A screw joint is a one-degree-of-freedom kinematic pair used in mechanisms.
[1] Screw joints provide single-axis translation by utilizing the threads of a lead screw to provide such translation.
[2] A screw joint is sometimes considered as a separate type but it is actually a variation of bolted joint.
The difference is that a screw is used rather than a bolt, thus requiring an internal thread in one of the jointed parts.
This can save space, however, continuous reuse of the thread would probably damage the coils, making the whole part unsuitable.
