[0019] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, further clarifies the specific embodiments of the present invention, making the technical solution and its beneficial effects clearer and more explicit.
[0020] See appendix Figures 1 to 2 The first embodiment of this utility model includes several independent key blanks 1 assembled into a key. The key blanks 1 are stacked together and are fixedly connected by adhesive or welding.
[0021] Furthermore, the key blank 1 includes a first positive locking groove blank 101, a first middle blank 102 and a first reverse locking groove blank 103 stacked from top to bottom.
[0022] Furthermore, the first positive locking slot blank 101 includes a first positive locking slot portion 101a, a first positive connecting portion 101b, and a first handle portion 101c arranged from left to right; the first middle blank 102 includes a first center portion 102a, a first center connecting portion 102b, and a second handle portion 102c arranged from left to right; and the first reverse locking slot blank 103 includes a first reverse locking slot portion 103a, a first reverse connecting portion 103b, and a third handle portion 103c arranged from left to right.
[0023] Furthermore, the first positive locking groove 101a, the first center part 102a and the first negative locking groove 103a are matched, the first positive connecting part 101b, the first center connecting part 102b and the first negative connecting part 103b are matched, the first handle part 101c, the second handle part 102c and the third handle part 103c are matched, and the right end of the first handle part 101c, the second handle part 102c and the third handle part 103c is provided with a first serial connection hole 104.
[0024] The key blank 1 can be made of a material with good elasticity and toughness, such as stainless steel sheet. According to the key's shape requirements, the sheet is laser-cut into a suitable shape. Then, the first positive lock groove blank 101, the first middle blank 102, and the first negative lock groove blank 103 are fixedly connected together using metal adhesive or laser welding. Finally, the key is polished to obtain the desired key.
[0025] The multi-layered boards are fixedly connected together, so that if one layer breaks, all the boards will break at the same time. The keys made in this way are very tough and are not prone to breakage.
[0026] See appendix Figures 3 to 4 In the second embodiment of this utility model, the key blank 1 includes a second positive locking groove blank 105, a second middle blank 106, a second anti-locking groove blank 107 and a handle blank 108. The second positive locking groove blank 105, the second middle blank 106 and the second anti-locking groove blank 107 are stacked from top to bottom, and the handle blank 108 is located at the right end of the key blank 1.
[0027] Furthermore, the second positive locking groove blank 105 includes a second positive locking groove portion 105a and a second positive connecting portion 105b arranged from left to right, the second middle blank 106 includes a second center portion 106a and a second center connecting portion 106b arranged from left to right, the second reverse locking groove blank 107 includes a second reverse locking groove portion 107a and a second reverse connecting portion 107b arranged from left to right, and a second connecting hole 108a is provided on the right end of the handle blank 108.
