摘要：A self-service, fully-automatic kiosk for duplicating keys includes a kioskhousing having a customer interface for receiving payment from a customer for thepurchase of at least one duplicate of the customer's key. A key-receiving entry in thehousing receives at least a portion of the customer's key to be duplicated, and a keyanalysis system within the housing analyzes the blade of a key inserted in the key-receiving entry to determine whether the inserted key matches one of a group ofpreselected key types and, if so, which preselected key type is matched. A key blankmagazine within the housing stores key blanks for each of the preselected key types. Akey blank extraction system extracts from the magazine a key blank for the preselectedkey type matched by the blade of the key inserted in the key-receiving entry. Then a keyduplicating system within the kiosk replicates the tooth pattern of the blade of the keyinserted in the key-receiving entry, on the blade of the extracted key blank.
