Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of car key technology, and more specifically, relates to a car key with wireless charging. Background Technology

[0002] Car keys, as common items in daily life, are often easily forgotten or lost due to their small size. For example, a car key disclosed in patent document CN202220476562.3 (application date March 7, 2022) connects the car key to a mobile phone. When the distance between the car key and the communication mobile device exceeds a preset value, the chip circuit board triggers a prompt module to issue a warning, simultaneously providing a key-finding function to prevent forgetting the car key while using the vehicle. However, existing car keys typically use button batteries, which have a small storage capacity. Some intelligent module functions consume even more power during use, inevitably increasing the power consumption of the button battery and increasing the frequency of battery replacement. Therefore, there is a need for a car key that is easy to find and recharge. Utility Model Content
