Description

Technisches GebietTechnical area

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Schlüsselanhänger mit einem Grundkörper und einer durch ein Fenster abgedeckten Aufnahmetasche für einen zur Identifikation des jeweils mit dem Anhänger verbundenen Schlüssels dienenden Informationsträger.The invention relates to a key fob having a base body and a receiving pocket covered by a window for an information carrier serving for identification of the key respectively associated with the trailer.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Bekannt ist ein Schlüsselanhänger der vorstehenden Art, dessen Grundkörper nach Art eines eine Rückwand aufweisenden Rahmens ausgebildet ist, in den von einer Schmalseite her ein regelmäßig von einem Kartonstreifen gebildeter Informationsträger und ein zum Schutz des Informationsträgers dienender durchsichtiger Hartfolienstreifen einschiebbar sind. Im Bereich zweier sich gegenüber liegender Seiten des Grundkörpers weist dieser jeweils ein Loch auf, von denen eines zum Aufhängen des Schlüsselanhängers und eines zur Aufnahme eines Schlüsselringes oder eines die Form einer 8 aufweisenden Zwischengliedes dient, der bzw. das gleichzeitig zur Sicherung der Lage des Informationsträgers und des ein Fenster bildenden Hartfolienstreifens im Grundkörpers nutzbar ist (vgl. SCHÄFER SHOP Hauptkatalog 2003/ 2004, S. 559 ). Dieser bekannte Schlüsselanhänger vermag nicht voll zu befriedigen, weil der Rand des zur Aufnahme des Schlüsselringes bestimmten Loches vergleichsweise stark beansprucht wird und die Führung des Schlüsselringes bzw. des Zwischengliedes durch die regelmäßig schmale Lochwand zu wünschen übrig lässt. Über die gleichen Unzulänglichkeiten verfügt auch ein aus der DE 85 21 845 U bekannter Schlüsselanhänger.Known is a key fob of the above type, whose base body is formed in the manner of a rear wall having a frame in which from a narrow side a regularly formed by a cardboard strip information carrier and serving to protect the information carrier transparent rigid film strips are inserted. In the region of two opposite sides of the body this has in each case a hole, one of which serves for suspending the key fob and one for receiving a key ring or an intermediate member having the shape of an 8, the or at the same time for securing the position of the information carrier and the hard film strip forming a window can be used in the basic body (cf. SCHÄFER SHOP Main Catalog 2003/2004, p. 559 ). This well-known key fob can not fully satisfy, because the edge of the particular hole for receiving the key ring is relatively heavily stressed and the leadership of the key ring and the intermediate member by the regular narrow hole wall leaves something to be desired. About the same shortcomings also has a from the DE 85 21 845 U known key chain.

Aus der US 2003/002277 A1 ist außerdem eine "Personal Hilfe" bekannt, die an ihrem eine Ende nach Art einer Gabel ausgebildet ist, an welcher - soweit erkennbar, vermutlich mittels an den einander zugewandten Innenseiten der Gabelzinken angeordneter Vorsprünge - unter Zwischenschaltung eines Riemens optional ein Schlüsselring befestigbar ist.From the US 2003/002277 A1 In addition, a "personal help" is known, which is formed at its one end in the manner of a fork on which - as far as recognizable, presumably by means arranged on the mutually facing inner sides of the forks projections - with the interposition of a belt optionally a key ring is fastened.

Schlüsselanhänger mit einem U-förmigen Grundkörper, dessen Joch zur Halterung von Schlüsseln dient und dessen ebenfalls eine Art Gabel bildende Schenkelenden durch ein Schließorgan überbrückbar sind, zeigen die FR 1 443 390 A und die US 2 218 932 A .Key fob with a U-shaped body whose yoke is used to hold keys and whose also a kind of fork-forming leg ends are bridged by a closing member, show the FR 1 443 390 A and the US 2 218 932 A ,

Ein speziell für Fahrzeugschlüssel geeigneter Schlüsselanhänger mit einem ebenfalls nach Art einer Gabel ausgebildeten Ende ist aus der DE 101 17 928 A1 bekannt. Bei diesem Schlüsselanhänger werden die Gabelenden durch das Joch eines in ein Loch des Schlüssels einfädelbaren Bügels überbrückt, wobei das Joch als eine Schwenkachse genutzt wird, um die der Schlüssel aus einer Arbeitsposition in eine den Bart des Schlüssels verdeckende Ablageposition überführbar ist.A suitable especially for vehicle key fob with a likewise designed like a fork end is from the DE 101 17 928 A1 known. In this key fob, the fork ends are bridged by the yoke of einfädelbaren in a hole of the key bracket, wherein the yoke is used as a pivot axis about which the key from a working position in the beard of the key concealing storage position can be transferred.

Über eine gabelförmige Halterung für einen Schlüssel verfügt auch ein aus der GB 2 319 055 bekanntes Hilfsgerät mit einem schlaufenförmigen Griff, das dazu dient, älteren Menschen das Drehen des Schlüssels in einem Schloss zu erleichtern.Also has a fork-shaped holder for a key from the GB 2 319 055 Known auxiliary device with a loop-shaped handle, which is used to facilitate elderly people turning the key in a lock.

Schließlich ist aus der US 2 414 041 A ein Schlüsselanhänger bekannt, der aus einer flexiblen Schlinge besteht, die durch einen Querbalken geschlossen ist, dessen Enden in Haltetaschen einer Schlüsselleiste einführbar sind.Finally, out of the US 2 414 041 A a key fob known, which consists of a flexible loop, which is closed by a crossbar, the ends of which are insertable into holding pockets of a key bar.

Außer dem zuerst beschriebenen bekannten Schlüsselanhänger verfügt keiner der weiteren erwähnten Schlüsselanhänger über eine durch ein Fenster abgedeckte Aufnahmetasche für eine zur Identifikation des jeweils mit dem Anhänger verbundenen Schlüssels dienenden, austauschbaren Informationsträger, so dass eine geordnete Ablage und Aufbewahrung von Schlüsseln mit ihnen praktisch kaum möglich ist.In addition to the known key fob described above, none of the other mentioned key fobs has a window-covered receiving pocket for an exchangeable information carrier serving to identify the key associated with the tag, respectively An orderly storage and storage of keys with them is virtually impossible.

Darstellung der ErfindungPresentation of the invention

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Schlüsselanhänger der in Betracht gezogenen Gattung so auszubilden, dass bei ihm ein Schlüsselring auf Dauer sicher gehalten wird. Gelöst wird die gestellte Aufgabe erfindungsgemäß dadurch, dass das eine Ende des Schlüsselanhängers nach Art einer Gabel ausgebildet ist, zwischen deren Zinken ein Haltebolzen für einen Schlüsselring angeordnet ist. Der erfindungsgemäße Schlüsselanhänger bietet den Vorteil, dass sich bei ihm die Gabel zu Führungszwecken nutzen lässt, während dem Haltebolzen lediglich eine Tragfunktion zukommt.The invention has the object of providing a key chain of the considered genus in such a way that in him a key ring is kept secure in the long run. The object is achieved according to the invention in that one end of the key fob is formed in the manner of a fork, between the tines a retaining bolt for a key ring is arranged. The key fob according to the invention has the advantage that it can use the fork for guiding purposes, while the retaining bolt plays only a supporting function.

Es erweist sich als zweckmäßig, wenn sowohl der Grundkörper als auch das Fenster nach Art von Gabeln ausgebildete Enden aufweisen, da eine entsprechende Ausbildung die Voraussetzung für eine schwenkbare Anordnung des Fensters am Grundkörper bildet. Eine solche Anordnung hat den Vorteil, dass das Fenster zum Einbringen und Entfernen eines Informationsträgers aufgeklappt werden kann, was insbesondere den Austausch von Informationsträgern spürbar erleichtert.It proves to be expedient if both the base body and the window in the form of forks have formed ends, since a corresponding training is the prerequisite for a pivotal arrangement of the window on the body. Such an arrangement has the advantage that the window for introducing and removing an information carrier can be opened, which in particular facilitates the exchange of information carriers noticeably.

Vorteilhafterweise umgreifen die Zinken des gabelförmigen Endes des Grundkörpers die Zinken des mit Bohrungen zur Aufnahme des Haltebolzens versehenen gabelförmigen Endes des Fensters.Advantageously, the tines of the fork-shaped end of the base body engage around the teeth of the fork-shaped end of the window provided with bores for receiving the retaining bolt.

Bei den bekannten Schlüsselanhängern erweist sich das Verbinden des Schlüsselringes mit dem Schlüsselanhänger deshalb als umständlich, weil der regelmäßig aus zwei Federstahldrahtwindungen bestehende Schlüsselring in das zu seiner Aufnahme dienende Loch des Anhängers oder in eine Öse des Zwischengliedes nach vorherigem Abspreizen eines Drahtendes vom Rest des Ringes gewissermaßen eingeschraubt werden muss. Dieser Nachteil lässt sich bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Schlüsselanhänger dadurch eliminieren, dass der Haltebolzen axial verschiebbar in Bohrungen mindestens eines Zinkenpaares gelagert ist. Es ist folglich durch Verschieben des Haltebolzens möglich, den zur Aufnahme eines Schlüsselringes dienenden, von benachbarten Zinken begrenzten Spalt zu öffnen, den Schlüsselring in den Spalt und anschließend den Haltebolzen durch Zurückschieben in seine Ausgangslage in den Schlüsselring einzuführen.In the known key fobs, connecting the keyring with the key fob proves to be cumbersome, because the regularly consisting of two spring steel wire turns key ring in the serving for receiving his hole of the trailer or in an eyelet of the intermediate member after previous stripping a wire end of the rest of the ring in a sense must be screwed. This disadvantage can be eliminated in the case of the key fob according to the invention in that the retaining bolt is mounted axially displaceably in bores of at least one pair of tines. It is thus possible by moving the retaining bolt to open the serving for receiving a key ring, limited by adjacent tines gap to introduce the key ring in the gap and then the retaining bolt by pushing back into its original position in the key ring.

Als besonders vorteilhaft erweist es sich, wenn das Fenster und der Grundkörper lösbar miteinander verbunden sind und die Zinken des gabelförmigen Endes des Grundkörpers an ihren einander zugewandten Seiten mit in die Bohrungen der Zinken des gabelförmigen Endes des Fensters einführbaren Schwenkzapfen versehen sind. In einem solchen Fall ist der Haltebolzen nach der Verbindung des Grundkörpers mit dem Fensters durch die Schwenkzapfen gegen ein Herausrutschen aus den Bohrungen in den Zinken des gabelförmigen Endes des Fensters gesichert.It proves to be particularly advantageous if the window and the base body are detachably connected to each other and the tines of the forked end of the body are provided on their sides facing each other with insertable into the bores of the tines of the forked end of the window pivot pin. In such a case, the retaining bolt is secured after the connection of the body with the window by the pivot pin against slipping out of the holes in the tines of the forked end of the window.

Die Handhabung des Schlüsselanhängers lässt sich zusätzlich dadurch erleichtern, dass einer der Schwenkzapfen über ein Gelenk mit dem in den Bohrungen der Zinken des gabelförmigen Endes des Fensters axial verschiebbar gelagerten Haltebolzen verbunden ist. Aufgrund der Verbindung zwischen dem Schwenkzapfen und dem Haltebolzen wird letzterer beim Trennen des Grundkörpers vom Fenster automatisch aus den Bohrungen der Zinken des gabelförmigen Endes des Fensters herausgezogen und beim Wiederzusammenfügen der Teile in seine Ausgangsposition zurückgeschoben.The handling of the key fob can be additionally facilitated by one of the pivot pin is connected via a hinge with the axially slidably mounted in the bores of the tines of the forked end of the window retaining bolts. Due to the connection between the pivot pin and the Retaining bolt is the latter automatically pulled out of the holes of the tines of the forked end of the window during separation of the body from the window and pushed back when reassembling the parts to its original position.

Bekannte Schlüsselanhänger werden regelmäßig an ihrem dem Schlüsselring abgewandten Ende an einem einzelnen Haken aufgehängt. Diese Art der Aufhängung bringt es mit sich, dass Anhänger und Schlüssel eine vergleichsweise lange Einheit bilden, die in einem Schlüsselkasten oder Schlüsselschrank vergleichsweise viel Raum beansprucht. Zur Reduzierung des Platzbedarfes empfiehlt es sich, den Schlüsselanhänger an dem Ende aufzuhängen, an dem auch der Schlüsselring angreift. Um eine derartige Aufhängung zu ermöglichen, ist der erfindungsgemäße Schlüsselanhänger im Bereich seines gabelförmigen Endes mit zwei zur seiner Aufhängung zwischen zwei benachbarten Haken dienenden, seitlichen, vorzugsweise zylindrischen Vorsprüngen versehen. Um schließlich eine freie Sicht auf den Informationsträger zu erreichen, empfiehlt es sich, das gabelförmige Ende des Schlüsselanhängers gegenüber seinem den Informationsträger aufnehmenden Hauptteil leicht nach hinten abzubiegen und auf diese Weise die Voraussetzung dafür zu schaffen, dass der aufzubewahrende Schlüssel im Schlüsselkasten bzw. Schlüsselschrank eine Position hinter dem Schlüsselaufhänger einnehmen kann.Known key fobs are regularly hung on their end facing away from the key ring on a single hook. This type of suspension entails that the tags and keys form a comparatively long unit, which takes comparatively much space in a key box or key cabinet. To reduce the space requirement, it is recommended to hang the key fob at the end, which also attacks the key ring. In order to enable such a suspension, the key fob according to the invention is provided in the region of its forked end with two lateral, preferably cylindrical projections serving for its suspension between two adjacent hooks. In order finally to achieve a clear view of the information carrier, it is recommended that the forked end of the key fob relative to his information carrier receiving main body slightly bend backwards and in this way to create the condition that the key to be stored in the key box or key cabinet a Position behind the key hanger can take.

Das Fenster ist vorzugsweise im Bereich des seinem gabelförmigen Ende abgewandten Endes durch Rastmittel am Grundkörper arretierbar und der Grundkörper an seinen Längsseiten mit Führungswangen für das Fenster versehen.The window is preferably locked in the region of the end remote from its fork-shaped end by latching means on the base body and the base body provided on its longitudinal sides with guide cheeks for the window.

Da es sich bei Schlüsselanhängern um ausgesprochene Massenartikel handelt, empfiehlt es sich, sowohl den Grundkörper als auch das Fenster als Kunststoffspritzgussteile auszubilden und für ihre Herstellung Materialien zu verwenden, die es ge-statten, die Zinken des gabelförmigen Endes des Grundkörpers und/oder des Fensters federelastisch aufzuweiten.Since key fobs are very mass-produced articles, it is recommended that both the main body and the window be formed as plastic injection molded parts and that materials be used to make them, the tines of the forked end of the body and / or the window expand elastically.

Weitere Einzelheiten und Merkmale der Erfindung werden im Folgenden anhand der beigefügten Zeichnungen einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform erläutert.Further details and features of the invention are explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings of a preferred embodiment.

Wege zur Ausführung der ErfindungWays to carry out the invention

In Fig. 1 ist mit 1 allgemein der Grundkörper eines aus zwei Kunststoffspritzgussteilen bestehenden Schlüsselanhängers bezeichnet. Das Material des Grundkörpers 1 ist vorzugsweise undurchsichtig, also beispielsweise schwarz. Das obere, leicht nach hinten gebogene bzw. abgewinkelte Ende des Grundkörpers 1 ist nach Art einer zwei Zinken 2 und 3 aufweisenden Gabel ausgebildet. Die Zinken 2 und 3 gehen in Führungswangen 4 und 5 zur seitlichen Führung eines in Figur 2 dargestellten Fensters 6 über. Zwischen den Führungswangen 4 und 5 und einem oberen Quersteg 7 sowie einem unteren Quersteg 8 befindet sich eine flache Tasche 9 zur Aufnahme eines regelmäßig von einem Kartonstreifen gebildeten, nicht dargestellten Informationsträgers zur Identifikation des jeweiligen Schlüssels.In Fig. 1, 1 generally designates the main body of an existing of two plastic injection molded key fob. The material of the base body 1 is preferably opaque, so for example black. The upper, slightly bent backwards or angled end of the base body 1 is formed in the manner of a two prongs 2 and 3 having fork. The tines 2 and 3 go in guide cheeks 4 and 5 for the lateral guidance of a window 6 shown in Figure 2. Between the guide cheeks 4 and 5 and an upper cross bar 7 and a lower cross bar 8 is a flat pocket 9 for receiving a regularly formed by a cardboard strip, not shown information carrier for identifying the respective key.

Das Fenster 6 weist an seinem oberen ebenfalls leicht nach hinten gebogenen Ende wie der Grundkörper 1 zwei eine Gabel bildende Zinken 10 und 11 auf, die mit fluchtenden Bohrungen 12 und 13 versehen sind.The window 6 has at its upper end also slightly bent backwards like the main body 1, two fork-forming tines 10 and 11, which are provided with aligned holes 12 and 13.

Die Bohrungen 12 und 13 des Fensters 6 dienen zur Aufnahme eines Haltebolzens 14, der über ein nach Art eines Filmscharnieres ausgebildetes Gelenk 15 mit einem von zwei an den Innenflanken der Zinken 2 und 3 des Grundkörpers 1 vorgesehenen Schwenkzapfen 16 und 17 verbunden ist. Die Länge des Haltebolzens 14 ist ausreichend groß, um den Spalt 18 zwischen den Zinken 10 und 11 zu überbrücken, aber kleiner als die Breite des Fensters 6, so dass die Schwenkzapfen 16 und 17 ebenfalls Platz in den Bohrungen 12 und 13 des Fensters 6 finden.The bores 12 and 13 of the window 6 serve to receive a retaining bolt 14, which is connected via a formed in the manner of a film hinge joint 15 with one of two provided on the inner edges of the tines 2 and 3 of the base body 1 pivot pin 16 and 17. The length of the retaining bolt 14 is sufficiently large to bridge the gap 18 between the tines 10 and 11, but smaller than the width of the window 6, so that the pivot pins 16 and 17 also find space in the holes 12 and 13 of the window 6 ,

An den den Schwenkzapfen 16, 17 gegenüberliegenden Seiten der Zinken 2 und 3 des Grundkörpers 1 sind zwei zylindrische Vorsprünge 19, 20 angeordnet, die zum Aufhängen des Schlüsselanhängers zwischen einem Paar nicht dargestellter, benachbarter Haken einer Schlüsselleiste genutzt werden können.At the pivot pins 16, 17 opposite sides of the tines 2 and 3 of the base body 1, two cylindrical projections 19, 20 are arranged, which can be used to hang the key fob between a pair, not shown, adjacent hook a key bar.

Wie in Figur 3 gezeigt, kann bei vom Grundkörper 1 getrenntem Fenster selbst ein geschlossener Schlüsselring 21 in den Spalt 18 eingeführt und anschließend durch den Haltebolzen 14 gesichert werden. Aufgrund der Elastizität des für die Herstellung des Grundkörpers 1 und des Fensters verwendeten Materials lässt sich das obere Ende des Fensters 6 problemlos in die vom oberen Ende des Grundkörpers 1 gebildete Gabel einschwenken, um anschließend die in Figur 4 dargestellte Position einzunehmen, in der es durch an den Führungswangen 4 und 5 angebrachte Rastnocken 22 und 23 arretierbar ist, die an den sich gegenüberliegenden Längsseiten des Fensters 6 angeordnete schmale Rippen 24, 25 übergreifen.As shown in FIG. 3, when the window is separated from the main body 1, a closed key ring 21 can be inserted into the gap 18 and then secured by the retaining bolt 14. Due to the elasticity of the material used for the production of the base body 1 and the window, the upper end of the window 6 can be easily pivoted into the fork formed by the upper end of the base body 1, to subsequently assume the position shown in Figure 4, in which it attached to the guide cheeks 4 and 5 locking cams 22 and 23 can be locked, which engage over the opposite longitudinal sides of the window 6 arranged narrow ribs 24, 25.
