Abstract (en)

The present invention concerns a key for a cylinder lock. The key (3a) comprises a key shaft (22) for inserting into a key channel of the cylinder lock; and a force transferring means (31) disposed in the key shaft (22) and comprising a first pin engaging surface (39 1 ) for engaging with a first rotor pin of the cylinder lock, and a second pin engaging surface (39 2 ) for engaging with a second rotor pin of the cylinder lock. The force transferring means (31) is configured such that, in response to a first force exerted by the first pin on the first pin engaging surface (39 1 ) in a first direction, the second pin engaging surface (39 2 ) exerts a second force on to the second pin in a second direction. The second direction is substantially opposite to the first direction. The invention also relates to the corresponding cylinder lock.
