Description
- The present invention relates to ring buckle technology and more particularly, to a dual-entry keyring for receiving and keeping keys together.
- As life is getting more and more convenient, people commonly carry a number of keys, including gate key, door key, vehicle key, office key, and other types of keys. To facilitate arrangement and use, people usually will use a keyring to keep keys together.
- To meet such convenience, a variety of keyring and keychain designs of different types of structure and material or different key mounting measures have been created and have appeared on the market. However, to secure the keys most keyrings are made relatively stiff and therefore hard to open, i.e. putting on a key may be rather cumbersome. Moreover, the stiffness may lead to nails breaking when attempting to open up a keyring.
US8,464,564 discloses an elegant and cost-efficient design that solves the above-mentioned problem. - According to
US8,464,564 , the keyring comprises a wire arranged in at least two rounds providing a resilient spiral. The spiral has a first and a second end, wherein the first end by means of inertial resiliency is forced to tightly contact a first surface of a lower round and the second end is forced to tightly contact a second surface of an upper round wherein at least one end is openable, by means of arranging a peak providing a compressible gap between the at least two rounds. This keyring design is functional, however, it is rather complex and inconvenient in use. -
US 2,410,951 A discloses a key ring and the like of the general type indicated and wherein the ends of the ring may be caused to spread apart or outwardly from close relation with the mid-portion of the ring on squeezing toward one another of spread portions of the ring located at the side of the letter diametrically opposite side that ends. - The present invention has been accomplished under the circumstances in view. It is one object of the present invention to provide a dual-entry keyring of high durability and cost-effectiveness, which utilizes the principle of lever for allowing a key to be easily attached onto one of two opposite ends thereof and then turned into the inside of the ring body of the keyring through 180° angle with less effort.
- To achieve this and other objects of the present invention, a dual-entry keyring comprises a ring body in a two-turn ring shape design. The ring body comprises a first end and a second end respectively disposed at opposing top and bottom sides thereof beyond superimposition, and a first press portion and a second press portion arranged between the first end and the second end to face toward each other and respectively outwardly curved with a gap defined therebetween. Further, the part of the first turn of the two-turn ring shape design of the ring body beyond the first press portion is closely abutted to the part of the second turn of the two-turn ring shape design of the ring body beyond the second press portion so that a stress point is formed at each of two opposite lateral sides of the gap between the first press portion and the second press portion.
- Other advantages and features of the present invention will be fully understood by reference to the following specification in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which like reference signs denote like components of structure.

FIG. 5 is a schematic operational view of the present invention, illustrating another application example of the dual-entry keyring. - Referring to
FIGS. 1 and2 , a dual-entry keyring in accordance with the present invention is shown. The dual-entry keyring comprises aring body 1. In this embodiment, thering body 1 exhibits a two-turn ring shape design. Thering body 1 is made from a rigid material in a spiral form. In this embodiment, thering body 1 comprises afirst end 11 and asecond end 12 respectively disposed at opposing top and bottom sides thereof beyond superimposition. Thering body 1 further comprises afirst press portion 13 and asecond press portion 14 arranged between thefirst end 11 and thesecond end 12 to face toward each other, and respectively outwardly curved so that agap 15 is defined between thefirst press portion 13 and thesecond press portion 14. Further, thefirst end 11 and thefirst press portion 13 are formed in one turn, namely, the first turn of the two-turn ring shape design of thering body 1, thesecond end 12 and thesecond press portion 14 are formed in the other turn, namely, the second turn of the two-turn ring shape design of thering body 1. The part of the first turn of the two-turn ring shape design of thering body 1 beyond thefirst press portion 13 is closely abutted to the part of the second turn of the two-turn ring shape design of thering body 1 beyond thesecond press portion 14 so that astress point 16 is formed at each of two opposite lateral sides of thegap 15 between thefirst press portion 13 and thesecond press portion 14. In this embodiment, as illustrated inFIG. 2 , thefirst press portion 13 is on the same plane as thefirst end 11; thesecond press portion 14 is on the same plane as thesecond end 12. - Referring to
FIG. 3 , when using the dual-entry keyring, apply a pressure to thefirst press portion 13 and thesecond press portion 14 to compress thegap 15. At this time, eachstress point 16 works as the fulcrum to carry out a lever-principle experiment, causing thefirst end 11 and thesecond end 12 to tilt up at the same time, causing thering body 1 to provide an entry for allowing aring hole 101 of akey 100 to be selectively attached onto thefirst end 11 or thesecond end 12 and then moved to thefirst press portion 13 through 180° maximum (i.e., half turn of the two-turn ring shape design of the ring body 1), and thus, thekey 100 is held in thering body 1, as illustrated inFIG. 4 . Thus, the keyring structure of the present invention is convenient in use and still retains its durability for keeping keys. -
FIG. 5 illustrates another application example of the present invention. When using the dual-entry keyring to hold akey 100, insert thekey 100 into thegap 15 in a parallel manner relative to thering body 1, and then move thekey 100 along thering body 1 in the arrowhead direction as illustrated in the drawing through 180°. In the movement of thekey 100 toward thefirst end 11 orsecond end 12, the body of thekey 100 stretches open the double layer structure of thering body 1. As soon as the key 100 reaches, for example, thefirst end 11, thefirst end 11 is tiled up for allowing thering hole 101 of akey 100 to be attached onto thefirst end 11. Thus, according to this second application example, the user can attach thekey 100 onto thefirst end 11 orsecond end 12 without pressing thefirst press portion 13 and thesecond press portion 14. - Although a particular embodiment of the invention has been described in detail for purposes of illustration, various modifications and enhancements may be made Accordingly, the invention is limited by the appended claims.
