Detailed Description

To further illustrate the technical means and effects of the present invention adopted to achieve the predetermined objects, the following detailed description of the embodiments, structures, features and effects of the connector for preventing the abrasion of the ripple spring according to the present invention will be made with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

Please refer to fig. 1-6, which are schematic structural diagrams of the connector for preventing wear of the corrugated spring according to the present invention, the connector includes an outer housing 1 and a coupling nut 2 rotatably assembled outside the outer housing, a lock washer 5, a corrugated spring 6 and a triple-key retainer ring 7 are sequentially assembled between the outer housing 1 and the coupling nut 2 from front to back, wherein convex keys that are matched with key slots in the coupling nut to realize circumferential rotation prevention with the coupling nut are respectively disposed on the outer peripheral surfaces of the lock washer 5 and the triple-key retainer ring 7, the corrugated spring 8 is clamped between the lock retainer ring and the triple-key retainer ring 7, and rotates together with the washer and the retainer ring when the coupling nut rotates, such that there is no relative rotation between the front and back end surfaces of the corrugated spring and the retainer ring contacted therewith, thereby avoiding wear of the front and back end surfaces.

In the embodiment of the invention, the outer periphery of the outer shell 1 is provided with an annular boss, the front end surface of the annular boss is in stop fit with the inner step surface of the connecting nut, the rear end surface of the annular boss is in stop fit with the front end surface of the lock washer 5, the rear end surface of the annular boss is provided with a groove which is in fit locking with the bulge 13 on the front end surface of the lock washer 5, one side of the groove is a locking limiting part with a larger gradient and used for preventing the bulge 13 of the lock washer from passing, and the other side of the groove is an unlocking guide part with a smaller. In the embodiment of the invention, an insulating gasket is arranged between the annular boss on the periphery of the shell 1 and the inner step surface of the connecting nut so as to prevent the abrasion of the contact surface when the connecting nut and the shell rotate relatively.

In the embodiment of the invention, the outer peripheral surfaces of the locking washer and the three-key retainer ring are respectively provided with three convex keys, the tail part of the connecting nut is provided with three matched key grooves, and the locking washer and the three-key retainer ring are assembled according to the guidance of the key grooves.

In other embodiments of the invention, one or more convex keys are arranged on the outer peripheral surfaces of the locking washer and the triple key retainer ring. When the nut takes place to rotate, can drive three key retaining ring and lock washer through keyway cooperation nut and rotate simultaneously, lock washer arch 13 breaks away from the recess of shell body this moment, and corrugated spring takes place the compression this moment, provides the locking force, but its and lock washer can take place to rotate simultaneously with three key retaining ring, can not produce the friction.

The rear end face of the three-key check ring is blocked and limited by a limiting piece arranged on the connecting nut or the outer shell. In the embodiment of the invention, the limiting piece is a clamp spring 3 assembled in the connecting nut, and the clamp spring 3 is stopped at the rear end of a triple-key retainer ring 7, so that the lower part of the front end of the triple-key retainer ring 7 is in stop fit with a step surface on the outer shell 1, and the axial sliding space of the triple-key retainer ring is limited.

The front end of a clamping ring 4 which is sleeved on the outer shell 1 and axially limited with the outer shell 1 extends into the inner ring of the clamp spring 3 to prevent the clamping ring from shrinking and separating, and the front end face is blocked on the rear end face of a triple-key retaining ring 7 to realize the axial sliding limiting of the triple-key retaining ring. In the embodiment of the invention, the inner ring of the clamping ring 4 is provided with claws 12 which are matched with the annular grooves 11 on the outer shell for positioning. The shape of the claw includes but is not limited to a rectangle and a sheet type extending structure satisfying a cantilever beam structure. When the clamping ring is assembled, the clamping ring firstly passes through the thread part at the tail part of the outer shell, the clamping jaws extending out of the inner ring of the clamping ring are stressed and compressed, the clamping ring is sleeved in the threads and continuously moves until the clamping jaws reach the outer ring groove of the outer shell, the clamping jaws rebound to clamp the bottom surface of the ring groove, and at the moment, the clamping ring cannot fall off.

The outer peripheral surface of the rear end of the clamping ring 4 is in clearance fit with the inner peripheral surface of the connecting nut. Because the clamping ring is assembled in place, the tail part of the clamping ring is flush with the tail part of the connecting cap, and only one side surface of the whole part is exposed, when the clamping ring needs to be reworked and repaired, the clamping ring is damaged and is inconvenient to take out. The inner side of the tail part of the connecting nut 1 is also provided with a slot 8, the slot 8 and the peripheral surface of the clamping ring enclose a space for inserting a clamping ring taking and disassembling tool, a sharp tool or a screwdriver and the like can be used for extending into the slot at the tail part of the connecting nut to damage the clamping ring, then the clamping ring is taken out, and further the product is reworked or repaired.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the number of the slots is three, but not limited to, the slots are evenly distributed along the circumference of the coupling nut. After the clamping ring is assembled in place, gaps are reserved at the three grooves of the clamping ring, and the grooves do not influence all functions of the clamping ring. The slot is rectangular in shape or other shape that can form a gap with the collar for insertion of a removal tool.

Although the present invention has been described with reference to a preferred embodiment, it should be understood that various changes, substitutions and alterations can be made herein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
