  • Publication number: 20070264099
    Abstract: An expansion screw has at least three folding sections to provide a bracing effect. It includes an anchor nail and a bolt. The anchor nail has a tubular body formed by rolling a plate and an action zone in the middle portion. The action zone has a plurality of longitudinal slots and a plurality of strips. Each strip has a first section, a second section and a third section. After the expansion screw receives an action of a tensile force tool, the second section, due to having a upper end and a lower end that are weaker, can channel and concentrate stress to generate a bending and drive the first and third sections to bend in desired directions. Thereby the second section is folded over the first section and the third section presses the first section to form a bracing effect. The folding and bracing of the material can prevent defective construction and damage caused by excessive compression on the rim of the construction hole.

  • Patent number: 6719509
    Abstract: An improved expansion screw and particularly an expansion screw for securely anchoring on various types of solid walls and hollow walls mainly includes a bolt and a nail tube. The nail tube has a front end fastened to a nut, a middle portion formed at least one expansion section which has carved slots formed thereon in an annular manner, and at least one -shaped slot formed annularly between the nut and the expansion section. Each -shaped slot has an expansion flap located therein. Every two neighboring -shaped slots are bridged by a longitudinal connection strip to form a bend section. When the bolt nut at the front end of the bolt is turned and driven to generate an inward compression, the expansion flap is forced to extend outwards and overlap with the annular ring at the front end of the nail tube, and the longitudinal connection strip is bent outwards on the bend section to form a double compression on the inner side of a construction hole in a wall to form a secured coupling.

  • Patent number: 5696494
    Abstract: A rotary unit and illumination unit for a 3-side variable advertisement display board is disclosed. It has a frame made up of a lower groove and two lateral hollow tubes and fixed to a supporting leg by welding. Light tubes are fixed inside triangular hollow columns by rubber pads screwed to an upper member. A cross-head shaft passing through the worms of a worm gear disposed inside a lower supporting member and connected to a rectangular axle on top of the lower supporting member, is joined to a gearing wheel which driven by a driving wheel actuated by a motor, will cause the movement of the cross-head shaft, resulting in the rotation of the triangular hollow columns. An ultra-red ray sensor is used to signal the stop movement of the triangular hollow columns, a timer and a rectifier are used to preset and control the regular movement of the triangular hollow columns.
