Abstract (en)

A device for hooking and unhooking keys carried by a key hoder comprising a key holder body (10) and a ring (11) containing an open portion sufficiently large to enable keys to be hooked on to and unhooked from the ring; the ring rotates in a slot (13) of circular arc configuration provided within the body (10) and of length such as to contain in its interior a ring portion (11) of greater length than the open ring portion; a portion of the slot (13) is constricted by an arcuate flat spring (18) which presses on to the ring (11), and of which the curvature (19) is such that when in its rest position it lies between the edges of the open portion (12) in order to prevent accidental rotation of the ring; the elasticity of the spring (18) is such as to enable it to deflect under the force exerted by the manual rotation of the ring, thus withdrawing from the open portion.
