浮动螺母组件广泛应用于汽车工业中,例如,浮动螺母组件可用于将汽车部件(诸如电池)固定于车身上。现有的浮动螺母组件包括限位盒和螺母,限位盒限定位于其内部的腔,螺母被限制于限位盒内。螺母能够在限位盒内移动,以实现螺母的浮动。发明人注意到,浮动螺母组件在与螺栓装配时,装配效率较低,并且装配精度较低。发明人研究发现,导致装配效率较低及装配精度较低的原因在于,螺母在限位盒内的移动空间较大,也即,螺母的浮动空间较大。螺母在限位盒内的移动空间较大,导致螺栓在与螺母配合时,螺母容易发生位置偏移,浪费装配时间,并且影响装配精度。
鉴于此,发明人经过深入研究,设计了一种浮动螺母组件,通过限位支架与底座可拆卸地连接,在限位支架与底座之间形成用于容纳螺母的限位空间,螺母被限制于限位空间内,在限位支架和螺母中的一者上设置有至少两个凸起,另一者上设置有至少两个定位孔,凸起与定位孔一一对应,凸起插设于定位孔内,凸起与定位孔间隙配合和/或弹性配合。
在这样的浮动螺母组件中,限位支架与底座连接后,通过限位支架与底座之间形成的限位空间容纳螺母,以将螺母限制于限位空间内。在凸起与定位孔间隙配合的实施例中,螺母能够相对于限位支架在垂直于螺纹孔的轴向的平面内移动,以实现螺母的浮动;在凸起与定位孔弹性配合的实施例中,基于弹性特性,螺母能够相对于限位支架在垂直于螺纹孔的轴向的平面内移动,以实现螺母的浮动;在凸起与定位孔间隙配合和弹性配合的实施例中,螺母能够相对于限位支架在垂直于螺纹孔的轴向的平面内移动,并且移动范围较大,以实现螺母的浮动。当螺母相对于限位支架在垂直于螺纹孔的轴向的平面内移动时,由于凸起与定位孔的配合,使得螺母的浮动空间较小,也即在螺母与螺栓的装配过程中螺母的移动量较小,以保证螺母与螺栓的装配效率及连接精度。同时,至少两个凸起与至少两个定位孔对应,能够防止螺母相对于限位支架转动,进一步保证螺母与螺栓的装配效率及连接精度。
本申请实施例公开的用电设备可以为但不限于车辆、船舶或飞行器等用电设备。以下实施例为了方便说明,以本申请一实施例的一种用电设备为车辆为例进行介绍。
在车辆的装配过程中,电池安装于车身的底部,电池通过浮动螺母组件与螺栓的配合方式固定于车身梁,以便于电池的装配与拆卸。
参见图1,图1为根据本申请一些实施例的浮动螺母组件100的分解图,图2为根据本申请一些实施例的浮动螺母组件100的剖视图一,图3为根据本申请一些实施例的浮动螺母组件100的剖视图二。根据本申请的一些实施例,如图1-图3所示,本申请提供了一种浮动螺母组件100,浮动螺母组件100包括螺母10及限位支架20。 螺母10开设有螺纹孔11。限位支架20用于与底座500可拆卸地连接,在限位支架20与底座500之间形成用于容纳螺母10的限位空间。限位支架20与螺母10中的一者上设置有至少两个凸起31,另一者上设置有至少两个定位孔32,凸起31与定位孔32一一对应,凸起31插设于定位孔32,凸起31与定位孔32间隙配合和/或弹性配合。
底座500为浮动螺母组件100的安装基础。限位支架20为用于限制螺母10的位置部件。当浮动螺母组件100用于汽车部件的装配时,底座500可以为车辆的车身梁。限位支架20与底座500连接后,螺母10收容于限位空间内,螺母10被限制在限位空间内。螺母10为用于与螺栓连接的部件,以实现待连接的两个部件的快速装配。
可选地,如图2所示,限位支架20与底座500可以通过螺钉40连接,便于装配与拆卸。在一些实施例中,限位支架20与底座500的连接方式可以为卡接、插接等。
限位支架20与螺母10中的一者上设置有至少两个凸起31,另一者上设置有两个定位孔32,可以为两种形式,例如,限位支架20上设置有至少两个凸起31,螺母10上设置有至少两个定位孔32;或者,限位支架20上设置有至少两个定位孔32,螺母10上设置有至少两个凸起31。
图中,凸起31的延伸方向与螺纹孔11的轴向平行。
凸起31与定位孔32一一对应,也即,每个凸起31插入一个定位孔32内。凸起31与定位孔32间隙配合和/或弹性配合,可以为多种形式,例如,凸起31与定位孔32间隙配合,或者,凸起31与定位孔32弹性配合,又或者,凸起31与定位孔32间隙配合和弹性配合。
在凸起31与定位孔32间隙配合的实施例中,螺母10能够相对于限位支架20在垂直于螺纹孔11的轴向的平面内移动,以实现螺母10的浮动;在凸起31与定位孔32弹性配合的实施例中,基于弹性特性,螺母10能够相对于限位支架20在垂直于螺纹孔11的轴向的平面内移动,以实现螺母10的浮动;在凸起31与定位孔32间隙配合和弹性配合的实施例中,螺母10能够相对于限位支架20在垂直于螺纹孔11的轴向的平面内移动,并且移动范围较大,以实现螺母10的浮动。
根据本申请实施例的浮动螺母组件100,通过限位支架20和底座500之间形成的限位空间容纳螺母10,以将螺母10限制于限位空间内;通过凸起31与定位孔32之间的间隙配合和/或弹性配合,能够实现螺母10相对于限位支架20的浮动,当螺母10相对于限位支架20在垂直于螺纹孔11的轴向的平面内移动时,由于凸起31与定位孔32配合,使得螺母10的浮动空间较小,也即在螺母10与螺栓的装配过程中螺母10的移动量较小,以保证螺母10与螺栓的装配效率及连接精度。同时,至少两个凸起31与至少两个定位孔32对应,能够防止螺母10相对于限位支架20转动,进一步保证螺母10与螺栓的装配效率及连接精度。
需要指出的是,定位孔32的横截面可以为但不限于圆形,还可以为矩形等规则图形,只要能够满足凸起31和定位孔32配合后,螺母10能够相对于限位支架20在垂直于螺纹孔11的轴向的平面内移动即可。对应的,凸起31的横截面可以与定位孔32的横截面轮廓匹配,也即,凸起31的外周面各处到定位孔32的孔壁的距离相等。
为了便于描述,本申请以下实施例以定位孔32为圆形孔,凸起31为柱状结构 为例进行介绍。为了保证螺母10在垂直于螺纹孔11的轴向的平面内各方向的移动量相同,定位孔32的轴线与凸起31的轴线共线。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,凸起31与定位孔32弹性配合,凸起31被配置为能够在其径向上发生弹性变形。
凸起31可以为柱状结构,凸起31的延伸方向平行于螺纹孔11的轴向;凸起31的径向是指在垂直于凸起31的延伸方向的平面(也即垂直于螺纹孔11的进行的平面)内,经过凸起31的轴线的方向。凸起31的径向垂直于螺纹孔11的轴向。
凸起31与定位孔32弹性配合,是指凸起31和定位孔32的孔壁中至少一者受力后发生形变,以允许螺母10相对于限位支架20在受力方向上产生位置移动,也即,螺母10相对于限位支架20在垂直于螺纹孔11的轴向的平面内移动。凸起31与定位孔32弹性配合,可以为凸起31能够在其径向上发生弹性形变,或者,也可以为定位孔32的孔壁能够在定位孔32的径向上发生弹性形变,又或者,还可以为凸起31能够在凸起31的径向上发生弹性形变并且定位孔32的孔壁能够在定位孔32的径向上发生弹性形变。在一些实施例中,凸起31被配置为能够在其径向上发生弹性变形,以允许螺母10相对于限位支架20在垂直于螺纹孔11的轴向的平面内产生位置移动。
通过凸起31在其径向上的弹性形变,以便于螺母10相对于限位支架20移动,实现螺母10的浮动。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,至少两个凸起31绕螺母10的轴线间隔分布。
螺母10的轴线为螺纹孔11的轴线。至少两个凸起31绕螺母10的轴线间隔分布,是指所有的凸起31围绕螺母10的轴线设置。凸起31与定位孔32一一对应,至少两个凸起31绕螺母10的轴线间隔分布,对应地,至少两个定位孔32绕螺母10的轴线间隔分布。换句话说,所有的定位孔32围绕螺母10的轴线设置。例如,图4为根据本申请一些实施例的限位支架20的结构示意图(仰视方向),在定位孔32设置于螺母10的实施例中,如图4所示,定位孔32的数量为四个,四个定位孔32绕螺母10的轴线间隔分布。
所有的凸起31绕螺母10的轴线间隔设置,使得螺母10与限位支架20配合稳定,保证螺母10在垂直于螺母10的轴线的平面内任意方向均能够相对于限位支架20移动,满足螺母10的浮动需求。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,凸起31与定位孔32接触的部分由弹性材料制成。
凸起31插设于定位孔32内,凸起31与定位孔32接触是指凸起31的外周面与定位孔32的孔壁接触。凸起31与定位孔32接触的部分由弹性材料制成,是指凸起31的外周面由弹性材料制成,也即,凸起31的用于与定位孔32的孔壁接触的表面由弹性材料制成。在凸起31的外周面由弹性材料制成的情况下,当凸起31与定位孔32接触时,随着凸起31的外周面与定位孔32的孔壁的抵接受力,凸起31的外周面能够在凸起31的径向上发生弹性形变,以使得螺母10能够相对于限位支架20在垂直螺纹孔11的轴向的平面内移动。
当凸起31为复合式结构时,凸起31包括基体和弹性材料层,弹性材料层套设于基体的外周面,基体可以由刚性材料制成,弹性材料层用于与定位孔32的孔壁接触。当凸起31为一体式结构时,凸起31整体可以由弹性材料制成。
凸起31的用于与定位孔32接触的部分由弹性材料制成,以便于凸起31的与定位孔32接触的部分发生弹性形变,满足螺母10相对于限位支架20移动的需求,实现螺母10的浮动。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,定位孔32的孔壁由弹性材料制成,例如定位孔32的孔壁设置有弹性层。当凸起31与定位孔32接触且对定位孔32的孔壁施加作用力时,设置于孔壁的弹性层受力发生形变,从而允许螺母10相对于限位支架20移动一定的距离,实现螺母10的浮动。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,如图4所示,凸起31可以包括多个子凸起311,多个子凸起311绕凸起31的轴线间隔设置。
每个子凸起311沿凸起31的延伸方向设置,每个子凸起311的一端为自由端,使得子凸起311为悬臂结构。当定位孔32的孔壁抵接于子凸起311时,随着子凸起311的受力增加,子凸起311在凸起31的径向上发生形变,从而使得螺母10相对于限位支架20浮动。例如,在凸起31设置在限位支架20、定位孔32设置在螺母10的实施例中,子凸起311的一端连接于限位支架20,子凸起311的另一端为自由端。
需要指出的是,在凸起31与定位孔32弹性配合的实施例中,定位孔32可以为盲孔,也可以为通孔。
图5为根据本申请一些实施例的凸起31与定位孔32间隙配合示意图。根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,如图5所示,凸起31与定位孔32间隙配合,凸起31穿过定位孔32,凸起31的端部设置有弹性阻挡件33,弹性阻挡件33用于限制凸起31沿定位孔32的轴向从定位孔32中脱离。
凸起31穿过定位孔32,定位孔32为贯穿限位支架20或螺母10的通孔。例如,图6为根据本申请另一些实施例的限位支架20的结构示意图(仰视方向),在凸起31设置于限位支架20、定位孔32设置于螺母10的实施例中,如图5和图6所示,定位孔32沿螺纹孔11的轴向贯穿螺母10,凸起31的一端连接于限位支架20,弹性阻挡件33位于凸起31的远离限位支架20的一端,弹性阻挡件33位于定位孔32外,弹性阻挡件33与限位支架20位于定位孔32的两侧。又例如,在凸起31设置于螺母10、定位孔32设置于限位支架20的实施例中,定位孔32沿螺纹孔11的轴向贯穿限位支架20,凸起31的一端连接于螺母10,弹性阻挡件33位于凸起31的远离螺母10的一端,弹性阻挡件33位于定位孔32外,弹性阻挡件33与限位支架20位于定位孔32的两侧。
弹性阻挡件33的尺寸大于定位孔32的直径,从而阻挡凸起31沿定位孔32的轴向从定位孔32中脱离。
凸起31与定位孔32间隙配合,以满足螺母10的浮动需求。通过在凸起31的端部设置弹性阻挡件33,在凸起31与定位孔32配合后,弹性阻挡件33能够限制凸起31沿定位孔32的轴向从定位孔32中脱离,保证浮动螺母组件100在移动过程中限位 支架20和螺母10组合在一起,避免部件遗失。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,如图5和图6所示,弹性阻挡件33套设于凸起31,弹性阻挡件33的外周面包括第一导向斜面331和第二导向斜面332,第一导向斜面331与第二导向斜面332沿定位孔32的轴向相对设置。

在凸起31设置于限位支架20的实施例中,第一导向斜面331相对于第二导向斜面332远离限位支架20,第一导向斜面331和第二导向斜面332的导向功能具体为:在凸起31插入定位孔32的过程中,当第一导向斜面331与定位孔32的端部接触时,第一导向斜面331先与定位孔32的孔壁接触,随着凸起31沿定位孔32的轴向朝向定位孔32移动,弹性阻挡件33发生弹性形变,第一导向斜面331与定位孔32的孔壁的接触面积逐渐增大,直至弹性阻挡件33完全位于定位孔32内;凸起31继续沿着定位孔32的轴向移动,弹性阻挡件33逐渐离开定位孔32,直至弹性阻挡件33完全位于定位孔32外,实现凸起31插入定位孔32。在凸起31脱离定位孔32的过程中,第二导向斜面332先与定位孔32的孔壁接触,随着凸起31沿定位孔32的轴向移动,弹性阻挡件33发生弹性形变,第二导向斜面332与定位孔32的孔壁的接触面积逐渐增大,直至弹性阻挡件33完全位于定位孔32内;凸起31继续沿着定位孔32的轴向移动,弹性阻挡件33移动至定位孔32的靠近限位支架20的一端并逐渐离开定位孔32,当弹性阻挡件33完全离开定位孔32后,凸起31与定位孔32脱离。
通过第一导向斜面331和第二导向斜面332的导向功能,能够便于弹性阻挡件33从定位孔32的轴向两端进入定位孔32,提高了装配和维修效率。另一方面,第一导向斜面331和第二导向斜面332的导向功能,减小了弹性阻挡件33进入定位孔32的阻力,能够提高弹性阻挡件33的使用寿命,避免弹性阻挡件33进入定位孔32的阻力过大而导致弹性阻挡件33损坏。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,凸起31的端部和/或定位孔32的端部设置有用于引导凸起31插入定位孔32的导向部。
凸起31端部和/或定位孔32的端部设置有导向部,是指:凸起31的端部可以设置有导向部,或者,定位孔32的端部可以设置有导向部,又或者,凸起31的端部和定位孔32的端部可以均设置有导向部。导向部可以为倒角,起到导向的功能,以引导凸起31插入定位孔32,减小凸起31进入定位孔32的难度。
通过导向部的导向功能,便于凸起31插入定位孔32内,便于实现限位支架20与螺母10的装配。

可选地,支架本体21可以为平板,结构简单。

根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,如图4和图6所示,连接臂22包括第一段221和第二段222,第一段221与支架本体21的边缘连接,第二段222从第一段221沿螺纹孔11的径向朝向背离螺纹孔11的轴线的方向延伸,第一段221与第二段222之间具有夹角,第二段222用于与底座500可拆卸地连接。

限位支架20包括支架本体21和连接臂22,连接臂22连接于支架本体21的边缘,连接臂22用于与底座500可拆卸地连接,支架本体21与底座500之间形成用于容纳螺母10的限位空间。支架本体21设置有通孔211。支架本体21设置有四个凸起31,四个凸起31绕通孔211的轴线间隔分布。连接臂22的数量为两个,两个连接臂22关于通孔211的轴线对称设置。
螺母10包括螺母本体12和凸缘13,螺母本体12设置有螺纹孔11,凸缘13形成于螺母本体12的外周面,凸缘13上设置有四个定位孔32,四个定位孔32绕螺母10的轴线间隔分布。螺纹孔11的轴向为螺母10的轴线方向。
如图2和图3所示,螺母10收纳于限位空间内,凸缘13位于支架本体21和底座500之间,支架本体21通过通孔211套设于螺母本体12,通孔211的轴线与螺母10的轴线共线。凸起31与定位孔32一一对应,凸起31插设于定位孔32内。凸起31与定位孔32弹性配合,凸起31被配置为能够在其径向上发生弹性形变。螺母10能够相对于限位支架20在垂直于螺纹孔11的轴向的平面内移动。
通过限位支架20和底座500之间形成的限位空间容纳螺母10,以将螺母10限制于限位空间内;通过凸起31与定位孔32之间的弹性配合,能够实现螺母10相对于限位支架20浮动,当螺母10相对于限位支架20在垂直于螺纹孔11的轴向的平面内移动时,由于凸起31与定位孔32配合,使得螺母10的浮动空间较小,也即在螺母10与螺栓600的装配过程中螺母10的移动量较小,以保证螺母10与螺栓600的装配效率及连接精度。同时,四个凸起31与四个定位孔32对应,能够防止螺母10相对于限位支架20转动,进一步保证螺母10与螺栓600的装配效率及连接精度。
虽然已经参考优选实施例对本申请进行了描述,但在不脱离本申请的范围的情况下,可以对其进行各种改进并且可以用等效物替换其中的部件。尤其是,只要不存在结构冲突,各个实施例中所提到的各项技术特征均可以任意方式组合起来。本申请并不局限于文中公开的特定实施例,而是包括落入权利要求的范围内的所有技术方案。
