2 Claims, 4 Drawing Figures OVAL SCREW The present invention pertains to a screw with a head shaped in a top-cut oval cone which spreads'out downwardly and which has a round top surface and also has an oval circumference with a slightly longer diameter than that of said circle. The top surface is planed into a circle and the longer diameter part of the original oval top surface is made into a slow arc slope toward the upper edge of the top-cut oval cone which is planed off.
The object of the present invention is to provide, in combination with a driver, a new and improved head construction which overcomes the objections inherent in the wood and machine screws heretofore used and possesses the following outstanding advantages, namely, presents a neater and more ornamental appear'ance than the slotted and hexagonal heads heretofore used, can be fit in a socket-type screw driver smoothly and securely, and can be driven at higher speed and tightened to the desired degree with far less efforts and attention than ordinary screws and without any danger of the head becoming disfigured or the adjacent surfaces marred, and can be manufactured by high speed production methods at lower costs than ordinary screws.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which;
FIG. 1 is a plan view of the oval screw according to the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a corresponding elevation.
FIG. 3 is a side view and FIG. 4 is a front view to show the state that the socket-type screw driver is put on the screw head.
In FIGS. v1-3,-reference numeral 1 denotes a screw body and the numeral 2 a screw head. The screw head 2 is made into a top-cut oval cone which is narrowed upward. Its top surface 3 is made into a circle with edge having been planed off.
The diameter of said circle corresponds to the shorter diameter of the top surface 3 of said top-cut oval cone, whereby the longer diameter part of the original oval top surface protrudes slightly from the circumference of the circle. Such protruded part is made into a slow arc slope 4 toward the upper edge of the top-cut oval cone.
Such being the structure of a screw of the present invention, the screw can be easily screwed in by putting a socket-type screw driver 5, which fits the slope of the top-cut oval cone, onto the screw head 2 as seen in FIG. 4 and by turning said screw driver. The slope of the top-cut oval cone offers resistance to the inner surface of the socket of the screw driver 5 thus driving the screw.
Therefore, there is no need to provide any groove on a screw surface for engaging with a screw driver as in the case of conventional screws, whereby it becomes possible to decorate the screw head by giving to its surface a polished finish or a cloisonne finish or a cut-glass looking finish.
The side of the screw head 2 is of the shape of a topcut oval cone which is narrowed upward, and yet the upper edge of the screw head 2 is planed off into an arc slope shape, due to which the screw driver 5 can be easily put on the screw head 2 and can be guided by said slope so as to engage with the screw head 2 smoothly and securely.
Now, for the purpose of protection to the top surface of the screw head 2 or to that of an object 6 to be screwed against damage, the socket of the screw driver 5 is shaped in such a way as it has gaps 7'and 8 respec- I tively between the top surface 3 of the screw head 2 and the inner surface of the socket and between the edge of the socket and the object 6 to be screwed. In this connection, it has been found that the best result is obtained when the angle a of the slope of the screw head 2 is about 6 from a perpendicular line at the lower edge of the screw head 2.
The top surface 3 of the screw head 2 is shaped into a circle with planed edge and yet the circle is succeeded by the slope at the larger diameter part of the top-cut oval cone via the slow arc slope 4, whereby the screw head 2 as a whole'gives the illusion as if it were a complete circle. Therefore, the screw head after having been applied to the object to be screwed gives a very good appearance as if it were the round head of a rivet. 7
Further, the top surface 3 of the screw head 2 is round as described above and the edge of the circle to be succeeded by the larger diameter part of the top-cut oval cone is shaped into the slow arc slope 4 and yet is planed off more than that to be succeeded by the shorter diameter part. This has such advantage that when forming an oval screw head by cold press with a shaping header, it is possible to average the flow of a screw material placed in the machine and thus to obtain uniform products.
This is to say,when the screw head to be shaped by press if of a mere oval section, the screw material pressed in the direction of the shorter diameter of the oval leaves a surplus due to a difference in capacity between the longer diameter part and the shorter diameter part, as the result of which the so-called protrusion is caused. While, in the case of the screw head in accordance with the present invention, the longer diameter part is narrowed upward with its upper edge shaped into the slow arc slope 4 and its capacity is almost the same as that of the shorter diameter part and accordingly the screw material can spread out evenly.
Thus, it is possible to obtain well-balanced and excellent products without causing any protrusion or incomplete shape due to the lack of screw material on the lower surface of the longer diameter part.
As heretofore described, the present invention has such advantage as it is possible to produce a screw being very simple in structure and yet excellent in both appearance and function.
