the gasket is matched with the gasket groove on the joint body;
the cross section width of the U-shaped pin is smaller than the width of a U-shaped pin insertion groove on the joint body, and the U-shaped pin is matched with a side through hole on the locknut. .
Preferably, the internal thread of the locking nut is opposite in direction and/or different in pitch from the external thread. When the locknut is connected with the connector body and the locknut at the same time, the mechanism can effectively prevent the locknut from loosening under the condition of limiting the axial movement of the locknut.
Preferably, the distance from the backward step of the adjustable direction end of the joint body to the U-shaped pin insertion groove is slightly smaller than the distance from the end surface of the non-thread end of the locknut to the side through hole. When the non-threaded end of the locknut is tightly attached to the backward step of the adjustable end of the connector body, the U-shaped pin penetrates through one side of the two side holes on the locknut and penetrates out from the other side of the locknut through the U-shaped pin insertion groove on the connector body, interference fit can be formed, the locknut can only rotate and cannot axially shift along the adjustable end of the connector body, and the locknut is prevented from being loosened by limiting the axial shift of the locknut.
Preferably, the U-shaped pin is made of a material with certain elasticity and hardness, and the opening size of the opening end is larger than that of the opening at the middle part. Therefore, the U-shaped pin can not fall off after passing through the two side through holes of the locknut and the U-shaped pin insertion groove on the connector body.
The technical scheme includes that firstly, the locknut and the locknut are screwed together to form the combined nut and then are screwed into the direction-adjustable end of the connector body, then the gasket and the sealing element are installed, the whole connector is screwed into the oil port according to the standard installation mode of the direction-adjustable connector, the direction is adjusted, and the locknut is screwed according to the specified torque to form sealing; then screwing the locknut, screwing the non-threaded end of the locknut to the rear step of the direction-adjustable end of the joint body until the two end faces are contacted, and then screwing to a certain torque; and finally, the U-shaped pin penetrates through the side hole in the locknut and the U-shaped pin insertion groove in the connector body to prevent the locknut from axially moving, so that the integral anti-loosening effect is formed.
As a variation of the above scheme, a similar anti-loose connection is obtained by changing an anti-loose nut using an internal thread into an anti-loose body using an external thread, and the anti-loose connection comprises a locknut, a joint body, an anti-loose body, a gasket, a sealing element and a U-shaped pin, wherein the joint body and the locknut are provided with mutually matched threads, and the anti-loose connection is characterized in that:

the inner hole of the locking nut of the variant is provided with two sections of internal threads, wherein the internal threads with smaller diameter are matched with the external threads on the joint body;
one side of the anti-loosening body is provided with an external thread, the external thread is matched with an internal thread with a larger diameter of the lock nut, the other side of the anti-loosening body is provided with two side through holes which are parallel to each other, the center lines of the two side holes are parallel to the end surface of the anti-loosening body and are symmetrically distributed along the axis of the anti-loosening body, and the diameter of the inner through hole of the anti-loosening body is larger than the major diameter of the thread of the joint body;
the gasket in the variant is matched with the gasket groove on the joint body;
the cross section width of the U-shaped pin is smaller than the width of a U-shaped pin insertion groove on the joint body, and the U-shaped pin is matched with the side hole on the anti-loosening body.
As a variant, the two internal threads of the union nut are preferably of opposite hand and/or of different pitch. When the locknut is connected with the joint body and the anti-loosening body at the same time, the mechanism can effectively prevent the locknut from loosening under the condition of limiting the axial movement of the anti-loosening body.
Preferably, the distance from the backward step of the adjustable direction end of the joint body to the U-shaped pin insertion groove is slightly smaller than the distance from the end surface of the non-thread end of the anti-loosening body to the side through hole. When the non-threaded end of the check body is tightly attached to the backward step of the adjustable end of the connector body, the U-shaped pin penetrates through one side of the two side holes on the check nut and penetrates out of the other side of the check nut through the U-shaped pin insertion groove on the connector body, interference fit can be formed, the check nut can only rotate and cannot axially shift along the adjustable end of the connector body, and the locking nut is prevented from being loosened by limiting the axial shift of the check body.
As a preferred variant, the U-shaped pin is made of a material having a certain elasticity and hardness, and the opening size of the open end is larger than that of the middle. Therefore, after the U-shaped pin passes through the two side through holes of the anti-loosening body and the U-shaped pin insertion groove on the joint body, the U-shaped pin cannot fall off.
The scheme of the variation example is that the anti-loose body and the locking nut are screwed together to form the combined nut, then the combined nut is screwed into the direction-adjustable end of the joint body, then the gasket and the sealing element are installed, the whole joint is screwed into the oil port according to the standard installation mode of the direction-adjustable joint, the direction is adjusted, and the locking nut is screwed according to the specified torque to form sealing; then screwing the anti-loosening body, screwing the non-threaded end of the anti-loosening body to the rear step of the direction-adjustable end of the joint body until the two end faces are contacted, and then screwing the anti-loosening body to a certain torque; and finally, the U-shaped pin penetrates through the side hole on the anti-loosening body and the U-shaped pin insertion groove on the joint body to prevent the axial movement of the anti-loosening body, so that the integral anti-loosening effect is formed.
