<p>The invention relates to a lockwasher which is to be inserted between a bearing element (38) and a screwable element (42), and which includes two rings (12, 14), each of which have an engagement surface (24, 22). Said rings (12, 13), which engage with one another and maintained compressed under axial pressure between said screwable element (42) and said bearing element (38), are capable, when said screwable element is unscrewed, of rotatably engaging with said screwable element (42) and said bearing element (38), respectively, so as to rotate said rings (12, 14) relative to one another, in order to rotatably lock said screwable element (42). According to the invention, said lockwasher (10) is frusto-conical, and said lockwasher (10) is elastically deformable in order to be able to be flattened, forming a spring such that said axial pressure is maintained substantially constant.</p> |
