Embodiment Construction

[0028] Attached figure 1 and 2 A key 1 comprising a mechanical assembly according to the invention is shown by way of example. For example, key 1 is used for locking or unlocking the opening hinge of the car, and opening the hinge is used to manipulate the anti-theft lock or starter of the car. In the example shown, the key 1 comprises a key body 2 having the overall shape of a yoke comprising at least a first part 21 of the housing of the key body 2 and a second part 22 of the housing of the key body 2 . The first and second parts 21, 22 are preferably produced by moulding. The key body 2 notably carries electronic components.

[0029] The electronic components include conventional electronic devices, such as locking devices for opening hinges for remote locking of the vehicle or identification devices for recognizing that the user is authorized to use the vehicle.

[0030] The key comprises an insert 3 and a control button 31 which controls the rotational movement of the...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a key (1) and to a mechanical module for a key (1), comprising a body (2), the body (2) including a first body portion (21) and a second body portion (22), the first and second body portions (21, 22) being mechanically secured to each other via a shape assembly, the first body portion (21) including a base member (21') and a matching member (23), the matching member (23) achieving the shape assembly with the second portion (22), and the matching member (23) and the base member (21') being connected by an adhesive or welded connection.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a mechanical assembly, in particular for a vehicle key, and to a method of manufacturing such an assembly. Background technique [0002] Car keys are generally known. For example, they are used in particular for locking or unlocking opening flaps of vehicles such as doors, which actuate the flaps, immobilizers and / or starters of the vehicle. [0003] Furthermore, it is known, in particular from French patent application FR 2 815 521 A1, a car key comprising a key body forming a housing for the remote control electronics for locking the opening hinge of the vehicle. The enclosure often employs two parts, each forming approximately one half of the enclosure. The housing can be designed such that the two parts of the housing can be disassembled, or so that the two parts of the housing cannot be disassembled without destroying the housing or with minimal damage to the housing. [0004] Furthermore, the known key comprises an ins...
