Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a novel screw that causes drag and prohibits unwinding of the screw. The screw is designed for use in eyeglasses for securing eyeglass lenses and prohibiting same from falling out. The screw includes a fillister head, a drive disposed on the head for engaging a screwdriver, a shaft running from the head to a terminal end, the shaft having non-contiguous circumferential threads along the length of the shaft for rotatably sliding the screw through slots. The screw includes a longitudinal channel in the form of a slot disposed along the surface of the shaft and through the length of the shaft. A planar bar of neoprene or any other polypropene can be inserted in the channel which assists with prohibiting unwinding of the screw when the screw is in use.
