Abstract
In order to optimize a nut and a method for the production of a nut, comprising a nut body which is provided or can be provided with an internal thread and has a polygonal section with a polygonal outer contour which has, on the one hand, edge areas and, on the other hand, key faces which are located between the edge areas and extend in key face planes extending in a manner conforming to standards, in such a manner that it has mechanical properties which are as ideal as possible with as low a weight as possible, it is suggested that the nut body have a plurality of recesses which extend into the nut body in the direction of the bore proceeding from the respective key face planes.
Claims48
Nut, comprising a nut body provided or providable with an internal thread, said nut body having a polygonal section with a polygonal outer contour having, on the one hand, edge areas and, on the other hand, key faces located between the edge areas and extending in key face planes extending in a manner conforming to standards, wherein the nut body has a plurality of recesses extending into the nut body in the direction of the bore proceeding from the respective key face planes.
Nut, comprising a nut body provided or providable with an internal thread, said nut body having a polygonal section with a polygonal outer contour having, on the one hand, edge areas and, on the other hand, key faces located between the edge areas and extending in key face planes extending in a manner conforming to standards, wherein for the purpose of designing the nut as a check nut the internal thread is produced as an internal thread corresponding to standard measurements but is designed to deviate from a standard course as a result of plastic deformation of the nut body.
Nut, comprising a nut body provided or providable with an internal thread, said nut body having a polygonal section with a polygonal outer contour having, on the one hand, edge areas and, on the other hand, key faces located between the edge areas and extending in key face planes extending in a manner conforming to standards, wherein the nut body is plastically deformed as a result of a force acting on edge areas located opposite one another with respect to the central axis.
Nut, comprising a nut body provided or providable with an internal thread, said nut body having a polygonal section with a polygonal outer contour having, on the one hand, edge areas and, on the other hand, key faces located between the edge areas and extending in key face planes extending in a manner conforming to standards, wherein the nut body is plastically deformed as a result of a force acting on base areas of recesses located opposite one another with respect to the central axis.
Nut, comprising a nut body provided or providable with an internal thread, said nut body having a polygonal section with a polygonal outer contour having, on the one hand, edge areas and, on the other hand, key faces located between the edge areas and extending in key face planes extending in a manner conforming to standards, wherein the nut body is plastically deformed as a result of a force acting in the region of an outer edge of the second end face.
Nut, comprising a nut body provided or providable with an internal thread, said nut body having a polygonal section with a polygonal outer contour having, on the one hand, edge areas and, on the other hand, key faces located between the edge areas and extending in key face planes extending in a manner conforming to standards, wherein the nut body is plastically deformed as a result of a force acting on the second end face with a component in the direction parallel to the central axis.
Nut, comprising a nut body provided or providable with an internal thread, said nut body having a polygonal section with a polygonal outer contour having, on the one hand, edge areas and, on the other hand, key faces located between the edge areas and extending in key face planes extending in a manner conforming to standards, wherein the nut body is produced from steel with a bainitic or ferritic-perlitic structure.
