Abstract
A nut assembly is provided which has a pivotable nut having both sides thereof increased in wall thickness to impart strength and thereby to prevent breakage of the nut upon tightening of a bolt. The nut assembly includes a nut having pivot pins about which the nut is pivotable, and a frame having a flange formed with a bolt hole and a pair of arms provided on both sides of the flange. A pair of hanging walls extending in the bolt inserting direction are provided around the bolt hole at two opposing positions on an imaginary plane perpendicular to a line connecting the pins. This makes it possible to narrow the width of the guide hole of the nut in which the hanging walls are received by an amount by which the banging walls have narrowed. By this arrangement, the wall thickness of both sides of the nut is increased.
