  • Patent number: 9567882
    Abstract: A screw plug for a liquid conduit, particularly an oil pipe or an oil container, comprising a cylindrical shaft that is placed on a top plate and is provided with an external thread. A pocket hole having a polygonal cross section is centrally arranged on the top plate as a receiving member for a tool. The shaft is embodied as a tubular butt that is provided with the external thread. A pocket hole which is arranged coaxial to the pocket hole of the top plate extends from the face of the shaft. In order to produce the screw plug, a blank comprising the cylindrical tubular butt that is connected to the top plate in a molded on manner is made, the inner diameter and outer diameter of the tubular butt being smaller than the final corresponding diameters (e, f) of the screw plug. The tubular butt of the blank is then enlarged by applying pressure to the inner wall surface of the pocket hole thereof.

  • Patent number: 9267534
    Abstract: The invention provides a lock nut with a nut body which has a threaded section with an internal thread and an adjoining inner annular groove. An annular lock washer made of metal is held in the annular groove. An internal thread corresponding to the nut thread is cut into the inner circumference of the annular washer, and the internal thread of the annular washer is offset axially in relation to the nut thread by a distance which is smaller than a thread pitch of the nut thread. According to the invention, the thickness of the annular washer at the inside diameter thereof is greater than the thickness of the annular washer at the outside diameter to thereof. As a result, the elasticity of the annular lock washer and the holding force of the lock nut can be adjusted.
