It was invented to provide an "automatic screw-driver" function on assembly lines. When the screw was tightened sufficiently, the bit would start to slip.That is, unlike the TORX screw, the Philips-head was not for the purpose of increasing the torque on screws.Henry F. Phillips formed the Phillips Screw Company in 1934, and after refining the design himself (U.S. Patent #2,046,343, U.S. Patents #2,046,837 to 2,046,840) for the American Screw Company of Providence, Rhode Island, succeeded in getting the design quickly adopted by industry.
