The tightening screw of the invention comprises a screw member forming female threads or male threads in a 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 interposed between the screw member and operating ring for transmitting the rotational force of the operating ring to the screw member, wherein the torque transmitting member comprises a rotation number reduction mechanism for transmitting the rotational force of the operating ring to the screw member by reducing the rotation number and thereby increase the transmitted torque, 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.

A tightening screw for holding an object on a drive means, said screw comprising: a screw member comprising a core part with a plurality of threads for engaging said drive means, a circular outer surface portion, and a circular ring portion having a plurality of inwardly directed inner gears, said inner gears being of a first number; a flange ring comprising an engaging surface and a contacting surface, and being disposed to be next to said screw member and having said contacting surface in contact with said object; a rotating ring comprising an inner core part disposed to surround said circular outer surface portion of said screw member, and further comprising an intermediate ring portion having a plurality of outwardly directed outer gears non-continuously engaged with said inner gears of said screw member, said inner gears being of a second number different from said first number; and operating ring comprising an inner surface and disposed to cover said rotating ring and rotatably hold eccentrically said rotating ring with said inner surface so that upon rotation of said operating ring, said rotating ring is turned to controllably rotate said screw means through engagement of said inner and outer gears, said operating ring further comprising an end surface which is engaged with said engaging surface of said flange member while defining a revolution and allowing rotation of said rotating ring; wherein said rotating ring comprises a unidirectional torque limiter for cutting off transmission of torque in a tightening direction as supplied from said operating ring to said object being tightened.
