Definitions

  • the invention relates to the encoding of magnetic stripes on credit, debit and other planar identification cards, tags and the like, formed as coplanar scored portions of larger integral printed sheet products.
  • Cards Credit, debit and other similar (e.g. so-called store) identification cards, identification tags and like planar identification elements are typically fabricated in bulk with multiple elements being formed together in planar cut sheets or planar continuous webs.
  • the great majority of such elements are cards that are made to and typically encoded to industry recognized standards: CR80 and ISO/IEC 7810 and 7811. All are incorporated by reference herein.
  • the magnetic stripe extends entirely across the major dimension (82.55 mm or 3 and 1 A inches) of the card, along one long edge of the card between the opposing narrow edges of the card. Since cards made to such standards predominate, most card manufacturing equipment is made to handle cards conforming to those standards.
  • cards are printed and then scored in bulk to remove individual cards from the cut sheets or web in which they are printed and assembled. Individual cards are then magnetically encoded (and often but not necessarily embossed) and the encoding verified before the card is released for distribution.
  • Commercially available magnetic card encoders are therefore designed to handle cards made and encoded to CR80 and ISO/IEC 7810 and 7811 specifications.
  • the card can be combined in the product with other individual bnfiiliaiidSetenieirCIlftiiiii ⁇ Ihother card and/or one or more smaller tags.
  • a waste portion of the sheet product is often provided merely to hold the identification elements together.
  • the card (or tag) is scored in the larger printed sheet product. Scoring involves cutting into and typically through the larger printed sheet product material all around the card except for some narrow bridges of material left between score lines to removably secure the card to the remaining portion of the larger printed sheet product.
  • the remaining portion may be provided with a separate hole spaced from the card which permits the card (and/or other planar identification element(s)) to be hung with the remaining portion of the larger sheet product like a tag from a hook or the like.
  • Equipment to magnetically encode CR80-ISO/IEC 7810/7811 standard cards on and/or read such encoded data from the magnetic strip of the card can be obtained from any of a variety 0 of domestic and foreign manufacturers, including, but not limited to, for example, Axiohm

Abstract

Selon l'invention, un élément d'identification en plastique imprimé plan est formé de manière monolithique dans un produit en feuille plan imprimé de plus grande taille à bande magnétique par rainage de sorte qu'une partie bande magnétique sur l'élément soit située entre une première et une seconde partie bande magnétique de rebut sur chaque côté de l'élément. Le procédé de l'invention consiste à contourner la première partie de rebut lors du codage de la partie bande magnétique de l'élément, puis au moins à supprimer, sur la seconde partie de rebut, tout codage risquant d'interférer avec la lecture des données codées sur la partie bande magnétique de l'élément lorsqu'un côté ou l'autre du produit est glissé à travers un lecteur de bande magnétique.
