Abstract: A device for maintaining an electronic card (2) in a reading device (4) wherefor the card is manually inserted in a housing of the reading device to reach a position, called reading position, enabling the card to be read by the reading device. It comprises elastic elements (26, 38, 42) acting on the card when the latter is in reading position in three substantially perpendicular active directions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electronic key (10) for an automotive vehicle, said key being of generally flat parallelepipedal shape and comprising: a housing (12) for an electronic card, said card being adapted to control electronically a locking/unlocking device onboard the vehicle and permitting the locking/unlocking of the openings of the vehicle, and an insert compartment (11) housing an emergency insert adapted to lock/unlock mechanically the openings of a vehicle in case of malfunction of the electronic card, said electronic key being characterized in that the insert (13) is constituted solely of a key blade and is provided with recesses (16) adapted to coact with retaining means (15) provided in the insert compartment to hold firmly the insert in the compartment no matter what its position.

Abstract: The unit (1) comprises two half-shells (11, 12) and a membrane (2) acting as a seal. The membrane comprises various zones of shapes and of properties suitable for providing additional functions such as a lightguide (21), a contact lug (23) and battery retainer lug (4), or else an escape path for static electricity discharges (25).

Abstract: A device adapted to limit the bending of a flexible tongue (15) in a bending direction includes an abutment (18) disposed in this direction at a distance (19) from the deformable end of the tongue (15). As a confinement device for a substantially flat object (7), includes a lower portion (1) supporting at least one locking element (15) flexible in a bending direction, and a member (18) for limiting bending of the locking element (15) in this direction. Application particularly to an electromagnetic automotive key housing with a removable button battery (7).

Abstract: This electronic card (10) is adapted to coact with a reader (2), one edge of the card however remaining outside the reader. It has at least one light wave guide (24) integrated into the thickness of the latter, opening on one edge (16) of the card and permitting carrying a light wave when the card (10) is introduced into the reader (2) from within the interior of the reader to the external edge of the card and/or vice versa.
