DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. The data carrier wristband includes a band 1 and a data carrier 2.

The band 1 is made of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, and has a band-like band body 11 and the band body 11.
It is composed of an integrated piece 12 which is integrated into

The band body 11 has a locking metal 11a and a U-shaped backing tongue 11b at one end, and a locking hole 11c from the other end to near the center. The band body 11 is formed into an annular shape when the locking fitting 11a is inserted into the locking hole 11c and locked.
By inserting the portion from the locking hole 11c into which the 11a is inserted to the other end into the inside of the backing tongue piece 11b,
The locked state is maintained. The band main body 11 is provided with fine irregularities 11d on a surface which becomes an inner surface when annular, by so-called graining, which roughens the surface.

The band body 11 is provided with a protrusion 11e projecting toward one end in the short direction at the center thereof, and an intermediate portion composed of the protrusion 11e and portions closer to both ends in the longitudinal direction than the protrusion 11e. The integrated piece 12 is integrated so as to form a bag-shaped data carrier accommodating section 13 between the section 11f and the section 11f. The data carrier accommodating section 13 is provided with an opening 13a at the leading end in the protruding direction, and the data carrier 2 is put in and out through the opening 13a. The opening 13
a is closed by mounting the mounting bracket 11g through both the protruding portion 11e and the integrated piece 12, so that the data carrier 2 accommodated in the data carrier accommodating portion 13 does not protrude outward. It has become. The inner surface of the data carrier accommodating portion 13 is provided with an uneven portion 13b similar to the above-described uneven portion 11d provided on the surface which becomes the inner surface when the ring is formed by roughening the surface, that is, so-called graining.

The data carrier 2 is formed in a substantially disk shape, and a magnetic sensor (not shown) and an internal circuit (not shown) are incorporated in the data carrier 2 so that the data carrier 2 has a predetermined interval therebetween. Input and output are enabled. More specifically, the data carrier 2 is capable of inputting and outputting data relating to the key number N displayed on the band surface and the use status of various leisure facilities and the like corresponding to the key number N. The outer surface of the data carrier 2 is provided with a concave / convex portion 2a that engages with the concave / convex portion 13b by roughening, that is, so-called graining. The uneven portion 2a and the uneven portion 13b of the band 1 are engaged with each other,
The positioning means 20 for positioning the data carrier 2 in the data carrier accommodating section 13 is constituted.

The band 1 is provided with a communication hole 13c communicating with the data carrier accommodating section 13 at the other end in the lateral direction at the center, that is, on the side opposite to the opening 13a.

When the data carrier wristband is wrapped around the wrist, the data carrier wristband can be opened and closed, and various types of payments can be made after use by simply holding the data carrier wristband over a locker or a predetermined device of various leisure facilities. Since it is possible to input data on the usage status of leisure facilities, various leisure facilities can be used without cash.

In such a data carrier wristband, since the data carrier 2 is capable of inputting and outputting data at a predetermined interval, the data carrier 2 is compared with bar code data which is read almost in a contact state. As a result, there is no possibility that data reading will malfunction due to surface contamination, and the band 1 that has been formed into an annular shape for winding around a wrist or the like is provided with an uneven portion 11d on the inner surface. Therefore, the area in contact with the skin becomes smaller, and even if the band 1 is heated by entering a sauna or the like, it is less likely to be burned.

The data carrier 2 is provided with positioning means.
Since the positioning is performed in the data carrier accommodating section 13 by the method 20, severe positional fluctuations such as vibrations in the data carrier accommodating section 13 are not repeated, and failures are less likely to occur, so that reliability is improved.

Further, even if water enters the data carrier accommodating section 13 by entering the pool or the like, the water entering the data carrier accommodating section 13 when entering the pool is taken out of the data carrier accommodating section 13 from outside. Communication hole communicating with part 13
Since the data carrier 2 escapes, the data carrier 2 does not exist in the water for a long time, and the water hardly enters the data carrier 2 and the data carrier 2 hardly breaks down, thereby increasing the reliability.

The band 1 made of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer is not easily stretched even in a hot place such as a sauna in a state where the band 1 is formed in a ring shape and wound around a wrist or the like because of its relatively high softening point. Therefore, it is difficult to loosen from a state of being wrapped around a wrist or the like.

In this embodiment, the positioning means 20 for positioning the data carrier 2 in the data carrier accommodating section 13 is provided. When the position is not repeatedly used, the positioning means 20 does not have to be provided, in which case the manufacturing becomes easier.

In the present embodiment, the band 1 is provided with a communication hole 13c communicating from the outside with the data carrier accommodating portion 13. For example, the band 1 enters and exits a place such as a pool where the data carrier 2 is immersed in water. If there is no communication hole
It is not necessary to provide 13c, in which case production becomes easier.

In this embodiment, the band 1 is made of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer. However, when the band 1 does not enter or exit a hot place such as a sauna, it may be made of another material. Often, then the degree of freedom in production increases.

In the present embodiment, the uneven portions 11d, 13b, 2a
Are provided by so-called graining, which roughens the surface, but are not limited to those provided by graining.

[0025]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, since the data carrier is capable of inputting and outputting data with a predetermined interval therebetween, the data carrier can be compared with bar code data for reading data almost in a contact state. There is no malfunction in reading the data due to the dirt on the surface.Moreover, the band that is formed into an annular shape to be wound around a wrist or the like has at least one of a concave portion and a convex portion on its inner surface. Since the band is provided, the area in contact with the skin becomes smaller, and even if the band is heated by entering the sauna or the like, the band is less likely to be burned.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in addition to the effect of the first aspect, the data carrier is positioned in the data carrier accommodating portion by the positioning means. This eliminates the possibility of failure and increases the reliability.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, even if water enters the data carrier accommodating section by entering the pool or the like, when the water leaves the pool, the water entering the data carrier accommodating section is directed outward. 3. Since the data carrier escapes from the communication hole communicating with the data carrier from above, the data carrier does not exist in the water for a long time, so that water hardly infiltrates into the data carrier and hardly breaks down. More reliable than the described invention.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in addition to the effects of the first to third aspects, the band made of the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer is formed into a ring and wound around a wrist or the like. Even when entering a high-temperature place such as a sauna in a state, it is difficult to stretch because it has a relatively high softening point, so that it does not easily loosen from a state wrapped around a wrist or the like.
