Abstract From the Canadian patent

A tightening screw in which a rotating ring is rotatably held on a flange-ring, a screw member having female threads in the same pitch as the male threads of the bolt to be fitted, with the female thread diameter formed larger than the male thread diameter, is rotably held eccentrically so that some of female threads of the screw member may be engaged with the male threads preliminarily and the flange is fixed at the time of tightening so that the rotating ring may revolve the screw member and thereby, the decelerated rotation created in the screw member produces a large tightening force to increase the torque.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed March 19, 1993 and granted January 19, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended March 19, 2013.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by March 19, 2015.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
