  • an axial load is applied to the assembly 10, for example, by tightening of the assembly on a threaded fastener (not illustrated) , the respective peripheral surfaces 22, 34 engage to create a wedging effect, wherein the threaded inner surface 24 of the locking washer is thrust against the thread of the fastener (not illustrated) on which the assembly is being tightened so as to grip the thread and inhibit loosening due to vibration.
  • the wedging effect is further enhanced by forming the two halves 26 of the locking washer 18 in such a way that, prior to the application of an axial load, gaps 36 exists between the two halves so that when the axial load is applied the gaps 36 allow the two halves to move towards each other due to the wedging effect.
  • the thrust member 32 is provided with an outer circumferential gripping surface 38 of similar shape to an outer circumferential gripping surface of the head portion 12, so that the thrust member 32 can be gripped by a fastening tool and rotated together with the head portion 12 of the assembly.
  • the outer surface 38 of the thrust member 32 and the outer surface of the head portion 12 may both be toothed, or may have a series of flats as in a conventional hexagon nut.

  • the strength with which the locking washer is thrust against the thread of the fastener by the wedging effect can be limited to a maximum by carefully designing the angle of inclination of the outer and inner peripheral surfaces 22, 34 and the size of the gaps 36 between the two halves 26 of the locking washer 18.
  • the torque required to tighten the nut assembly will not increase indefinitely due to the wedging effect as the axial load on the locking washer 18 increases.
  • the angle of inclination of the peripheral surfaces 22, 34 is designed so that the wedging effect does not become significant or come into play until the maximum torque is applied during, for example, the last turn of the head portion 12 during tightening.
  • the torque required to tighten the nut assembly 10 will continue to increase until the required pretensioning of the bolt or stud is achieved, due to the friction between the thread of the threaded portion 14 of the nut assembly and the thread of the bolt or stud.
  • the locking member 18 of this embodiment is formed in two halves 26 having gaps 36 therebetween.
  • the locking member 18 may also be formed in one piece and made from a resilient material, for example, a plastics material such as nylon, which can accommodate an inwards movement of the locking member as it is thrust against the thread of the fastener on which the assembly is being tightened, due to the wedging effect.
  • the locking member 18 when the locking member 18 is formed in two or more pieces with gaps therebetween it can be made from any suitable material, for example metal, since the inwards movement of the locking member as it is thrust against the thread of the fastener due to the wedging effect, is accommodated by the gaps.
  • the locking member may be formed in two or more pieces with one or more gaps therebetween, and need not be in the form of a washer, but may comprise two or more pieces uniformly spaced apart so as to grip the bolt or stud uniformly about its circumference when an axial load is applied. Furthermore, it is not essential that the locking member 18 be provided with an internal thread on its inner surface 24.
  • the locking member 18 is formed of resilient plastics material, an internal thread may be cut in the inner surface 24 when the nut assembly 10 is screwed onto the thread of a bolt or stud, as with a conventional NYLOX nut. It is also not essential that the locking member be made non-rotatable with respect to the head portion 12.
  • the thrust member 32 is formed with an internal diameter slightly greater than the outer diameter of the thread of the bolt or stud on which the assembly 10 turns. Hence the thrust member 32 is always free to move axially with respect to the head portion 12.
  • the thrust member 32 is also provided with an internal thread and is screwed onto the thread of the bolt or stud with the threaded portion 14. In this alternative embodiment it becomes necessary to rotate (screw) the thrust member relative to the head portion 12 (and locking member 18) or vice versa in order to apply an axial load to the locking member 18 and bring the wedging effect into play.
  • the assembly can first be tightened on the bolt or stud by turning the head portion 12 and thrust member 18 with the torque required to achieve the necessary hold down pressure, and then as a second step, the head portion 12 is turned whilst the thrust member 32 is held stationary to apply an axial load to the locking member 18 to bring the wedging effect into play.
  • the head portion 12 is turned whilst the thrust member 32 is held stationary to apply an axial load to the locking member 18 to bring the wedging effect into play.
  • the entire self-locking nut assembly 10 is held together in its assemble condition by suitable means whereby the annual member 44, at least, is free to rotate with respect to the head portion 12 of the assembly.
  • the self-locking nut assembly of the invention is particularly suitable for replacing a conventional wheel nut, which is frequently subject to vibration and/or cyclic loading.
  • the illustrated embodiment of the self-locking nut assembly can be manually screwed onto a bolt or stud until finger tight.
  • the assembly only needs to be rotated a small distance, once it is seated snugly against the object to be fastened, in order to bring the wedging effect into play.
  • Figure 4 illustrates another embodiment of the self-locking nut assembly 60 according to the invention.
  • inwards movement of an inner surface 62 of a locking member 64 is achieved in a different manner from the wedging effect of the first embodiment.
  • the self-locking nut assembly 60 of this embodiment comprises a head portion 66 for tightening and loosening the assembly on a bolt or stud (not shown) and an internal threaded portion 68, provided in connection with the head portion.

  • this spaced apart configuration of the respective side surfaces is created by the lock washer having a radially curved cross section, with the first and second side surface being formed on the concave and convex sides of the washer 64 respectively.
  • This flattening of the lock washer 64 causes the inner surface 62 of the lock washer to move inwardly so that, in use, the inner surface 64 is forced against the thread of the fastener (not shown) on which the assembly 60 is being tightened, so as to grip the thread and inhibit loosening due to vibration.
  • the lock washer 64 is accommodated within a recess 74 in the under-surface of the head portion 66 of the assembly.
  • the recess 74 prevents any outwards movement of the outer peripheral surface of the washer during the application of a compressive load.
  • the same effect can be achieved by forming the lock washer in a frusto-conical configuration.
  • the first side surface may be formed proximate an outer peripheral edge of the lock washer, whilst the second side surface is formed proximate an inner peripheral edge of the lock washer.
  • said first side surface may be formed proximate an inner peripheral edge of the lock washer and the second side surface may be formed proximate an outer peripheral edge of the lock washer.
  • the lock washer is preferably located within a recess formed in the under-surface of the head portion of the assembly, so that the flattening effect caused by an axial compressive load produces a radial inwards movement of the inner surface of the locking member to force it against the thread of the fastener on which the assembly is being tightened.
  • the lock washer is of oval or elliptical cross-section.
  • the resilient nature of the lock washer causes it to return to its non-planar configuration in which the first and second side surfaces return to their original positions.
  • the inner surface of the lock washer then moves radially outwardly to release the thread of the fastener on which the assembly is being tightened. Hence the nut assembly automatically unlocks itself during loosening.
  • the self-locking effect can be supplemented by incorporating a conventional NYLOX lock washer in the assembly.
  • the lock washer is fitted to the back of the nut.
  • Figure 5 illustrates an alternative embodiment of the self-locking nut assembly which operates in a similar manner to that of Figures 1 to 3, except that it does not have a separate thrust member.

Abstract

Un assemblage d'écrou auto-bloquant (10) pouvant résister à un desserrage inadvertant dû aux vibrations ou à une charge cyclique, est décrit. L'assemblage (10) comprend une tête (12) conçue pour recevoir une clé ou une pince pour serrer ou desserrer l'assemblage sur un boulon ou un goujon, et une partie interne taraudée (14) solidaire de la tête (12). L'assemblage comprend de plus un élément de blocage (18) sous la forme d'une rondelle de blocage comprenant deux moitiés (26) de forme semi-circulaire. L'élément de blocage (18) possède une surface périphérique externe (22) inclinée par rapport à l'axe de rotation (16) de la tête (12), ainsi qu'une surface interne (24). Un élément de poussée (32) appuie contre la rondelle de blocage (18) et possède une surface périphérique interne (34) conçue pour buter sur la surface périphérique externe (22) de la rondelle de blocage (18). Lorsqu'une poussée axiale est appliquée sur l'élément de blocage (18), par exemple, en serrant l'assemblage sur une fixation filetée, les surfaces périphériques respectives viennent en butée pour provoquer un effet de coincement grâce auquel la surface interne (24) de l'élément de blocage (18) est poussée contre le filetage de la fixation sur laquelle l'assemblage est serré, de manière à serrer le filetage et empêcher le desserrage dû aux vibrations.
