Abstract

PURPOSE:To certainly maintain a tightening state by way of simplifying tightening and loosening of screw connection without needing a large torque or force by forming a washer of a non-conductive material having a function to restore its shape before it is deformed when it is heated after deformed. CONSTITUTION:A washer 1 made of a thermoplastic shape memory resin is previously processed by way of shrinking its thickness, proceeded to be screwed to a tightening object material 4 of a bolt 2 through a sandwiched material 3, and when the washer 1 touches a bolt head lower surface 2a, application of microwave is carried out. As a result, temperature rises to allow the washer 1 to extend and deform to restore its shape having some thickness with that before the shrinkage. The washer 1 is then brought into pressure contact with a thread ridge and comes to be in the shrink fit state. Accordingly, it is easy to tighten and loosen the washer 1 and ascertain tightening after fastening, and it is possible to improve the workability.

Conventionally, as a washer that actively prevents the loosening of a screw connection, the contact pressure of the screw thread is particularly increased and maintained.
Spring washers, rubber washers, etc. are used, but after long-term use, the screw connections often loosen due to vibrations and other factors.

In addition, in order to increase the contact pressure described above, large torque and force are required when binding, and when disassembling a screw connection, large torque and force are required to release from the above-mentioned large contact pressure.
