Definitions
- the invention relates to a contact protection arrangement for a card reader.
- a particularly vulnerable location for spying on foreign card information is the built-in card reader in a terminal.
- Card readers the reading contacts are accessible and must also be accessible to make any contact with the card to be inserted.
- Such card readers generally have a housing into which a smart card, SIM card or other card can be inserted to come in electrical contact with contact elements which protrude with their contact ends in a card slot formed by the housing and either in one Upper part or a lower part of the housing are attached.
- Recording slot can be introduced.
- the invention is therefore based on the object to overcome the aforementioned disadvantages and to provide a card reader, which is easy to manufacture and efficient
- the basic idea of the present invention is to provide a contact protection arrangement which directly protects the reading contacts of a contact carrier and which is designed in such a way that it can be actuated from a first to a second position while permanently protecting the contacts. This is realized in particular by the fact that breakthroughs in the
- Contact protection arrangement for penetrating the contacts are provided so that only the upper part of the contact tip protrudes through the openings and a lateral
- a card reader comprising a contact carrier with a contact carrier section carrying a plurality of contacts, which has a recessed depression in the contact carrier via a peripheral step, wherein the recessed remote
- Contact carrier portion has a substantially flat surface and having a plurality of recesses for the contacts, wherein further above the contact carrier portion a movable up and down contact protection arrangement consisting of a flat plate with openings for penetrating the contact tips of the contacts is arranged on laterally projecting holding portions has, with which the contact protection arrangement is mounted against a retaining bearing in the contact carrier.
- the plurality of contacts are each held on one side in the contact carrier with a holding portion or fixed and are further preferably encapsulated. It is further contemplated that adjoins the holding portion having a contact tip having spring arm, wherein the respective contact is so movably mounted in the contact carrier with its spring arm, that only the contact with its top of the
- Contact protection arrangement or generally protrudes over the top of the contact protection arrangement, but not the bottom of the contact.
- Breakthroughs protrudes through in the contact protection arrangement and protrudes in the up and down movement of the contact protection arrangement only the top of the contact on the top of the plate of the contact protection arrangement.
- Contact protection arrangement protrudes beyond the top of the plate, but not the bottom of the contact in these positions.
- the contacts with their Federarmabites at least partially protrude through the openings of the contact protection arrangement, so that the contact points are above the top of the plate.
- Edge portion rests on the respective opening of the contact protection arrangement on the upper side of the Federarmabitese and preferably slides along these.
- the width of the contacts in particular the width of the contacts in the region of
- Breakthroughs, d. H. along the spring arms about 91% to 99%, or more preferably the width of the contacts in the region of the apertures is about 95% to 99% of the width of the apertures, so that only a minimal gap between the side edges of the
- Card contact means this means that, for example, even with the thinnest wires can not be passed between or under the contacts.
- Contact protection arrangement preferably a plurality of juxtaposed holding portions engage under this projection or store from below against the projection. It is provided in particular that the preferably a plurality of holding sections as
- Support arms are formed with laterally projecting bearing portions with an upper bearing surface, which abut against the underside of the projection, as soon as the
- Contact protection arrangement is in its upper position.
- the upper position in which abut the bearing portions of the retaining arms against the underside of the projection, is in particular and preferably achieved in that the spring force of the reading contacts is used to hold the contact protection arrangement in its upper position spring force.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a card reader according to the invention with a non-mounted contact protection arrangement.
- Fig. 2 is a sectional view of Fig. 1, in which the contact protection arrangement is located above the card reader;
- Fig. 3 is a side view of the card reader of FIG. 1 with mounted
- Fig. 4 is a sectional view through the Fig. 3;
- Fig. 5 is a plan view of the card reader of FIG. 3;
- Figure 6 is a side view similar to Figure 3, in which the contact protection arrangement is in a lower position.
- Fig. 7 is a sectional view similar to Fig. 4, with the contact protection assembly in a lower position;
- Fig. 8 is a plan view of the card reader similar to FIG. 5, in which the
- the card reader 1 has a contact carrier 0.
- the contact carrier 10 has a plurality of contacts 20, hereinafter also called read contacts 20.
- the reading contacts 20 are arranged in a contact carrier section 11.
- the contact carrier portion 1 1 is formed as a recessed via a peripheral step 12 recess 13 in the contact carrier 10.
- the recessed contact carrier section 11 has a substantially flat surface 14 onto which the underside of which is to be described in greater detail
- Contact protection assembly 30 in its lower position, as shown in Fig. 7, can support.
- the contact carrier section 11 will be described in more detail below.
- the contact carrier portion 1 1 is formed as a recessed via a peripheral step 12 recess 13 in the contact carrier 10 and forms a receiving space for the
- Contact protection arrangement 30 In the contact carrier portion 11 a plurality of recesses 15 are provided, in which contacts 20 are attached. The contacts 20 are with their
- Holding portion 22 in the contact carrier 10 and that secured in the contact carrier portion 11. Of the holding portion 22 protrudes a spring arm 24 from the recesses 15 of the contact carrier portion 1 1 out.
- the spring arm portion 24 is, as shown in the figures, a bent Federarmabites 24, which forms a contact tip 23 at its uppermost point.
- the spring arm portion 24 can be resiliently actuated from the position as shown in Figs. 3 and 4 to the position shown in Figs. 6 and 7. Ie. the spring arms can be moved around their holding portion 22 up and down.
- the contact protection arrangement 30 Further, as in FIGS. 1 and 2, in the not yet assembled state, the form and configuration of the contact protection arrangement 30 according to the invention are clear according to the invention
- the contact protection arrangement 30 consists of a substantially flat, preferably as shown, rectangular plate 31, which has a shape that it can be embedded in the stepped recess 13 in the contact carrier portion 11.
- the plate 31 has openings 32 for the contacts 20.
- the contact protection arrangement 30 further has holding portions 33, which extend downwardly from the plate 31 away.
- the holding portions 33 protruding along the front and rear side edges 35 from the plate 31 are formed as follows.
- the holding portions 33 have a downwardly projecting support arm 33a, on which laterally projecting bearing portions 33b are located, the bearing portions 33b are formed with an upper flat bearing surface 33c, which project beyond the projection of the side edges 35 and thus against the bottom 16a (as in the upper position shown in FIG. 4) as soon as the contact protection arrangement 30 is in this position.
- Holding portions and in particular the laterally projecting bearing portions 33b are mounted with their bearing surface 33c against the retaining bearings 16, in particular against the bottom 16a of the retaining bearing 16 in the contact carrier. In this upper position the
- Contact protection arrangement 30 ensures that, on the one hand, the contact protection arrangement 30 is securely held and supported and, on the other hand, only the contact projections 23 of the contacts 20 protrude out of the contact protection arrangement 30, specifically as shown in FIG. 3, with their contact tips over the top 34 of the panel 31 protruding.
- the underside of the contacts 20, in particular also the underside of the contacts 20 in the region of the contact tip 23 are in the upper position within or below the upper side 34 of the contact protection arrangement 30.
- Breakthroughs 32 is thus made possible under the contacts 20.
- the contact protection arrangement 30 can be actuated from its upper position shown in FIGS. 3 to 5 into a lower position as shown in FIGS. 6, 7 and 8. Since in the upper position of the contact protection arrangement 30 this protrudes beyond the top of the contact carrier 10 in the area outside the contact carrier portion 1 1, when inserting a card in the card receiving space, the front card edge on the inclined ramp 37 (as shown in Fig. 3) accumulate and the contact protection assembly 30 against the spring force of the contacts 20 move downwards and down until the top 34 of the contact protection arrangement 30 level with the top of the contact carrier 10 outside the contact carrier portion 1 1, as can be clearly seen in Fig. 6.
- the contacts 20 are actuated together with the contact protection arrangement 30 down to the lower position U. This is accomplished by the edge portions 35 abut in the region of the openings 32 for the contacts 20 at the top of the contacts 20 and interact with the contacts when actuated.
- the edge sections 35 slide along the upper side 25 of the spring arm section 24.
- the control cam provided for actuating the contact protection arrangement 30 is accomplished via the aforementioned inclined ramp 37, which is arranged on the front side along the aforementioned edge 35.
- the apertures 32 are each completely closed by the contacts 20, so that lateral penetration into the apertures 32 is not possible.
- the width of the contacts 20 in this area is about 91% to 99%, more preferably about 95% to 99% of the width of the openings, so that the contacts 20 abut positively against the edges of the openings 32, so to speak or along this with the formation of a minimum gap up and down are actuated.
- Contact protection arrangement 30 also only the contact tips 23 of the contacts 20 from the top 34 of the contact protection arrangement 30 protrude.
