ABSTRACT:
A self-locking lock nut assembly comprising working nut part (9) possessing a split annular sleeve extension upon which is mounted by springing locking part (10), which utilizes only the energy of vibration to translate counter-clockwise rotation of locking nut part (10) in a disengaging mode into a radial grip onto threaded bolt (6) through the split annular sleeve of working nut part (9) to prevent loosening counter-clockwise rotation of working nut part (9). The self-locking lock nut assembly possesses the capacity for a dynamic locking response to all modalities, directions and intensities of vibrational input to the degree required and proportional to the energy of vibration.
