Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a vehicle key, in particular a hands-free vehicle key or badge, comprising an emergency key and the corresponding emergency key.
  • Hands-free vehicle keys are generally electronic keys comprising electronic means for identifying a user of a vehicle and the vehicle comprises activation means for unlocking a vehicle door and/or turning on a vehicle power when the user is identified.
  • Such hands-free keys require a battery which implies a decreasing energy.
  • the hand-free key comprises an emergency key so that a user may open the vehicle door and turn on the vehicle power in case of loss of energy in the battery of the electronic key.
  • the emergency key when using the emergency key to open the door or to turn on the vehicle power, the emergency key needs to resist to torsion efforts.
  • the emergency key is a secondary part of the hands-free key, there is thus a need for an emergency key with low manufacturing costs.
  • An emergency key comprising a head and an insert.
  • the head comprises a head connector and the insert comprises an insert connector.
  • the insert connector is configured to be housed in the head connector in order to attach the insert to the head.
  • the head connector is pierced so as to receive the insert connector.
  • the insert connector and the head connector are pierced so as to have aligned through-holes.
  • a separate robust pin is then inserted in the through-holes of the head connector and of the insert connector and is sealed by means of an external sealing material so as to attach the head to the insert.
  • the emergency key of the prior art such as WO2010133556 has the disadvantage of requiring a complicate machining and assembling of the emergency key. Indeed, it is required that the pierced through-hole of the head connector coincide with the through-hole of the insert connector such that the external pin may be inserted therein. Furthermore, an operator may lose the pin during the assembling of the emergency key.
  • the emergency key of the prior art has the disadvantage of requiring much external material, including the robust external pin and an external sealing material. An operator needs to handle those external materials which implies a loss of time. These pin and sealing material increase the manufacturing costs of the emergency key.
  • an emergency key comprising a head and an insert
  • the head comprises a head connector and the insert comprises an insert connector
  • the insert having a longitudinal axis
  • the head connector and the insert connector are configured to interlock with each other by shape cooperation
  • the insert connector comprises at least one insert protuberance projecting from the longitudinal axis
  • the head connector comprises at least one recess receiving said protuberance when the insert connector and the head connector interlock with each other.
  • the emergency key of the invention has a good resistance to torsion efforts due to the shape cooperation between the insert connector and the head connector as well as the cooperation between the projecting insert protuberance and the recess of the head connector.
  • emergency key requires less external material and enables a simpler machining of the head and of the insert.
  • emergency key of the invention does not require pierced through-holes on the head connector and on the insert connector aligned to receive an external robust pin.
  • the head connector comprises at least one head protuberance
  • the insert connector comprises at least one through-hole receiving said head protuberance when the insert connector and the head connector interlock with each other.
  • the head connector is in two parts and the insert connector is sandwiched between the two parts.
  • the method according to an embodiment of the invention is simplified as there is no need to handle an external robust pin and an external sealing material. Furthermore, losing the pin during the assembling is avoided.
  • the invention further relates to an electronic key comprising electronic means for identifying a user of a vehicle, and the vehicle comprises activation means for unlocking a vehicle door and/or turning on a vehicle power when the user is identified, wherein the electronic key comprises an emergency key according to any of the preceding claims, and the emergency key is configured to unlock the vehicle door and/or turn on the vehicle power.
  • the emergency key comprises a head 1 and an insert 2.
  • the head 1 is configured to cooperate with edges of an electronic key such as a badge, in order to secure the emergency key in the electronic key.
  • the head 1 comprises a head connector 10 configured to cooperate with the insert 2 to interlock the insert 2 with the head 1 by shape cooperation.
  • a shape cooperation brings a good cohesion and fastening of the head connector 10 and the insert 2.
  • the insert 2 comprises a longitudinal body shaft 26 with one or more groove and/or notches (not represented) having a specific coding for actuating a lock cylinder of a vehicle, including notably a vehicle opening and/or a vehicle starter and/or a glove box.
  • the body shaft 26 of the insert 2 extends along a longitudinal axis A 1 .
  • the body shaft 26 of the insert 2 preferably has a substantially parallelepiped form with two opposite faces 21 and two opposite edges 22.
  • the insert 2 further comprises an insert connector 20 configured to cooperate with the head connector 10, to interlock the insert connector 20 with the head connector 10 by shape cooperation.
  • the insert connector 20 comprises a connector shaft 27 in the extension of the body shaft 26. The limit between the connector shaft 27 and the body shaft 26 is the junction between the insert connector 20 and the head connector 10 when they interlock with each other.
  • the insert connector 20 comprises at least one insert protuberance 25 projecting perpendicularly from the connector shaft 27 of the insert 2.
  • the insert protuberance 25 projects perpendicularly from the axis A 1 .
  • the head connector 10 comprises at least one recess 15 receiving the insert protuberance 25 when the insert connector 20 is interlocked with the head connector 10.
  • the recess 15 and the insert protuberance 25 cooperate to produce a good resistance to torsion efforts to the emergency key, with reference to axis A 1 .
  • the resistance is further improved when the protuberance 25 projects perpendicularly from the longitudinal axis A 1 .
  • the insert connector 20 further comprises a connector end 28 and a body end 29 along the longitudinal axis A 1 .
  • the connector end 28 is an extremity of the connector shaft 27 opposite to the body shaft 26.
  • the body end 29 is the other extremity of the connector shaft 27.
  • the body end 29 is a continuation of the body shaft 26.
  • the insert connector 20 extends between the connector end 28 and the body end 29.
  • the protuberance 25 is placed at the connector end 28 of the insert connector 20.
  • the protuberance 25 may also be placed along the connector shaft 27 of the insert connector 20. More particularly, the protuberance 25 may in the middle of connector shaft 27 or at the body end 29.
  • the protuberance 25 extends along a minor portion of the length of the connector shaft 27 of the insert connector 20 according to the longitudinal axis A 1 .
  • the protuberance 25 may also extend along a major portion of the connector shaft 27 of the insert connector 20.
  • the head connector 10 comprises at least one head protuberance, and preferably two head protuberances 13, 14.
  • the protuberances 12, 13 extend along parallel transversal axes A 2 , A 3 .
