Stylish Case for a Car Key Blind
in Product Design
held by Fox HM Ltd
Contest Ended, Winner(s) have been selected.
Description:
We are looking for some concept sketches for a key case.An innovative key case design which can hold a typical car key (attached picture). The case itself should be able to fit on a key ring.
The key should be completely hidden inside the case until the case is opened (by some creative means or mechanism) to reveal the key, either in whole or part – at least, so the user can press the buttons on the key itself.
We are looking for a high-end, upscale design, which combines smooth-functionality with luxury and desirability. A pleasure to look and feel, a pleasure to simply hold in your hand. A status object and a pleasure to use, again & again - perhaps damped - with an extremely desirable finish, perhaps piano black, brushed steel or rose gold ... following an interface design associated with the modern iPhone-types. However all design finishes will be considered.
Wants:
- Ability to be manufactured.- Ergonomic design
- Offers a good user experience
- Good interface design
- With some approximate sizing, width, length, thickness.
Don't Wants:
A purely theoretical design which is unable to be manufactured.
Additional Information
In summary, we are trying to identify an simple and innovative opening mechanism for the case which will offer an enriched user-experience.There should be no buttons on the external case.
The design should be able to be operated with a single hand.
PLEASE READ THE DESIGN BRIEF ABOVE - BEFORE SUBMITTING ANY DESIGN.

The case is opened by pressing the steel hook present at the top (to which a key chain can be fit) and is closed by pressing it again, like a click pen mechanism. Key is held tight within the lid, moves along with the lid and can freely move inside main case. Enough tolerance is provided for initial fitting of the key inside the case.
I will submit the design along with mechanism, soon.
Please review and comment.

#17 SwitchBlade Style Key Fob
by Decker
This particular contrast is a bit misleading as to exactly what the customer is after here? More and more cars now a days come key-less. Anyway, I have entered what I think is a fun stylish key holder device. The red button you see on the top is two sided. The top button extends the key out and the lower button extend the key back into the holder. The other two smaller buttons would be used as accessory functions. I have only create what I consider is a concept to the dimensions specified. More time and effort has to be place to mechanize the device. See in 3D at the following link using A360.... http://a360.co/2BPstmH.

The design is not a conventional drawer type. Case opens automatically with a simple click with thumb and I believe user feels comfort holding the device in his/her hand. It reveals sufficient space for operating key. Comment your review on the file that I have attached.
I will work on another model if this models seems irrelevant to the requirements.
Thank you.

#32 Stylish Key Holder
by MN CAD/CAM Services

I've quickly modeled out my initial idea for a stylish key holder design, per the outlined standards in the contest briefing. Brushed Titanium seems to be a fine choice, both for looks and functionality. After all, I'm sure this is a product that would be tossed quite a bit, calling for a good blend of strength and low weight.
A brass pivot pin would be the fine embellishment that would cast just enough contrast into the piece.
Holding in a closed position could be achieved with a ball detent, or similar simple device.
Thanks

Balaram: The Key is a separate item designed by a car manufacturer (see attachment). We are interested in the design of the case only (into which the key is placed).
Fox HM Ltd : Hello sir, does the system consist of metal part of key?
psr3828: Please provide a simple sketch on how it opens/ closes., Thank you
Olaolu: Please provide a simple sketch on how it opens/ closes., Thank you
budiawan: Please view the attachments, the BMW key is incompatible with your design, Thank you
Balaram: Please provide a simple sketch on how it opens/ closes., Thank you
Sachit Chawla: We like this design very much, It is very innovative - Thank you.
Please provide some approx dimensions, and secondly, please explain how one can access the buttons on the rectangular key.

Mahbub: Please resubmit with .rar file compression (no zip files), thanks
arkiattack: Nothing which requires battery power.
akhilesh: No, we are not comfortable with that size, its waaay, to thick, 20mm max for us.
Hi sir! you wan eletrocmechanicals parts for these entry: motors, servos, gears, touch sensors?
, Thanks for the response. Yes, it is possible to have a rectangular design with the same idea, but it take a size upto, 40mm×40mm×80mm.Are you comfortable with that size?
arkiattack: Very interesting design, but no, this is not really for us - we would prefer a solid mechanism, which serves to reveal the rectangular key.
akhilesh: A very good design showing innovation, which is what we are looking for. Is it possible to have a rectangular shape (which reflect the shape of the BMW key), rather then the barrel shape form, you have shown?
MN CAD/CAM Services: Yes we had thought of this some time ago, and it remains a solid functional design. However, the issue is thickness - the rectangular BMW key is 13mm thick, which would mean the lower section would be much thicker than the upper section, resulting in asymmetic aesthetics?
mahsali: Interesting design and well demonstrated. We would be looking for something a bit more ‘solid’ with a solid mechanism rather a screen-enclosed system.
Jagadish : Perhaps you can elaborate on how the mechanism works. A pencil sketch will do fine.
Blazest: Thank you for the design, however, the key is not this shape - see attachment for the key, its a rectangular shape. Also, is the design able to operated with one hand? We do not think so.
