Abstract: Disclosed is a key module mechanism for an electronic door lock,
comprising: a key, a key receiving assembly, and a first circuit board. The
key includes an upper and a lower planar surface, wherein the lower surface
has two linear, parallel, distant, and raised guide rails. The key is provided
with an IC circuit for storing a password therein. The IC circuit extends to
form two contacts that are connected to a front end of the key. The key
receiving assembly includes a key socket and a socket frame. The key
socket is formed with a key opening. The key opening is formed along an
inner bottom thereof with two guide grooves that accommodate the guide rails,
such that the key opening adapts to allow precise insertion of the key. The
first circuit board is placed next to a rear end of the key socket. The first
circuit board is provided with circuits for processing password signals received
from the key, and two conductive plates secured to the first circuit board.
Each of the conductive plates includes a contact located out of a tail end of the
key opening, such that when the key is inserted into the key opening and the
contacts located at its front end protrude out of the tail end of the key opening,
the contacts may be in contact with the contacts of the conductive plates for
signal transmission. The above key module mechanism allows for precise
unlocking/locking operations between the key and key socket without
damaging the electrical contacts due to inadvertently reversed insertion.
Furthermore, because the two conductive plates are provided at the tail end of
the key opening, it is less likely to damage the electronic components due to
environmental static. Further disclosed is an electronic door lock
incorporating the above key module mechanism with a lid, a case, and a
second circuit board.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a sulfonated polymer membrane and to a process for the preparation thereof. According to the process, a polymer film is irradiated, and the irradiated polymer film is sulfonated in order to link sulfonic acid groups thereto. According to the invention, the sulfonation is continued until the total concentration of sulfonic acid groups in the membrane is 0.4-3.0 meq/g and they are homogeneously distributed in the membrane material in such a manner that their concentration in the middle of the membrane is at minimum 0.2 meq/g. With the help of the invention, it is possible by a rapid and simple process to prepare membranes the chemical and mechanical properties of which can be regulated by means of the selection of the initial film, by irradiation and by the sulfonation process.
