Description

雌ねじ構造Female thread structure

 本発明は、二つの雌ねじ同士を互いに結合させ得る雌ねじ構造に関する。 The present invention relates to a female screw structure that can couple two female screws to each other.

所謂緩み止めと称す類のねじは、多様な物が提案されている。しかしながらそれらは緩みを完全に防止する物ではなく、緩みの進行速度を遅らせることが出来るという物でありいわば緩み難いねじと分類される。この問題に鑑み、機械構造的に緩みを防止するように工夫し、完全な緩み防止を可能としたねじ構造を特許文献1に開示している。 Various types of screws called so-called loosening prevention have been proposed. However, they are not those that completely prevent loosening, but are those that can slow the rate of progress of loosening and are classified as screws that are difficult to loosen. In view of this problem, Patent Document 1 discloses a screw structure that is devised so as to prevent loosening in terms of mechanical structure and that can completely prevent loosening.

特に特許文献1に記載のねじ構造のうち、所謂ラチェット型の雌ねじ構造においては、対を成す二つの雌ねじ同士を、雄ねじ上の所要位置で互いに結合させると完全な結合状態を実現することが可能である。 In particular, in the so-called ratchet-type female screw structure among the screw structures described in Patent Document 1, it is possible to realize a complete coupled state by coupling two female screws forming a pair to each other at a required position on the male screw. It is.

PCT/JP2009/053092PCT / JP2009 / 053092

 斯かる特許文献1の図23,24等に記載の雌ねじは、互いに対向する両雌ねじのそれぞれの端面に形成されるラチェット構造部分が、それぞれ当該端面に対してほぼ垂直に凸設又は凹設された構造であり、一方のラチェットの谷部に他方のラチェットの山部が入り込む位置と当該雌ねじの締め付け量との関係上、適正な締め付けがなされていないと、当該ラチェットの山部の位置が、最大で、ラチェットにおける一ピッチ分だけずれる可能性があった。 In the female screw described in FIGS. 23, 24, etc. of Patent Document 1, ratchet structure portions formed on the respective end faces of the two female screws facing each other are provided so as to protrude or be recessed substantially perpendicularly to the respective end faces. In terms of the relationship between the position where the peak of the other ratchet enters the valley of the one ratchet and the tightening amount of the female screw, if the proper tightening is not performed, the position of the peak of the ratchet is At most, there was a possibility of deviation by one pitch in the ratchet.

 この一ピッチ分の回転位置ズレによってもたらされる軸方向の位置ズレ量は、ねじピッチを1.0mm、ラチェットピッチを10°と仮定すれば、最大で約0.028mmであり、ねじの精度や使途によっては公差の範囲内に収まり、或いは締結力による軸方向の弾性変形量に吸収され、実際には位置ズレや軸力変化を来すものではないということになるが、ねじピッチやラチェットピッチが大きくなればその分、軸方向における位置ズレ量も比例的に大きくなる。例えば、ねじピッチを3mm、ラチェットピッチを120°に設定した場合の軸方向における位置ズレ量は、最大で1mmとなる。 Assuming that the screw pitch is 1.0 mm and the ratchet pitch is 10 °, the axial positional shift caused by this one-pitch rotational position shift is about 0.028 mm at maximum. Depending on the condition, it is within the tolerance range or absorbed by the amount of elastic deformation in the axial direction due to the fastening force, and in reality it does not cause misalignment or change in axial force, but the screw pitch or ratchet pitch As the value increases, the amount of positional deviation in the axial direction also increases proportionally. For example, when the screw pitch is set to 3 mm and the ratchet pitch is set to 120 °, the positional deviation amount in the axial direction is 1 mm at the maximum.

ところで、この位置ズレを起こさないように締結するには、完全に締まっている位置からラチェットピッチにおいて、もう一ピッチ分だけ締め付けるようにすればよいが完全締結位置からのもう一ピッチ分の締め付け作業は困難となる。 By the way, in order to fasten it so as not to cause this misalignment, it is only necessary to tighten another pitch from the fully tightened position to the ratchet pitch. Will be difficult.

 本発明は、上述のような事情を解消するためのものであり、対を成す雌ねじ同士の結合状態が適当な締め付けトルクで容易に得られ、完全な締結状態を簡便に得ることが可能な雌ねじ構造を提供することを目的とする。 The present invention is for overcoming the above-described circumstances, and is a female screw capable of easily obtaining a complete fastening state by easily obtaining a coupled state between a pair of female screws with an appropriate tightening torque.

第一の雌ねじの螺旋溝と第二の雌ねじの螺旋溝のうち、一方が右回転の螺旋溝を成し、他方が左回転の螺旋溝を成すことを特徴としている。 One of the spiral groove of the first female screw and the spiral groove of the second female screw is a right-rotating spiral groove, and the other is a left-rotating spiral groove.

第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじの外径を異なるものに設定することを特徴としている。 The first female screw and the second female screw have different outer diameters.

本発明を適用して成る雌ねじ構造によれば、第一の雌ねじの一端に設けられ基端から先端にかけて縮径しその外周面に係合部を有する凸部が、第二の雌ねじの一端に設けられ開口面から底面にかけて縮径しその内周面に係合受部を有する凹部に嵌合されてこれら第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじとが雄ねじ上において互いに結合されるように構成されていることにより、これら第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじとが互いに接近してより深く凹部に対して凸部が嵌入する際に、第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじの相対回転と共に徐々により強い結合状態にすることが出来、その上、容易に係合部を係合受部に係合させることが可能であって、この係合状態では第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじとの間での相対的な逆回転を完全に防止することが出来る。また、係合部と係合受部との一係合位置から第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじの相対回転による更なる結合状態となる次段の係合位置への移行が著しく容易となる。 According to the female screw structure to which the present invention is applied, a convex portion provided at one end of the first female screw and having a diameter reduced from the proximal end to the distal end and having an engaging portion on the outer peripheral surface is provided at one end of the second female screw. The first female screw and the second female screw are coupled to each other on the male screw by being fitted in a recess having an engagement receiving portion on the inner circumferential surface thereof. Accordingly, when the first female screw and the second female screw approach each other and the convex portion is inserted deeper into the concave portion, the first female screw and the second female screw are gradually and gradually rotated together with the relative rotation of the first female screw and the second female screw. In addition, the engagement portion can be easily engaged with the engagement receiving portion, and in this engagement state between the first female screw and the second female screw. The relative reverse rotation at can be completely prevented. In addition, the transition from one engagement position of the engagement portion and the engagement receiving portion to the next-stage engagement position that is further coupled by relative rotation of the first female screw and the second female screw is significantly facilitated. .

また、第一の雌ねじの螺旋溝と第二の雌ねじの螺旋溝とを互いに異なるものとした場合、特に第一の雌ねじの螺旋溝のピッチと第二の雌ねじの螺旋溝のピッチとを互いに異なるものとし且つ第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじが互いに接近する相対回転方向に対しては回転が許容され、この逆回転に対しては回転が防止されるように、係合部と係合受部を共に対応する鋸歯状に設定したラチェット構造とした場合には、第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじとの間での相対的な逆回転を完全に防止することが出来るので、雄ねじ上の所要位置においては完全に緩みを防止することが容易に出来る。また、第一の雌ねじの螺旋溝と第二の雌ねじの螺旋溝のうち一方を右ねじに、他方を左ねじに設定し且つ第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじが互いに接近する相対回転方向に対しては回転が許容され、この逆回転に対しては回転が防止されるように、係合部と係合受部を共に対応する鋸歯状に設定したラチェット構造とした場合には、第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじとの間での相対的な逆回転を完全に防止することが出来るので、雄ねじ上の所要位置においては完全に緩みを防止することが容易に出来る。 When the spiral groove of the first female screw and the spiral groove of the second female screw are different from each other, the pitch of the spiral groove of the first female screw and the pitch of the spiral groove of the second female screw are particularly different from each other. The engagement portion and the engagement receiver are configured such that rotation is permitted in the relative rotation direction in which the first female screw and the second female screw approach each other, and rotation is prevented against this reverse rotation. In the case of a ratchet structure in which both parts are set in a corresponding sawtooth shape, the relative reverse rotation between the first female screw and the second female screw can be completely prevented, so It is easy to completely prevent loosening at the required position. In addition, one of the spiral groove of the first female screw and the spiral groove of the second female screw is set to the right screw, and the other is set to the left screw, and the first female screw and the second female screw are in a relative rotational direction in which they approach each other. In the case of a ratchet structure in which both the engagement portion and the engagement receiving portion are set in a corresponding serrated shape so that rotation is allowed and rotation is prevented against this reverse rotation, Since the relative reverse rotation between the female screw and the second female screw can be completely prevented, it is easy to completely prevent loosening at a required position on the male screw.

また、凸部を先端に向かって縮径させ、凹部を開口面に向かって拡径させたことにより鍛造を用いた製造においての金型の保ちや抜けが向上し、量産性が向上する。 Further, by reducing the diameter of the convex portion toward the tip and increasing the diameter of the concave portion toward the opening surface, the retention and removal of the mold in the manufacturing using forging is improved, and mass productivity is improved.

以下に本発明の雌ねじ構造の実施形態を詳細に説明する。本発明の雌ねじ構造は、対を成す第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじとを備える。勿論、ここでいう雌ねじとは、所謂ナットのように被締結体を所謂ボルト等の雄ねじ体との合わせで締結するような締結部材の他、被締結体自体に穿設された螺旋溝付き穴等も含むものである。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the female screw structure of the present invention will be described in detail. The female screw structure of the present invention includes a first female screw and a second female screw that form a pair. Needless to say, the female screw here means a spiral grooved hole formed in the fastened body itself in addition to a fastening member that fastens the fastened body together with a so-called bolt or other male threaded body such as a so-called nut. Etc. are also included.

第一の雌ねじは、その軸方向における一端側に、基端から先端にかけて縮径した凸部を有する。第二の雌ねじは、その軸方向における一端側に、端面から凹設され、その開口面から底面にかけて縮径した凹部を有する。この凸部と凹部は、互いに嵌合して、これら第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじとを互いに結合させるためのものである。 The first female screw has a convex portion having a reduced diameter from the proximal end to the distal end on one end side in the axial direction. The second female screw has a concave portion which is recessed from the end surface on one end side in the axial direction and whose diameter is reduced from the opening surface to the bottom surface. The convex portion and the concave portion are fitted with each other to couple the first female screw and the second female screw to each other.

凸部と凹部の何れか一方は、凸部を凹部に嵌合する際に、弾性的又は塑性的に変形させて嵌入させるように構成することが出来、特に弾性変形させながら嵌合するように構成した場合には、完全な緩み止め状態を得るのが容易となる。このように変形を伴う嵌合とするための構成としては、例えば、凸部の縦断面の外形を成す輪郭形状と、これに対応した凹部の縦断面の内形を成す輪郭形状とが互いに異なるように設定する。より具体的には、例えば、基端から先端にかけて縮径した凸部の外周面の軸方向に対する傾斜角と、開口面から底面にかけて縮径した凹部の内周面の軸方向に対する傾斜角とが、互いに異なるように設定することでも達成し得る。この場合、基端から先端にかけて縮径した凸部の外周面の軸方向に対する傾斜角に対し、開口面から底面にかけて縮径した凹部の内周面の軸方向に対する傾斜角を小さく設定することで、凹部に対する凸部の嵌入を徐々に進める際に自ずと凸部に対する凹部による締め付けが増大し次第に弾性変形を伴うようにすることが可能となる。更に、凸部の基端部の外径を、凹部の開口部の内径よりも大きく設定することで、より確実に弾性変形を伴うようにすることが出来る。 Either one of the convex part and the concave part can be configured to be elastically or plastically deformed and fitted when the convex part is fitted into the concave part, and particularly to be fitted while being elastically deformed. When configured, it becomes easy to obtain a complete locking state. As a configuration for fitting with deformation as described above, for example, the contour shape forming the outer shape of the vertical section of the convex portion and the contour shape forming the inner shape of the vertical section of the concave portion corresponding to this are different from each other. Set as follows. More specifically, for example, the inclination angle with respect to the axial direction of the outer peripheral surface of the convex portion reduced in diameter from the base end to the distal end and the inclination angle with respect to the axial direction of the inner peripheral surface of the concave portion reduced in diameter from the opening surface to the bottom surface. It can also be achieved by setting them differently. In this case, by setting the inclination angle with respect to the axial direction of the inner peripheral surface of the concave portion reduced in diameter from the opening surface to the bottom surface relative to the inclination angle with respect to the axial direction of the outer peripheral surface of the convex portion reduced in diameter from the base end to the distal end, When the convex portion is gradually inserted into the concave portion, the convex portion is naturally tightened by the concave portion and gradually becomes elastically deformed. Furthermore, by setting the outer diameter of the base end portion of the convex portion to be larger than the inner diameter of the opening portion of the concave portion, it is possible to cause elastic deformation more reliably.

凸部の外周面には、適宜数量の係合部が適宜位置に設けられる。この係合部は、凹部の内周面に設けられる係合受部に係合して第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじの相対的回転を機械構造的に防止するためのものである。この係合部の形状は特に限定されるものではないが、例えば、鋸歯状に形成することが出来る。この場合、第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじの相対的な一回転方向を許容し、その逆回転を防止するように設定するのが好ましく、係合受部に対する係合部の設定数量を同等とすれば、正転や逆転により大きなトルクを必要とするようになり、より強固にすることが可能であって、或いはこの設定数量を互いに異なるものとすれば、係合ピッチを細かく設定しつつも正転や逆転に要するトルクをより小さなものとすることが出来るようになる。 An appropriate number of engaging portions are provided at appropriate positions on the outer peripheral surface of the convex portion. This engaging portion is for mechanically preventing relative rotation of the first female screw and the second female screw by engaging with an engagement receiving portion provided on the inner peripheral surface of the recess. Although the shape of this engaging part is not specifically limited, For example, it can form in a sawtooth shape. In this case, it is preferable that the relative rotation direction of the first female screw and the second female screw is allowed and the reverse rotation thereof is prevented, and the set quantity of the engaging portion with respect to the engaging receiving portion is equivalent. Then, a large torque is required for forward rotation and reverse rotation, and it is possible to make it stronger, or if this set quantity is different from each other, the engagement pitch can be set finely. However, the torque required for normal rotation and reverse rotation can be made smaller.

凹部の内周面には、適宜数量の係合受部が適宜位置に設けられる。この係合受部は、凸部の外周面に設けられる係合部に係合して第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじの相対的回転を機械構造的に防止するためのものである。この係合受部の形状は特に限定されるものではないが、例えば、鋸歯状に形成することが出来る。この場合、第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじの相対的な一回転方向を許容し、その逆回転を防止するように設定するのが好ましく、係合受部に対する係合部の設定数量を同等とすれば、正転や逆転により大きなトルクを必要とするようになり、より強固にすることが可能であって、或いはこの設定数量を互いに異なるものとすれば、係合ピッチを細かく設定しつつも正転や逆転に要するトルクをより小さなものとすることが出来るようになる。 An appropriate number of engagement receiving portions are provided at appropriate positions on the inner peripheral surface of the recess. The engagement receiving portion is for mechanically preventing relative rotation of the first female screw and the second female screw by engaging with an engaging portion provided on the outer peripheral surface of the convex portion. Although the shape of this engagement receiving part is not specifically limited, For example, it can form in a sawtooth shape. In this case, it is preferable that the relative rotation direction of the first female screw and the second female screw is allowed and the reverse rotation thereof is prevented, and the set quantity of the engaging portion with respect to the engaging receiving portion is equivalent. Then, a large torque is required for forward rotation and reverse rotation, and it is possible to make it stronger, or if this set quantity is different from each other, the engagement pitch can be set finely. However, the torque required for normal rotation and reverse rotation can be made smaller.

 第一の雌ねじの螺旋溝は、適宜の寸法や構成とすることが可能であるが、ねじ締結体として緩み止め効果を得る上では、第一の雌ねじの螺旋溝と第二の雌ねじの螺旋溝とを、互いに異なるものに設定することが好ましく、例えば、第一の雌ねじの螺旋溝のピッチと第二の雌ねじの螺旋溝のピッチとが互いに異なるように設定することや、或いは、第一の雌ねじの螺旋溝と第二の雌ねじの螺旋溝のうち、一方が右回転の螺旋溝を成し、他方が左回転の螺旋溝を成すように設定することも可能である。勿論、第一の雌ねじの螺旋溝と第二の雌ねじの螺旋溝のうち、一方を右ねじとし、他方を左ねじとしつつ、これら右ねじのピッチと左ねじのピッチとを互いに異なるように設定することも可能である。これらのように、第一の雌ねじの螺旋溝と第二の雌ねじの螺旋溝とを互いに異なるように、即ち、ねじピッチが異なることやねじ向きが異なるという設定をすることにより、緩み方向の回転そのものを完全に防止することが出来る。つまり、凸部と凹部との嵌合関係による第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじとが離反する方向の相対回転を防止出来たとしても、これだけでは、一体に結合されたこれら二つの雌ねじ同士が、一体的に、緩み方向に回転し得るということがあるが、これを完全に無くすことが可能となるといえる。但し、同方向のねじ向きの第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじとにおいて、ねじピッチを異なるものに設定する場合には、雄ねじの先端側に比較上の細かいピッチの雌ねじ体を位置させることが望ましい。 The spiral groove of the first female screw can have an appropriate size and configuration. However, in order to obtain a loosening prevention effect as a screw fastening body, the spiral groove of the first female screw and the spiral groove of the second female screw Are preferably set to be different from each other, for example, the pitch of the spiral groove of the first female screw and the pitch of the spiral groove of the second female screw are set to be different from each other, or Of the spiral groove of the female screw and the spiral groove of the second female screw, it is also possible to set so that one of them forms a clockwise rotating spiral groove and the other forms a counterclockwise rotating spiral groove. Of course, one of the spiral groove of the first female screw and the spiral groove of the second female screw is a right-hand thread and the other is a left-hand thread, and the pitches of these right-hand thread and left-hand thread are set to be different from each other. It is also possible to do. As described above, the helical groove of the first female screw and the helical groove of the second female screw are set to be different from each other, that is, by setting the screw pitch to be different or the screw direction to be different. This can be completely prevented. That is, even if the relative rotation in the direction in which the first female screw and the second female screw are separated from each other due to the fitting relationship between the convex portion and the concave portion can be prevented, the two female screws that are integrally coupled with each other can be prevented. In some cases, it can rotate in the loosening direction, but this can be completely eliminated. However, when the screw pitch is set to be different between the first female screw and the second female screw in the same direction, the female screw body having a relatively fine pitch may be positioned on the tip side of the male screw. desirable.

 また、第一の雌ねじと第二の雌ねじとを、それぞれナット状に構成しつつ、それらの外径を互いに異なるように設定することが出来る。勿論、これらの雌ねじの外径は同等に設定することも可能であるが、異なる設定とすることにより、締結用工具等を使用して締結する際に、締結作業をより容易にすることが可能となる。 Further, the outer diameters of the first female screw and the second female screw can be set so as to be different from each other while being configured in a nut shape. Of course, the outer diameters of these female screws can be set equal, but by using different settings, it is possible to make the fastening work easier when fastening using a fastening tool or the like. It becomes.

 本発明を適用して成る実施例の雌ねじ構造1について添付図面を参照しながら詳細に説明する。本実施例の雌ねじ構造1は、図1に示すように、対を成す第一の雌ねじ2と第二の雌ねじ3の二つの雌ねじを備えて構成され、雄ねじB上においてより小さなトルクで第一の雌ねじ2と第二の雌ねじ3とを機械構造的により強固に結合させ得、これらの雌ねじ同士の相対的な一回転方向の回転を防止するためのものである。また、雄ねじB上の所要の螺合位置においては、緩み方向の回転を機械構造的に防止しすることで完全な緩み止め状態を得るためのものである。 The female thread structure 1 of the embodiment to which the present invention is applied will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. As shown in FIG. 1, the female screw structure 1 of the present embodiment is configured to include two female screws, a first female screw 2 and a second female screw 3, which form a pair, and the first screw with a smaller torque on the male screw B. The female screw 2 and the second female screw 3 can be more firmly coupled mechanically to prevent relative rotation of these female screws in one rotation direction. Further, at the required screwing position on the male screw B, a complete loosening prevention state is obtained by preventing the rotation in the loosening direction mechanically.

図1に示すように、本実施例の第一の雌ねじ2と第二の雌ねじ3は、それぞれ略正六角筒状を成す外形部2a,3aを有する所謂六角ナット状に形成され、第一の雌ねじ2の外形部2aの最大外径が第二の雌ねじ3の外形部3aの最小外径の寸法値以下に設定されている。また、第一の雌ねじ2の外形部2aの軸方向長は、第二の雌ねじ3の外形部3aの軸方向長よりも短く設定されている。勿論、これらのような外径や軸方向長等の寸法の設定は任意であり、例えば、外径寸法の大小関係は第一の雌ねじ2の外径を小さめに設定しなければならないというものではなく、第二の雌ねじ3の外径を小さめに設定することも可能であり、第二の雌ねじ3の軸方向長を短めに設定することも可能である。 As shown in FIG. 1, the first female screw 2 and the second female screw 3 of the present embodiment are formed in a so-called hexagonal nut shape having outer portions 2a and 3a each having a substantially regular hexagonal cylindrical shape. The maximum outer diameter of the outer portion 2 a of the female screw 2 is set to be equal to or smaller than the minimum outer diameter of the outer portion 3 a of the second female screw 3. Further, the axial length of the outer portion 2 a of the first female screw 2 is set shorter than the axial length of the outer portion 3 a of the second female screw 3. Of course, the setting of dimensions such as the outer diameter and the axial length as described above is arbitrary. For example, the relationship between the outer diameter dimensions is that the outer diameter of the first female screw 2 must be set smaller. Alternatively, the outer diameter of the second female screw 3 can be set to be small, and the axial length of the second female screw 3 can be set to be short.

図2に示すように、第一の雌ねじ2は、略正六角形状に形成された外形部2aの軸方向における一端部に凸設された凸部2bを有する。この凸部2bは、基端2cから先端3dにかけて縮径し、第一の雌ねじ2の軸を中心として回転対称に形成され、その内部は、外形部2aの内部に貫穿された螺旋溝付き穴2eであるねじ部2fが連続的に延設されて構成されている。勿論、この凸部2bの内部にはねじ部2fが形成されていなければならないというものではなく、雄ねじBが挿通し得るように貫通穴を有すればよいが、強度向上の観点から外形部2aの内部に設けられるねじ部2fと一連にねじ部が設定されることが好ましい。また、本実施例における第一の雌ねじ2のねじ部2fは、左回転の螺旋溝、即ち、左ねじとして設けられている。 As shown in FIG. 2, the first female screw 2 has a convex portion 2 b that protrudes from one end portion in the axial direction of the outer shape portion 2 a formed in a substantially regular hexagonal shape. The convex portion 2b is reduced in diameter from the proximal end 2c to the distal end 3d, is formed to be rotationally symmetric about the axis of the first female screw 2, and the inside thereof is a spiral grooved hole penetrating into the outer portion 2a. The screw part 2f which is 2e is continuously extended. Of course, the threaded portion 2f does not have to be formed inside the convex portion 2b, and a through hole may be provided so that the male screw B can be inserted. It is preferable that the screw portion is set in series with the screw portion 2f provided in the inside. Further, the thread portion 2f of the first female screw 2 in this embodiment is provided as a left-handed spiral groove, that is, a left-hand thread.

凸部2bの外周面は、軸方向に対して適宜の角度傾斜した傾斜角αに設定されて基端2cから先端2dにかけて縮径している。凸部2bの外周面には、鋸歯状に形成された係合部2gが等ピッチで十八箇所に設けられているが、この係合部2gの設定数量は少なくとも一つ設けられていればよく、特に限定されるものではなく、例えば、図3に示すように、120°の回転対称部位にそれぞれ一つずつ合計三つの係合部2gを設定してもよい。勿論、必ずしも回転対称である必要はない。この係合部2gの鋸歯形状は、凹部3bに対する嵌入時、左回転の進行方向において回転が許容され、逆回転が防止されるように歯の方向が設定される。歯幅は、基端2c側で広く、先端2dに向かって狭まるように設定されている。勿論、係合部2gの形状も特に限定されるものではなく、例えば、多条ねじのようにスパイラル状に形成されたものであってもよい。特に、スパイラル状の係合部2gとする場合には、スパイラルの回転向きをねじ部2fの回転向きに対して逆向きに設定すれば、雌ねじ同士の結合性をより一層高めることが出来る。 The outer peripheral surface of the convex portion 2b is set to an inclination angle α that is inclined at an appropriate angle with respect to the axial direction and is reduced in diameter from the proximal end 2c to the distal end 2d. On the outer peripheral surface of the convex portion 2b, there are eighteen engagement portions 2g formed in a sawtooth shape at an equal pitch. If at least one set number of the engagement portions 2g is provided, For example, as shown in FIG. 3, a total of three engaging portions 2 g may be set one by one in a 120 ° rotationally symmetric portion. Of course, it does not necessarily have to be rotationally symmetric. When the engagement portion 2g is inserted into the recess 3b, the tooth direction is set so that rotation is allowed in the direction of counterclockwise rotation and reverse rotation is prevented. The tooth width is set to be wide on the base end 2c side and narrow toward the tip 2d. Of course, the shape of the engaging portion 2g is not particularly limited, and for example, it may be formed in a spiral shape like a multi-thread screw. In particular, when the spiral engaging portion 2g is used, the connection between the female screws can be further enhanced by setting the rotational direction of the spiral to be opposite to the rotational direction of the screw portion 2f.

図4に示すように、第二の雌ねじ3は、略正六角形状に形成された外形部3aの軸方向における一端部に凹設された凹部3bを有する。この凹部3bは、底面3cから開口端3dにかけて拡径し、第二の雌ねじ3の軸を中心として回転対称に形成され、その内部は、外形部3aの内部に貫穿された螺旋溝付き穴3eに連通して貫通し、雄ねじBを挿通し得るように構成されている。また、本実施例における第二の雌ねじ3のねじ部3fは、右回転の螺旋溝、即ち、右ねじとして設けられている。ここで、これら第一の雌ねじ2と第二の雌ねじ3のねじ部2f,3fの谷径や山径或いは呼び径は互いに異なるものであってもよいが本実施例においては同じ径に設定されている。 As shown in FIG. 4, the second female screw 3 has a recess 3 b that is recessed at one end in the axial direction of the outer shape 3 a formed in a substantially regular hexagonal shape. The concave portion 3b expands from the bottom surface 3c to the opening end 3d, is formed rotationally symmetrically about the axis of the second female screw 3, and the inside of the concave portion 3b is a spiral grooved hole 3e penetrating into the outer portion 3a. The male screw B can be inserted therethrough. Further, the screw portion 3f of the second female screw 3 in the present embodiment is provided as a right-handed spiral groove, that is, a right screw. Here, the root diameter, the peak diameter, or the nominal diameter of the thread portions 2f, 3f of the first female screw 2 and the second female screw 3 may be different from each other, but are set to the same diameter in this embodiment. ing.

凹部3bの内周面は、軸方向に対して適宜の角度傾斜した傾斜角βに設定されて底面3cから開口端3dにかけて拡径しているが、本実施例においては特に傾斜角βは傾斜角αよりも小さくなるように設定されている。凹部3bの内周面には、凸部2bの外周面に形成された鋸歯状の係合部2gに対応した鋸歯状に形成された係合受部3gが等ピッチで十八箇所に設けられている。ここで、この係合受部3gの設定数量は少なくとも一つ設けられていればよく、特に限定されるものではなく、また必ずしも回転対称である必要はない。この係合受部3gの鋸歯形状は、凸部2bの嵌入時、第一の雌ねじ2との相対回転上、左回転の進行方向において回転が許容され、逆回転が防止されるように歯の方向が設定される。歯幅は、底面3c側で狭く、開口端3dに向かって広がるように設定されている。勿論、係合受部3gの形状も特に限定されるものではなく、例えば、多条ねじのようにスパイラル状に形成されたものであってもよい。特に、スパイラル状の係合受部3gとする場合には、スパイラルの回転向きをねじ部3fの回転向きに対して逆向きに設定すれば、雌ねじ同士の結合性をより一層高めることが出来る。 The inner peripheral surface of the recess 3b is set to an inclination angle β that is inclined at an appropriate angle with respect to the axial direction and expands from the bottom surface 3c to the opening end 3d. In this embodiment, the inclination angle β is particularly inclined. It is set to be smaller than the angle α. On the inner peripheral surface of the concave portion 3b, there are eighteen receiving portions 3g formed in a sawtooth shape corresponding to the serrated engaging portion 2g formed on the outer peripheral surface of the convex portion 2b at an equal pitch. ing. Here, at least one set quantity of this engagement receiving part 3g should just be provided, it does not specifically limit and it does not necessarily need to be rotationally symmetric. The sawtooth shape of the engagement receiving portion 3g is such that, when the convex portion 2b is fitted, the rotation of the tooth is allowed in the direction of the left rotation and the reverse rotation is prevented due to the relative rotation with the first female screw 2. Direction is set. The tooth width is set to be narrow on the bottom surface 3c side and widen toward the opening end 3d. Of course, the shape of the engagement receiving portion 3g is not particularly limited, and for example, it may be formed in a spiral shape like a multi-thread screw. In particular, in the case of the spiral engagement receiving portion 3g, the connectivity between the female screws can be further improved by setting the direction of rotation of the spiral to be opposite to the direction of rotation of the screw portion 3f.

以上の説明のように構成される本実施例の雌ねじ構造1にあっては、凸部2bの傾斜角αに対して凹部3bの傾斜角βが小さいために、図5に示すように、凹部3bの先端が凸部2bの軸方向における中腹に当接して弾性的又は塑性的な変形を伴わない限り、凹部3bに対して凸部2bが嵌入し切らないように構成されているので、結合時には幾分か凸部2bを変形させながら凹部3b内に圧入することになる。 In the internal thread structure 1 of the present embodiment configured as described above, since the inclination angle β of the concave portion 3b is smaller than the inclination angle α of the convex portion 2b, as shown in FIG. Since the convex portion 2b is not fitted into the concave portion 3b unless the tip of 3b abuts the middle of the convex portion 2b in the axial direction and is elastically or plastically deformed. Sometimes, the protrusion 2b is pressed into the recess 3b while deforming the protrusion 2b somewhat.

従って、凸部2bや凹部3bを弾性変形させながら嵌合させつつ、係合部2gと係合受部3gとを係合させた場合には、第一の雌ねじ2と第二の雌ねじ3とは強固な結合力によってこれらの相対的な右回転が完全に防止し得るようになる。 Therefore, when the engaging portion 2g and the engaging receiving portion 3g are engaged while the convex portion 2b and the concave portion 3b are fitted while being elastically deformed, the first female screw 2 and the second female screw 3 These relative clockwise rotations can be completely prevented by the strong binding force.

ここで、これら第一の雌ねじ2と第二の雌ねじ3は、それぞれ一軸を成す雄ねじBに螺合されて雄ねじB上の適宜の位置に在るが、この図6に示す雄ねじBは、ねじ部b上の同一領域上に、右回転の螺旋溝と左回転の螺旋溝を併有したものである(図示省略)。 Here, the first female screw 2 and the second female screw 3 are respectively screwed into the uniaxial male screw B and located at appropriate positions on the male screw B. The male screw B shown in FIG. In the same area on the part b, both a right-turning spiral groove and a left-turning spiral groove are provided (not shown).
