  • Patent number: 8695389
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a key and to a mechanical module for a key having a key body and a key bit fitted to this key body such that it can pivot about a rotation axis between a use position and a stowed away position, the mechanical module being of the type comprising a pivoting support, holding the key bit and engaging with a control button, the control button having a first mechanical means for preventing rotation which is able to engage with a second mechanical means for preventing rotation of a casing element of the key body, it being possible for the control button to be positioned in a normal position and in a position in which it is depressed parallel to the rotation axis, the first mechanical means engaging with the second mechanical means at least at four points around the rotation axis when the control button is in its normal position.
