本發明在其部分實施例中係有關鎖扣機構，且更特別有關但不限於有關配合使用圓筒鎖具之鑰匙胚料。The present invention, in some embodiments thereof, relates to a latching mechanism, and more particularly, but not exclusively, to a key blank for use with a cylinder lock.
本發明部分實施例的一態樣係提供鑰匙胚料，其包括被定位於一鑰匙軸的相對表面上之兩操作鑰匙元件，以使兩操作鑰匙元件呈現同軸。根據本發明部分實施例，同軸操作元件的至少一者係由一韌性材料構成及/或身為一彈簧負載式元件。選用性地，另一同軸操作元件係不為韌性(或彈簧負載式)並在與一對應鎖具中的一鎖扣銷機構呈現匹配的預定形狀、尺寸及深度之一軸的一表面上設有一凹陷。根據本發明部分實施例，至少一韌性或彈簧負載式元件當該元件上未施加外力時係從軸的一表面突出並回應於一施加其上的外力而往內縮回一腔穴內。根據本發明部分實施例，同軸操作元件各者係可操作以操作一匹配的鎖具之一不同鎖扣銷機構。An aspect of some embodiments of the present invention provides a key blank that includes two operating key elements that are positioned on opposite surfaces of a key shaft such that the two operating key elements are coaxial. According to some embodiments of the invention, at least one of the coaxial operating elements is constructed of a malleable material and/or acts as a spring loaded element. Optionally, the other coaxial operating element is not tough (or spring loaded) and is provided with a recess on a surface of one of a predetermined shape, size and depth that matches a latching pin mechanism in a corresponding lock. . In accordance with some embodiments of the present invention, at least one tough or spring loaded element projects from a surface of the shaft when no external force is applied to the element and retracts into a cavity in response to an external force applied thereto. According to some embodiments of the invention, the coaxial operating elements are each operable to operate one of the matching locks with a different latching pin mechanism.
根據本發明部分實施例，兩同軸元件皆為韌性及/或彈簧負載式並可操作以當外力未施加至該等元件上時從軸的相對表面突出且操作元件各回應於一施加其上的外力而往內縮回一腔穴內。通常，腔穴供兩元件共用。通常，各同軸元件若是彈簧負載式，利用一共同彈簧元件對於兩元件提供韌性性質。According to some embodiments of the invention, both coaxial members are tough and/or spring loaded and are operable to protrude from opposite surfaces of the shaft when an external force is not applied to the members and the operating members each respond to an applied thereto External force and retracted into a cavity. Typically, the cavity is shared by both components. Typically, if the coaxial elements are spring loaded, a common spring element provides toughness properties for both components.
部分示範性實施例中，同軸操作元件係沿著鑰匙軸表面的一緯度軸線被定心。選用性地，同軸操作元件係彼此相同且因此提供一可逆式鑰匙。或者，這些同軸操作元件各為不同，譬如呈現不同形狀及尺寸。In some exemplary embodiments, the coaxial operating element is centered along a latitude axis of the surface of the key shaft. Alternatively, the coaxial operating elements are identical to each other and thus provide a reversible key. Alternatively, the coaxial operating elements are each different, such as in different shapes and sizes.
部分示範性實施例中，一鑰匙軸設有複數個同軸對的操作元件，譬如兩對。選用性地，同軸對沿著軸寬度彼此呈對稱性偏移，使得鑰匙可為可逆式。選用性地，軸的一共同表面上之操作元件係為不同但來自不同對及位於軸的不同側上之操作元件則相同，使得鑰匙可為可逆式。或者，同軸元件皆為不同且適合對於一不可逆式鑰匙胚料提供更多組合。選用性地，一鑰匙軸係設有在鑰匙胚料的一縱軸線呈彼此偏移之複數個同軸對的操作元件。此鑰匙亦為可逆式。In some exemplary embodiments, a key shaft is provided with a plurality of coaxial pairs of operating elements, such as two pairs. Optionally, the coaxial pairs are symmetrically offset from one another along the axis width such that the key can be reversible. Optionally, the operating elements on a common surface of the shaft are different but the operating elements from different pairs and on different sides of the shaft are identical such that the key can be reversible. Alternatively, the coaxial components are all different and are suitable for providing more combinations for an irreversible key blank. Optionally, a key shaft is provided with a plurality of coaxial pairs of operating elements that are offset from each other on a longitudinal axis of the key blank. This key is also reversible.
本發明人已經發現，沿著單一軸線提供兩個操作元件係可增加一鑰匙軸的一表面積上方之韌性操作元件所可能具有的組合數。通常，鑰匙軸上及對應的圓筒鎖具中所提供之空間係為有限。將操作元件設置於鑰匙軸的相對表面上(及一鎖具的一鑰匙槽之相對側上)係可增加可同時用來鎖扣鎖具之鎖扣銷機構數。The inventors have discovered that providing two operating elements along a single axis increases the number of combinations that a tough operating element can have over a surface area of a key shaft. Generally, the space provided on the key shaft and in the corresponding cylinder lock is limited. Positioning the operating element on the opposite surface of the key shaft (and on the opposite side of a keyway of a lock) increases the number of latching pin mechanisms that can be used to simultaneously lock the lock.
根據本發明部分實施例，在一鑰匙胚料中製作一通孔(一貫通孔徑)然後將操作元件***且扣持於該通孔內，藉以製造一鑰匙胚料、且包括同軸操作鑰匙元件。選用性地，同軸操作元件在被***及扣持於鑰匙軸(譬如鑰匙軸上所製作的通孔)中前係以一封囊形式預組裝。本發明人已經發現從製造觀點來看，將韌性操作元件導入一通孔中可能優於將此等元件嵌入一盲孔中。通常，在一鑰匙軸上製作一通孔係比製作一盲孔更為容易且便宜，並由於通常與盲孔維度相關聯的公差未發揮作用，因此通孔可供以較高精確度來定位同軸操作元件。此外，被組裝在一通孔內之同軸元件係可供使用一共同腔穴來容納兩操作元件及/或一共同彈簧元件以彈簧負載兩操作元件。因此，該單元比起被組裝在兩分離的盲孔中之操作元件更為便宜。According to some embodiments of the present invention, a through hole (a through hole) is formed in a key blank and then the operating member is inserted and held in the through hole, thereby manufacturing a key blank and including a coaxial operation key member. Optionally, the coaxial operating element is pre-assembled in the form of a capsule before being inserted and held in a key shaft (such as a through hole made in a key shaft). The inventors have discovered that from a manufacturing point of view, the introduction of a tough operating element into a through hole may be advantageous for embedding such element in a blind hole. In general, it is easier and cheaper to make a through hole on a key shaft than to make a blind hole, and because the tolerances normally associated with the blind hole dimension do not work, the through hole can be used to position the coaxial with higher accuracy. Operating element. In addition, the coaxial components that are assembled in a through hole can be used to accommodate two operating elements and/or a common spring element to spring load the two operating elements using a common cavity. Therefore, the unit is less expensive than the operating elements assembled in the two separate blind holes.
根據本發明部分實施例，彈簧負載式操作元件的至少一者係可操作以施加一力於一鎖扣銷上藉以釋放鎖具的一剪線。通常，所施的力係可操作以推出一突入插塞中的銷並藉此使插塞的剪線呈現自由。通常，一鑰匙軸上所設置的同軸元件係與可操作以被動式接合於鎖具中額外鎖扣銷機構之鑰匙軸上的其他凹陷及/或切口共存。通常，此等凹陷及/或切口係可供接收原本從插塞突出之彈簧負載式銷。本發明人已發現，當鎖具包括需從鑰匙槽所界定的容積被推離藉以清除插塞的剪線且容許旋轉之兩個背對的鎖扣銷機構時，挑選與此鑰匙相關聯的一鎖具之困難度係增高。In accordance with some embodiments of the present invention, at least one of the spring loaded operating elements is operable to apply a force on a latching pin to release a trim of the lock. Typically, the applied force is operable to push a pin that projects into the plug and thereby free the trimming of the plug. Typically, the coaxial elements disposed on a key shaft coexist with other recesses and/or cuts that are operable to passively engage the key shaft of the additional latch pin mechanism in the lock. Typically, such depressions and/or slits are adapted to receive a spring loaded pin that would otherwise protrude from the plug. The present inventors have discovered that when the lock includes a lock pin mechanism that is required to be pushed away from the volume defined by the keyway to clear the cut wire of the plug and allow rotation, the one associated with the key is selected. The difficulty of the lock is increased.

現在參照第11A及11B圖，其顯示根據本發明部分實施例之示範性鑰匙胚料的示意圖，其包括兩同軸對的操作元件。根據本發明部分實施例，不只一對的同軸操作元件可被包括在單一鑰匙胚料中。部分示範性實施例中，藉由包括額外對的同軸操作元件係可藉由提供不同鑰匙及鎖具組合來提高可能具備的安全性。部分示範性實施例中，添加額外對的同軸元件亦可使鑰匙成為可逆式。部分示範性實施例中，同軸元件25A及25B係沿著軸12的寬度呈現分開(第11A圖)。選用性地，當兩對的同軸元件具有相同結構且相對於軸12的一縱軸線X被對稱性定位時，鑰匙30可為可逆式。選用性地，額外對的同軸元件、譬如同軸元件25C及25D係沿著軸的縱軸線分開如第11B圖所示。選用性地，在兩同軸元件25C及25D皆沿著一軸線X被定位時之案例中，鑰匙30可為可逆式(第11B圖)。Referring now to Figures 11A and 11B, there are shown schematic views of an exemplary key blank in accordance with some embodiments of the present invention, including two coaxial pairs of operating elements. According to some embodiments of the invention, more than one pair of coaxial operating elements may be included in a single key blank. In some exemplary embodiments, the security that may be provided can be improved by providing different key and lock combinations by including additional pairs of coaxial operating elements. In some exemplary embodiments, the addition of an additional pair of coaxial elements may also make the key reversible. In some exemplary embodiments, the coaxial elements 25A and 25B are separated along the width of the shaft 12 (Fig. 11A). Optionally, the key 30 can be reversible when the two pairs of coaxial elements have the same structure and are symmetrically positioned relative to a longitudinal axis X of the shaft 12. Alternatively, the additional pairs of coaxial elements, such as coaxial elements 25C and 25D, are separated along the longitudinal axis of the shaft as shown in FIG. 11B. Alternatively, in the case where both coaxial members 25C and 25D are positioned along an axis X, the key 30 may be reversible (Fig. 11B).
現在參照第12A-12C圖，其顯示根據本發明部分實施例之示範性同軸對的操作元件沿著第11A圖的線XI-XI之放大橫剖視示意圖。部分示範性實施例中，對25A及25B的各操作元件係相同(第12A圖)且因此當該等對沿著軸12寬度被對稱性對準時鑰匙30可為可逆式。選用性地，不同對之背對的操作元件係相同且鑰匙30仍可為可逆式。譬如第12B圖所示，同軸對25A及25B的各者係包括一操作元件222及一操作元件200但位於軸12的相對表面上。選用性地，鑰匙30未設計成可逆式且各操作元件可為獨特性，譬如第12C圖的操作元件200、202、203及204。因此，用於韌性元件之不同鑰匙及鎖具組合數係增多而挑選此鎖具的難度亦提高。Referring now to Figures 12A-12C, there is shown an enlarged cross-sectional view of an exemplary coaxial pair of operational elements along line XI-XI of Figure 11A, in accordance with some embodiments of the present invention. In some exemplary embodiments, the operational elements of pairs 25A and 25B are identical (Fig. 12A) and thus the key 30 may be reversible when the pairs are symmetrically aligned along the width of the shaft 12. Alternatively, the opposite pairs of operating elements are identical and the key 30 can still be reversible. As shown in FIG. 12B, each of the coaxial pairs 25A and 25B includes an operating member 222 and an operating member 200 but is located on the opposite surface of the shaft 12. Alternatively, the key 30 is not designed to be reversible and the various operating elements may be unique, such as the operating elements 200, 202, 203 and 204 of Figure 12C. Therefore, the number of different key and lock combinations for the tough component is increasing, and the difficulty in selecting the lock is also increased.
根據本發明部分實施例，兩對的同軸元件之總成係類似於參照第3、4A-4B及/或5A-5B圖所描述的方法。通常，兩對的各者係從鑰匙軸12的相對表面作組裝。譬如，同軸對25B可從表面16被***並在一端藉由階步164B被固持於軸內且從另一端藉由一密封元件28相對於表面16被密封。同軸對25A可從表面18被***且相對於表面16被密封。According to some embodiments of the invention, the assembly of two pairs of coaxial elements is similar to the method described with reference to Figures 3, 4A-4B and/or 5A-5B. Typically, each of the two pairs is assembled from the opposite surface of the key shaft 12. For example, the coaxial pair 25B can be inserted from the surface 16 and held in the shaft at one end by a step 164B and sealed from the other end by a sealing element 28 relative to the surface 16. The coaxial pair 25A can be inserted from the surface 18 and sealed relative to the surface 16.
第13圖顯示根據本發明部分實施例之一圓筒鎖具的橫剖視示意圖，其具有四個適合操作性接合於一鑰匙之兩同軸對的操作元件之鎖扣銷機構。根據本發明部分實施例，鎖具505係包括四個鎖扣銷機構，其可操作以接合鑰匙30的四個操作元件各者。通常，四個鎖扣銷機構係由對準於兩對同軸操作元件之兩對同軸鎖扣銷機構構成。通常，各鎖扣銷機構係分別包括一鑰匙銷，譬如95A、95B、97A、97B，一驅動銷，譬如93A、93B、91A、91B，及一彈簧元件，分別譬如為90A、90B、99A、99B。根據本發明部分實施例，只有當所有四個銷機構清除剪線98時，軸94方可被旋轉使得四個操作元件各者必須匹配於四個鎖扣銷機構各者以解鎖鎖具504。Figure 13 is a cross-sectional view of a cylinder lock in accordance with some embodiments of the present invention having four latching pin mechanisms adapted to be operatively coupled to two coaxial pairs of operating elements of a key. In accordance with some embodiments of the present invention, the lock 505 includes four latching pin mechanisms that are operable to engage each of the four operating elements of the key 30. Typically, the four latching pin mechanisms are constructed of two pairs of coaxial latching pin mechanisms that are aligned with two pairs of coaxial operating elements. Typically, each of the latching pin mechanisms includes a key pin, such as 95A, 95B, 97A, 97B, a drive pin, such as 93A, 93B, 91A, 91B, and a spring element, such as 90A, 90B, 99A, respectively. 99B. According to some embodiments of the present invention, the shaft 94 can be rotated only when all four pin mechanisms clear the trim 98 so that each of the four operating elements must match each of the four latch mechanisms to unlock the lock 504.
現在參照第14A-14B圖，其顯示根據本發明部分實施例之一圓筒鎖具的一插塞之橫剖視示意圖，其包括以一可逆式鑰匙所操作之一對鎖扣銷機構，其包括沿著鑰匙軸寬度被定位之兩同軸對的操作元件。根據本發明部分實施例，一鑰匙上並非全部操作元件皆可***作性接合至鎖具中的鎖扣銷機構以供解鎖鎖具(或鎖具的元件)。根據本發明部分實施例，只有一對同軸元件25B可操作以接合鎖扣銷機構並釋放鎖具，而其他對的同軸元件25A則不可操作。然而，當使鑰匙逆轉時，對25A將可操作以接合鎖扣銷機構，且對25B將不可操作。當一對同軸元件未***作性接合時，該對的突出元件係凹入以配合至鑰匙槽96中且不會阻擋鎖具的操作。選用性地，不需要鎖扣銷機構且包括鑰匙銷95、驅動銷93及彈簧元件90亦然。Referring now to Figures 14A-14B, which are schematic cross-sectional views of a plug of a cylinder lock in accordance with some embodiments of the present invention, including a lock pin mechanism operated by a reversible key, including The operating elements of the two coaxial pairs in which the key shaft width is positioned. In accordance with some embodiments of the present invention, not all of the operating elements on a key can be operatively coupled to the latching pin mechanism in the lock for unlocking the lock (or the components of the lock). According to some embodiments of the invention, only one pair of coaxial elements 25B are operable to engage the latch pin mechanism and release the lock, while the other pairs of coaxial elements 25A are inoperable. However, when the key is reversed, the pair 25A will be operable to engage the latch pin mechanism and the pair 25B will be inoperable. When a pair of coaxial elements are not operatively engaged, the pair of protruding elements are recessed to fit into the key slot 96 and do not obstruct the operation of the lock. Optionally, the latching pin mechanism is not required and includes the key pin 95, the drive pin 93 and the spring element 90 as well.
現在參照第15A-15C圖，即根據本發明部分實施例之示範性鑰匙胚料的示意圖，其各包括由一韌性元件構成之一同軸對的操作元件。根據本發明部分實施例，操作元件200係為彈簧元件，譬如板片彈簧元件。部分示範性實施例中，彈簧元件200的一部分199係被固定，譬如不可旋轉地固定至軸12中。操作部分200當壓縮力未施加其上時係從軸12突出並回應於施加其上的一壓縮力而退回至軸12中。請注意彈簧板片200雖被顯示成一個元件，同軸操作元件200各者係可替代性地由分開的彈簧元件形成。Reference is now made to Figs. 15A-15C, which are schematic illustrations of exemplary key blanks in accordance with some embodiments of the present invention, each of which includes an operational element that is coaxially opposed by a tough element. According to some embodiments of the invention, the operating element 200 is a spring element, such as a leaf spring element. In some exemplary embodiments, a portion 199 of the spring element 200 is secured, such as non-rotatably secured to the shaft 12. The operating portion 200 protrudes from the shaft 12 when a compressive force is not applied thereto and retracts into the shaft 12 in response to a compressive force applied thereto. Please note that although the spring plate 200 is shown as one element, the coaxial operating elements 200 can alternatively be formed from separate spring elements.
