Abstract

A key holder comprising a plate provided with an elastic ring and a detent pawl is insertable into a flat sleeve. The plate has a notch which receives an end section of the ring. The end section is non-displaceable in its fully inserted position since the notch lies within the opening shaft of the flat sleeve.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Schlüsselanhänger gemäß Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a key fob according to the preamble of claim 1.

Ein derartiger Schlüsselanhänger ist bekannt aus dem DE-GM 7 903 167, wobei die sich an den elastischen Bügel anschließenden Abschnitte als endseitig mit einem Haken versehene Federschenkel ausgebildet sind, die in Einsteckstellung durch Freischnitt erzielte, einwärts gebogene, sich gegenüberliegende Haltezungen der Flachhülse hintergreifen. Diese Bauform ist wenig gebrauchssicher. Durch ungewollten seitlichen Druck auf den elastischen Bügel, bspw. beim Tragen des Schlüsselanhängers in einer Tasche kann die Raststellung bereits aufgehoben werden. Der Bügel rutscht heraus und die Schlüssel können sodann den Bügel verlassen.Such a key fob is known from DE-GM 7 903 167, the sections adjoining the elastic bracket being designed as spring legs provided with a hook on the end, which in the inserted position engage by recessed, inwardly curved, opposing retaining tongues of the flat sleeve. This design is not very safe to use. The locking position can already be canceled by unwanted lateral pressure on the elastic bracket, for example when carrying the key fob in a pocket. The bracket slips out and the keys can then leave the bracket.

Dem Gegenstand der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Schlüsselanhänger der vorausgesetzten Gattung in herstellungstechnisch einfacher Weise so auszugestalten, daß neben einem leichten Anbringen der Schlüssel am Bügel eine sichere Gebrauchsstellung vorliegt derart, daß ein Abnehmen von Schlüsseln vom Schlüsselanhänger nur willensbetont durchführbar ist.The object of the invention is based on the object of designing a key fob of the type in question in a technically simple manner such that, in addition to easily attaching the key to the bracket, there is a safe use position such that a removal of keys from the key fob can only be carried out with a strong will.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch das Kennzeichen des Anspruchs 1.This problem is solved by the characterizing part of claim 1.

Zufolge derartiger Ausgestaltung ist ein gattungsgemäßer Schlüsselanhänger von erhöhtem Gebrauchswert angegeben. Das Zuordnen von Schlüsseln dem Schlüsselanhänger geschieht in der Weise, daß bei nicht eingesteckter Platte das freie Ende des Bügels aus der Nische zum Aufreihen des Schlüssels bzw. der Schlüssel herausgeschwenkt wird. Nach Anbringen der Schlüssel kehrt das Ende zufolge der Elastizität des Bügels in die Nische zurück. Die endgültige Sicherung der Schlüssel erfolgt erst mit dem Einschieben der Platte in die Flachhülse, wobei die Rastklinke in der Einsteck-Endstellung in die Öffnung der Wand der Flachhülse eingreifen kann. In dieser Einsteck-Endstellung erstreckt sich dann die Nische im Schacht der Flachhülse, so daß jede Verlagerung des in der Nische befindlichen Endes des elastischen Bügels ausgeschlossen ist. Ein Abnehmen von Schlüsseln vom Schlüsselanhänger muß daher willensbetont geschehen. Dies verlangt erstens das Herausziehen der Platte mit daran sitzendem Bügel nach Beaufschlagen der Drucktaste und zweitens das Herausschwenken des in der Nische einliegenden Endes des Bügels. Die Platte erfüllt daher im Grunde genommen zwei Sicherungsfunktionen. Da die als Rastklinke ausgebildete Drucktaste der Platte in der Wand der Flachhülse einliegt, befindet sie sich an geschützter Stelle, was einem ungewollten Auslösen der Rastklinke entgegenwirkt.As a result of such a configuration, a generic key fob of increased utility value is specified. The assignment of keys to the key fob is done in such a way that, when the plate is not inserted, the free end of the bracket is pivoted out of the recess to line up the key or keys. After attaching the key, the end returns to the niche due to the elasticity of the bracket. The keys are only finally secured when the plate is inserted into the flat sleeve, and the locking pawl can engage in the opening of the wall of the flat sleeve in the inserted end position. In this plug-in end position, the niche then extends in the shaft of the flat sleeve, so that any displacement of the end of the elastic bracket located in the niche is excluded. Removing keys from the key fob must therefore be done with the will in mind. This requires firstly pulling out the plate with the bracket attached to it after pressing the pushbutton, and secondly swiveling out the end of the bracket lying in the niche. The plate therefore basically fulfills two security functions. Since the push button of the plate, which is designed as a latch, lies in the wall of the flat sleeve, it is located at a protected location, which counteracts an unwanted triggering of the latch.

Eine vorteilhafte Weiterbildung besteht darin, daß der Bügel über die Längsseitenkante des Flachhülsen-Schachtes vorsteht.An advantageous development is that the bracket protrudes over the long side edge of the flat sleeve shaft.

Ein weiterer Vorteil ist darin zu sehen, daß die Einschnapp-Öffnung an der Breitseitenwand der Flachhülse angeordnet ist und die Rastklinke als freigeschnittene, aus der Plattenebene schräg in Richtung des Bügels ansteigend vorstehende Kreisfläche gebildet ist. Während der Einsteckbewegung wird die Rastklinke in Einwärtsrichtung gedrückt. Erst wenn sie in fluchtende Lage zur querschnittsangepaßten Einschnapp-Öffnung gelangt, federt sie in ihre Raststellung und sichert die Lage von Flachhülse und Platte zueinander. Die Kreisform von Rastklinke und Einschnapp-Öffnung kommt dabei einer günstigen Herstellung entgegen.Another advantage can be seen in the fact that the snap-in opening is arranged on the broad side wall of the flat sleeve and the latching pawl is formed as a circular surface which is cut free and protrudes from the plane of the plate at an angle and rising in the direction of the bracket. During the insertion movement, the latch is pressed inwards. Only when it comes into alignment with the cross-section-adapted snap-in opening does it spring into its latching position and secure the position of the flat sleeve and plate relative to one another. The circular shape of the latch and snap-in opening accommodates an inexpensive manufacture.

Der Sicherheitswert des Schlüsselanhängers ist dadurch erhöht, daß die Nische winkelförmig gestaltet ist und sich ein Schenkel quergerichtet zur Einsteckrichtung der Platte erstreckt. Ist der Bügel mit Platte der Flachhülse zugeordnet, so kann auch durch größere Krafteinwirkung auf den Bügel der quergerichtete Schenkel nicht aus der Nische herausbewegt werden.The security value of the key fob is increased in that the niche is angular and one leg extends transversely to the direction of insertion of the plate. If the bracket with plate is assigned to the flat sleeve, the transverse leg cannot be moved out of the niche even by exerting greater force on the bracket.

Bei Herstellung der Platte mit Bügel aus Kunststoff mit entsprechenden federnden Eigenschaften ist es von Vorteil, daß ein abgewinkelter Abschnitt des Bügels mit Spiel in dem quergerichteten Nischen-Schenkel einliegt. Hierbei erweist es sich als günstig, daß das Spiel durch vorstehende Spitzen der Nischenwand begrenzt ist. Diese können beim Spritzvorgang miterzeugt werden.When manufacturing the plate with a bracket made of plastic with corresponding resilient properties, it is advantageous that an angled section of the bracket rests with play in the transverse niche leg. It proves to be favorable that the game is limited by protruding tips of the niche wall. These can be created during the spraying process.

Damit die Rastklinke auch bei größeren auf den Bügel wirkenden Kräften nicht aus ihrer bestimmungsgemäßen Lage gerät, besitzt sie einen Anschlag, der gegen den Rand der Öffnung der Flachhülsenwand stößt.So that the latch does not get out of its intended position even with larger forces acting on the bracket, it has a stop which abuts the edge of the opening of the flat sleeve wall.

Darüberhinaus besteht ein vorteilhaftes Merkmal darin, daß die Platte an ihrer einschubseitigen Stirnkante gerundet gestaltet ist und Federzungen besitzt, die sich gegen den Boden des Schachtes der Flachhülse anlegen. In der Einsteck-Endstellung stehen die Federzungen unter Spannung und bewirken eine feste Anlage der dem Bügel zugekehrten Randkante der Rastklinke an dem entsprechenden Wandungsabschnitt der Einschnappöffnung. Das mit den Federzungen versehene gerundete Ende gestattet ein leichtes Einführen der Platte in die Flachhülse.In addition, there is an advantageous feature that the plate is rounded on its insert-side end edge and has spring tongues which bear against the bottom of the shaft of the flat sleeve. In the inserted end position, the spring tongues are under tension and bring about a firm contact of the edge of the latch facing the bracket with the corresponding wall section of the snap opening. The rounded end with the spring tongues allows easy insertion of the plate into the flat sleeve.

Eine weitere Variante zeichnet sich durch zwei in eine Flachhülse in entgegengesetzte Richtungen einschiebbare Platten aus.Another variant is characterized by two plates which can be inserted into a flat sleeve in opposite directions.

Bei einer Abwandlung dieser Varianten können sich die beiden Platten überlappen.If these variants are modified, the two plates can overlap.

Drei Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung werden nachstehend anhand der Fig. 1 bis 9 erläutert. Es zeigt:

  • 9 shows the section along the line IX-IX in FIG. 8.

Gemäß der ersten Ausführungsform besitzt der Schlüsselanhänger eine aus Kunststoff gefertigte Flachhülse 1. Diese setzt sich zusammen aus den beiden Breitseitenwänden 11 und 12, den Längsseitenwänden 13 und 14 sowie dem Boden 15. Auf diese Weise ist ein Schacht 16 gebildet.According to the first embodiment, the key fob has a flat sleeve 1 made of plastic. This is composed of the two broad side walls 11 and 12, the longitudinal side walls 13 and 14 and the bottom 15. In this way, a shaft 16 is formed.

Die Breitseitenwände 11, 12 der Flachhülse 1 sind im Bereich der Schachtmündung zu einer Kehle 17 geformt, die in schräg in die Längsseitenwände einlaufende Abschnitte 18 übergeht.The wide side walls 11, 12 of the flat sleeve 1 are formed in the region of the shaft mouth to form a throat 17 which merges into sections 18 which run obliquely into the longitudinal side walls.

In der einen Breitseitenwand 11 befindet sich eine im Querschnitt kreisförmige Einschnapp-Öffnung 2.In one broad side wall 11 there is a snap-in opening 2 with a circular cross section.

Vom Boden 15 der Flachhülse 1 gehen symmetrisch zur Symmetrielinie der Flachhülse 1 Stützrippen 19 aus, die die beiden Breitseitenwände 11, 12 miteinander verbinden und mit Abstand vor der Einschnapp-Öffnung 2 enden.Support ribs 19, which connect the two broad side walls 11, 12 and end at a distance in front of the snap-in opening 2, extend from the base 15 of the flat sleeve 1 symmetrically to the line of symmetry of the flat sleeve 1.

Die Flachhülse 1 wirkt zusammen mit einer in diese einzuschiebenden Platte 3. Diese besteht ebenfalls aus geeignetem Kunststoff. Von der einen Randkante 20 der Platte geht ein elatischer Bügel 6 aus. Dieser formt in Verbindung mit der Platte 3 eine ovale Öffnung 21. Der Bügel 6 endet in einen quer zur Einschubrichtung der Platte abgewinkelten Abschnitt 7, der sich an einen geradlinigen Abschnitt-22 des Bügels 6 anschließt. Der geradlinige Abschnitt 22 seinerseits erstreckt sich auf Höhe der der Randkante 20 gegenüberliegenden Randkante 23.The flat sleeve 1 interacts with a plate 3 to be inserted therein. This also consists of a suitable plastic. An elastic strap 6 extends from one edge 20 of the plate. This forms an oval opening 21 in connection with the plate 3. The bracket 6 ends in a section 7 which is angled transversely to the insertion direction of the plate and which adjoins a rectilinear section 22 of the bracket 6. The rectilinear section 22 in turn extends at the level of the edge 23 opposite the edge 20.

Der geradlinige Abschnitt 22 und der abgewinkelte Abschnitt 7 ragen in eine winkelförmig gestaltete Nische 24 der Platte derart, daß der geradlinige Abschnitt 22 des Bügels in dem einen Schenkel 24' und der abgewinkelte Abschnitt 7 in dem Nischen-Schenkel 24" mit Spiel einliegt. Zur Begrenzung des Spiels sind an der Nischenwand drei vorstehende Spitzen 25, 26 und 27 vorgesehen. Die Spitzen 25, 27 liegen einander gegenüber und erstrecken sich in Einsteckrichtung, während die Spitze 26 der Stirnkante des abgewinkelten Abschnitts 7 zugekehrt ist.The rectilinear section 22 and the angled section 7 protrude into an angled recess 24 of the plate such that the rectilinear section 22 of the bracket lies in one leg 24 'and the angled section 7 in the niche leg 24 "with play To limit the play, three projecting tips 25, 26 and 27 are provided on the niche wall. The tips 25, 27 lie opposite one another and extend in the insertion direction, while the tip 26 faces the front edge of the angled section 7.

Die Platte 3 enthält auf ihrem einsteckseitigen Ende eine als Drucktaste ausgebildete Rastklinke 8. Diese ist als freigeschnittene, aus der Plattenebene schräg in Richtung des Bügels 6 ansteigend vorstehende Kreisfläche gebildet. Der Freischnitt erstreckt sich über einen Winkelbetrag derart, daß die Materialbrücke dem einsteckseitigen Ende der Platte zugekehrt ist. Im Bereich der Materialbrücke ist durch eine quer zur Einsteckrichtung verlaufende Nut 30 ein Scharnier gebildet, um welches die Rastklinke schwenkbar ist.The plate 3 contains on its plug-in end a locking pawl 8 designed as a pushbutton. This is formed as a circular surface that is cut free and protrudes from the plate plane obliquely in the direction of the bracket 6. The free cut extends over an angular amount in such a way that the material bridge faces the insertion end of the plate. In the area of the material bridge, a hinge is formed by a groove 30 extending transversely to the direction of insertion, about which the latch can be pivoted.

Die Rastklinke 8 weist an dem der Nut 30 gegenüberliegenden Rand R einen bogenförmig verlaufenden Anschlag 31 auf.The detent pawl 8 has an arcuate stop 31 on the edge R opposite the groove 30.

Wie die Zeichnungen erkennen lassen, ist die Platte 3 an ihrer einschubseitigen Stirnkante 32 gerundet gestaltet und besitzt dort zwei Federzungen 33, 34, die durch einen bogenförmigen Längsschlitz 35 geformt sind.As can be seen from the drawings, the plate 3 is rounded on its insert-side end edge 32 and there has two spring tongues 33, 34 which are shaped by an arcuate longitudinal slot 35.

Aus Fig. 2 ist zu entnehmen, daß der Bügel 6 über die Randkanten 20, 23 der Platte 3 vorsteht. Der Abstand zwischen den beiden Randkanten 20, 23 ist etwas geringer als das Maß zwischen den beiden Längsseitenkanten des Schachtes 16.From Fig. 2 it can be seen that the bracket 6 protrudes over the edge edges 20, 23 of the plate 3. The distance between the two peripheral edges 20, 23 is slightly less than the dimension between the two longitudinal side edges of the shaft 16.

Sollen der Platte 3 Schlüssel zugeordnet werden, so ist der elastisch verformbare Bügel 6 so zu verschwenken, daß der abgewinkelte Abschnitt 7 des Bügels 6 die Nische 24 verläßt. Es können dann die Schlüssel aufgereiht werden. Nach Loslassen des Bügelendes kehrt der Abschnitt 7 in die Nische 24 zurück. Es kann nun die Platte 3 eingeschoben werden. In der Einsteck-Endstellung beaufschlagen die Federzungen 33, 34 die vom Boden 15 der Flachhülse ausgehenden Stege 19, während die Rastklinke 8 in die Einschnapp-Öffnung 2 der Flachhülse eintaucht. Die Federzungen 33, 34 bewirken nun, daß die Rastklinke 8 mit ihrem dem Bügel 6 zugekehrten Rand R in Anlage zum Wandungsabschnitt 2' der Einschnappöffnung 2 gelangt. In dieser Stellung befindet sich der Anschlag 31 der Rastklinke unterhalb des Wandungsabschnitts 2', so daß sie nicht aus der Öffnung 2 herausschwenken kann, vergl. insbesondere Fig. 6.If keys 3 are to be assigned to the plate, the elastically deformable bracket 6 must be pivoted such that the angled section 7 of the bracket 6 leaves the recess 24. The keys can then be lined up. After releasing the temple end, section 7 returns to recess 24. The plate 3 can now be inserted. In the inserted end position, the spring tongues 33, 34 act on the webs 19 extending from the bottom 15 of the flat sleeve, while the latching pawl 8 plunges into the snap-in opening 2 of the flat sleeve. The spring tongues 33, 34 now cause the latch 8 with its edge R facing the bracket 6 to come into contact with the wall section 2 'of the snap-in opening 2. In this position, the stop 31 of the latch is located below the wall section 2 ', so that it cannot pivot out of the opening 2, cf. in particular FIG. 6.

In der Einsteck-Endstellung liegt die Nische 24 im Bereich des Schachtes 16 der Flachhülse. Das bedeutet, daß der abgewinkelte Abschnitt 7 des Bügels 6 gegen jedes Herausschwenken gesichert ist, vergl. hierzu Fig. 5.In the insertion end position, the recess 24 is located in the area of the shaft 16 of the flat sleeve. This means that the angled section 7 of the bracket 6 is secured against any pivoting out, cf. FIG. 5.

Das Abnehmen der Platte 3 von der Flachhülse 1 erfordert ein Beaufschlagen der Rastklinke 8 in Einwärtsrichtung. Hierbei müssen die Kräfte der Federzungen 19 überwunden werden.The removal of the plate 3 from the flat sleeve 1 requires loading of the latch 8 in the inward direction. The forces of the spring tongues 19 must be overcome here.

This is approximately twice as long as the flat sleeve 1. On the opposite sides of the flat sleeve 36 there are similarly shaped shafts. Furthermore, snap-in openings 2 are provided on a broad side wall 37, which cooperate with the latches 8 of the plates 3 to be inserted. In this embodiment, the flat sleeve 36 also contains webs, not shown, which act on the spring tongues 33, 34 of the plates 3.

Bei der dritten Ausführungsform nach den Fig. 8 und 9 können in eine Flachhülse 38 ebenfalls Platten 3 in entgegengesetzten Richtungen eingeschoben werden. Die Flachhülse 38 enthält zu diesem Zweck zwei parallel zueinander liegende, von entgegengesetzten Richtungen ausgehende Schächte 39, 40, die durch eine Zwischenwand 41 voneinander getrennt sind. Auf den äußeren Breitseitenwänden der Flachhülse 38 sind die Einschnapp-Öffnungen 2 vorgesehen, die mit den Rastklinken 8 der Platten 3 zusammenwirken.In the third embodiment according to FIGS. 8 and 9, plates 3 can also be inserted into a flat sleeve 38 in opposite directions.
