1. Field of the Invention
The invention concerns a housing for an electronic key, especially for use in motor vehicles, with electrical and electronic components inside the housing, at least some of which are arranged on a mounting plate, and with an opening in the housing, which can be covered by an elastic keypad with at least one key. In this regard, on its side facing the mounting plate, the key is provided with an extension, by which a component on the mounting plate that is designed as a switching element can be operated.
2. Description of the Related Art
Keys of this type are being used more and more nowadays to facilitate the opening and closing of a vehicle and/or the trunk of a vehicle. However, housings of this type have the disadvantages that they are not user-friendly, that the sealing by the operating parts is inadequate, or that the cost of production and/or assembly is too great.
The object of the invention is to provide the key housing with an optimum seal and to give it an improved look and feel and at the same time guarantee perfect operation.
In accordance with the invention, this object is achieved with a housing in which the keypad has a peripheral edge that grips the underside of the support lying below the keypad, and in which the elastic edge is supported on a shoulder of the housing, such that the edge is compressed against the shoulder of the housing by retaining devices to produce a tight seal. As a result of the elastic keypad, which is directly attached to a support and is fastened to the support on the housing to produce a tight seal, a reliable and easily assembled unit is obtained, which has a very nice appearance and can be reliably operated because of its good feel. The compression of the edge of the keypad significantly improves the seal, so that a tight seal is obtained all around the edge. Contaminants or liquids cannot get into the housing, since the keypad, together with the support, completely closes the opening in the housing. In this regard, it is advisable for the shoulder to be formed as a single piece with the housing, and for the shoulder to have a sealing rib which faces the edge of the keypad and which is formed as a single piece with the shoulder. The sealing rib engages the elastic edge and, in interaction with the retaining devices, increases the sealing effect.
It is advantageous if the extension is formed as a stem below the key on the inside of the keypad and passes through an opening in the support. For one thing, this produces reliable alignment of the keypad with the mounting plate located below it and thus with the switching elements, and, for another, the stem can act directly on the switching element and activate the electronics on the mounting plate. It is advantageous if the retaining devices have projections for gripping regions of the housing from behind, so that the support and the keypad can be securely held on the housing. In this regard, it is advisable for the retaining devices to be designed as elastic locking devices with tabs, which are arranged along the support to provide uniform loading of the support upon fastening.
It is especially advantageous if, during the process of inserting the assembly that consists of the support and keypad, the retaining devices first spring back and then, after the edge of the keypad has been compressed, spring into their retaining position. As a result of the fact that the edge is first compressed, and only then do the retaining devices act, it is ensured that the keypad is always securely fastened. If the latch projections cannot spring back, the keypad remains loose on the housing and this is visually obvious, so that the attachment operation must be repeated. It is advantageous for the peripheral edge of the keypad to have a U-shaped cross section to guarantee secure mounting and sealing of the support. In this regard, it is advisable for the clear separation of the two legs of the U-shaped edge to be as great as the height of a peripheral web of the support that faces in the direction of the keypad. In this way, the web of the support loads the keypad all around its edge, so that the keypad can be easily inserted, and the keypad and support form a pre-assembled unit.
In a special embodiment of the invention with a keypad that has several keys, reinforcement is provided between two keys. This reinforcement makes it possible to readily distinguish the individual keys when their switching movement is to be initiated. In this regard, it is advantageous for the reinforcement to take the form of thickening of the material, so that the individual keys themselves have a membrane-like form, while the edge around the individual keys is designed as thickened material. It is desirable to design the material thickening in the form of strips, so that these strips can fit into groove-like recesses in the support. A measure of this type results in exact alignment of the individual keys with the switching elements of the mounting plate, but still there is a clear demarcation of the individual keys.
To visually indicate even several keys of the keypad, a recess is provided on the upper side of the keypad support between two keys, which clearly bounds the individual keys of the keypad.
In this special embodiment, the recess can be designed as a groove and can have a decorative rib at least in certain regions, which simultaneously serves as a tactile ridge (tactile rib). This measure makes it possible to distinguish the individual keys even during the switching movement, since the reinforcing rib on the upper side provides an explanation that is easily felt in the flat surface. To obtain further improvement of the tactile features, it is advantageous to extend the reinforcing rib, which can be inserted in the recess, as far as the upper side of the housing in certain regions. The seal of the keypad in the housing is not impaired by all of these measures. A secure seal is produced by the support together with the keypad.
To allow the fastest possibly assembly and secure mounting, it is advisable that the housing have a web that runs completely around its periphery. The mounting plate rests on this web and can then be held on it together with the switching elements and the stems of the keypad. In addition, there is another compartment for holding such things as the power supply or other electronic or electrical components.
In a special embodiment of the invention, the housing is designed with two shells. The bottom shell holds the mounting plate, and the top shell has the opening with the control surface that can be covered by the keypad. This arrangement again provides secure mounting and a reliable construction, especially with respect to the design and sealing, since rectilinear edges or surfaces are provided at the places to be sealed.
An embodiment of the object of the invention is shown in the drawings.
The key housing 10 of the invention consists of a top shell 11 and a bottom shell 12.
The top shell 11 has a recess 13, in which a keypad 14 with individual keys 15 is inserted. The individual keys 15 are separated from one another by recesses 16. As
The U-shaped edge 19 of the keypad holds the edge 22 of the support 21 all around the periphery. In this regard, the edge of the support is provided with a web 23, which has about the same width as the U-shaped holding device, so that the edge of the keypad 14 is hardened relative to the rest of the area. The keypad itself is made of an elastic material and has the form of a membrane in the area of the keys.
The drawing shows that the shoulder 28 of the housing has a sealing rib 29. This sealing rib presses into the edge 19 of the keypad, when, during mounting, the edge is compressed and settles elastically on the shoulder.
The edge 22 of the support 21 supports locking devices 24, which are provided with a tab 25 and grip a retaining area 26 from behind for mounting.
During mounting, the assembly consisting of the support and keypad is pressed against the shoulder 28 of the top shell, which causes compression of the edge of the keypad, until the locking devices 24 spring back and then, finally, their tabs come to rest on the retaining area 26.
The only thing that remains to be added here is that the switching element 32 is provided on a mounting plate 31. The mounting plate is supported on the bottom shell and is pressed and held against the bottom shell by a peripheral projection 30 of the top shell. The peripheral projection 30 is clearly shown in
Finally, it should also be mentioned that the housing 10 has a compartment 33, which holds a mechanical key, which can be turned with a pin in the opening 17 and flipped out when needed.
The space 34 located below the mounting plate can be used to house additional components or the battery.
Three keys 15 are provided in the present embodiment, for example, one key for opening the vehicle, one for locking it, and a third for opening, e.g., the trunk of a car. As
In the embodiment shown in
The aforementioned three parts, i.e., the keypad, support, and top shell, can be assembled and mounted as a unit. The peripheral U-shaped edge of the keypad is supported on the shoulder of the housing. During assembly, the strip-like thickening devices and the stems are aligned with the openings and the U-shaped recesses, and this unit can then be inserted in the opening in such a way that the tabs of the locking devices can catch behind the retaining areas (cf.
As soon as this unit has been assembled, the top shell can be placed on the bottom shell, and then the peripheral projection 30 is supported on the upper edge of the mounting plate.
As has already been mentioned, the embodiment shown here is only an example of an implementation of the invention. The invention is not limited to this embodiment, but rather various modifications and applications are possible. To separate the individual keys of the keypad, wider grooves may also be used, in which case rod-shaped thickening devices can be inserted in the grooves, which even rest against the outer edge of the top shell in certain regions, so that it is possible, during operation, to feel the beginning and the end of the key. It is worth mentioning that the electrical design, including especially the transmitter or possibly the receiver of the key, is not shown.

Do you know the origins of the Keep Calm and Carry On sign?
Keep Calm and Carry On was a motivational poster produced by the British government in 1939 in preparation for the Second World War. The poster was intended to raise the morale of the British public, threatened with widely predicted mass air attacks on major cities. Although 2.45 million copies were printed, and although the Blitz happened, the poster was hardly ever publicly displayed and was little known until a copy was rediscovered in 2000., according to Wikipedia.

Trudeau to roll out plan to bolster funding for aboriginal education
OTTAWA- NDP Leader Tom Mulcair and Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau will deliver back-to-back speeches in Montreal this afternoon as both parties try to make their pitches to aboriginal leaders gathered for an annual meeting of the Assembly of First Nations.
Mulcair plans to offer a "new era" of nation-to-nation relations with indigenous communities if he becomes prime minister after this fall's federal election. The NDP plans to commit to a "government-wide" approach to address aboriginal affairs.
Trudeau is scheduled to speak immediately after the NDP leader.
He plans to unroll a series of campaign-style commitments, including a promise to bolster funding for aboriginal education.

Province commits $97 million to aboriginal post-secondary
|Ontario Minister of Aboriginal Affairs David Zimmer attended the annoucnement last week (Photo by Donna Duric)
The Ontario government announced last week it is committing $97 million in funding for aboriginal post-secondary education over the next three years.
Ontario Minister of Colleges, Training and Universities Reza Moridi announced the funding at Six Nations Polytechnic June 25.
"All Ontarians - including First Nation, Métis and Inuit learners - deserve equal access to high quality post-secondary education and skills training programs that will help them get good jobs," Moridi said. "Aboriginal institutes are an important component of the post-secondary education and training sector in Ontario and our increased investments and the development of a policy that better establishes their role in the broader sector will create learning environments for students that are anchored in the diverse cultural and linguistic traditions of Aboriginal communities."

Prescription drug abuse top form of elder abuse on Six Nations

The top form of elder abuse on Six Nations is prescription drug abuse.
Addicted youth and adults are stealing or otherwise interfering with narcotic prescriptions for elders in the community, wreaking havoc with their health, participants heard at a World Elder Abuse Awareness Day event at the Community Hall Monday.
Brenda Thomas, a health advocacy worker with Six Nations Health Services, says the whole community needs to work together to prevent elder abuse.
"They say it takes a whole community to raise a child; it takes the whole community to care for our elders."
She said many people are too afraid to come forward to report suspected elder abuse and that needs to change.

Parties taking aim at aboriginal voters in coming election HCCC wants consultation on Flamborough solar project
Samsung Renewable Energy wants to build another solar park on treaty lands, this time, just north east of Hamilton in the town of Flamborough.
And although the company has already approached area farmers to gauge their temperature on the proposed project, it has yet to notify the Haudenosaunee Development Institute, the planning arm of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy Chiefs' Council.
"Samsung hasn't talked to HDI yet," said HDI Director Hazel Hill. "We are in the process of notifying them that they have to obtain the approval of the HCCC for their project to go through as it is on our treaty territory."
The draft letter went out on Friday to chiefs and clanmothers who attend HDI weekly board meetings.
"I am waiting on their input before it goes out," she said.

The aboriginal vote: Can indigenous Canadians swing the election?
|Grand Chief Stewart Phillip
VANCOUVER-Grand Chief Stewart Phillip believes there has been a political awakening among aboriginals. And the influential head of the Union of British Columbia Indian Chiefs hopes that when the votes are counted in October, aboriginals will have played a key role in kicking the Conservatives from power.
The Assembly of First Nations has argued in recent weeks that if indigenous voters turn out en masse in October, they could influence the results in as many as 51 federal ridings. If so, amid early predictions of a minority government, those voters could play a significant role in deciding which party takes power.
High aboriginal turnout would normally seem far-fetched. But Phillip and others argue indigenous voters are more motivated now than ever, thanks to their perceptions of how the Conservative government has treated them.
"This in all likelihood is the most important federal election in a very, very long time," Phillip says. "And in that regard, I would hope First Nations people realize that, and know and understand how important it is to exercise their right to register a vote for the party of their choice."
Voter turnout among aboriginals has always trailed non-aboriginals. Exact figures are hard to nail down, in part because it's difficult to determine how many aboriginals living in urban centres actually cast ballots. But turnout on reserves has been between 15 and 20 per cent less than that of the general population since 2004.

At Akswesasne men armed with shotguns and AR-15s, searched the swamp and thick bush on the edge of the territory Saturday for an escaped murderer who has been on the run from authorities for three weeks.
The camouflage-clad men, known as "Land Defenders," were acting on a tip from the community that a white male had been spotted entering the woods in an area known as the "Al Capone bootleg trail" because it was used to smuggle booze during the prohibition area.
Roger Jock, who led the four-hour search, said the ongoing manhunt for the escaped inmate was beginning to put people in Akwesasne on edge.
"We have been watching and listening to this unfolding," said Jock. "A lot of people here are on edge."

The Journal Sentinel business department follows developments in the local retail industry
Some Christmas shopping went unfinished
Just over three quarters of Americans, 78%, actually finished their Christmas shopping this year, according to a new poll out Tuesday from America's Research Group.
ARG's founder Britt Beemer said the results for completion of shopping were the lowest since he's been asking this question in 26 years. In a normal year, 82% to 88% of people finish their holiday lists before Christmas.
People who don't get the job done typically give cash or gift cards, Beemer said in his report.
The huge snowstorm that hit the East Coast on the weekend before Christmas likely is to blame for the procrastination, according to the International Council of Shopping Centers. The ICSC reported Tuesday that U.S. retail sales for the week ended December 26 were up 0.4% from the prior week and up 2.3% from the same week a year ago.

Winner of the Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Award at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival, ME AND EARL AND THE DYING GIRL is the uniquely funny, moving story of Greg (Thomas Mann), a high school senior who is trying to blend in anonymously, avoiding deeper relationships as a survival strategy for navigating the social minefield that is teenage life. He even describes his constant companion Earl (R.J. Cyler), with whom he makes short film parodies of classic movies, as more of a 'co-worker' than a best friend. But when Greg's mom (Connie Britton) insists he spend time with Rachel (Olivia Cooke) – a girl in his class who has just been diagnosed with cancer – he slowly discovers how worthwhile the true bonds of friendship can be.

# Iraq gold # Iran Gold # Central Bank of Iraq # kurdistan
People have no means of storing their money except through purchasing gold due to the lack of a safe place.
NEW DELHI(BullionStreet): Just like people in neighbouring Iran, Iraqi's are fast converting thier money into gold as the country remained hit by terrorism and sectarian violence.
Analysts said most Iraqi's feared that the government may be unable to maintain economic stability as the country witnessing terrorist attacks on a daily basis.
Absence of a trustworthy banking system, especially in the northern regions also prompting people to converting their money into gold and stashing it in their homes.
People have no means of storing their money except through purchasing gold due to the lack of a safe place. Citizens do not trust banks, whether in the public or private sector.
Analysts also added that due to lack of a market for securities, stocks and bonds, citizens have no options for storing and saving money other than buying gold and keeping it in their homes.
Some analysts said improved economic situation in Iraq, despite growing violences, have pushed citizens to rely on gold as a way to save their money, given that it is easy to store.
Even gold shops become targets for armed robbery, and some jewelers have been killed, prompting many of them to move to cities in the Kurdistan Region.
The Department of Standards and Quality Control for Gold and Minerals in the Kurdistan Region acknowledges that, indeed, large quantities of gold are being imported and distributed.
The department said in the first six months of this year nearly 50 tons of gold have been imported into Iraq through the Erbil and Sulaimaniyah airports.Gold imports to Iraq are mainly from Turkey and UAE
The department is in charge of issues concerning silver and platinum as well as gold. The department licenses jewelers and gold companies and inspects jewelers' shops.
It controls the gold that comes into the region through testing, taking samples from shops and companies, and responding to complaints filed by citizens.

Movie & Blu-Ray Review: The Sound of Music (1965)
Director Robert Wise's The Sound of Music for 20th Century Fox is an opulent and lavish production. The 1965 movie musical, written by Ernest Lehman, is melodic and cinematic.

Movie Review: So Dear to My Heart (1949)
Screened at the TCM Classic Film Festival 2015, one of Walt Disney's most personal films, So Dear to My Heart, introduced by film and Disney historian Leonard Maltin, is utterly charming.

Movie Review: Too Late for Tears
This film noir classic with a femme fatale played by Lizabeth Scott (who apparently hated the movie) is a shocking portrayal of a diabolical woman literally on the manhunt. The late Miss Scott, whom I recently discussed with Leonard Maltin and Robert Osborne, was an actress with range and talent, not just looks, and this is one of the roles for which […]
Movie Review: Malcolm X
The words "…by any means necessary," conclude Spike Lee's racist propaganda piece, Malcolm X.

Toddler Tapping Zoo
Toddler Tapping Zoo was specifically designed with toddlers and young children in mind. It will expand the horizons of infants and toddlers through beautiful eye-catching images and amusing sounds of animals.
Since experts have shown that toddlers are more enthusiastic and learn more from realistic photographs than from illustrations, we have designed this app around gorgeous photographs in landscape mode to make images larger.
Toddlers learn to distinguish sounds, associate sounds with images and fine-tune their motor skills. But most of all, they have a great time.
Read together while spending quality time or use them in an "emergency" to keep them entertained at a restaurant or check-out line.
Our tapping zoo consists carefully selected list of animals. It allows for simple sequential navigation. You don't have to go back to the menu again and again.
Tap on an image and you get the sound of the animal. Tap on the text of the label and you get a professionally recorded voiceover in ENGLISH of the name of the animal.
Toddlers love repetition too. Seeing the same animals over and over helps them learn and allows they to reencounter them often, which for them is hilarious. (We know it can be frustrating as a parent, but they love it).
"Toddler Tapping Zoo" contains images and sounds of over 60 animals including:
Dog, cat, cow, horse, pig, sheep, rooster, parrot, owl, duck, lion, elephant, monkey, bear, orca, dolphin, mouse, snake, frog, camel, hippo, squirrel, koala, eagle, bee, seal, penguin and more.

Eric from Saint John, Indiana – Verified Buyer
This is my third batch of cabinets, finishing off my garage. I bought them in stages because of the cost. In this set, the mounting holes to mount the cabinet to the one next to it were 1/2" off on all if them. Not a big deal to me, but might be for some. Shipping was the fastest yet.
