2. Description of the Related Art Hard magnetic cards having a thickness of about 0.7 mm, which are widely used as credit cards, etc., and magnetic cards having a thickness of about 0.7 mm, which are widely used as telephone cards and other prepaid cards.
There is a 0.2 mm soft card. Since each card has a different purpose, it is used for a dedicated magnetic card reader. For a thin card only, a card insertion slot is made thin and a thick card is used. I try not to enter. However, for a thick card, the measure cannot be taken and a separate card is used.
Card discriminating means is provided at the card insertion slot. This means determines the card thickness mechanically. The magnetic head determines whether a magnetic signal is present on a predetermined track. With regard to (1), the mechanical structure becomes complicated and the cost increases.
With regard to (3), it was impossible to determine when magnetic data existed at the same track position. Furthermore, even if the card thickness can be detected and the card having no predetermined thickness is ejected from the insertion slot, if there is no structure for preventing the card from being inserted into the carder body, the card is taken in. There was a risk.
