Abstract
Description
L'objet de l'invention concerne un dispositif de contrôle de validité des cartes de crédit magnétiques. The object of the invention relates to a device for checking the validity of magnetic credit cards.
I1 est destiné à vérifier instantanément et en tout lieux 1' authenticité des cartes présentées pour un règlement quelconque à déceler les fraudes découlant de l'absence d'inscription magnétique sur une face. It is intended to check instantly and everywhere the authenticity of the cards presented for any payment to detect fraud arising from the absence of magnetic inscription on one side.
I1 est courant lorsqu'on essaye d'utiliser une carte ayant appartenue à un véritable titulaire de reproduire les noms et numéros portés sur une face généralement connus par les calques de contrôle qui n'ont pas été détruits. En ce cas, l'imitateur peut finalement reproduire la face connue, mais ne peut pas porter sur le verso le "code secret", c'est alors cette face vierge qui donnera la possibilité de contrôler le détournement. I1 is common when trying to use a card that belonged to a real holder to reproduce the names and numbers on one side generally known by the control layers which have not been destroyed. In this case, the imitator can finally reproduce the known side, but cannot carry on the back the "secret code", it is then this blank side which will give the possibility of controlling the diversion.
Le dispositif suivant l'invention permet le contrôle de 1 'absence d ' inscription portée sur une face de la carte de crédit. The device according to the invention allows the control of the absence of registration carried on one side of the credit card.
I1 est constitué par un ensemble constitué par un circuit électronique détecteur d'impressions magnétiques combine avec un élément positionneur utilisant la carte pour ouvrir ou fermer le circuit de mise sous tension signalisatrice,
Sur les dessins annexés, donnés à titre d 'exemple non limitatif d'une des formes de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention
La figure 1 montre vu en perspective et schématiquement l'appareil dans son ensemble.I1 is constituted by an assembly constituted by an electronic circuit detecting magnetic impressions combined with a positioner element using the card to open or close the signaling power-up circuit,
In the accompanying drawings, given by way of nonlimiting example of one of the embodiments of the subject of the invention
Figure 1 shows a perspective view and schematically the device as a whole.
La figure 2 est une vue de la face généralement non porteuse d'impressions mégnétiques dans les cartes reproduites en fraude
Le coffret 1, figure 1 en substance diéléctrique comporte sur sa face 2 une fente d ' introduction 3, et de positionnement dé la carte de crédit 4 à contrôler.FIG. 2 is a view of the face generally not carrying magnetic impressions in the cards reproduced fraudulently
The box 1, FIG. 1 in dielectric substance has on its face 2 an insertion slot 3, and for positioning the credit card 4 to be checked.
L'espace récepteur 5 constitue une surface de centrage avec contacts ouvrant 6 et fermant la mise sous tension A ce moment le signal 8 s'éclaire indiquant à l'opérateur que l'appareil fonctionne. The receiving space 5 constitutes a centering surface with contacts opening 6 and closing the power-up. At this moment the signal 8 lights up indicating to the operator that the device is operating.
Par contre, si le signal 9 relié au détecteur d'inscription magnétique 7 s'éclaire en vert par exemple, cela indiquera que la carte porte le code secret 10, 11 et qu'elle est authentique. On the other hand, if the signal 9 connected to the magnetic inscription detector 7 lights up in green for example, this will indicate that the card has the secret code 10, 11 and that it is authentic.
Si par exemple, elle ne s'éclaire pas c'est que la face 10 est vierge et que la carte est fausse. Il reste entendu que 11 insertion de la carte doit se faire dans le sens indiqué par la flèche de celle-ci. If, for example, it does not light up, it is because side 10 is blank and the card is false. It is understood that the insertion of the card must be done in the direction indicated by the arrow thereof.
Si l'opérateur l'introduit dans le sens inverse, la carte ne peut être lue, donc le signal 9 ne s'éclaire pas. If the operator inserts it in the opposite direction, the card cannot be read, so signal 9 does not light up.
Le circuit détecteur est de ceux qui sont généralement connues, mais constitue par son adaptation à sa fonction une application nouvelle d'un moyen connu. The detector circuit is one of those which are generally known, but constitutes by its adaptation to its function a new application of a known means.
L'énergie est préférentiellement fournie par piles ou accumulateurs intégrés afin de rendre le coffret 1 transportable alors l'alimentation par le secteur électrique, avec transformateur est utilisable en tous lieux. The energy is preferably supplied by integrated batteries or accumulators in order to make the box 1 transportable then the supply by the electric sector, with transformer is usable in all places.
Cet appareil évite la liaison des commerçants avec un terminal bancaire dont l'installation est parfois trop couteuse pour certaines entreprises. Par contre, il permet de déceler les fraudes les plus courantes. This device avoids the connection of traders with a bank terminal, the installation of which is sometimes too expensive for certain companies. However, it can detect the most common frauds.
Toutefois les formes, dimensions et dispositions des divers éléments pourront varier dans la limite des équivalents, comme d 'ailleurs les connexions de circuit détecteur et signalisateur, sans changer pour cela, la conception générale de 1 'invention qui vient d'être décrite. However, the shapes, dimensions and arrangements of the various elements may vary within the limit of equivalents, like the connections of the detector and signaling circuit, without changing the general design of the invention which has just been described.
