Definitions

  • the invention relates to a blank for an individualizable key.
  • the invention also relates to an individualized key comprising a blank key individualizable according to the invention.
  • Key blanks are generally used to make reproductions of existing keys. Key blanks in nickel-plated steel, brass nickel-plated or not and made of nickel silver generally have a head conformation similar to the conformation of the original key head. These keys can possibly be marked by stamping in the name of the breeder, at the time of the manufacture of the blank. Individualization or identification of the key reproduced is only possible with a label holder or a key holder attached to the key.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy the drawbacks of the technique known, by providing a new blank of individualizable key offering the possibility of being identified, personalized, decorated, in color or not, on occasion key duplication operations.
  • the subject of the invention is a blank for an individualizable key, comprising a key head, characterized in that the head has at least one through passage intended to allow the assembly of means protection means individualization on either side of the key head through the said (s) through passage (s).
  • the subject of the invention is also an individualized key comprising a blank key individualizable according to the invention.
  • a key blank according to the invention comprises a head 1 and an elongated part 2 machined during the reproduction of the key to comply with the original key.
  • the head 1 has an eyelet 3 to allow the key to be mounted on a clothing.
  • the head 1 has a cavity 4 and two orifices 5 and 6 through.
  • the head 1 has an identical cavity 4 on each face.
  • Each cavity 4 is intended to receive an insert described in FIG. 3 with possible interposition of a label described in Figure 2.
  • the label 7 is preferably made from a sheet of material by cutting, before or after printing of information intended to individualize a key blank after reproduction.
  • an insert 10 preferably made of plastic transparent or translucent, colored or not, has a peripheral contour corresponding to an insertion with play in the cavity 4.
  • the insert 10 is preferably produced by molding and has a male stud 11 and a female nipple 12 capable of being snapped into each other so permanent by applying assembly pressure P.
  • each orifice 5 or 6 is preferably chosen slightly greater than the outside diameter of a female nipple 12.
  • each insert 10 a male stud and a female stud allows the same type of insert to be used on both sides of the key head 1 when assembly and decreases the number of references required, thereby improving the inventory management.
  • the invention thus makes it possible to avoid the use of a label holder or a key ring attached to the eyecup 3, due to the fact that the captive label 7 remains visible through the insert 10 which covers it.
  • provision may be made for directly mark the inside of an insert 10 with an indication or information corresponding individualization, thus avoiding the use of labels 7.
  • the insert 10 has in the vicinity of the label a lenticular shape providing a magnifying glass effect and thus enlarging the text or decoration on the labels 7.
  • the magnifying glass effect can also be obtained by a variation of material and optical transmission indices, without departing from the scope of the present invention.
  • an individualized key thanks to the invention comprises two inserts 10 and two labels 7 assembled to each other on either side of the cavities 4.
  • the protection of the labels 7 by the inserts 10 prevents wear by friction during the use of the key and during the transport of the keys in contact with other keys of a keychain.
  • the replacement of inserts 10 can be easily carried out by drilling the two assemblies of pins 11 and 12 snapped together through the orifices 5 and 6.
  • the replacement of the inserts allows, while keeping the original label, to change the external appearance or decoration of the key head, even after reproduction of the serration of the original key.
  • the cavities 4 are not essential on each face of the head 1 of key: one can provide a cavity on one side of the head 1 of the key, or even avoid stamping of the cavities during the production of the blanks.
  • This last variant has the disadvantage of not protecting the contour of the inserts 10 against accidental snagging and lifting.
