More Information
Summary:A locking washer is to be inserted between a bearing element and a screwable element. The locking washer includes two washer crowns, each of which has an engagement face. The washer crowns which engage with one another and are maintained compressed under axial pressure between the screwable element and the bearing element are capable, when the screwable element is unscrewed, of rotatably engaging with the screwable element, and the bearing element, respectively, so as to rotate the washer crowns relative to one another, in order to rotatably lock the screwable element. According to the invention, the locking washer presents a shape of a truncated cone, and the locking washer is elastically deformable in order to be able to be flattened, forming a spring, such that the axial pressure is maintained substantially constant.
