In the locked state, a part of the magnet small ball 311 can reach the outside of the clamping groove 301, so that the screw 101 is contacted with the fastened structure to complete secondary fixation, and in the unlocked state, the whole magnet small ball 311 is positioned in the clamping groove 301, so that the screw 101 can be conveniently screwed into the fastened structure. Preferably, as shown in fig. 3, two or more magnet beads 311 are provided in each engagement groove 301, further increasing the strength of the secondary fixation. Preferably, the inclination angle of the groove bottom surfaces of the plurality of engaging grooves 301 may be different, the cross section of the engaging grooves 301 may be formed as needed, and one engaging groove 301 may be provided, but accordingly, the secondary fixing strength may be reduced. Preferably, as shown in fig. 19, the engaging member 310 may also be in the shape of a square block, a wedge block, or the like, and the structures such as a magnet square block and a magnet wedge block will not turn over in the engaging groove 301, so that the guiding performance is good when the permanent magnet is used as the engaging member 310, but the disadvantage is that the guiding is not as flexible and convenient as the magnet pellets 311. Preferably, as shown in fig. 20, the nail head 111 is further provided with a bidirectional engagement structure, two pairs of engagement grooves 301 with different groove bottom inclination directions are provided on the bidirectional engagement structure, and the pressing springs 204 and the magnet balls 311 are provided in the engagement grooves, so that the bidirectional engagement structure can simultaneously prevent the screw 101 from loosening in two axial directions during use, and the fixation is more reliable.

Example 2:
This embodiment is a modification of the structure provided in embodiment 1. The engaging grooves 301 are not arranged individually in the circumferential direction of the shank 112, but extend in the circumferential direction of the shank 112 to form annular grooves or arc-shaped grooves, and the groove bottoms of the engaging grooves 301 are still arranged obliquely. As shown in fig. 4, the engaging member 310 is a combined structure of an arc-shaped magnet 312 and a closing elastic member 313, that is, the two arc-shaped magnets 312 are connected by the closing elastic member 313 to form an annular structure, and are sleeved on the bottom surface of the engaging groove 301, and the closing elastic member 313 may be a spring, a reed or the like. Under the action of an external magnetic field, the clamping piece 310 moves from right to left, the unlocking state is converted into the locking state, the closing elastic piece 313 is stretched, and the arc-shaped magnet 312 extends out of the clamping groove 301, so that secondary fixation is formed on the fastened piece.
Preferably, as shown in fig. 5, the engaging member 310 is an elastic ring-shaped magnet 314, and the elastic ring-shaped magnet 314 has a structure with a special direction, such as an oval shape, in the unlocked state, and in the locked state, the elastic ring-shaped magnet 314 stretches into a circular shape under the action of an external magnetic field, so as to realize the engaging function, and after the external magnetic field is removed, the elastic ring-shaped magnet 314 changes into a structure with a special direction again under the action of a rebound force, that is, the transition between the unlocked state and the locked state is completed through the elastic stretching and shrinking of the elastic ring-shaped magnet 314. Preferably, as shown in fig. 6, the engaging member 310 is a combined structure of an arc-shaped elastic member 315 and a magnet, that is, the arc-shaped elastic member 315 is in a non-closed structure, the arc-shaped elastic member 315 is used as a supporting frame, and one or more magnets are arranged along the length extension direction of the arc-shaped elastic member 315. Preferably, as shown in fig. 7, the engaging member 310 has a structure of two magnetic rings 316, the magnetic poles of the two magnetic rings 316 are oppositely arranged, a secondary fixing effect is obtained through repulsive force, and an external magnetic field can be applied to counteract or reduce repulsive force between the two magnetic rings 316 in the disassembly process, so that unlocking is facilitated. Preferably, as shown in fig. 8, the engaging member 310 is a combination of a wavy ring 317 and a pressing piece 318, and when the screw is installed, the wavy ring 317 is deformed, so that the pressing piece 318 is pressed to perform secondary fixing, and the pressing piece 318 may be a pressing ring or a pressing piece. Preferably, as shown in fig. 9, the engaging member 310 is an elastic base 319, the elastic base 319 is filled with magnetic particles, the elastic base 319 has a certain extensibility, and when the magnetic body is driven by an external magnetic field, the elastic base 319 displaces to complete the transition from the unlocked state to the locked state.

Preferably, the inclination angle of the bottom surface of the annular groove changes along with the circumferential extension, as shown in fig. 3, in the vertical section, the slope of the bottom surface of the upper groove is small, and the slope of the bottom surface of the lower groove is large. Further preferably, the engaging member 310 is circular, elliptical or arc-shaped, and a part or the whole of the engaging member 310 is a magnet. The locking piece 310 extends from the upper left to the lower right in the unlocking state, the locking piece 310 can be wholly positioned in the locking groove 301 because the slope of the bottom surface of the upper groove is longer, the lower part of the locking piece 310 moves leftwards and downwards under the action of an external magnetic field in the locking state of the locking piece 310, and the locking piece 310 can protrude out of the locking groove 301 because the slope of the bottom surface of the lower groove is shorter, so that the secondary fixing effect on a fastened piece is realized.
Example 3:
This embodiment is a modification of the structure provided in embodiment 1. As shown in fig. 10, the tail portion 113 of the nail is provided with a positioning hole 201, the positioning hole 201 is mutually communicated with the engagement groove 301, a push rod 202 is slidably mounted in the positioning hole 201, and the push rod 202 is used for pushing the engagement member 310 from the corresponding position in the unlocked state to the corresponding position in the locked state. The engaging member 310 does not necessarily have magnetism because of the contact type driving method. In the use process, after the screw 101 is installed in the fastened piece to complete primary fixing, the push rod 202 is pushed into the positioning hole 201, so that the clamping piece 310 is displaced along the bottom surface of the inclined groove, the locking state is converted to complete secondary fixing, and finally the positioning hole 201 is encapsulated to form the encapsulating part 203, and the position of the push rod 202 is fixed.

Example 5
This embodiment is a modification of the structure provided in embodiment 1. As shown in fig. 13, the engagement groove 301 is shown in an intermediate position of the shank 112. In the actual use process, when one of the two fastened components is relatively soft, and the clamping member 310 contacts with the component with relatively soft material, the secondary fixing effect may be poor, and by changing the position of the clamping groove 301, the clamping member 310 can contact and clamp with the other component with relatively hard material, so as to obtain a better secondary fixing effect.
