dirty environments, such color differences are difficult to see when the entire wheel assembly is covered in a layer of dirt, road salt, and other debris.
Actualmente, alrededor del mundo existen distintos tipos de tuercas y tornillos de seguridad (conocidos como birlos de seguridad) que son utilizados para prevenir en lo posible el robo de las llantas. Currently, around the world there are different types of lock nuts and bolts (known as security studs) that are used to prevent as much as possible the theft of tires.
Dentro de las tuercas y tornillos de seguridad actuales, existen distintos tipos. Todos constan en una tuerca o tornillo con una cabeza de forma especifica para que las herramientas comunes no puedan adaptarse a esta forma y asi no puedan ser retiradas. Within the current security nuts and bolts, there are different types. All consist of a nut or bolt with a head of a specific shape so that common tools cannot adapt to this shape and thus cannot be removed.
Algunos simplemente en lugar de tener la típica forma de tuerca hexagonal para ser sujetados y girados, tiene algún patrón distinto, con el que la forma hexagonal no funciona y supuestamente solo funciona la llave con el patrón especifico. Some just instead of having the typical hex nut shape to be clamped and turned, have some different pattern, which the hex shape doesn't work with and supposedly only the wrench with the specific pattern works.
Otros, en una modalidad, son cilindricos por fuera y llevan este patrón especifico por dentro o en la punta existiendo también la modalidad en la cual les agrega un tipo de anillo giratorio para que con mayor dificultad puedan ser sujetados y girados. Others, in one embodiment, are cylindrical on the outside and carry this specific pattern on the inside or at the tip, and there is also a mode in which a type of rotating ring is added so that they can be held and turned with greater difficulty.
Finalmente, existe un diseño que dejan el patrón especifico al fondo en el perímetro y cuentan con una cabeza hexagonal loca que evita que herramientas se acerquen al patrón de donde se sujeta la tuerca o tornillo. Finally, there is a design that leaves the specific pattern at the bottom on the perimeter and has a crazy hexagonal head that prevents tools from approaching the pattern where the nut or bolt is fastened.
La función es evitar el robo de riñes y llantas mediante la colocación de una tuerca o tornillo imposible de extraer sin contar con la herramienta que lleva la combinación de pernos específica. The function is to prevent the theft of kidneys and tires by placing a nut or screw impossible to remove without having the tool that carries the combination of bolts specific.

DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓN DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
La invención objeto de la presente descripción, en su modalidad preferida más simple consiste en una tuerca o tornillo con un disco con horadaciones y un dado con pernos diseñados para alojarse en estas horadaciones y poder apretar y aflojar dicho tornillo o tuerca. La seguridad de este dispositivo radica en el patrón de distribución y profundidad de estas horadaciones, que concuerdan con el patrón de distribución y longitudes de los pernos del dado. The invention object of the present description, in its simplest preferred embodiment, consists of a nut or screw with a disc with holes and a socket with bolts designed to be housed in these holes and to be able to tighten and loosen said screw or nut. The security of this device lies in the pattern of distribution and depth of these holes, which are consistent with the pattern of distribution and lengths of the bolts of the die.
Con el patrón de distribución y la profundidad de las horadaciones por un lado y las longitudes de los pernos se pueden establecer concordancias únicas entre tornillo o tuerca y dado para que cualquier otro patrón y longitud de pernos de dado no concuerde con el patrón de distribución y profundidades de horadaciones, y el giro de la tuerca o tornillo no pueda llevarse a cabo y la rueda o neumático no pueda ser separada del vehículo. With the distribution pattern and depth of the holes on one side and the lengths of the bolts, unique matches can be established between bolt or nut and die so that any other die bolt pattern and length does not match the pattern of distribution and depths of holes, and the turning of the nut or bolt cannot be carried out and the wheel or tire cannot be separated from the vehicle.
Dependiendo de la configuración del orificio del rin en donde va a estar alojado el tornillo o tuerca, va a ser la configuración de éstos. La configuración puede ser cónico, esférico o plano. Depending on the configuration of the hole in the rim where the bolt or nut will be housed, it will be the configuration of these. The configuration can be conical, spherical or flat.
También es posible tener una conformación de las horadaciones o barrenos que sean diferentes de las horadaciones circulares, y esto también que deberá ser reflejado en las secciones transversales de los pernos del dado, siendo esto otro elemento de seguridad. It is also possible to have a conformation of the holes or holes that are different from the circular holes, and this also must be reflected in the cross sections of the bolts of the die, this being another security element.
Una segunda modalidad preferida de la presente invención consiste en un capuchón o casquillo, en cuyo interior se aloja una tuerca o tornillo que es la que se fijará al rin de la llanta o neumático y a la masa o cubo del vehículo. Igual que la primera modalidad preferida, la tuerca o tornillo tiene en el disco unas horadaciones con un patrón de distribución y diferentes profundidades. El capuchón tiene también un patrón de distribución de horadaciones coincidente con el patrón de distribución de la tuerca o tornillo. A second preferred embodiment of the present invention consists of a cap or bushing, inside which a nut or bolt is housed, which is the one that will be fixed to the rim of the rim or tire and to the mass or hub of the vehicle. Like the first preferred embodiment, the nut or bolt has holes in the disc with a distribution pattern and different depths. The cap also has a hole distribution pattern coincident with the nut or bolt distribution pattern.
El dado que puede apretar o aflojar este dispositivo tiene un patrón de distribución, y dimensiones de largo y ancho y sección transversal de los pernos, concordantes con el patrón de distribución, dimensiones y conformación de las horadaciones de capuchón y tuerca o tornillo. The socket that can tighten or loosen this device has a distribution pattern, and dimensions of length and width and cross section of the bolts, consistent with the distribution pattern, dimensions and conformation of the cap and nut or screw holes.
En una tercera modalidad preferida, que es la más compleja de la presente invención, el primer componente es la tuerca/tornillo de seguridad con la cabeza plana. Esta es apretada con el dado de pernos, que hace la función de (al igual que las tuercas o tornillos originales del auto) detener el rin del auto. In a third preferred embodiment, which is the most complex of the present invention, the first component is the flat head lock nut / bolt. This is tightened with the bolt socket, which does the function of (like the original nuts or bolts of the car) to stop the rim of the car.
Sobre esta tuerca base, se coloca el segundo componente que llamaremos “casquillo o capuchón” que comprende una tuerca cubierta por dicho capuchón o casquillo. El capuchón es cerrado de la parte de abajo para que la tuerca quede dentro, imposible de salir y con un ajuste que le permite girar. La tuerca mencionada solo puede ser apretada o aflojada por medio de un dado con pernos específicamente diseñado para esa tuerca. Para llegar a esa tuerca los pernos deben pasar a través del capuchón, a través de los barrenos previamente alineados sobre este capuchón y coincidentes con la tuerca interna. El capuchón gira de manera loca, sin afectar la pieza de abajo, es decir que puede girar en cualquier sentido sin mover la tuerca. Gracias a este capuchón es imposible aflojar el casquillo tan solo sujetando la superficie. On this base nut, the second component that we will call "cap or cap" is placed, which comprises a nut covered by said cap or cap. The cap is closed from the bottom so that the nut is inside, impossible to get out and with an adjustment that allows it to rotate. The mentioned nut can only be tightened or loosened by means of a bolt-on socket specifically designed for that nut. To reach this nut, the bolts must pass through the cap, through the holes previously aligned on this cap and coinciding with the internal nut. The cap turns in a crazy way, without affecting the part below, that is, it can turn in any direction without moving the nut. Thanks to this cap, it is impossible to loosen the cap just by holding the surface.
En esta modalidad, el proceso de instalación consiste primero en fijar el rin por medio de la tuerca de base. En seguida fijar el capuchón por medio de la tuerca de capuchón, y para esto deberá de deslizar los pernos a través de los barrenos del capuchón y por medio del giro del capuchón, hacer coincidir los barrenos del capuchón con los barrenos de la tuerca del capuchón para fijar esta tuerca de capuchón al tornillo de los birlos. Aunque la tuerca del capuchón esta fija al tornillo de los birlos, el capuchón en sí gira de manera libre. Para retirar el capuchón y dejar accesible la tuerca base para su retiro, la llave con los pernos deberá de ser introducida In this mode, the installation process consists first of fixing the wheel by means of the base nut. Then fix the cap by means of the cap nut, and for this you must slide the bolts through the holes in the cap and by turning the cap, make the holes in the cap coincide with the holes in the cap nut to secure this cap nut to the stud bolt. Although the cap nut is attached to the stud bolt, the cap itself rotates freely. To remove the cap and leave the base nut accessible for removal, the wrench with the bolts must be inserted
La figura 1 ilustra la tuerca base 1 en perspectiva convencional, percibida desde la parte inferior frontal. Esta modalidad, que es la modalidad en la cual, el cuerpo 4 que estará en contacto con la pared del barreno del rin, es cónico. En este cuerpo cónico se tiene unos rebajos 3 para que los pernos del dado puedan penetrar más hacia adentro. Desde esta perspectiva se perciben las horadaciones 6 de esta manera. La cuerda interna 5 de ésta tuerca es la que permitirá atornillar la tuerca. Esta cuerda interna 6 es corrida de extremo a extremo, para permitir en alguna de las modalidades de la presente invención, que el tornillo de la masa o cubo sobresalga para atornillar la tuerca de fijación del casquillo o capuchón. El disco 2 de este elemento de las tres modalidades de nuestra tuerca de seguridad, es el que tiene las horadaciones con un patrón de distribución y configuración y dimensiones. Aunque en este dibujo el patrón de distribución, las dimensiones y la conformación es homogéneo, ya hemos dicho que estos elementos pueden ser determinados para formar combinaciones únicas que definan las características de los pernos del dado que permita apretar y aflojar esta tuerca. Figure 1 illustrates the base nut 1 in conventional perspective, seen from the front bottom. This mode, which is the mode in which the body 4 that will be in contact with the wall of the rim bore, is conical. In this conical body there are recesses 3 so that the bolts of the die can penetrate further inward. From this perspective, the holes 6 are perceived in this way. The internal cord 5 of this nut is what will allow the nut to be screwed on. This internal cord 6 is run from end to end, to allow in some of the embodiments of the present invention, that the screw of the dough or hub protrudes to screw in the fixing nut of the cap or cap. Disc 2 of this element of the three modes of our lock nut is the one with the holes with a distribution pattern and configuration and dimensions. Although in this drawing the distribution pattern, dimensions and conformation is homogeneous, we have already said that these elements can be determined to form unique combinations that define the characteristics of the bolts of the die that allows tightening and loosening this nut.
La figura 2 ilustra la misma tuerca base en perspectiva convencional, pero percibida desde la parte frontal superior. En esta perspectiva se pueden percibir mejor las horadaciones 6 y menos cuerpo 4 que va a estar en contacto con la horadación del rin. Este elemento dibujado en esta figura 2 y en la figura 1, es el elemento que va a aparecer en las tres modalidades preferidas de la presente invención. En la primera modalidad es el único elemento, con diferentes patrones de distribución de horadaciones y diferentes dimensiones y conformaciones de estas. Figure 2 illustrates the same base nut in conventional perspective, but perceived from the top front. In this perspective, the holes 6 can be better perceived and less body 4 that will be in contact with the hole in the rim. This element drawn in this figure 2 and in figure 1, is the element that will appear in the three preferred embodiments of the present invention. In the first modality, it is the only element, with different patterns of perforation distribution and different dimensions and conformations of these.
En la segunda modalidad, este elemento está localizado dentro del capuchón o casquillo que se ilustrará más adelante. In the second embodiment, this element is located within the cap or bushing that will be illustrated later.
En la tercera modalidad preferida, este elemento estará cubierto por encima con el capuchón o casquillo con una tuerca de capuchón en su interior. In the third preferred embodiment, this element will be covered above with the cap or bushing with a cap nut inside.
La figura 3 muestra el aspecto que presenta la tuerca base, en su modalidad esférica, desde una vista frontal. En esta modalidad el cuerpo 4 de la tuerca o tornillo que estará en contacto con el barreno del rin tiene una configuración semiesférica truncada por debajo. En todo lo demás la tuerca es igual. Figure 3 shows the appearance of the base nut, in its spherical form, from a front view. In this embodiment, the body 4 of the nut or bolt that will be in contact with the bore of the rim has a hemispherical configuration truncated below. In everything else the nut is the same.
La figura 4 representa el aspecto que presenta la tuerca base en su cara inferior, de la modalidad de tuerca base plana. Como se puede apreciar en esta modalidad de tuerca o tornillo 1 no existe el cuerpo 4 de las otras modalidades. Es claro que estos dibujos, aunque decimos que es tuerca o tornillo, dependiendo de si la masa o cubo donde va la rueda que se va a fijar, tiene tornillo o una cuerda, ilustran una tuerca. Figure 4 represents the appearance of the base nut on its underside, of the flat base nut mode. As can be seen in this modality of nut or screw 1, the body 4 of the other modalities does not exist. It is clear that these drawings, although we say that it is a nut or bolt, depending on whether the mass or hub where the wheel to be fixed goes, has a bolt or a rope, illustrate a nut.
Cuando es un tornillo, este elemento tiene un esparrago de cuerda corrida, y dependiendo de la modalidad preferida, el esparrago sobresale o no hacia el exterior. When it is a screw, this element has a straight rope stud, and depending on the preferred embodiment, the stud protrudes outwards or not.
La figura 5 dibuja el aspecto que presenta la tuerca capuchón 7, vista desde la parte inferior frontal. Esta tuerca capuchón 7 aparece únicamente en la modalidad preferida tres ya indicada. En la modalidad 2 esta tuerca capuchón es sustituida por la tuerca base en cualquiera de sus modalidades, cónica, esférica y plana. Esta tuerca capuchón se va a ubicar al interior del capuchón o casquillo y cumple la función de unir éste a la tuerca o tornillo, en la modalidad preferida primera ni el capuchón o casquillo, ni esta tuerca capuchón, son necesarios. Aunque en la modalidad ilustrada, además del disco de la tuerca capuchón 8, se tiene un disco central 9 con mayor espesor, este puede ser inexistente, y esta tuerca cumpliría su función. Sin embargo, para darle mayor estabilidad en la conformación se agrega este último para aumentar la longitud de la cuerda 10 para darle mayor firmeza al enroscado. Figure 5 shows the appearance of the cap nut 7, seen from the lower front part. This cap nut 7 appears only in the preferred embodiment three already indicated. In mode 2, this cap nut is replaced by the base nut in any of its forms, conical, spherical and flat. This cap nut is going to be located inside the cap or cap and fulfills the function of joining it to the nut or screw, in the first preferred embodiment neither the cap or cap, nor this cap nut, are necessary. Even if In the illustrated embodiment, in addition to the disc of the cap nut 8, there is a central disc 9 with greater thickness, this may be non-existent, and this nut would fulfill its function. However, to give it greater stability in the conformation, the latter is added to increase the length of the rope 10 to give more firmness to the winding.
La figura 6 es el aspecto que presenta la tuerca capuchón de la figura 5, pero dibujada en perspectiva convencional, vista desde la parte superior. Además del disco central 9 y el disco superior 8, también se pueden visualizar las horadaciones 11 , que van a alojar los pernos del dado para apretar o retirar la tuerca capuchón y el capuchón o casquillo. Estas horadaciones están diseñadas para tener un patrón de distribución, unas dimensiones y una conformación tal que los pernos del dado únicamente coincidan con un solo dado y en una sola posición. Por ejemplo, si se tiene un perno más largo y este coincide con la horadación más profunda, los otros pernos no serán alojados en las otras horadaciones y el apretado o el retirado del capuchón no podrá llevarse a cabo. Figure 6 is the appearance of the cap nut of Figure 5, but drawn in conventional perspective, seen from the top. In addition to the central disk 9 and the upper disk 8, the holes 11 can also be seen, which will house the bolts of the socket to tighten or remove the cap nut and the cap or cap. These holes are designed to have a distribution pattern, dimensions and conformation such that the bolts of the socket only coincide with a single socket and in a single position. For example, if you have a longer bolt and it coincides with the deepest hole, the other bolts will not be housed in the other holes and the tightening or removal of the cap cannot be carried out.
Lo mismo pasa si los pernos del dado no tienen el mismo patrón de distribución que las horadaciones o barrenos. Inclusive, los pernos pueden sufrir deformaciones o hasta destrucción si solamente coinciden unos pernos. The same happens if the bolts of the die do not have the same distribution pattern as the holes or holes. Even the bolts can suffer deformation or even destruction if only a few bolts coincide.
La figura 7 es un dibujo en perspectiva convencional del capuchón 12 de dos de las modalidades preferidas de la presente invención, en la modalidad del capuchón cilindrica, visto desde la parte inferior, en su modalidad abierta, es decir con una horadación o barreno central 16 en donde puede alojarse el extremo del tornillo o tuerca cuando la longitud de éstos rebase la tuerca capuchón en la tercera modalidad preferida de la presente invención o rebase la tuerca base en la segunda modalidad preferida. En el disco 14 del capuchón, se ubican las horadaciones de capuchón 15, las cuales no tendrán las variables de profundidad para establecer la seguridad, porque todos los barrenos u horadaciones deben de atravesarlo para que incidan en las horadaciones o barrenos de la tuerca o tornillo base o la tuerca capuchón. Todas las otras características de determinación de una combinación de seguridad si las tienen. Es decir el patrón de distribución, el diámetro o perímetro y la sección transversal. La figura 8 ilustra una vista en perspectiva convencional del capucho ilustrado en la figura 7, pero percibido desde la parte superior. Los mismos elementos ilustrados en la figura 7, salvo el disco interior 14, del cual se percibe la cara exterior superior, son ilustrados en la presente figura. Figure 7 is a conventional perspective drawing of the cap 12 of two of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, in the form of the cylindrical cap, seen from the bottom, in its open mode, that is, with a central hole 16 wherein the end of the screw or nut can be housed when their length exceeds the cap nut in the third preferred embodiment of the present invention or exceeds the base nut in the second preferred embodiment. In the disk 14 of the cap, the holes of the cap 15 are located, which will not have the depth variables to establish safety, because all the holes or holes must go through it to affect the holes or holes of the nut or screw. base or cap nut. All other characteristics of determining a security combination if they have them. That is, the distribution pattern, the diameter or perimeter and the cross section. Figure 8 illustrates a conventional perspective view of the hood illustrated in Figure 7, but viewed from the top. The same elements illustrated in figure 7, except for the inner disk 14, of which the upper outer face is perceived, are illustrated in the present figure.

All other items are the same.
La figura 10 ilustra la misma modalidad de la figura 9, en perspectiva convencional, pero vista desde la parte superior exterior. Todos los demás elementos son los mismos. Figure 10 illustrates the same embodiment of Figure 9, in conventional perspective, but seen from the outer upper part. All other items are the same.
Las figuras 11 y 12 ilustran las figuras 7 y 8 pero en su modalidad cerrada, en donde falta la horadación central 16 está ausente, todos los demás elementos están referenciados en dichas figuras 7 y 8. Esta modalidad preferida tiene la desventaja de no poder absorber cierto exceso de longitud de la tuerca o tornillo de fijación de la rueda o neumático. Todos los demás elementos son los mismos. Figures 11 and 12 illustrate Figures 7 and 8 but in their closed mode, where the central perforation 16 is absent, all other elements are referenced in said Figures 7 and 8. This preferred mode has the disadvantage of not being able to absorb some excess length of the wheel or tire fixing bolt or nut. All other items are the same.
Las figuras 13 y 14 ilustran las figuras 9 y 10 respectivamente, en su modalidad cerrada. Todos los demás elementos son los mismos. Figures 13 and 14 illustrate Figures 9 and 10 respectively, in their closed mode. All other items are the same.
La figura 15 ilustra el dado de apriete de la tuerca base, en perspectiva convencional visto de la parte inferior. Este dado 17 tiene un cuerpo principal 18, que en su cara inferior tiene los pernos 20, cuyas características determinan su especificidad de aplicación en cierto tornillo o tuerca de fijación del rin a la masa o cubo del automóvil. Aunque en esta figura se presentan ciertas características de los pernos, estos pueden presentar, como ya se ha mencionado a lo largo de esta descripción, diferencias en el patrón de distribución, longitud y diámetro o perímetro de los mismos y conformación de la sección transversal. Esta conformación a lo largo de la presente descripción y de las figuras anexas, han sido cilindricas, pero también pueden ser poligonales regulares o irregulares. También la conformación de la cabeza 19, puede variar, dando un elemento de seguridad adicional. La horadación 21 se tiene para cuando el dado se utilice en la primera modalidad preferida y la tuerca o tornillo tenga un extremo que sobresalga de la tuerca o tornillo base. Figure 15 illustrates the tightening socket of the base nut, in conventional perspective seen from the bottom. This die 17 has a main body 18, which on its lower face has bolts 20, the characteristics of which determine its specificity of application in a certain screw or nut for fixing the wheel to the mass or hub of the automobile. Although certain characteristics of the bolts are shown in this figure, they may present, as already mentioned throughout this description, differences in their distribution pattern, length and diameter or perimeter and conformation of the cross section. This conformation throughout the present description and the attached figures, have been cylindrical, but they can also be regular or irregular polygonal. Also the conformation of the head 19 can vary, giving an additional security element. The hole 21 is for when the socket is used in the first preferred embodiment and the nut or bolt has a end that sticks out of the base bolt or nut.
La figura 16 ilustra en perspectiva convencional el mismo dado de la figura 15, pero visto desde la parte superior. Los elementos referenciados son los mismos de la figura 15. Figure 16 illustrates in conventional perspective the same die of figure 15, but seen from the top. The referenced elements are the same as in figure 15.
Este dado podrá ser aplicado en las modalidades preferidas 1 y 2, es decir cuando el dispositivo consiste exclusivamente en una tuerca o tornillo base o cuando dicho dispositivo o tuerca están alojadas en un capuchón o casquillo, y posiblemente las longitudes de los pernos para la segunda modalidad preferida serán más largos. This die may be applied in preferred modalities 1 and 2, that is, when the device consists exclusively of a base nut or screw or when said device or nut is housed in a cap or bushing, and possibly the lengths of the bolts for the second. preferred mode will be longer.
La figura 17 ilustra en perspectiva convencional el dado de apriete de la tuerca del capuchón, visto desde la parte inferior. Por su configuración este dado es específico para la tercera modalidad preferida. Esto se nota porque el apriete o la rotación para retirar el capuchón se lleva a cabo por medio de una varilla que se inserta en cualquiera de los orificios 23, lo cual no permite aplicar un torque muy elevado. Ya en esta figura se empieza a semblantear un patrón de distribución específico. Figure 17 illustrates in conventional perspective the cap nut tightening socket, seen from the bottom. Due to its configuration, this die is specific for the third preferred mode. This is noticeable because the tightening or rotation to remove the cap is carried out by means of a rod that is inserted into any of the holes 23, which does not allow a very high torque to be applied. Already in this figure a specific distribution pattern is beginning to appear.
La figura 18 ilustra el dado de la figura 17 también en perspectiva convencional, pero percibido desde la parte superior. Los diferentes elementos son los mismos referenciados en la figura 17. Figure 18 illustrates the die of Figure 17 also in conventional perspective, but seen from the top. The different elements are the same referenced in figure 17.
La figura 19 ilustra la invención de la presente descripción, en su modalidad preferida número tres, en explosivo. Esta es la modalidad más compleja e incluye la tuerca base 1, la tuerca capuchón 7 y el capuchón o casquillo 12. Estos elementos ya fueron descritos en forma detallada en las figuras anteriores. Pueden tener conformaciones diferentes ya descritas. Figure 19 illustrates the invention of the present disclosure, in its preferred embodiment number three, in explosive. This is the most complex embodiment and includes the base nut 1, the cap nut 7 and the cap or cap 12. These elements have already been described in detail in the previous figures. They may have different conformations already described.
Resumiendo, la presente invención tiene tres modalidades preferidas. La primera y más simple es la que consiste en una tuerca base, cuya seguridad radica en las características de las horadaciones o barrenos, que impiden que una llave que no tome en cuenta estas características, no podrá retirar dicha tuerca base. Estas características son patrón de distribución de las horadaciones o barreno, dimensiones de estos (diámetro o perímetro de éstos y longitud de los mismos), y la sección transversal, cualquier sección poligonal o circular. In summary, the present invention has three preferred embodiments. The first and simplest is the one consisting of a base nut, the security of which lies in the characteristics of the holes or holes, which prevent a wrench that does not take these characteristics into account, not being able to remove said base nut. These characteristics are the distribution pattern of the holes or holes, their dimensions (diameter or perimeter of these and their length), and the cross section, any polygonal or circular section.
La segunda modalidad preferida está integrada por la dicha tuerca o tornillo base, pero alojada en un capuchón o casquillo, situación que incrementa la seguridad, porque la llave de accionamiento o dado deberá de cumplir con las características apropiadas para atravesar el casquillo o capuchón y después embonar en las horadaciones de la tuerca o tornillo base. The second preferred embodiment is made up of the said base nut or screw, but housed in a cap or cap, a situation that increases security, because the drive key or socket must meet the appropriate characteristics to pass through the cap or cap and then fit into the holes in the base nut or screw.
Y la tercera modalidad preferida acaba de ser descrita. And the third preferred mode has just been described.
La figura 20 es la parte del ensamble que diferencia la modalidad del dispositivo objeto de la presente descripción en la cual el auto en lugar de tener tornillo tiene cuerda. En esta otra modalidad preferida, que responde al hecho de que la masa o cubo tiene cuerda y no tornillo para la fijación de las ruedas o neumáticos. Y consiste en una tuerca base 1 como se ha estado ilustrando, pero con un esparrago 26 que la atraviesa. Es claro que la tuerca base 1, puede presentar diferentes configuraciones además de la cónica ilustrada, es decir puede ser plana, o semiesférica, o cualquier otra configuración que tenga los orificios del rin que se va a fijar. Figure 20 is the part of the assembly that differentiates the modality of the device object of the present description in which the car instead of having a screw has a rope. In this other preferred embodiment, which responds to the fact that the mass or hub has a rope and no screw for fixing the wheels or tires. And it consists of a base nut 1 as illustrated, but with a stud 26 running through it. It is clear that the base nut 1 can have different configurations in addition to the conical illustrated, that is, it can be flat, or hemispherical, or any other configuration that has the holes in the rim to be fixed.
Un análisis de las diferentes modalidades preferidas de la presente invención nos permite concluir que la pieza que más problemas presenta para su manufactura es el capuchón. Requiere de arranque de material para formar la cavidad, lo cual es complicado. An analysis of the different preferred modalities of the present invention allows us to conclude that the part that presents the most problems for its manufacture is the cap. It requires removal of material to form the cavity, which is complicated.
Por otro lado, esa forma de capuchón solo se requiere para evitar que pueda fijarse en una herramienta la tuerca base, y girarse ésta para retirarla de la masa y retirar la rueda, sin necesidad de tener la combinación del patrón de horadaciones reflejada en una herramienta de con pernos, vulnerando la seguridad de la fijación. Este requerimiento solo se presenta cuando la tuerca base sobresale del hueco del rin donde está alojada ésta pieza. On the other hand, this form of cap is only required to prevent the base nut from being fixed on a tool, and turning it to remove it from the mass and remove the wheel, without the need to have the combination of the perforation pattern reflected in a tool. of with bolts, violating the security of the fixation. This requirement only occurs when the base nut protrudes from the hole in the rim where this part is housed.
Otro aspecto de seguridad es que con el capuchón se modifica, es la longitud de los pernos de la llave que va a servir para fijar y retirar la tuerca base. Además, al cubrir el capucho la tuerca base, a pesar de tener el mismo patrón de distribución de los barrenos u orificios al introducir un solo perno, por ejemplo, esto no permitirá retirar ni tuerca base ni capuchón. Se requeriría introducir al menos dos pernos sueltos, para que con una llave o pinza cualquiera se gire la tuerca base y se desatornille. Como hay un patrón de distribución muy específico de estos barrenos, se puede hacer coincidir fácilmente un perno suelto, sin embargo, si una persona no cuenta con la llave correspondiente, la posibilidad de colocar un segundo perno suelto disminuye drásticamente. Another safety aspect is that with the cap it is modified, it is the length of the bolts of the wrench that will be used to fix and remove the base nut. In addition, as the base nut covers the cap, despite having the same pattern of distribution of the holes or holes when inserting a single bolt, for example, this will not allow the removal of the base nut or cap. It would be necessary to introduce at least two loose bolts, so that with any wrench or pliers the base nut can be turned and unscrewed. As there is a very specific distribution pattern to these holes, a loose bolt can be easily matched, however if a person does not have the corresponding key, the possibility of placing a second loose bolt is drastically reduced.
Para lograr la ventaja indicada en el párrafo superior, pero disminuyendo la complicación de la manufactura de un capuchón, en la modalidad ilustrada en las figuras 21 a 25, se sustituye el capuchón por un disco 27, mostrado en la figura 21 , dicho disco es fijado de manera giratoria a la tuerca base, por medio de un rodamiento 28 que por medio de pernos prisioneros, se fija a su vez a la tuerca base 1. To achieve the advantage indicated in the upper paragraph, but reducing the complication of the manufacture of a cap, in the embodiment illustrated in Figures 21 to 25, the cap is replaced by a disk 27, shown in Figure 21, said disk is rotatably fixed to the base nut, by means of a bearing 28 which, by means of stud bolts, is in turn fixed to the base nut 1.
En la figura 22 se muestra la conformación del medio de rodamiento-medio de fijación, del disco que sustituye el capuchón. En una de sus modalidades, el medio de rodamiento-medio de fijación, consistente en un cilindro hueco, tiene dos diámetros externos, uno inferior 29 más pequeño y otro 30 en el extremo superior más grande. En otra de las modalidades, el medio de rodamiento-medio de fijación es sólido, es decir no tiene ninguna oquedad, y es utilizado cuando es birlo el que comprende nuestra invención. Figure 22 shows the conformation of the rolling means-fixing means, of the disk that replaces the cap. In one of its embodiments, the bearing means-fixing means, consisting of a hollow cylinder, has two external diameters, a lower one 29 smaller and another 30 at the larger upper end. In another of the modalities, the means of bearing-means of fixation is solid, that is to say it does not have any cavity, and it is used when it is the stud that comprises our invention.
Como se ve en la figura 21, el medio de rodamiento-medio de fijación, penetra por la parte superior y se aloja, en su diámetro externo más grande al interior del disco y en su parte de diámetro más pequeño al interior de la tuerca base. As can be seen in figure 21, the bearing means-fixing means, penetrates through the upper part and is housed, in its largest external diameter inside the disk and in its smaller diameter part, inside the base nut. .
El segmento de menor diámetro externo del medio de fijación-medio de rodamiento se fija al interior del abocardado 31 de la tuerca base 23 por medio de un adhesivo y pernos prisioneros que atraviesa lateralmente la tuerca base y llega al medio de rodamiento-medio de fijación. En la figura 23 que ilustra la tuerca base se pueden apreciar tres elementos, el abocardado 31, el escalón formado 33 y la rosca 32. The smaller outer diameter segment of the clamping means-bearing means is fixed to the inside of the flare 31 of the base nut 23 by means of an adhesive and studs that laterally pass through the base nut and reaches the bearing means-clamping means. . In figure 23, which illustrates the base nut, three elements can be seen, the flare 31, the formed step 33 and the thread 32.
En la figura 24 se ilustra el disco 34 que sustituye de manera parcial al capuchón. Y la sustitución es parcial porque este disco no envuelve a la tuerca base. En esta figura se ilustra el escalón que se forma por los dos diámetros internos que tiene dicho disco, correspondiendo dichos diámetros con los dos diámetros del medio de rodamiento-medio de fijación del disco a la tuerca base. Figure 24 illustrates the disk 34 that partially replaces the cap. And the replacement is partial because this disc does not surround the base nut. This figure illustrates the step formed by the two internal diameters that said disk has, said diameters corresponding to the two diameters of the rolling means-means for fixing the disk to the base nut.
Finalmente, existe un último elemento en esta modalidad preferida del invento que no siempre se va a agregar. Este elemento es un anillo 36 ilustrado en la figura 25. Finally, there is a last element in this preferred embodiment of the invention that it is not always going to be added. This element is a ring 36 illustrated in Figure 25.
Este elemento va a ser utilizado cuando la tuerca base quede expuesta por encima del nivel del rim. Si la tuerca sobresale y puede ser afianzada por una herramienta para hacer girar, se pierde toda la seguridad de la presente invención. Entonces, en esta situación se requiere este otro elemento que impida el acceso fraudulento a la tuerca base. Para la instalación de este elemento y su fijación, el diámetro externo del disco 27 y el diámetro externo mayor de la tuerca base son diferentes. Siendo mayor el diámetro externo del disco sustituto del capuchón, dicho anillo 36 estará mantenido en su lugar sin evitar su giro, por dicho disco 27. El anillo girará entonces libremente siempre en contacto deslizante con la tuerca base evitando que alguna herramienta diferente del dado, diseñado con los pernos en la distribución adecuada, permita fijar dicha tuerca base y hacerla girar. This item is to be used when the base nut is exposed above the rim level. If the nut protrudes and can be secured by a turning tool, all the security of the present invention is lost. Then, in this situation, this other element is required to prevent fraudulent access to the base nut. For the installation of this element and its fixing, the external diameter of the disc 27 and the major external diameter of the base nut are different. The outer diameter of the replacement cap disk being larger, said ring 36 will be kept in place without preventing its rotation, by said disk 27. The ring will then rotate freely, always in sliding contact with the base nut, preventing any tool other than the die, designed with the bolts in the proper distribution, it allows to fix said base nut and turn it.
Observando la modalidad con mayor seguridad de la modalidad sin capuchón, veremos que es muy semejante con la modalidad con capuchón, con la diferencia de que el capuchón es sustituido por dos piezas independientes, el disco 34 y el anillo 36. Observing the modality with greater security of the modality without cap, we will see that it is very similar to the modality with cap, with the difference that the cap is replaced by two independent pieces, the disc 34 and the ring 36.
