Definitions

  • the present invention relates to keys and to key blanks for cylinder locks of the type comprising:
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a key (and likewise a key blank) of the type referred to above that will be simple and fast to produce and assemble, will be functional in use, and will guarantee a high degree of safety also as regards duplication of the key.
  • the subject of the invention is a key or key blank having all the characteristics that have been referred to at the start and further characterized in that the aforesaid spring means push the aforesaid first and second engagement members via a third control member, which is movable within said body in a longitudinal direction of said body and is pushed by said spring means towards a position in which it sets itself between said first and second engagement members in such a way as to keep them in positions where they project.
  • the aforesaid control member is mounted within an axial cavity of the aforesaid body formed starting from an end surface of the body opposite to the head of the key or of the key blank.
  • the aforesaid spring means are constituted by a helical spring provided within the aforesaid axial cavity, between the bottom of the cavity and the aforesaid control member.
  • the aforesaid first and second engagement members and the aforesaid control member are balls, even though there is not ruled out the possibility of said members having a different conformation.
  • the aforesaid engagement members and the control member are balls of identical diameter.
  • the body of the key or of the key blank is provided for defining arrest surfaces for the aforesaid first and second engagement members towards positions where they project.
  • the hole in which one of the two engagement members is movable gives out onto the respective main face with a conical portion, which defines the arrest surface for the aforesaid engagement member, whilst the rim of the other hole is permanently deformed (the material of the key is metal) for defining the arrest surface of the other engagement member.
  • the key of the invention guarantees an operation that is more efficient and reliable as compared to known solutions.
  • the two engagement members are independent of one another, but notwithstanding this they are forced by the control member always to present a symmetrical movement, which prevents any of said members from displacing between the retracted position and the projecting position, unless the other member can perform a corresponding movement.
  • a duplication of the key can be obtained only starting from a key blank that is provided with the aforesaid elements, which guarantees the possibility of setting up a system for control of duplications through the provision of authorized centres that are provided with said key blanks.
  • the reference number 1 designates as a whole a preferred embodiment of a key according to the invention.
  • the key 1 has a head 2 and an elongated and flattened body 3 connected at one end to the head 2 and having two opposite main faces 31, 32 configured for co-operating with elements of a cylinder lock 4.
  • the body 3 has two longitudinal sides 33, 34 and an end surface 35.
  • both the main faces 31, 32 and the sides 33, 34 are provided with cavities and/or grooves designed to co-operate, in a way in itself known, with corresponding elements of the cylinder lock.
  • a detailed description of an example of embodiment of a cylinder lock and a key designed to co-operate with the above lock is described, for example, in the document No. EP 1 019 601 B1 , filed in the name of the present applicant.
  • the lock 4 is of the type comprising a body including a pair of stators 41, 42, rotatably mounted within which are respective rotors 50, designed to be driven on the opposite sides of a door on which the lock is mounted.
  • the above example does not have any limiting value since the key of the invention could be used with any type of cylinder lock, with single or double cylinder.
  • the body 4 includes an intermediate bridge portion 43 provided with a threaded hole 44 for engagement of a screw (not illustrated) designed to fix the body of the lock within the structure of the door.
  • the drawings do not show the pawl (or cogwheel cam) for governing the lock of the door that is fixed in rotation with respect to the rotors 50 and is provided in the space 45 that separates the two rotors 41, 42 axially from one another.
  • each rotor 50 has a passage 51 for introduction of the key 1. Facing the passage 51 is a pin 60 designed to co-operate with the key, which is slidably mounted in a hole 61 of the rotor 50 and cooperates with a counterpin 62 slidably mounted in a hole 63 of the body 42 of the stator.
  • the hole 63 is closed at its bottom end by a plug 64 and contains inside it a helical spring 65 that is set between the plug 64 and the counterpin 62 so as to push the pin 60, via the counterpin 62 (in the neutral position of the rotor 50 that is represented in the drawings) towards an end-of-travel position, in which a head 60a of the pin 60 comes to bear upon a shoulder defined by an end portion of widened diameter of the hole 61.
  • the key according to the invention comprises a first engagement member 301 and a second engagement member 302, each of which is designed to co-operate with the pin 60 carried by the rotor 50, according to the direction of introduction of the key.
  • the two engagement members 301, 302 are pushed towards a position where they project from the two main faces 31, 32 by spring means, which in the example illustrated are constituted by a helical spring 303.
  • the helical spring 303 pushes the two engagement members 301, 302 by means of a third control member 304.
  • the spring 303 pushes the control member 304 towards a position in which the control member 304 sets itself between the first and second engagement members 301, 302, in such a way as to maintain the latter in positions where they project.
  • the control member 304 is movable in the longitudinal direction of the body 3 of the key within an axial cavity 305 obtained starting from the end surface 35 of the key.
  • the helical spring 303 is set between the bottom of the axial cavity 305 and the third control member 304 so as to push the control member 304 in the longitudinal direction, towards the end 35 of the key, so as to wedge between the two engagement members 301, 302 and push them into positions where they project.
  • the two engagement members 301, 302 are movable within two holes 306, 307 obtained in the main faces 31, 32 of the body of the key, orthogonal to said main faces and giving out onto the aforementioned axial cavity 305.
  • the two holes 306, 307 are obtained by means of a single operation of perforation with a bit with tapered tip, which bestows a corresponding conical conformation on the rim of the hole 307 that gives out onto the main face 32.
  • the above conical rim constitutes a surface for arresting movement of the engagement member 302 towards its position where it projects from the main face 32.
  • the rim of the hole 306 facing the main face 31 is deformed permanently (thanks to the malleability of the metal material constituting the body of the key) so as to obtain also on the aforesaid side a contrast surface for the movement of the engagement member 301 towards its projecting position.
  • Figures 2-4 show the lock 4 and the key 1 in the condition in which they are before the key is introduced into the lock.
  • the engagement members 301, 302 occupy the position in which they project from the main faces 31, 32, as a result of the thrust exerted by the helical spring 303 via the control member 304.
  • the pin 60 is held by the spring 65, via the counterpin 62, in its end-of-travel position ( Figure 3 ) in which the counterpin 62 extends partially within the mouth with widened diameter of the hole 61 so as to prevent any rotation of the rotor 50.
  • Figure 3 end-of-travel position
  • the counterpin 62 extends partially within the mouth with widened diameter of the hole 61 so as to prevent any rotation of the rotor 50.
  • rotation of the rotor 50 is prevented also by all the further control elements with which the lock is provided and which, as has been mentioned above, are not described and illustrated in detail herein.
  • the key of the invention guarantees a more efficient and reliable operation as compared to known solutions.
  • the two engagement members are independent of one another, but notwithstanding this are forced by the control member to present always a symmetrical movement, which prevents any of said members from displacing between the retracted position and the projecting position, unless the other member can perform a corresponding movement.
  • the invention is also aimed at a key blank having the characteristics defined in claim 1 and described above.
  • an example of embodiment of the key blank can be understood as the key illustrated in Figure 1 , with the cavity 305 and the holes 306, 307, the two engagement members 301, 302, the control member 304, and the spring 303, but without all the surfaces, grooves, and cavities that transform the blank into a key suited to operating on a given lock.
  • the engagement members 301, 302 and/or the control member 304 could have a conformation different from the spherical conformation illustrated above.
  • the engagement members 301, 302 could have a cylindrical conformation with spherical ends, and the same applies to the control member 304.
  • the members 301, 302 could have a prismatic conformation and be guided in the respective holes 306, 307 so that they cannot turn about respective axes.
  • the control member 304 could have any conformation, with a wedge-shaped end co-operating with inclined plane surfaces of the engagement members 301, 302.
  • the member 304 could be constituted by a ball of a diameter different from that of the balls 301, 302, unlike the example illustrated, in which the three balls 301, 302, 304 have an identical diameter.
  • a closing plug Inside the axial cavity 305 of the key there may be provided a closing plug.
  • the cavity 305 might not give out onto the end surface of the key and may be obtained, instead, starting from a side of the key.
  • the spring 303 is not set between the member 304 and the bottom of the cavity 305, but rather is located on the opposite side of the member 304, for example between the latter and a plug inserted into the end of the cavity 305, in the case where the cavity gives out onto the end 35 of the key.
  • the spring 303 could be set indifferently on one side or on the other of the member 304, between the latter and a corresponding end of the cavity.
  • the key according to the invention is characterized in that the spring means 303 push the engagement members 301, 302 via the third control member 304 that moves along the longitudinal axis of the key.
  • the invention must be considered both with reference to a key already formed with its surfaces, cavities, and/or grooves for co-operating with the control elements of a specific lock, and with reference to a simple key blank.
