Definitions
- the present invention relates to a key ring made of plastic according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the invention further comprises a key strip made of plastic with a plurality of hooks for receiving the key fob according to the invention.
- a key fob made of two welded plates is also known on the market, in which one is designed as a window and the other as a closed rear wall.
- a slot at the lower end is used to insert the label.
- an S-shaped, metallic tab must first be threaded out and then just as laboriously threaded. Even attaching the key to the metal tab is by no means user-friendly.
- the S-shaped metal tab has to be bent open in order to be able to insert the key at all.
- Key rings have also been developed, which are designed to be specially adapted as key strips.
- the two US Pat. Nos. 4,072,033 and 4,137,740 show key fobs which no longer have a through opening for hanging on a hook.
- the label holder parts are provided on one side with a Velcro strip, which can be directly connected to a key strip, which is also provided with a Velcro strip.
- the key holder tabs are designed in the form of metal rings.
- Another one another solution shows the EP-PS-0'149'102, in which a very complicated and expensive key strip is used, in which a key fob can be inserted from below, the key fob having a label receiving part with a push button-like spring that has an opening can be snapped into the key bar.
- the key fob has a ring part at its lower end, to which a key can be attached by means of a key ring.
- the design of the tab and its connection to the key fob is not apparent from this document.
- the first-mentioned task is accomplished by a key fob with the features of claim 1.
- the second-mentioned task is accomplished by a key strip made of plastic with several hooks for receiving the key fob according to the invention with the features of claim 11. Further advantageous Embodiments of the key fob or the key strip are evident from the dependent claims.
- the key fob according to the invention has a label receiving part 1, which consists of two plates 6 and 7 connected to one another via a film hinge 9.
- the two plates are designed such that they form a rectangular part 10 and a triangular part 11 placed on one longitudinal edge.
- the film hinge 9 connecting the two plates 6 and 7 runs on the second, common longitudinal edge of the respective rectangular part 10.
- the inner surfaces of the two plates 6 and 7 are visible in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the upper plate 6 in these two figures has as a single opening the through opening 2, which is used to hang the key fob on a key board or key strip.
- the lower plate 7 in these figures has three openings. This is the top-most recognizable window 8, which gives a view of the insertable and exchangeable labeling plate 5.
- This window 8 is almost approximately the same size as the rectangular part 10 of the plate 7. Centered underneath and approximately centrally in the triangular part 11 of the plate 7 is again the through opening 2, which, as already described, for hanging the key fob on a key strip or a key plate serves. There is a round through hole just vertically below it near the tip of the triangular part 11 3 ′. In the extension of the tip of the triangular part 11 of the lower plate 7, an open tab 3 is molded, which has a hook 12 at the bottom. The tab 3 is perpendicular to its direction with two relatively closely located film hinges 12 '.
- the key fob To use the key fob according to the invention, first place the label 5 provided with a label over the window 8 in the plate 7 into the opened label receiving part 1. Then a key 4 to be hung is threaded onto the open tab 3. Then you swivel the lower end of the tab 3 with its hook 12 by 180 ° upwards. The key 4 now comes to lie exactly between the two film hinges 12 'of the tab 3.
- the through hole 2 in the lower plate 7 is provided with a circumferential wall 16 which projects vertically upward to the plane of the plate and which is provided at the top with a positive locking brow 17 (FIG. 4).
- the hook 12 of the tab 3 fits precisely around this vertical, circumferential wall 16.
- the form-fitting brow 17 causes the hook 12 of the tab 3 to remain in this position when its lower part has been swiveled through 180 ° (see FIG. 2). .
- said vertical circumferential wall 16 penetrates through opening 2 in upper plate 6.
- positive-locking brow 17 on wall 16 already leads to an inherently positive connection between the two plates 6 and forming a foldable frame 7 of the label holder part 1.
- further positive locking means are provided. These are formed by ribs 14 with corresponding brow and not shown 15 in the lower plate 7.
- These grooves 15 are formed in that the wall thickness of the lower plate 7 is partially reinforced. The thickness of the platelet is reduced where the grooves 15 and in the area where the folded-down lower part of the tab with the hook 12 comes to rest. This results in an almost all-round positive connection between the two plates 6 and 7, which are hinged to one another.
- the tab 3 In addition to the variant shown here of holding the open tab 3 between the two plates 6 and 7 which can be pivoted relative to one another, it would also be possible to form the tab 3 merely as a straight ribbon, which is provided at its lower end with a toothing which is in a counter toothing would find on at least one inner surface of the two collapsible plates 6,7. This variant is not shown in the drawing.
- the key strip 20 consists of a rail 21, in which a groove 22 is inserted over its entire length, which is used to hold a labeling strip. Below the groove 22 hooks 23 are integrally formed with the bar. These have a vertically projecting strut 24, the length of which is slightly longer than the thickness of the label frame part 1.
- the vertically upward protruding nose 25 at the end of the strut 24 corresponds in its dimension almost exactly to the through opening for hanging the key fob.
- the key fob and the key strip 20 are designed so that when the key fob is in the open state, the label 5 lies exactly above the label in the groove 22. This enables a simple and eye-catching presence check of all stored keys.

Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Schlüsselanhänger aus Kunststoff gemäss Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1. Die Erfindung umfasst weiter, eine Schlüsselleiste aus Kunststoff mit mehreren Haken zur Aufnahme des erfindungsgemässen Schlüsselanhängers.The present invention relates to a key ring made of plastic according to the preamble of
Es sind Schlüsselanhänger der eingangs genannten Art aus der US-A-4'771'897 bekannt, bei denen der Beschriftungsschildaufnahmeteil aus zwei miteinander verbindbaren Plättchen besteht, wobei das zur Sichtseite weisende Plättchen ein transparentes Fenster ist. In der hängenden Benützungslage ist oberhalb des Fensters eine Durchgangsöffnung, die zur Aufhängung des Schlüsselanhängers dient, vorgesehen. Unterhalb des Fensters ist eine zweite Durchgangsöffnung angebracht, durch den eine ring-förmige, metallene Lasche hindurchgreift.Key rings of the type mentioned at the outset are known from US Pat. No. 4,771,897, in which the label holder part consists of two interconnectable plates, the plate facing the visible side being a transparent window. In the hanging position of use, a passage opening is provided above the window, which is used to hang the key fob. Below the window is a second through opening through which a ring-shaped, reaches through the metal tab.
Auf dem Markt ist desweiteren ein Schlüsselanhänger aus zwei verschweißten Plättchen bekannt, bei dem das eine als Fenster und das andere als geschlossene Rückwand gestaltet ist.A key fob made of two welded plates is also known on the market, in which one is designed as a window and the other as a closed rear wall.
Zur Einführung des Beschriftungsschildchens dient ein am unteren Ende angebrachter Schlitz. Um jedoch das Beschriftungsschildchen einführen zu können, muss erst eine S-förmig gestaltete, metallene Lasche kompliziert ausgefädelt werden und danach ebenso umständlich eingefädelt werden. Auch das Anbringen des Schlüssels an die metallene Lasche ist keineswegs bedienungsfreundlich. Hierzu muss die S-förmige metallene Lasche aufgebogen werden, um den Schlüssel überhaupt einführen zu können.A slot at the lower end is used to insert the label. However, in order to be able to insert the label, an S-shaped, metallic tab must first be threaded out and then just as laboriously threaded. Even attaching the key to the metal tab is by no means user-friendly. For this purpose, the S-shaped metal tab has to be bent open in order to be able to insert the key at all.
Hinzu kommt, dass solche Schlüsselanhänger in der Benützungslage in vertikaler Richtung äusserst viel Platz benützen. In einem Schlüsselkasten, in dem mehrere Schlüsselleisten vertikal übereinander angeordnet sind, müssen folglich die Schlüsselleisten in grossem Abstand angebracht werden.In addition, such key rings use a lot of space in the vertical position when in use. In a key box, in which several key strips are arranged vertically one above the other, the key strips must therefore be attached at a large distance.
Es wurden auch Schlüsselanhänger entwickelt, die für nur speziell darauf als angepasste Schlüsselleisten konzipiert sind. So zeigen die beiden US-PS-4'072'033 und US-PS-4'137'740 Schlüsselanhänger, die keine Durchgangsöffnung zur Aufhängung an einem Haken mehr aufweisen. Hier sind die Beschriftungsschildaufnahmeteile einseitig mit einem Klettband versehen, welches mit einer Schlüsselleiste, welche ebenfalls mit einem Klettband versehen ist, direkt verbindbar. Die Schlüsselaufnahmelaschen sind hier in Form von Metallringen gestaltet. Eine nochmals andere Lösung zeigt die EP-PS-0′149′102, bei der eine sehr komplizierte und teuere Schlüsselleiste Verwendung findet, in der von unten einen Schlüsselanhänger eingeschoben werden kann, wobei der Schlüsselanhänger einem Beschriftungsschildaufnahmeteil mit einer druckknopfartigen Feder aufweist, die mit einer Oeffnung in der Schlüsselleiste zum Einrasten gebracht werden kann. Hierin wird beschrieben, dass der Schlüsselanhänger an seinem unteren Ende einen Ringteil aufweist, an dem ein Schlüssel mittels eines Schlüsselringes befestigbar ist. Die Gestaltung der Lasche und deren Verbindung mit dem Schlüsselanhänger ist aus diesem Dokument nicht ersichtlich.Key rings have also been developed, which are designed to be specially adapted as key strips. For example, the two US Pat. Nos. 4,072,033 and 4,137,740 show key fobs which no longer have a through opening for hanging on a hook. Here, the label holder parts are provided on one side with a Velcro strip, which can be directly connected to a key strip, which is also provided with a Velcro strip. The key holder tabs are designed in the form of metal rings. Another one another solution shows the EP-PS-0'149'102, in which a very complicated and expensive key strip is used, in which a key fob can be inserted from below, the key fob having a label receiving part with a push button-like spring that has an opening can be snapped into the key bar. This describes that the key fob has a ring part at its lower end, to which a key can be attached by means of a key ring. The design of the tab and its connection to the key fob is not apparent from this document.
Es ist die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung einen Schlüsselanhänger der eingangs erwähnten Art zu schaffen, der besonders benützerfreundlich ist, preiswert herstellbar und platzsparend mit einer entsprechend angepassten Schlüsselleiste verwendet werden kann. Es ist weiter die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung eine Schlüsselleiste anzubieten, die auf den erfindungsgemässen Schlüsselanhänger angepasst ist. Die erstgenannte Aufgabe erfüllt ein Schlüsselanhänger mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruches 1. Die zweitgerannte Aufgabe löst eine Schlüsselleiste aus Kunststoff mit mehreren Haken zur Aufnahme der erfindungsgemässen Schlüsselanhänger mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruches 11. Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungsformen des Schlüsselanhängers, beziehungsweise der Schlüsselleiste gehen aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen hervor.It is the object of the present invention to provide a key fob of the type mentioned at the outset, which is particularly user-friendly, inexpensive to produce and can be used in a space-saving manner with an appropriately adapted key bar. It is a further object of the present invention to offer a key bar which is adapted to the key ring according to the invention. The first-mentioned task is accomplished by a key fob with the features of

Der erfindungsgemässe Schlüsselanhänger hat einen Beschriftungsschildaufnahmeteil 1, der aus zwei über ein Filmscharnier 9 miteinander verbundenen Plättchen 6 und 7 besteht. Die beiden Plättchen sind so gestaltet, dass sie einen rechteckigen Teil 10 und einen auf der einen Längskante aufgesetzten dreieckigen Teil 11 bilden. Das die beiden Plättchen 6 und 7 verbindende Filmscharnier 9 verläuft an der zweiten, gemeinsamen Längskante des jeweiligen rechteckigen Teiles 10. In den Figuren 1 und 2 sind die Innenflächen der beiden Plättchen 6 und 7 sichtbar. Das in diesen beiden Figuren obere Plätchen 6 hat als einzigen Durchbruch die Durchgangsöffnung 2, die zur Aufhängung des Schlüsselanhängers an einem Schlüsselbrett oder Schlüsselleiste dient Das in diesen Figuren untere Plättchen 7 weist jedoch drei Oeffnungen auf. Es ist dies das zuoberst erkennbare Fenster 8, welches den Blick auf das einzulegende und auswechselbare Beschriftungsplättchen 5 freigibt. Dieses Fenster 8 ist fast annähernd gleich der Grösse des rechteckigen Teiles 10 des Plättchens 7. Mittig hierunter und etwa zentrisch im dreieckigen Teil 11 des Plättchen 7 ist wiederum die Durchgangsöffnung 2, die wie bereits beschrieben, zur Aufhängung des Schlüsselanhängers an einer Schlüsselleiste oder einem Schlüsselbrettchen dient. Genau senkrecht darunter in der Nähe der Spitze des dreieckigen Teiles 11 befindet sich eine rundes Durchgangsloch 3′. In der Verlängerung der Spitze des dreieckigen Teiles 11 des unteren Plättchens 7 ist eine offene Lasche 3 angespritzt, die zuunterst einen Haken 12 aufweist. Die Lasche 3 ist senkrecht zu seiner Verlaufsrichtung mit zwei relativ nahe beieinander liegenden Filmscharniere 12′ versehen.The key fob according to the invention has a
Zur Benutzung des erfindungsgemässen Schlüsselanhängers legt man zuerst, das mit einer Kennzeichnung versehene Beschriftungsschild 5 über das Fenster 8 im Plättchen 7 in das aufgeklappte Beschriftungsschildaufnahmeteil 1. Danach fädelt man einen aufzuhängenden Schlüssel 4 auf die offene Lasche 3 auf. Danach schwenkt man das untere Ende der Lasche 3 mit seinem Haken 12 um 180° nach oben. Der Schlüssel 4 kommt nun genau zwischen den beiden Filmscharnieren 12' der Lasche 3 zu liegen. Das Durchgangsloch 2 im unteren Plättchen 7 ist mit einer umlaufenden, vertikal zur Plättchenebene nach oben vorstehenden Wand 16 versehen, welche zuoberst mit einer Formschlussbraue 17 (Figur 4) versehen ist. Der Haken 12 der Lasche 3 passt exakt formschlüssig, um diese vertikale, umlaufende Wand 16. Die Formschlussbraue 17 bewirkt, dass der Haken 12 der Lasche 3, wenn dessen unterer Teil um 180° umgeschwenkt ist, in dieser Lage verbleibt (siehe Figur 2). Nun schwenkt man das obere Plättchen 6 um das genannte Filmscharnier 9 um 180° auf das untere Plättchen 7, so dass die Innenflächen beider Plättchen 6 und 7 aufeinander zu liegen kommen. Dabei durchstösst die genannte vertikale, umlaufende Wand 16 die Durchgangsöffnung 2 im oberen Plättchen 6. Die bereits genannte Formschlussbraue 17 an der Wand 16, führt nun bereits zu einer an und für sich genügende formschlüssige Verbindung zwischen den beiden, einen klappbaren Rahmen bildenden Plättchen 6 und 7 des Beschriftungsschildaufnahmeteiles 1. Im hier dargestellten Beispiel sind jedoch noch weitere Formschlussmittel vorgesehen. Diese werden gebildet durch Rippen 14 mit nicht dargestellten entsprechenden Brauen und Nuten 15 im unteren Plättchen 7. Diese Nuten 15 werden dadurch gebildet, dass die Wandstärke des unteren Plättchens 7 teilweise verstärkt ist. Die Plättchendicke ist dort, wo die Nuten 15, sowie im Bereich, wo der umgeklappte untere Teil der Lasche mit dem Haken 12 zu liegen kommt, vermindert ist. Somit ergibt sich eine beinahe umlaufende formschlüssige Verbindung zwischen den beiden zueinander scharnierenden Plättchen 6 und 7.To use the key fob according to the invention, first place the
Wünscht man den Schlüsselanhänger zusammen mit einem Schlüsselring mit mehreren Schlüssel zu verwenden, so lässt sich die Lasche 3 einfach abschneiden, wodurch diese im geschlossenen Zustand des Beschriftungsschildaufnahmeteiles 1 nicht mehr vor das Loch 3′ zu liegen kommt und somit dieses zur Aufnahme eines Schlüsselringes dienen kann. Das Loch 3′ fluchtet im geschlossenen Zustand des Aufnahmeteiles 1 mit einer U-förmigen Ausnehmung 18 an der Spitze des rücwärtigen Plättchens 6. Diese Ausnehmung 18 hat jedoch auch einer Zweck, wenn der Schlüsselanhänger mit der entsprechenden Lasche 3 verwendet wird. Verdreht man nämlich den befestigten Schlüssel 4 relativ zum Aufnahmeteil 1, so wird die Lasche 3 verdreht. Entsprechend bestünde die Gefahr, dass die zusammengeklappten und formschlüssig miteinander verbundenen Plättchen 6 und 7 um die Breite der Lasche 3 auseinander gezwängt werden würden. Durch die U-förmige Ausnehmung 18 wird dies vermieden.If you want to use the key fob together with a key ring with several keys, you can simply cut off the
Neben der hier dargestellten Variante der Halterung der offenen Lasche 3 zwischen den beiden zueinander schwenkbaren Plättchen 6 und 7 wäre es auch möglich, die Lasche 3 lediglich als gerades Bändchen zu formen, welches an seinem unteren Ende mit einer Verzahnung versehen ist, die in einer Gegenverzahnung an mindestens einer Innenfläche der beiden zusammenklappbaren Plättchen 6,7 Aufnahme finden würde. Diese Variante ist in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellt.In addition to the variant shown here of holding the
Die Integration der Lasche 3 mittels dem der Schlüssel 4 am Beschriftungsschildaufnahmeteil 1 direkt befestigt werden kann, so wie die Anordnung der Durchgangsöffnung 2 zur Aufhängung des Schlüsselanhängers unterhalb des Fensters 7, führt zu einer besonders raumsparenden Kombination von Schlüsselanhänger mit einer entsprechend ausgelegten Schlüsselleiste 20, die in den Figuren 5 und 6 dargestellt ist. Die Schlüsselleiste 20 besteht aus einer Schiene 21, in der über dessen gesamten Länge eine Nut 22 eingelassen ist, die zur Aufnahme eines Beschriftungsstreifens dient. Unterhalb der Nut 22 sind einstückig mit der Leiste verbundene Haken 23 angeformt. Diese haben eine senkrecht abstehende Strebe 24, dessen Länge geringfügig länger als die Dicke des Beschriftungsschildaufrahmeteils 1 ist. Die vertikal nach oben vorstehende Nase 25 am Ende der Strebe 24 entspricht in seiner Dimension ziemlich genau der Durchgangsöffnung zur Aufhängung des Schlüsselanhängers. Schlüsselanhänger und Schlüsselleiste 20 sind so konzipiert, dass im aufgehärgten Zustand des Schlüsselanhängers dessen Beschriftungsschild 5 genau über den Beschriftungsstreifen in der Nut 22 zu liegen kommt. Hierdurch ist eine einfache und augenfällige Anwesenheitskontrolle aller aufbewahrten Schlüssel möglich.The integration of the
