Service HotlineThe most important link in the development and design of fasteners is quality control. There are several major points from the feed to the finished product shipment, and these major points have different inspection methods. First of all, the feed is related to appearance, size, elements, performance, detection of harmful substances, etc.; the process is more about appearance, size, percussion test, forging flow line; heat treatment is more about appearance, hardness, torque, tension , metallography, etc.; the surface treatment is more about some hydrogen embrittlement tests, coatings, salt spray, etc., including a detection of harmful substances in shipments. In size and appearance inspection, the common ones are quadratic element, contour measuring instrument, three-coordinate measuring instrument, image sorting machine (this is a full selection machine); in mechanical and chemical inspection, there are mainly hardness machines (Rockwell and Vickers). ), tensile machine, metallographic microscope; in material testing, there is a spectrum analyzer and a salt spray testing machine.
The existing automobile fastener nut is a common nut. After the nut is matched with the bolt, during the tightening or disassembly process, there will be a phenomenon of sliding wire, and the safety factor is relatively low; It is difficult to guarantee, easy to rust, requires frequent inspection and replacement, and increases the cost of using the car, which can no longer meet the needs of the market.
As one of the indispensable parts in automobiles, the main function of the screw is to fix the parts with through holes and the parts with screw holes together. The existing automobile screws include a screw rod and a head, and the thread pitches on the screw rod are equal. , When in use, directly screw the screw into the screw hole, so as to connect and fix the two parts, this connection method, however, when the screw has different thread spacing or part of the thread is damaged, the thread cannot be repaired and replaced. Then the whole screw will be scrapped.
(1) The screw-in performance test is to screw the self-tapping locking screw sample into the test plate until one complete thread completely passes the test without breaking. (2) The destructive torque test is to clamp the stem of the self-tapping locking screw specimen in a thread mold or other device that matches the screw thread, and uses a calibrated torque-measuring device to measure the screw. Torque is applied until fracture, which should not occur in the clamped threaded portion. (3) Carry out a tensile test on the screw sample to check the minimum tensile load for failure. The fracture should be within the length of the rod or the unthreaded thread, and should not occur at the junction of the nail head and the rod. Before the sample breaks, it should be It can reach the minimum tensile load specified by the corresponding performance class. (4) Hydrogen embrittlement is a problem that must be strictly paid attention to in the surface treatment process of self-tapping locking screws. In the pickling process, the screw is stirred in dilute hydrochloric acid, and the amount of hydrogen absorbed by the pickling steel increases linearly with the square root of time and reaches the saturation value. Less than 100%, a large number of hydrogen atoms will be produced, which will be attached to the surface of the screw, resulting in hydrogen infiltration, and the steel will become brittle due to the absorption of hydrogen. The self-tapping locking screw takes 6~8h to drive hydrogen, and the temperature is 160~200℃ (phosphating) and 200~240℃ (electroplating). However, in the production process, the hydrogen drive time should be determined according to many production conditions such as core hardness, surface roughness, electroplating time, coating thickness, pickling time, and acid concentration. It is best to do it before passivation and just after electroplating.
However, Yueluo still feels that there should be room for improvement for the screw improvement and screw that integrates stability, labor, fast and multi-function in the above two cases; for example, No. 556784 screw improvement Although the rod has the function of cutting and collecting chips, when the screw starts to screw into the object such as wood, it is hindered by the hardness of the object's tissue, so the staff still needs to exert considerable force, resulting in the lock. In the solid operation, there is still a lack of difficulty in screwing in operation; another example, new cases such as No. 289408 screw that integrates locking, stability, labor, fast and multi-function, although the rod has the structural function of cutting and chip removal, it is The rod part is screwed into the middle section to the rear section of the object. Since the debris cannot be discharged, the rod part pushes the outer part of the object to the surrounding tissue of the object, so that the object expands outwards and even seriously damages the appearance of the object.
