Description

La présente invention concerne un étui support de carte d'identification.The present invention relates to an identification card holder case.

Il est d'un usage de plus en plus fréquent d'utiliser des étuis pour y glisser une carte porteuse d'inscription d'identification d'une personne ou d'une société ou des deux à la fois, et portant parfois la photographie du sujet. On connaît déjà (US-A 4 141 400) un étui support de carte d'identification comportant un fond, un couvercle transparent, deux côtés latéraux liés au fond et dont la face interne sert de guide latéral à la carte, au moins une butée arrière et une entrée à l'opposé de la butée arrière permettant l'introduction et l'extraction de la carte en la glissant dans l'étui dans son propre plan. Les cartes portent également fréquemment une bande magnétique pour l'enregistrement magnétique de certaines données, la bande magnétique étant souvent remplacée par un circuit électronique intégré à mémoire portant des contacts en circuits imprimés. L'introduction et l'extraction fréquentes d'une telle carte d'un tel étui provoquent à la longue une détérioration de la bande magnétique ou des contacts à cause des frottements.It is more and more common to use cases to slip a card carrying the identification registration of a person or a company or both at the same time, and sometimes bearing the photograph of the topic. We already know (US-A 4,141,400) an identification card support case comprising a bottom, a transparent cover, two lateral sides linked to the bottom and the internal face of which serves as a lateral guide for the card, at least one stop. rear and an entry opposite the rear stop allowing the introduction and extraction of the card by sliding it into the case in its own plane. Cards also frequently carry a magnetic strip for the magnetic recording of certain data, the magnetic strip being often replaced by an integrated electronic circuit with memory carrying contacts in printed circuits. The frequent introduction and extraction of such a card from such a case in the long term causes deterioration of the magnetic strip or of the contacts due to friction.

La présente invention a pour but de pallier ces inconvénients; elle a pour objet un étui support caractérisé en ce que l'extrémité supérieure de chacun desdits côtés latéraux est munie, en surplomb du fond, d'un organe presseur élastique permettant, en coopération avec une nervure support, parallèle au côté latéral adjacent et portée par ledit fond, d'exercer une légère pression sur la carte introduite et d'assurer ainsi son maintien, en position à la fois légèrement surélevée par rapport audit fond et légèrement au-dessous dudit couvercle.The present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks; it relates to a support case characterized in that the upper end of each of said lateral sides is provided, overhanging the bottom, with an elastic pressing member allowing, in cooperation with a support rib, parallel to the adjacent lateral side and carried by said bottom, to exert a slight pressure on the card inserted and thus ensure its maintenance, in position both slightly raised relative to said bottom and slightly below said cover.

Selon une réalisation préférée, le couvercle comporte sur sa face interne une nervure entretoise parallèle aux côtés latéraux.According to a preferred embodiment, the cover has on its internal face a spacer rib parallel to the lateral sides.

Avantageusement, une telle nervure entretoise est également réalisée sur la face interne du fond entre les deux nervures supports.Advantageously, such a spacer rib is also produced on the internal face of the bottom between the two support ribs.

On va maintenant donner la description d'un exemple de mise en oeuvre de l'invention en se référant au dessin annexé, dans lequel:

  • - la Figure 1 est une vue en perspective montrant un étui selon l'invention;
  • - la Figure 2 montre la face inférieure de l'étui avec le dispositif d'agrafe ôtée montrée séparément.
We will now give the description of an example of implementation of the invention with reference to the appended drawing, in which:
  • - Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a case according to the invention;
  • - Figure 2 shows the underside of the case with the removed staple device shown separately.

La figure 3 est une coupe selon III-III de la figure 2.Figure 3 is a section on III-III of Figure 2.

La figure 4 est une vue éclatée de l'ensemble de l'étui.Figure 4 is an exploded view of the entire case.

La figure 5 montre l'étui complet assemblé, en coupe transversale selon V-V de la figure 2.FIG. 5 shows the complete assembled case, in cross section along V-V of FIG. 2.

En se référant à la figure 1, on voit un étui destiné à recevoir une carte 1 porteuse d'un certain nombre d'indications d'identification, certaines de ces indications étant par exemple enregistrées magnéti- quement sur des bandes magnétiques telles que 2 et 3.Referring to FIG. 1, there is seen a case intended to receive a card 1 carrying a certain number of identification indications, some of these indications being for example recorded magnetically on magnetic tapes such as 2 and 3.

L'étui représenté comporte un fond 4 et un couvercle 5 transparent.The case shown has a bottom 4 and a transparent cover 5.

L'ensemble forme un boîtier dans lequel on introduit la carte. Le boîtier est fermé latéralement par des côtés latéraux 6 et 7 appartenant au fond 4 et dont les faces internes servent de guidage latéral à la carte.The assembly forms a housing into which the card is introduced. The housing is closed laterally by lateral sides 6 and 7 belonging to the bottom 4 and whose internal faces serve as lateral guidance to the card.

Une butée arrière 8 (figures 2, 3) appartenant au fond 4 sert de butée arrière lors de l'introduction de la carte. A l'opposée de la butée arrière 8, l'étui possède une ouverture 9 pour l'introduction de la carte par glissement à l'intérieur de l'étui dans son propre plan. Pour faciliter l'introduction et l'extraction, le fond 4 comporte une échancrure 10 et le couvercle 5 une échancrure 11.A rear stop 8 (Figures 2, 3) belonging to the bottom 4 serves as a rear stop during the introduction of the card. Opposite the rear stop 8, the case has an opening 9 for the introduction of the card by sliding inside the case in its own plane. To facilitate the introduction and the extraction, the bottom 4 has a notch 10 and the cover 5 a notch 11.

Afin de pouvoir fixer d'une façon amovible l'étui sur le revers d'une veste par exemple, il est prévu une agrafe 12 (figures 1, 2, 4, 5) démontable du fond 4.In order to be able to removably fix the case on the reverse of a jacket for example, there is provided a staple 12 (FIGS. 1, 2, 4, 5) removable from the bottom 4.

L'extrémité supérieure de chaque côté latéral est muni, en surplomb du fond, d'un organe presseur élastique 13, 13a relié au côté latéral par un rebord rigide 14, 14a, une fente 15, 15a séparant le côté latéral de l'organe presseur 13, 13a. La figure 3 permet de bien voir l'organe presseur élastique 13a qui est moulé avec l'ensemble du fond 4 qui ne forme qu'une seule pièce.The upper end of each lateral side is provided, overhanging the bottom, with an elastic pressure member 13, 13a connected to the lateral side by a rigid rim 14, 14a, a slot 15, 15a separating the lateral side of the member presser 13, 13a. Figure 3 allows to see the elastic pressure member 13a which is molded with the entire bottom 4 which forms a single piece.

La surface plane du fond 4 porte en outre deux nervures supports 16 et 16a parallèles aux côtés latéraux 6 et 7 et situés respectivement près du presseur 13 et du presseur 13a, chaque nervure support coopérant avec l'organe presseur adjacent de manière à exercer une légère pression sur la carte glissée entre les nervures et les presseurs comme on le voit sur les figures 3 et 5. Ainsi, la carte 1 est maintenue dans l'étui, avec une légère force de pression, en position surélevée par rapport au fond 4 et également un peu au-dessous du couvercle transparent 5 comme le montre bien la figure 5.The flat surface of the bottom 4 further carries two support ribs 16 and 16a parallel to the lateral sides 6 and 7 and located respectively near the presser 13 and the presser 13a, each support rib cooperating with the adjacent presser member so as to exert a slight pressure on the card slid between the ribs and the pressers as seen in FIGS. 3 and 5. Thus, the card 1 is held in the case, with a slight pressure force, in the raised position relative to the bottom 4 and also a little below the transparent cover 5 as shown in Figure 5.

Les côtés latéraux 6 et 7 portent des trous 17 et 17a pour la fixation du couvercle 5 qui comporte des plots 18 et 18a de fixation.The lateral sides 6 and 7 have holes 17 and 17a for fixing the cover 5 which has studs 18 and 18a for fixing.

Sur la figure 3, le couvercle transparent 5 est représenté schématiquement en pointillé de même que la carte 1.In FIG. 3, the transparent cover 5 is shown diagrammatically in dotted lines, as is the card 1.

Ainsi, grâce à l'invention, les éventuelles pistes magnétiques de la carte, telles que 2 et 3 ou contacts de circuit électronique intégré, ne subissent aucun frottement lors des introductions et des extractions successives de la carte dans et hors de l'étui. En outre, la pression exercée par la carte entre les organes presseurs 13, 13a et les nervures supports 16, 16a évitent toute extraction involontaire de la carte hors de son étui.Thus, thanks to the invention, any magnetic tracks of the card, such as 2 and 3 or integrated electronic circuit contacts, do not undergo any friction during successive introductions and extractions of the card in and out of the case. In addition, the pressure exerted by the card between the pressing members 13, 13a and the support ribs 16, 16a prevent any involuntary extraction of the card from its case.

Afin d'éviter toute déformation de la carte à l'intérieur de son étui par flexion, le fond 4 comporte en outre une nervure entretoise 19 parallèle aux nervures supports 16, 16a et située entre elles deux, en dehors bien entendu des zones éventuelles de pistes magnétiques ou de contacts de la carte 1.In order to avoid any deformation of the card inside its case by bending, the bottom 4 further comprises a spacer rib 19 parallel to the support ribs 16, 16a and situated between them, of course outside any areas of magnetic strips or card contacts 1.

De la même façon, le couvercle 5 porte également une nervure entretoise 20.Likewise, the cover 5 also carries a spacer rib 20.

Pour assurer l'introduction sans heurt de la carte 1 dans l'étui, contre le rebord 14, 14a, le couvercle porte dans le prolongement avant et arrière des rebords 14, 14a du fond, des nervures 21 et 21a (voir figure 4).To ensure the smooth introduction of the card 1 into the case, against the rim 14, 14a, the cover carries in the front and rear extension of the re edges 14, 14a at the bottom, ribs 21 and 21a (see FIG. 4).

Enfin, pour la fixation de l'agrafe 12, elle comporte une languette 22 qui vient s'introduire dans une lumière d'introduction 23 réalisée dans le fond 4. Afin d'assurer la continuité de la nervure support 16a interrompue par la lumière 23, la languette 22 de l'agrafe 12 porte une nervure support 16b.Finally, for fixing the clip 12, it includes a tongue 22 which is introduced into an insertion lumen 23 made in the bottom 4. In order to ensure the continuity of the support rib 16a interrupted by the lumen 23 , the tongue 22 of the clip 12 carries a support rib 16b.

Par ailleurs, dans certains cas, il peut être utile de visualiser des informations ne figurant pas normalement sur la carte d'identification ou de les rendre plus visibles (par exemple marque de Société, dates...). Il est alors possible d'ajouter un porte étiquette dans une zone n'interférant pas avec les informations d'identification de la carte. Celui-ci est alors réalisé en matériau plastique transparent. Il comporte un logement pour l'étiquette et vient s'encliqueter dans des trous prévus à cet effet dans le couvercle 5, sans nuire à l'esthétique de l'ensemble.In addition, in certain cases, it may be useful to view information that does not normally appear on the identification card or to make it more visible (for example Company brand, dates, etc.). It is then possible to add a label holder in an area that does not interfere with the card's identification information. This is then made of transparent plastic material. It has a housing for the label and is snapped into holes provided for this purpose in the cover 5, without affecting the aesthetics of the assembly.

Dans certaines utilisations, l'ouverture de l'agrafe 12 peut s'avérer insuffisante (par exemple fixation sur un manteau). La figure 5 montre qu'une fente est réalisée dans la partie inférieure de l'agrafe 12. Cette fente est destinéeà laisser passer une lanière en matériau souple. Ceci permet de réaliser un accrochage efficace quelque soit le type d'utilisation, indépendamment un moyen d'agrafage initialement prévu.In certain uses, the opening of the clip 12 may prove to be insufficient (for example attachment to a coat). FIG. 5 shows that a slot is made in the lower part of the clip 12. This slot is intended to allow a strap made of flexible material to pass. This allows for effective hooking whatever the type of use, regardless of a stapling means initially provided.
