Abstract
A self-locking demountable pin consisting of a central stay bolt with an internal hexagonal through bore for its tightening by a key and comprising at its two ends two opposite-handed external threads, right handed and left handed respectively, which cooperate with the corresponding threads of two elastic end nuts each provided with an annular flange having a frusto-conical surface and decreasing in thickness in an outward direction, its taper being greater than that of two frusto-conical flares into which the nuts are to be inserted.
Claims3
A demountable pin for insertion between and clamping together two frusto-conical flares sandwiching an element containing an annular bearing consisting of a central stay bolt having an internal hexagonal through bore and defining left and right-handed threads on either end of said stay bolt and two internally threaded end nuts for complementarily threading on the threads of said stay bolt, each said end nut consisting of an internally threaded cylindrical annular part and an elastic external annular flange at one end of said cylindrical annular part, said annular flange having inner and outer conical surfaces with different tapers so that the distance between the inner and outer annular fruto-conical surfaces decreases in an outward direction, said end nuts upon assemblage having said annular frusto-conical outer surfaces of each nut extending away from each other.
