ABSTRACT:
The tightening screw of the invention comprises a screw member forming a female threads or male threads in the shaft core part, a flange ring fitted to the outer periphery of the screw member to contact with the object to be tightened, an operating ring for feeding a rotational force by fitting oppositely to the flange ring on the outer periphery of the screw member, and a torque transmitting member interspaced between the screw member and operating ring for transmitting the rotational force of the operating ring to the screw member. The torque transmitting member comprises a reduction mechanism for transmitting the rotational force of the operating ring to the screw member by reducing the speed, and a unidirectional torque limiter for cutting off transmission of torque in the tightening direction of the screw member to the object to be tightened at a specific load.
