The invention relates to a countersunk screw having a threaded shank and a countersunk head, which latter has a conical surface tapering at a countersinking angle in the direction of the threaded shank. The conical surface has a plurality of ribbed protrusions distributed over the periphery and jointly defining a conical enveloping surface with a cone angle. The countersinking angle of the conical surface is less than the cone angle of the ribbed protrusions. The ribbed protrusions have outer bearing surfaces, which define the conical enveloping surface and which, in terms of their areal size, are dimensioned in dependence on a material-specific surface pressure such that, in a screw application for fastening fittings or the like by screwing into a sinkhole between the ribbed protrusions and the respective sinkhole, a certain, surface-damage-preventing surface pressure is generated. The ribbed protrusions are additionally designed such that, in a screw application involving direct, countersinking screwing into a soft material, such as, in particular, wood, they have a milling effect.

The invention claimed is: 1. A countersunk screw for fastening a metal part having a preformed sinkhole or for fastening a part formed of a soft material, including wood, not having a preformed sinkhole, the screw comprising: a threaded shank and a countersunk head, the countersunk head having a co
The invention claimed is: 1. A countersunk screw for fastening a metal part having a preformed sinkhole or for fastening a part formed of a soft material, including wood, not having a preformed sinkhole, the screw comprising: a threaded shank and a countersunk head, the countersunk head having a conical surface tapering at a countersinking angle in the direction of the threaded shank, the countersunk head having a plurality of ribbed protrusions protruding from the conical surface, the ribbed protrusions include outer bearing surfaces, the ribbed protrusions having flanks defining limit lines, the limit lines generally converging in the direction of the threaded shank, wherein the outer bearing surfaces jointly define a conical enveloping surface with a cone angle, the conical enveloping surface and the conical surface jointly define a total cone surface area, the countersinking angle of the conical surface being less than the cone angle of the conical enveloping surface, wherein the surface area of the conical enveloping surface lies within the range of at least 40% to about 60% of the total cone surface area, wherein the ribbed protrusions have an inner periphery and an outer periphery, the inner periphery being closer to the threaded shank than the outer periphery, the inner periphery being more narrow than the outer periphery, wherein when the screw is used for fastening the metal part having a preformed sinkhole the ribbed protrusions do not exert sufficient surface pressure to damage a contact surface of the sinkhole, and wherein when the screw is used for fastening the part formed of the soft material not having a preformed sinkhole the ribbed protrusions have a milling effect on the soft material to form a sinkhole. 2. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 1, wherein the sum of the areas of the bearing surfaces of all the ribbed protrusions is approximately equal to the sum of the areas lying between the ribbed protrusions. 3. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 1, wherein the countersinking angle lies approximately within the range from 50�� to 60��. 4. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 3, wherein the countersinking angle lies within the range from 53�� to 55��. 5. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 1, wherein the cone angle measures around 90��. 6. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 1, wherein the ribbed protrusions, starting from an outer periphery of the countersunk head, extend essentially in the radial direction, at least up to the region of an axial projection of a thread of the threaded shank. 7. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 1, wherein the ribbed protrusions are provided in similar design and in a number from three to eight in an even, radially symmetric peripheral distribution. 8. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 7, wherein six of the ribbed protrusions are provided. 9. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 1, wherein each ribbed protrusion, in terms of its bearing surface, is configured essentially as a circular ring cutout with the flanks running approximately radially. 10. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 1, wherein each ribbed protrusion is limited in the peripheral direction by two of the flanks, the flanks forming with the respectively adjoining surface of the conical surface a flank angle greater than/equal to 90��. 11. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 10, wherein a first of the flanks which, during rotation, points forward in a screw-in direction has a flank angle lying between 90�� and 95��, whereas a second of the flanks preferably has a flank angle of greater than/equal to 95��. 12. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 1, wherein the threaded shank comprises an at least segmentally cylindrical core and a thread running as an elevation across the core. 13. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 12, wherein the thread has a flank angle of around 35��. 14. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 12, wherein the thread has a pitch which is dependent on a thread nominal diameter and measures about 60�� of the nominal diameter. 15. The countersunk screw as claimed in claim 1, wherein the countersunk head has a force application socket for a turning tool.
