Abstract

A vibration-isolating screw is disclosed. The vibration-isolating screw includes a screw head and a screw tail portion. The screw head includes a first screw body, a first magnetic element, a second screw body, a second magnetic element, a third screw body and a third magnetic element. The first magnetic element and the second magnetic element are mounted on the first screw body and the second screw body, respectively. The third screw body is mounted between the first screw body and the second screw body. The third magnetic element comprises a first end and a second end and is mounted on the third screw body. The first end and the first magnetic element are adjacent and mutual repulsion. The second end and the second magnetic element are adjacent and mutual repulsion. The screw tail portion is connected with the second screw body.

Claims (20)

1. A vibration-isolating screw for fixing a vibrating element on a main structure and reducing the vibration effect on the main structure caused by the vibrating element, the vibration-isolating screw comprising:

a screw head comprising:

a first screw body;

a first magnetic element mounted on the first screw body;

a second screw body;

a second magnetic element mounted on the second screw body;

a third screw body mounted between the first screw body and the second screw body, used for being connected with the vibrating element; and

a third magnetic element mounted on the third screw body, wherein the third magnetic element comprises a first end and a second end, the first end and the first magnetic element are adjacent and mutual repulsion, the second end and the second magnetic element are adjacent and mutual repulsion; and

a screw tail portion connected with the second screw body, used for fixing the vibrating element on the main structure, wherein the screw tail portion comprises a thread.

2. The vibration-isolating screw as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the third screw body comprises a slot for allowing the third screw body to be connected with the vibrating element.

3. The vibration-isolating screw as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the first screw body further comprises at least one hook, the second screw body further comprises at least one fixing hole, and the third screw body further comprises at least one through hole; the at least one hook is inserted through the at least one through hole and the at least one fixing hole to connect the first screw body, the second screw body and the third screw body.

4. The vibration-isolating screw as claimed in claim 3 , wherein a first gap is formed between the first screw body and the third screw body, and a second gap is formed between the second screw body and the third screw body.

5. The vibration-isolating screw as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the first magnetic element is mounted on the first screw body by gluing method, and the second magnetic element is mounted on the second screw body by gluing method.

6. The vibration-isolating screw as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the first screw body, the second screw body and the third screw body are formed in a disk shape separately.

7. The vibration-isolating screw as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the slot is a circular slot.

8. The vibration-isolating screw as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the third magnetic element comprises an upper magnetic element and a lower magnetic element, the upper magnetic element is mounted in the third screw body adjacent to a side of the first screw body, and the lower magnetic element is mounted in the third screw body adjacent to a side of the second screw body.

9. The vibration-isolating screw as claimed in claim 3 , wherein each one of the at least one hook comprises a slender portion and a hook portion, and the slender portion has a length longer than a thickness of the third screw body.

10. The vibration-isolating screw as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the first screw body further comprises a plurality of hooks, the second screw body further comprises a plurality of fixing holes, and the third screw body further comprises a plurality of through holes; the plurality of hooks are inserted through the plurality of through holes and the plurality of fixing holes to connect the first screw body, the second screw body and the third screw body.

11. The vibration-isolating screw as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the first screw body further comprises four hooks, the second screw body further comprises four fixing holes, and the third screw body further comprises four through holes; the four hooks are inserted through the four through holes and the four fixing holes to connect the first screw body, the second screw body, and the third screw body.

12. The vibration-isolating screw as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a first gap is formed between the first screw body and the third screw body, and a second gap is formed between the second screw body and the third screw body.
