Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft einen elektronischen Flachschlüssel mit einem Griffteil (2) und einem Schlüsselbart (3), wobei das Griffteil (2) ein Gehäuse (4) umfaßt, in dem eine elektronische Schaltungseinrichtung (12) zur Fernbetätigung eines Schlosses oder Schloßsystems sowie eine Aufnahme (16) für mindestens eine Batterie (17) zur Stromversorgung der Schaltungseinrichtung angeordnet ist, wobei das Griffteilgehäuse (4) zwei schalenförmig ausgebildete Seitenteile (5,6) umfaßt, und wobei der Schlüsselbart (3) von einer eingeklappten Stellung, bei der er sich in einer seitlichen Vertiefung (10) des Griffteilgehäuses (4) befindet, in eine ausgeklappte Stellung verschwenkbar an dem Griffteilgehäuse (4) angeordnet ist.The invention relates to an electronic flat key with a handle part (2) and a Key bit (3), wherein the handle part (2) comprises a housing (4) in which an electronic Circuit device (12) for remote operation of a lock or lock system and a receptacle (16) for at least one battery (17) for powering the Circuit device is arranged, the handle part housing (4) two shell-shaped trained side parts (5,6), and wherein the key bit (3) of a folded Position in which it is in a lateral recess (10) of the handle part housing (4) is arranged in a folded position on the handle part housing (4) is.

Um zu erreichen, daß das Griffteilgehäuse (4) auch aus metallischen schalenförmig aufgebauten Seitenteilen (5,6) besteht, ohne daß hierdurch eine wesentliche Beeinflussung (elektrische Abschattung) der in dem Gehäuse (4) befindlichen Sende- und/oder Empfangselemente zur Fernbetätigung eines Schlosses oder Schloßsystems erfolgt, schlägt die Erfindung vor, zwischen den beiden aus Metall bestehenden schalenförmig ausgebildeten Seitenteilen (5,6) des Griffteilgehäuses (4) ein rahmenförmig ausgebildetes Mittelteil (7) aus einem elektrisch nicht leitenden Material anzuordnen, welches randseitig mindestens in Teilbereichen (8) des Griffteilgehäuses (4) bis an die äußere Oberfläche (9) des Gehäuses (4) reicht und für eine ausreichende Signalübertragung zwischen den im Griffteilgehäuse (4) und den im Schloßbereich bzw. Schloßsystembereich befindlichen Sende- und/oder Empfangselementen ausreicht.

Figure 00000001
In order to ensure that the handle part housing (4) also consists of metallic shell-shaped side parts (5, 6), without this having any significant influence (electrical shading) on the transmitting and / or receiving elements in the housing (4) for remote operation of a If the lock or lock system is used, the invention proposes to arrange a frame-shaped middle part (7) made of an electrically non-conductive material between the two shell-shaped side parts (5, 6) of the handle part housing (4) 8) of the handle part housing (4) extends to the outer surface (9) of the housing (4) and is sufficient for sufficient signal transmission between the transmission part and / or receiver elements located in the handle part housing (4) and in the lock area or lock system area.
