Abstract

A screw includes a shank and a head formed to a first end thereof and a second end of the shank is a sharp end, the shank having a threaded portion defined in an outer periphery thereof, the threaded portion having in at least one section thereof a plurality of radially defined cutting teeth.

Description

SCREW
2 R~CRGROI~ND OF THE I~V~;N110N
3 1. Field of the Invention 4 The present invention relates to a screw and more particularly, to an improved screw which has a shanh aLld a 6 head formed to a first end thereof and a tip portion formed 7 to a second thereof, a threaded portion defined in an outer 8 periphery of the shank and the threaded portion including a 9 plurality of cutting teeth formed therein.
2. Brief Description of the Prior Art 11 A conventional screw is composed of a shank and a head 12 which is formed to one end of the shank and the other end of 13 the shank is a sharp end so as to penetrate into an object to 14 receive the screw. The shank has a threaded portion defined in an outer periphery thereof such that when the screw is 16 screwed into the object, the threaded portion is tightly 17 engaged with the material of the object and this causes an 18 advancing of the screw in the object. Accordingly, as the 19 screw penetrates the object, thereby encountering increasing surface contact with the object, an operator must use more 21 force to screw the screw such that the screw can be 22 completely screwed into the object.
23 The present invention intends to provide an improved 24 screw in which the threaded portion has cutting teeth formed thereto so as to facilitate the screwing of the screw to 26 mitigate and/or obviate the above-mentioned problems.
27 S~RY OF T}IE 1NVL... 110N
28 The present invention provides a screw which includes 3_ 2183211 1a shank and a head formed to a first end thereof and a second 2end of the shank is a sharp end. The shank has a threaded 3portion defined in an outer periphery thereof, the threaded 4portion having in at least one section thereof a plurality of 5radially defined cutting teeth defined radially .
6It is an object of the present invention to provide a 7screw having a plurality of cutting teeth defined therein so 8as to effectively screw the screw into an object.
gOther objects, advantages, and novel features of the 10invention will become more apparent from the following 11detailed description when taken in conjunction with the 12accompanying drawings.

14Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a screw in accordance 15with the present invention;
16Fig. 2 is an illustrative view of the screw which is 17going to be screwed into a piece of wood;
18Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view, partly in section, 19of a threaded portion having cutting teeth of the screw, and 20Fig. 4 is a side elevational view, partly in section, 21of screw screwed into the piece of wood.
22DET~Tr~n DESCRIPTION OF TXE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
23Referring to the drawings and initially to Figs. 1 24through 3, a screw in accordance with the present invention 25generally includes a shank 10 and a head 12 formed to a first 26end thereof and a second end of the shank 10 is a sharp end 2711. The shank 10 has a threaded portion 20 defined in an 28outer periphery thereof, the threaded portion 20 having in a 1 lower section thereof a plurality of radially defined cutting 2 teeth 22 defined radially therein.
3 Referring now to Fig. 4, the cutting teeth 22 cut into 4 a piece of wood 3 0 into which the screw is screwed.
Theref~re, whe~ an operator (not shown) screws the screw, the 6 cutting teeth 22 will effectively cut the piece of wood 30 to 7 facilitate the screw to be screwed into the piece of wood 30 8 and the threaded portion 20 without cutting teeth 22 is g tightly engaged with the wood 30 such that the screw can be easily screwed into the piece of wood 3 0 and is securely 11 engaged to the wood 3 0 .
12 Accordingly, the screw provides an effective feature 13 when being screwed into the piece of wood 3 0, the 14 configuration or the arrangement of the cutting teeth can be designed to meet requirements according to different 16 situations.
17 Although the invention has been explained in relation 18 to its preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that many 19 other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention 21 as hereinafter claimed.

Claims (2)

1. A screw comprising a shank and a head formed to a first end thereof, said shank having a threaded portion defined in an outer periphery thereof, said threaded-portion having in at least one section thereof a plurality of radially defined cutting teeth.
2. The screw as claimed in claim 1 wherein a second end of said shank is a sharp end.
