The present invention relates to the field of cards comprising an electronic memory, for example telephone cards or prepaid cards.
Pour de telles cartes, il est habituel d'avoir un support en matière plastique du format d'une carte de visite muni d'un circuit électronique comportant une mémoire ou un microprocesseur solidaire d'un circuit de connexion est scellé dans le support. For such cards, it is usual to have a plastic support in the format of a business card provided with an electronic circuit comprising a memory or a microprocessor secured to a connection circuit is sealed in the support.
On a aussi proposé de réaliser des cartes d'un format plus petit appelé"carte MICRO-SIM". Ces cartes dites MICRO-SIM sont notamment utilisées comme éléments de mémoire et de personnalisation pour des téléphones cellulaires. It has also been proposed to produce cards of a smaller format called "MICRO-SIM card". These so-called MICRO-SIM cards are used in particular as memory and personalization elements for cell phones.
On connaît en particulier le brevet FR2783750 concerne une carte comportant, d'une part, un corps de carte plastique et, d'autre part, un module sécable retenu audit corps par une ou plusieurs liaisons plastiques et comprenant une puce à circuits intégrés connectée électriquement a des plages de contact affleurantes a sa surface. Le corps de carte comporte une partie d'ouverture prédécoupée ou non aux dimensions sensiblement voisines du module et destinée à assurer une fixation réversible de ce module. L'invention s'applique en aux cartes SIM. The patent FR2783750 is known in particular concerning a card comprising, on the one hand, a plastic card body and, on the other hand, a breakable module retained to said body by one or more plastic connections and comprising an integrated circuit chip electrically connected has flush contact areas on its surface. The card body includes an opening part which may or may not be precut to dimensions substantially close to the module and intended to ensure reversible fixing of this module. The invention applies to SIM cards.
Ces cartes MICRO-SIM sont généralement montées dans une carte de plus grande dimension. En effet, une carte MICRO-SIM est difficile à manipuler et peut-être facilement perdue. Pour éviter cet inconvénient, on a These MICRO-SIM cards are generally mounted in a larger card. Indeed, a MICRO-SIM card is difficult to handle and may be easily lost. To avoid this inconvenience, we have

proposé dans l'art antérieur de loger la carte MICRO-SIM avant son utilisation dans une carte de plus grande dimension, de format carte de visite. La carte MICRO-SIM est maintenue par des attaches provisoires. Pour utiliser la carte MICRO-SIM, on la détache de la carte de grande dimension en brisant ses attaches provisoires. L'inconvénient de cette solution est que la carte MICRO-SIM peut se dégrader lors de cette opération.
proposed in the prior art to house the MICRO-SIM card before its use in a larger card, business card format. The MICRO-SIM card is held in place by temporary clips. To use the MICRO-SIM card, detach it from the large card by breaking its temporary fasteners. The disadvantage of this solution is that the MICRO-SIM card can be degraded during this operation.
La pression exercée perpendiculairement au plan de la surface de la carte peut provoquer une rupture des conducteurs ou un dommage aux circuits logés sur la carte MICRO-SIM. The pressure exerted perpendicular to the plane of the card surface can cause the conductors to break or damage the circuits housed on the MICRO-SIM card.
Le but de l'invention est de remédier à cet inconvénient en proposant une solution à ce risque de dégradation de la carte MICRO-SIM. The object of the invention is to remedy this drawback by proposing a solution to this risk of degradation of the MICRO-SIM card.
L'invention concerne selon son acception la plus générale une carte comportant un module sécable du type MICRO-SIM, caractérisé en ce que le module sécable présente trois côtés libres, et rattaché par un support provisoire par un côté seulement, par l'intermédiaire d'une ligne sécable. The invention relates, in its most general sense, to a card comprising a breakable module of the MICRO-SIM type, characterized in that the breakable module has three free sides, and attached by a temporary support by only one side, by means of 'a breakable line.
Ce mode de réalisation permet d'insérer la carte MICRO-SIM dans le connecteur de carte MICRO-SIM et après seulement cette insertion de provoquer la rupture de la ligne sécable. On évite ainsi d'endommager la carte MICRO-SIM lors de la séparation de son support. This embodiment allows the MICRO-SIM card to be inserted into the MICRO-SIM card connector and after only this insertion to cause the breakable line to break. This prevents damage to the MICRO-SIM card when the holder is separated.
Cette séparation n'intervient qu'après avoir été introduite dans le connecteur où elle est protégée. Ce mode de réalisation permet aussi de réduire le coût de fabrication en permettant d'utiliser une quantité de This separation only occurs after being introduced into the connector where it is protected. This embodiment also makes it possible to reduce the manufacturing cost by allowing the use of a quantity of

matière plastique moindre et de réaliser la fabrication d'une telle carte par un seul moule, sans aucune opération d'assemblage. less plastic and to make the manufacture of such a card by a single mold, without any assembly operation.
Selon une première variante, le module sécable présente un angle détrompeur disposé du côté opposé à la ligne de rattachement avec la partie complémentaire de la carte. According to a first variant, the breakable module has a keying angle arranged on the side opposite to the connecting line with the complementary part of the card.
Selon une autre variante, cet angle détrompeur est disposé du côté de la ligne de rattachement. According to another variant, this keying angle is arranged on the side of the connecting line.
Selon un mode de réalisation avantageux, la ligne sécable est formée par une gorge présentant une section transversale en forme de V. De préférence, la ligne sécable présente un flan perpendiculaire, et un flan oblique. Le flan perpendiculaire est disposé du côté du module sécable. According to an advantageous embodiment, the breakable line is formed by a groove having a V-shaped cross section. Preferably, the breakable line has a perpendicular blank, and an oblique blank. The perpendicular blank is placed on the side of the breakable module.
Selon une autre variante de réalisation, la ligne sécable est perforée. According to another alternative embodiment, the breakable line is perforated.
La ligne sécable comporte également un flan complémentaire formant un dièdre. The breakable line also includes a complementary blank forming a dihedral.

La carte comporte un module sécable 1 et une partie complémentaire 2. Le module sécable 1 présente de façon connue un circuit électronique 3 présentant des pistes de connexions métalliques. Le module sécable présente par ailleurs un coin 5 découpé, constituant un détrompeur. Le connecteur destiné à recevoir la carte MICRO-SIM présente un angle de forme complémentaire, ce qui évite l'introduction erronée de la carte MICRO-SIM dans le connecteur d'un équipement informatique. The card includes a breakable module 1 and a complementary part 2. The breakable module 1 has an electronic circuit 3 in known manner having metal connection tracks. The breakable module also has a cut corner 5, constituting a key. The connector intended to receive the MICRO-SIM card has an angle of complementary shape, which avoids the erroneous introduction of the MICRO-SIM card into the connector of a computer equipment.
Le module sécable se prolonge par une partie complémentaire 2. Entre les deux, la carte présente une ligne de rupture 6 permettant de détacher le module sécable de la partie complémentaire 2. Au niveau de cette zone de rupture, la carte présente sur chacune de ses faces une nervure. la section de cette nervure est en forme de V, avec un flan vertical et un flan oblique. Le flan vertical est disposé du côté du module sécable 1, alors que le flan oblique est disposé du côté de la partie complémentaire 2. The breakable module is extended by a complementary part 2. Between the two, the card has a breaking line 6 making it possible to detach the breakable module from the complementary part 2. At this rupture zone, the card present on each of its faces a rib. the section of this rib is V-shaped, with a vertical blank and an oblique blank. The vertical blank is placed on the side of the breakable module 1, while the oblique blank is placed on the side of the complementary part 2.
