  • In particular, the present invention refers to a device for supplying plastic cards adapted to supply the card by withdrawing it from at least two different stacks of cards; the invention further refers to a device for handling plastic cards comprising said supplying device.
  • Devices for supplying plastic cards are known in the art, for example cards of the CR 80 format or cards according to ISO 7810 standard, for a device for handling the cards such as a printer, for example a laser printer, or other types of devices, such as a device for magnetically writing or encoding a chip or a magnetic band of the card, which allow withdrawing a card from at least two different stacks of cards to supply it inside the handling device to perform a working of the card, for example a laser printing or the magnetic writing of the chip or of the magnetic band of the card.
  • Such suppying devices can be used both inside the device for handling the cards or connected thereto, and outside it in a supply line upstream of the device, to withdraw the card from at least two different stacks of cards and supply the card inside the handling device.
  • The known devices for supplying plastic cards which allow supplying the card for a card handling device by withdrawing it from at least two different stacks of cards, every stack contained in a different container, provide that the card can be withdrawn from one of the two stacks of cards and is exited from two different mouths, one for every stack of cards, thereby allowing to perform the supply of the card, withdrawn from the desired stack of cards, inside the handling device.
  • These known devices for supplying plastic cards however are not satisfactory, and have the problem that, when it is necessary to end the withdrawal of the card from a stack and withdraw a card from the other stack, a card of the first stack can be dragged from the previously withdrawn card and remain blocked in the mouth, clogging it and blocking the operation of the device.
