Detailed ways

As shown in Figure 2, it is the design concept of this basic unit of the sleeve of the present invention, that is, the sleeve needs:

First of all, according to the size and shape of the nut, design the sinking groove of the corresponding shape to fix the nut and prevent it from rotating during assembly;

It is required that the depth of the sinking groove should be the minimum thickness required to prevent the nut from rotating;

Design a chamfered slope on the edge of the sink to facilitate the insertion of the nut;

Design a counterbore slightly larger than the size of the screw to avoid screwing in the screw head;

Different forms of long grooves are milled on the sleeve to make the structure of the fixing nut have a certain degree of elasticity, which is suitable for the problem that the nut cannot be taken out of the sleeve after assembly due to many factors such as machining accuracy and over-positioning. ;

The depth of the long groove ensures that the nut fixing structure has a certain degree of elasticity, but it can also ensure relative rigidity to prevent rotation during nut assembly;

The shape of the sleeve is determined by the space in the assembly site, and it should be as small as possible while ensuring the structural strength and rigidity; the material of the sleeve is selected from metal materials such as stainless steel, and plastic nuts and screws can also be made of non-metallic materials;

In the multi-nut assembly, in order to facilitate fixing the sleeve on the base, different connection methods can be designed to fix the base (in this example, it is designed as an interference shaft form and an interference fit with the base). On the general-purpose multi-nut assembly base, the fixing of the sleeve and the base can adopt a flexible connection method that is easy to adjust;

On the multi-nut assembly base, design a positioning and supporting structure suitable for connecting workpieces such as veneers, so as to facilitate the supporting and positioning of the workpiece (in the following example, the form of positioning columns and supporting columns is used).

In the embodiment of the present invention, a nut fixing device is formed by using a sleeve and a base. As shown in Figure 1, it is a schematic structural diagram of the nut fixing device according to the embodiment of the present invention. The whole device includes six M3 nut fixing sleeves 2 and a base 3, and is also equipped with 2 positioning columns 1 and 2 Support column (not marked in the figure).

As shown in Figure 2, it is a schematic structural view of the sleeve. The sleeve 2 is cylindrical, and its upper and lower parts are 21mm and 7.5mm respectively; the diameter of its upper end surface is 7.5mm, and the diameter of its lower end surface is 6mm. The top of the sleeve 2 is provided with a fixing groove 21, the shape of which is shown in the top view 212 in Figure 2. In this embodiment, an M3 hex nut is used as an example, the diameter of which is 6.38 mm, and the depth is 1.5 mm to prevent the nut from Rotation; the edge of the fixing groove 21 is provided with a chamfered slope 211, which is convenient for picking and placing the nut. The bottom of the fixing groove 21 is connected with a counterbore 22, the depth of which is 0.5 mm larger than that of the screw, for the reserved space when the screw is screwed in, which is 4 mm in this embodiment, and the diameter of the counterbore 22 is 4 mm. Connected with the bottom of the counterbore 22, there is an elastic groove 23. The elastic groove 23 is in the shape of a line. The diameter may be 3.5mm. The function of the elastic groove 23 is to make the entire sleeve structure have a certain degree of elasticity, so as to adapt to the problems that the nuts cannot be taken out from the sleeve 2 after assembly due to machining accuracy, over-positioning and many other factors after the assembly of multiple nuts. The bottom of the sleeve 2 is provided with a first assembly column 24, the sleeve is tightly fixed to the base through the first assembly column 24 by means of the shoulder provided on it, and the structure and size of the first assembly column 24 can be determined according to the base There are certain changes depending on the connection method. The overall size of the sleeve 2 changes with the space of the assembly site, and it should be as small as possible under the condition of ensuring the structural strength and rigidity. The material of the sleeve can be selected from metal materials such as stainless steel, and plastic nuts and screws can also be non-woven. Made of metal material.

As shown in Figure 3, it is a structural schematic diagram of the base 3, which is provided with 10 assembly holes, of which: 6 are used for fixing the sleeve 2; 2 are used for fixing the positioning column 1; 2 are used for Fixing of support column 4. In multi-nut assembly, in order to fix the sleeve 2 on the base 3, different connection methods can be designed to fix the base 3. In this embodiment, the form of the interference shaft is used for interference fit with the base.

As shown in Figure 4, it is a structural schematic diagram of the positioning column, and its upper part is a positioning head 41, which plays a standard positioning role; a supporting surface 42 is provided to place components such as veneers together with the supporting column; the lower part is provided with a second assembly column 43, Its length is 7.5 mm, relying on the shoulder provided on it, it is closely fixed with the base through the second assembly column 43, and its structure and size can be changed according to the different connection methods with the base. The diameter of the whole positioning column is 8mm, the diameter of the assembly column is 6mm, its overall height is 34mm, the height from the supporting surface 42 to the shoulder is 22mm, and the height of the positioning head 41 is 4.5mm. The function of the positioning column is to ensure accurate positioning of workpieces such as veneers or parts to be assembled. According to different components, the positioning method can be different. In this example, the positioning method required for locating the SS62FTB board is selected.

As shown in FIG. 5 , it is a structural schematic diagram of the supporting column, and its structure is similar to the above-mentioned positioning column, except that there is no positioning head structure, and the structure of the supporting surface 51 and the third assembly column 52 is still provided. Its overall height is 29.5mm and diameter is 8mm; among them, the assembly column is still 7.5mm and diameter is 6mm. The function of the support column is to place the veneer in the fixed frame stably together with the positioning column, so as to facilitate assembly.

Based on the structure of each part above, another embodiment of the nut fixing device is shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 . Wherein, as shown in FIG. 6 , the sleeve further includes a movable base. The movable base is also processed with a wedge which is convenient for the compaction of the briquetting block. As shown in FIG. 7 , it is a schematic structural diagram of the nut fixing device. On the base with certain regular arrangement of connecting screw holes, the sleeve is fixed by a pressing block, so as to meet the requirements of different workpiece assembly nut positions. Specifically, the pressing block compresses the sleeve on the base through the wedge of the movable base, and then connects the pressing block and the base with bolts through corresponding screw holes. Through this solution, the sleeve can be conveniently and quickly installed at different positions on the base, and is easy to disassemble. In actual assembly, when fast fixing the bottom nut, the principle of elasticity of the sleeve itself is mainly used to realize the fixation and pick-and-place of the nut.
