Abstract

Provided is a nut into which a bolt ( 10 ) including a male-threaded portion with a male-threaded external diameter d and a male-threaded core diameter d 1 is screwed, wherein a bolt insertion side end of a female-threaded portion ( 21 ) formed in a nut body ( 20 ) is provided with an incompletely threaded female portion ( 22 ) that is formed by one to three pitches so that an internal diameter dimension D is larger than (d+d 1 )/2 and is smaller than the male-threaded external diameter d. Accordingly, even when the bolt is screwed into the nut in the inclination direction, the bolt may be rotated about a contact surface with respect to the incompletely threaded female portion ( 22 ), and hence seizing may be prevented.

Claims (6)

1. An anti-seizing nut which has a bolt screwed into a nut body of the nut, the bolt having a male-threaded portion with a male-threaded external diameter d and a male-threaded core diameter d 1 ,

wherein at a bolt insertion side end of a smaller internal diameter female-threaded portion formed in the nut body, a larger internal diameter female-threaded portion having an internal diameter dimension D is formed by one pitch or more, and wherein the internal diameter dimension D is larger than (d +d 1 )/2 and is smaller than the male-threaded external diameter d.

2. The combination of an anti-seizing nut and a bolt according to claim 1 ,

wherein the larger internal diameter female-threaded portion is formed by one to four pitches.

3. The combination of an anti-seizing nut and a bolt according to claim 1 ,

wherein the larger internal diameter female-threaded portion has a core diameter and the smaller internal diameter female-threaded portion has a core diameter, and the core diameter of the larger internal diameter female-threaded portion is larger than the core diameter of the smaller internal diameter female-threaded portion.
