Description
A locking device to inhibit loosening of screw action fasteners
TECHNICAL FIELD
The invention relates to a locking device to inhibit loosening of screw action fasteners, particularly, though not necessarily, polygonal fasteners, such as a wheel nut, or other components having a multi-angular peripheral surface.
BACKGROUND
Locking devices to inhibit loosening of screw action fasteners are often used on heavy goods vehicles to inhibit loosening of wheel nuts. Earlier patent application GB2437538 discloses a device suitable for this purpose comprising a metal wire forming a pair of coils for releasably mounting the device onto adjacent wheel nuts. The device can thus be described as a twin-coil locking device. The wire has a diagonal interconnecting portion extending tangentially between the coils, and first and second end portions extend tangentially from the coils and across the diagonal interconnecting portion to provide a pair of finger grip limbs that oppose one another on either side of the diagonal interconnecting portion. The diameter and spacing of the coils, the spacing of the coils being determined by the length of the diagonal interconnecting portion, are selected to correspond to a particular wheel nut size and spacing. In use, the finger grip limbs are pressed together to loosen the coils to enable their location over, or removal from, the wheel nuts, the coils otherwise gripping the wheel nuts when located thereover to mount the device onto the fastener such that movement of the device relative to the fastener is inhibited, thus inhibiting rotation, and consequently loosening, of each of the adjacent wheel nuts. It is an object of embodiments of the invention to at least mitigate one or more problems of known devices.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
According to the invention, there is provided a locking device to inhibit loosening of screw action fasteners, the device comprising a resilient wire forming a coil, e.g. a single coil, for releasably mounting the device onto a fastener, the wire having first and second end portions extending tangentially from the coil and across one another to provide first and second lever portions, respectively, the pressing together of which loosens the coil to enable its location over, or removal from, the fastener, the coil otherwise gripping the fastener when located thereover to mount the device onto the fastener such that movement of the device relative to the fastener is inhibited, the first end portion being configured to abut an object in the plane of rotation of the fastener.
In developing the invention, it was identified that wheels having an odd number of nuts was problematic, either requiring an additional twin-coil locking device or leaving one of the nuts unlocked. Either of these approaches are sub-optimal for reasons that would be apparent to the skilled person. As such, the invention provides a convenient solution to this issue. It was further identified that wheels having nuts of different spacing, or atypical spacing was also problematic, making twin-lock devices unsuitable for use or requiring a number of twin-lock devices of different sizes. The invention provides a solution to this issue also.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Embodiments of the invention will now be described, by way of example only, with to reference to the accompanying figures, in which: Figure 1 is a perspective view of a locking device according to the prior art; Figure 2 is a plan view of part of a wheel mounting assembly incorporating a pair of locking devices according to Figure 1; Figure 3 is a perspective view of a locking device according to an embodiment of the invention; Figure 4 is a plan view of the locking device of Figure 3; Figure 5 is a plan view of part of a wheel mounting assembly incorporating the locking device according to Figures 3 and 4; and Figure 6 is an enlarged, partial perspective view of the wheel mounting assembly of Figure 5 showing the interaction between the locking device of Figures 3 and 4 and the wheel nuts.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
In Figure 1, there is shown a locking device 1 according to the prior art, which includes a metal wire forming a pair of coils 2 for releasably mounting the device 1 onto adjacent wheel nuts F, which is illustrated in Figure 2. The wire has a diagonal interconnecting portion 4 extending tangentially between the coils 2, and first and second end portions 5, 6 extend tangentially from the coils 2 and across the diagonal interconnecting portion 4.
Each of the first and second end portions 5, 6 is bent approximately at its midpoint to provide a pair of finger grip limbs 50, 60 that are substantially parallel and oppose one another, on either side of the diagonal interconnecting portion 4. The spacing of the coils 2 is determined by the length of the diagonal interconnecting portion 4. The diameter and spacing of the coils 2 are selected to correspond to a particular size and spacing of the wheel nuts F. In use and as illustrated in Figure 2, the finger grip limbs 50, 60 are pressed together, as illustrated by arrows PR, to loosen the coils 2 to enable their location over the wheel nuts F of a wheel assembly 10. When the finger grip limbs 50,60 are released over the wheel nuts F, the coils 2 grip the wheel nuts F to mount the locking device 1 thereon such that movement of the device 1 relative to the wheel nuts F is inhibited. This, in turn, inhibits rotation of the wheel nuts F, and consequently inhibits loosening of each of the adjacent wheel nuts F. Removal of the device 1 is achieved by pressing PR the finger grip limbs 50, 60 together and removing the coils 2 from the wheel nuts F. As illustrated in Figure 2, there is an issue when there is an odd number of wheel nuts F. This is one of the issues that this invention seeks to address.
Turning now to Figures 3 and 4, there is shown a locking device 100 according to the invention. The locking device 100 includes a resilient wire, which is formed of metal in this example but could be formed of any suitable material. The resilient wire forms a coil 102, which is a single coil 102 in this example, for releasably mounting the device 100 onto a wheel nut Fl. The coil 102 of the specific example has one complete turn, as well as a portion of an incomplete turn. In embodiments of the invention, the coil 102 may have any number of complete turns.
The locking device 100 has first and second end portions 103, 104 extending tangentially from the coil 102 and across one another. The first end portion 103 is longer than the second end portion 104 and includes a straight part 130 and a hook 131 extending from the free end of the straight part 130. The hook 130 is curved in the opposite direction to the coil 102, downwardly as shown in the Figures. The straight part 130 of the first end portion 103 provides a first lever portion 130.
The spacing between the coil 102 and the hook is determined by the length of the straight part 130. The diameter of the coil 102 and the spacing between the coil 102 and the hook 131 are selected to correspond to a particular size and spacing of the wheel nuts F. The second end portion 104 is bent approximately at its midpoint to provide a first part 140, which extends tangentially from the coil 102, and a second part 141 that extends at an oblique angle relative to the first part 140. In this example, the second part 141 is bent in the opposite direction to the coil 102, thereby to provide a gripping element 141. The second part 141 of the second end portion 104 provides a second lever portion 141.
In use and as illustrated in Figures 4 and 5, the first and second lever portions 130, 141 are pressed together, as illustrated by arrows PR, to loosen the coil 102, thereby to enable its location over a first wheel nut F1. The locking device 100 is oriented such that the first lever portion 130 extends to the left, as shown in Figure 5, with the hook 131 facing downwardly. Before the lever portions 130, 141 are released, the device is rotated counter-clockwise until the hook 131 abuts and partially surrounds an adjacent, second wheel nut F2.
When the lever portions 130,141 are released, the coil 102 grips the first wheel nut F1 to mount the locking device 100 thereon, such that movement of the device 100 relative to the first wheel nut F1 is inhibited. As illustrated more clearly in Figure 5, the orientation of the locking device 100 is such that rotation of the first wheel nut F1 in a counter-clockwise, loosening direction causes the hook 131 to rotate toward, and engage, the second wheel nut F2. The engagement between the hook 131 and the adjacent, second wheel nut F2 therefore inhibits counter-clockwise rotation of the device 100 relative thereto. This, in turn, inhibits a loosening rotation of the first wheel nut F1. Removal of the locking device 100 is achieved by pulling apart PU the lever portions 130, 141 to remove the coil 102 from the first wheel nut Fl.
As shown in Figure 5, the locking device 100 according to this example can be used in conjunction with a pair of twin-coil locking devices 1 of the prior art, in order to inhibit loosening of all five wheel nuts F of the wheel assembly 110 illustrated in Figure 5. In this example, the wheel assembly 110 includes five wheel nuts F, but the device 100 of the invention could be used with any number of twin-coil locking devices 1 of the prior art to lock the wheel nuts F of a wheel assembly (not shown) having an odd number of wheel nuts F other than five.
While the device 100 has particular application as locking device 100 to inhibit loosening of wheel nuts, the device 100 may also be used to inhibit loosening of other screw action fasteners, including polygonal fasteners and other components having a multi-angular peripheral surface. The skilled person will also appreciate that the device may be used with fasteners having left-handed or right-handed threads.
Embodiments of the invention may be made of spring steel wire. Spring steel is generally low-alloy manganese, medium-carbon steel or high-carbon steel with a high yield strength. Embodiments of the invention may be made stainless steel wire, for example 301 stainless steel wire, a grade of steel also known as X10CrNi 18-8. The aforementioned materials provide the necessary resiliency to deform the device 10, allowing it to return to its original shape and exert a gripping force on a fastener.
However, any material that exhibits the necessary resiliency would be suitable. While the embodiment shown in the accompanying figures is made of wire having a square cross-section, wires of any cross-section, for example a round cross-section, would be possible.
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that several variations to the aforementioned embodiments are envisaged without departing from the scope of the invention. For example, the first end portion 103 need not include a hook 131 and/or may abut any object in the plane of rotation of the first wheel nut Fl, not necessarily a second wheel nut F2. The first end portion 103 may abut an object at any point along its length, making the device 100 suitable for pairs of wheel nuts having different spacing. The coil 102 may include multiple turns or coils. Other variations are also envisaged without departing from the scope of the invention. It will also be appreciated by those skilled in the art that any number of combinations of the aforementioned features and/or those shown in the appended drawings provide clear advantages over the prior art and are therefore within the scope of the invention described herein.
