Description
-I-Description FASTENER WITH PLANULAR COIL
Field of Invention This invention relates generally to a fastener releasably securable to a target member, and more particularly to a screw releasably securable to a thermoplastic member.
Background Art Screws releasably securable to wooden, stone, or metal target members are well known. In their conventional embodiment, said screws generally comprise a shaft, turning means disposed at one end of said shaft, and thread co-axially disposed on said shaft.
However, said conventional screws cannot be adequately secured in a releasable fashion to certain target members having a particular shape, orientation or composition.
Consequently, specialized attaching structures have been developed and made known.
For example, U.S. Patent No. 4,463,753 discloses a compression bone screw for repairing a fibular bone fracture having a shaft, tool interengaging means at one end of said shaft, distal thread disposed at the distal portion of said shaft, intermediate portion of said shaft having a substantially smooth surface, and proximal thread disposed at the proximal portion of said shaft.
U.S. Patent No. 4,403,895 provides for a retainer for securing a floor mat to the carpet layer and padding layer, if any, installed on the floor of a vehicle.
Said retainer includes a tapered shank having a self-piercing point at its lower end;
external spiral high lead disposed along said shank; partial shoulder adjacent to the lower end of said shank; and full shoulder adjacent the upper end of said shank. Since the distance between said partial shoulder and said full shoulder is less than the thickness of said carpet layer, said carpet layer is compressed between said partial shoulder and said full shoulder to create a demountable attachment between said carpet layer and said retainer when said retainer is rotated into said carpet layer.

Said conventional screws are not an effective means for creating a releasable attachment with a target member comprised of a soft buoyant resilient material such as a thermoplastic foam because of the relatively low structural integrity of soft buoyant resilient materials such as thermoplastic foam. Consequently, there is a need for a fastener having a construction that is particularly applied to create a releasable attachment with a target member comprising a soft buoyant resilient material such as a thermoplastic foam.

Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention In the description which follows, like parts are marked throughout the specification and the drawings with the same respective reference numerals. The drawings are not necessarily to scale and in some instances proportions may have been exaggerated in order to more clearly depict certain features of the invention.
Referring to Fig. 1 there is illustrated in a side view, a fastener 10 in accordance with the first preferred embodiment of the present invention. Said fastener 10 includes a shaft 12, turning means 14 presented at one end of said shaft 12 adjacent to the top of said shaft 12 for turning said shaft, planular helical coil 16 disposed along said shaft, and shaft end 18 presented at another end of said shaft 12. Said shaft end 18 can be pointed, as in the case of the first preferred embodiment of the fastener shown in Fig. 1, or rounded or straight, as the case may be.
When said shaft end 18 is brought into contact with a target member 15 comprising a soft buoyant resilient material such as a thermoplastic foam, if said fastener 10 is turned in a first direction, the same is rotated into said target member 15. When said fastener is turned in a second direction, said fastener is rotated out of said target member 15.
As best shown in Fig. 2, said planular helical coil 16 includes a cutting edge disposed at the distal end 21 of said planular helical coil 16 for cutting into the target member 15 comprised of a soft buoyant resilient material such as a thermoplastic foam.
When said fastener 10 is brought into contact with said target member 15 comprising a soft buoyant resilient material such as a thermoplastic foam and turned in said first direction, said cutting edge 20 cuts in to said target member 15, consequently, said fastener 10 can be rotated into said target member comprising a soft buoyant resilient material such as a thermoplastic foam.
As shown in Fig. 2, said planular helical coil 16 further includes a locking means 22 consisting of a straight radial edge disposed at the proximal end 23 of said planular helical coil 16. Said locking means 22 inhibits the turning of said fastener 10 in said second direction once said fastener 10 has been rotated into said target member 15 because the soft buoyant resilient material, such as a thermoplastic foam, comprising said target member 15 decompresses adjacent to said locking means 22 so as to present a blocking mass impeding rotation of said fastener 10 in said second direction.
As best shown in Fig. 1, said planular helical coil 16 also includes a rounded helical edge 24 for biting into said target member 15 when said fastener 10 is rotated into said target member 15 to minimize destructure of said target member.
Said shaft 12 can be smooth, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, or threaded as shown in Fig.
3. In addition, as best shown in Fig. 4 which shows a cross-sectional view of said fastener, said shaft 12 can be fashioned to include a locking ridge 26 which further impedes rotation of said fastener in said second direction.
As shown in Fig. 5, said turning means 14 can be adapted to include wings 27 to facilitate manual rotation of said fastener 10 without the use of a tool such as a screw driver for rotating said fastener 10. In addition, as shown in Fig. 6, said turning means 14 can be modified to include various forms of sockets. Lastly, said turning means 14 can be further adapted to include a means for biting into the surface of said target member when said fastener is rotated into said target member, such as a plurality of spikes 28 shown in Fig. 7 which extend downwardly from the bottom of said turning means 14 and are spaced apart from said shaft 12. Said spikes 28 engage the surface of said target member when said fastener is fully rotated into said target member so as to further secure the attachment of said fastener to said target member.
Both the first and second preferred embodiment of the present invention shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3 include one planular helical coil disposed adjacent to the distal end 11 of said shaft 12. However, other embodiments of the fastener are contemplated in which said planular helical coil is disposed at an intermediate position along said shaft 12, for example, adjacent to the proximal end 13 of said shaft 12. The invention disclosed herein is also adaptable to include more than one planular helical coil disposed along said shaft 12, for example, one planular helical coil at said distal end 11 end of said shaft and another planular helical coil at the proximal end 13 of said shaft.
Various embodiments of the invention have now been described in detail. Since changes in and/or additions to the above-described best mode may be made without departing from the nature, spirit or scope of the invention, the invention is not to be limited to said details.
When said fastener 10 is brought into contact with said target member 15 comprising a soft buoyant resilient material such as a thermoplastic foam and turned in said first direction, said cutting edge 20 cuts in to said target member 15, consequently, said fastener 10 can be rotated into said target member comprising a soft buoyant resilient material such as a thermoplastic foam.
As shown in Fig. 2, said planular helical coil 16 further includes a locking means 22 consisting of a straight radial edge disposed at the proximal end 23 of said planular helical coil 16. Said locking means 22 inhibits the turning of said fastener 10 in said second direction once said fastener 10 has been rotated into said target member 15 because the soft buoyant resilient material, such as a thermoplastic foam, comprising said target member 15 decompresses adjacent to said locking means 22 so as to present a blocking mass impeding rotation of said fastener 10 in said second direction.
As best shown in Fig. 1, said planular helical coil 16 also includes a rounded helical edge 24 for biting into said target member 15 when said fastener 10 is rotated into said target member 15 to minimize destructure of said target member.
Said shaft 12 can be smooth, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, or threaded as shown in Fig.
3. In addition, as best shown in Fig. 4 which shows a cross-sectional view of said fastener, said shaft 12 can be fashioned to include a locking ridge 26 which further impedes rotation of said fastener in said second direction.
As shown in Fig. 5, said turning means 14 can be adapted to include wings 27 to facilitate manual rotation of said fastener 10 without the use of a tool such as a screw driver for rotating said fastener 10. In addition, as shown in Fig. 6, said turning means 14 can be modified to include various forms of sockets. Lastly, said turning means 14 can be further adapted to include a means for biting into the surface of said target member when said fastener is rotated into said target member, such as a plurality of spikes 28 shown in Fig. 7 which extend downwardly from the bottom of said turning means 14 and are spaced apart from said shaft 12. Said spikes 28 engage the surface of said target member when said fastener is fully rotated into said target member so as to further secure the attachment of said fastener to said target member.
Both the first and second preferred embodiment of the present invention shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3 include one planular helical coil disposed adjacent to the distal end 11 of said shaft 12. However, other embodiments of the fastener are contemplated in which said planular helical coil is disposed at an intermediate position along said shaft 12, for example, adjacent to the proximal end 13 of said shaft 12. The invention disclosed herein is also adaptable to include more than one planular helical coil disposed along said shaft 12, for example, one planular helical coil at said distal end 11 end of said shaft and another planular helical coil at the proximal end 13 of said shaft.
Various embodiments of the invention have now been described in detail. Since changes in and/or additions to the above-described best mode may be made without departing from the nature, spirit or scope of the invention, the invention is not to be limited to said details.
