This invention relates to a safety screw assembly and operating key. The head of the screw is movable between a position where it is rotationally integral with the body and a position where it is freely rotatable. The head of the screw has on one face, an opening or a relief, that matches a relief or an imprint formed on part of the operating key. One end of the body of the screw has a stator and a rotor. The head of the screw forms a housing for receiving the rotor, and the assembly forms a translationally movable securing component which is movable between a loose position, where the head is freely rotatable and the rotor and the stator are rotationally integral, and a locked position, where the head and the stator are rotationally integral, where the key has at least one component for setting the rotor into rotation.

A connecting element, preferably for fastening a wheel, or rim, to a hub of a vehicle, includes a body having a respective outer perimeter surface which extends along a respective imaginary profile, in particular an imaginary circular profile, there being formed, at the perimeter surface, respective elements for the engagement of corresponding elements or tool for screwing and/or unscrewing the connecting element, and screw thread elements for fastening, preferably to the vehicle hub. The engagement elements include a plurality of perpendicularly extending and circumferentially distributed engagement troughs which are recessed relative to the imaginary outer profile and each being separated from the adjacent trough by a respective outer perimeter transit zone. The outer transit zone has a width (r) which is less than the width (i) of the trough, and in particular, a width (r) which is less than half the width of the trough.

The present specification discloses a locking fastener that includes a first threaded fastener axially positioned within an axial through hole of a second threaded fastener, and captured therein by a rotating joint that permits rotation of the first threaded fastener and the second threaded fastener relative to one another about a common thread axis. In one or more embodiments, the first threaded fastener thread handedness is opposite to the second threaded fastener thread handedness. Additionally disclosed, is a screwdriver tool configured to simultaneously engage and oppositely rotate the first threaded fastener and the second threaded fastener into a mating component having a first mating thread and a second mating thread configured to receive the first threaded fastener and the second threaded fastener, respectively, driven at the same axial advance distance for each turn. Once tightened, the present locking fastener resists loosening and provides a tamper-resistant hold.

A connector and an electronic device, to resolve a problem of poor mountability of the connector. The connector includes a housing, a conductive core, and a fastening structure. The housing has a channel that passes through a first end and a second end of the housing. The conductive core is disposed in the channel. A solder leg is disposed on one end of the conductive core, and the solder leg protrudes from the first end of the housing and is configured to be soldered to a circuit board. The fastening structure is configured to fasten the housing to a panel. The conductive core may be directly soldered to the circuit board, so that a connection effect between the conductive core and the circuit board can be improved, and mounting steps can be reduced.

An antitheft nut may include a virtual reference line extending in a circumferential direction on a basis of a center with respect to one surface of a nut body, a plurality of key assembling portions continuously protruding or depressed along the virtual reference line, and an assembling line having the plurality of key assembling portions repeatedly formed while being spaced apart from each other in an inside direction and an outside direction of the virtual reference line.

The present specification discloses a locking fastener that includes a first threaded fastener axially positioned within an axial through hole of a second threaded fastener, and captured therein by a rotating joint that permits rotation of the first threaded fastener and the second threaded fastener relative to one another about a common thread axis. In one or more embodiments, the first threaded fastener thread handedness is opposite to the second threaded fastener thread handedness. Additionally disclosed, is a screwdriver tool configured to simultaneously engage and oppositely rotate the first threaded fastener and the second threaded fastener into a mating component having a first mating thread and a second mating thread configured to receive the first threaded fastener and the second threaded fastener, respectively, driven at the same axial advance distance for each turn. Once tightened, the present locking fastener resists loosening and provides a tamper-resistant hold.

A crimping device includes a hammer and a crimp socket that includes an aperture, a socket face, and a sloped key that projects radially into the crimp socket and extends at least a portion of the depth of the aperture. A height of the radial projection of the sloped key increases along a depth of the aperture.

A locking nut key for aiding the removal of a locking wheel nut is disclosed having a patterned groove and defining a longitudinal axis (L), the key including a head portion for engagement with a tool, and a wall extending from the head portion at a proximal end to a free distal end along the longitudinal axis (L) of the key. The wall includes an outer surface and an inner surface, the outer surface of the wall includes a thickening between the proximal end and the distal end, the outer surface has a first diameter between the proximal end and the thickening and a second diameter at the distal end, the outer surface has a third diameter at the thickening, and the third diameter is greater than the first diameter and the second diameter.

An unlocking tool configured for unlocking a locking system that prevents a nut from rotating with respect to a threaded stem, comprising a ring configured to be positioned around the threaded stem in operation and at least one finger extending between a first end connected to the ring and a second, free end, this finger being configured to be received and slide in a longitudinal channel of the threaded stem in operation, each finger comprising a front face that is configured to cooperate with at least one tab of the locking system so as to prevent it becoming immobilized in one of the longitudinal channels of the threaded stem.

An adjustable positioning device includes a connection member, a positioning member and an adjusting member threaded onto the connection member and an adjustment structure including two protrusions respectively located on the positioning member and the adjusting member to face toward each other and an abutment surface extending upwardly and circularly from the bottom side of one protrusion toward the other protrusion. Subject to the design of the adjustment structure, the user can conveniently adjust the position of the positioning component set on the connection member to produce a positioning effect, or a positioning and tamper-proof effect.
