For a key to function, the shaft and rotating machine element must have a keyway and a keyseat, which is a slot and pocket in which the key fits. The whole system is called a keyed joint. [1] [2] A keyed joint may allow relative axial movement between the parts. Commonly keyed components include gears, pulleys, couplings, and washers.
A tubular lock and key. A tubular pin tumbler lock, also known as a circle pin tumbler lock, radial lock, or the trademark Ace lock popularized by manufacturer Chicago Lock Company since 1933, is a variety of pin tumbler lock in which a number of pins are arranged in a circular pattern, and the corresponding key is tubular or cylindrical in shape.
Keyway may refer to: A part of a keyed joint used to connect a rotating machine element to a shaft; see key (engineering) A keyhole , a hole or aperture (as in a door or lock) for receiving a key; see lock and key
Key relevance cannot be deduced from a key code, since the key code merely refers to a central authoritative source for designed shapes and sizes of keys. Typical modern keys require a key relevance of approximately 0.03 to 0.07 millimetres (0.0012 to 0.0028 in) (accuracy within 0.75% to 1.75%) in order to operate. [4]
A six-pin interchangeable core with an 'A' keyway and individual chamber capping in an ANSI/BHMA 626 satin chrome finish. An interchangeable core or IC is an adaptable locking key cylinder, which can be rapidly exchanged in the field via the use of specialized "control keys".
Also, there are limits on the size of internal cuts. Common internal holes can range from 0.125 to 6 in (3.2 to 152.4 mm) in diameter but it is possible to achieve a range of 0.05 to 13 in (1.3 to 330.2 mm). Surface broaches' range is usually 0.075 to 10 in (1.9 to 254.0 mm), although the feasible range is 0.02 to 20 in (0.51 to 508.00 mm).
The wedges grip an area of 75 mm 2 (0.116 sq in) and the shank is inserted 40 mm into the chuck. SDS-top A 14 mm shank similar to SDS-plus, designed for hammers from 2 to 5 kg. The grip area is increased to 212 mm 2 (0.329 sq in) and the shank is inserted 70 mm. This size remained uncommon and was discontinued in 2009. [5] SDS-max
The exact geometry of modern keys is usually described by a code system. [1] The bitting instructs a locksmith how to cut a certain key, to replace a lost key or make an additional copy. The bitting is usually a series of integers (e.g. 372164) that is usually translated from a key code chart or from a bitting code list to settings on specially ...
