  The card case 30 includes a storage portion 34 that can store the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 in the card case main body 32, and a stopper that holds the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 stored in the storage portion 34 in the storage portion. 36, a strap attachment portion 38, and a finger hole 40.

-Card case body-
The card case body 32 has a rectangular flat plate shape as a whole, and has a structure in which the front surface side (front surface side) is transparent and the back surface side (back surface side) is opaque. The card case body 32 is configured by joining an opaque rear cover 42 and a transparent front cover 44.

  The rear cover 42 includes a rear cover body 42A and a spacer portion 42B integrally formed with the rear cover body 42A. The rear cover 42 is entirely opaque. Opaque means that it is not transparent, that is, it cannot be seen through. The rear cover 42 is, for example, resin-molded with a colored material to be opaque. Besides, it can be made opaque by painting. Further, it is also possible to make a resin-molded product of a transparent material into a frosted glass so as to be opaque.

  The rear cover body 42A is a member that constitutes the back surface of the card case 30, and has a rectangular flat plate shape as a whole.

  The spacer portion 42B maintains a constant gap between the rear cover body 42A and the front cover 44 when the rear cover 42 and the front cover 44 are joined. The spacer portion 42B is arranged along three sides (three sides except one long side) of the rear cover body 42A, and is arranged in a U shape as a whole. The inside of the spacer portion 42B constitutes the storage portion 34. The size corresponds to the size when the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 are stacked. In other words, the size is such that the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 that are overlapped can be stored with almost no space.

  The front cover 44 has a rectangular flat plate shape and is entirely transparent. The front cover 44 is resin-molded with a transparent resin material, for example. The front cover 44 is joined to the spacer portion 42B of the rear cover 42 and integrated with the rear cover 42.

  On the back surface of the front cover 44, pins 44A are arranged at regular intervals along the three sides joined to the spacer portion 42B. On the other hand, pin holes 42C are arranged on the surface of the spacer portion 42B at the same intervals as the pins 44A. The front cover 44 is positioned with respect to the rear cover 42 by fitting the pin 44A into the pin hole 42C, and is integrated with the rear cover 42.

  By integrating the front cover 44 and the rear cover 42, a space surrounded by the spacer portion 42B is formed between the front cover 44 and the rear cover main body 42A. This space is configured as the storage section 34.

  One side (one long side) of the storage portion 34 is open to the end surface of the card case body 32, and this opening portion is configured as an insertion opening 34A.

  The storage unit 34 is configured to have a size corresponding to the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 that are overlapped with each other, and can store the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 that are overlapped with each other with almost no space.

  Further, the storage portion 34 is configured by a front cover 44 having a transparent front surface side and a rear cover body 42A having an opaque rear surface side. As a result, the front side is transparent and the back side is opaque.

  A pair of arcuate notches 44B are arranged symmetrically on the side of the front cover 44 along the insertion opening 34A. Similarly, a pair of arcuate notches 42D are arranged symmetrically on the side of the rear cover body 42A along the insertion opening 34A. The cutout portions 42D and 44B are used as areas for picking the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 stored in the storage portion 34 with a finger.

-Stopper-
The stopper 36 is an example of a holding unit, and presses the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 stored in the storage unit 34 toward the inner wall surface of the storage unit 34 and holds the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 in the storage unit.

  The stopper 36 is arranged on one side of the storage section 34 parallel to the insertion direction of the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 into the storage section 34, and presses one end surface of the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 to push the ID card 10 and the masking card 20. The masking card 20 is held in the storage section. In the card case 30 of the present embodiment, the sides of the storage section 34 parallel to the insertion direction of the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 are a pair of short sides of the storage section 34. The stopper 36 is arranged on one short side and contacts the end surface of the short side on one side of the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 to hold the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 on the short side on the other side (spacer). It is pressed against the inner wall surface of the portion 42B.

  The stopper 36 is made of a disk-shaped elastic body (for example, urethane rubber). The stopper 36 is arranged in the spacer portion 42B, and a part of the outer periphery thereof is arranged so as to project from the inner wall surface of the spacer portion 42B. When the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 are inserted into the storage section 34 from the insertion opening 34A, the stopper 36 contacts the end surface of the short side on one side. Then, by the stopper 36, the stopper 36 is pressed toward the other short side and pressed against the inner wall surface of the spacer portion 42B. As a result, it is held in the storage portion.

  Here, the position where the stopper 36 is arranged is 1/2 from the bottom of the storage part 34 (the inner wall surface of the long side of the spacer part 42B), where H is the length from the insertion opening 34A of the storage part 34 to the bottom. * Set at a position more than H away. As a result, the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 stored in the storage section 34 can be effectively prevented from falling off.

  The closer the stopper 36 is located to the insertion opening 34A, the higher the drop-off preventing effect. On the other hand, the closer to the insertion opening 34A, the more difficult it is to take in and out the ID card 10 and the masking card 20. Therefore, in consideration of the ease of putting in and taking out and the difficulty of coming off, it is preferable to dispose it at a position apart from the bottom of the storage section 34 by 1/2 * H or more.

-Strap attachment part-
The strap attaching portion 38 is configured as a portion for attaching a strap (particularly a neck strap) to the card case 30.

  The strap attachment portion 38 is provided integrally with the rear cover 42 of the card case body 32. On the rear cover main body 42A of the rear cover 42, a strap attachment portion 38 is integrally provided at the center of the side along the insertion opening 34A of the storage portion 34. The strap attachment portion 38 is provided as a rectangular piece protruding from the rear cover body 42A. The strap attaching portion 38 is provided with a strap attaching hole 38A, and the strap is attached using the strap attaching hole 38A.

-Finger hole-
The finger hole 40 is a hole used for taking out the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 stored in the storage section 34. The finger hole 40 is formed as an opening in the rear cover body 42A of the card case body 32.

  The finger hole 40 is configured to have a size into which at least the tip of the index finger of an adult can be inserted. The finger hole 40 is formed so that the inserted fingertip can push out the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 stored in the storage portion 34 toward the insertion opening 34A. This makes it easy to remove the ID card 10 and the masking card 20.

  By the way, since the finger hole 40 is formed as an opening, when the ID card 10 is housed in the housing portion 34, the back surface of the ID card 10 is exposed through the finger hole 40. Therefore, the finger hole 40 is arranged at a position where the information written on the back surface of the ID card 10 stored in the storage portion 34, particularly the information related to the individual is not exposed, and has a size not exposing the information related to the individual. It is preferably formed.

  FIG. 11 is an explanatory diagram illustrating the arrangement of finger holes.

  As described above, the ID card 10 including the personal number card has the personal number 10k, the name 10l, the date of birth 10m, and the two-dimensional bar code 10n as personal information on the back surface. Therefore, it is preferable that the finger hole 40 is formed while avoiding the area where these pieces of information are described.

  In the card case 30 of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11, a finger hole 40 is formed at one lower right position of the card case 30.

《Action》
FIG. 12 is a diagram showing a usage pattern of the ID card case, showing a state in which the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 are housed in the card case 30. FIG. 1A is a front view showing a usage pattern of the ID card case 1, and FIG. 1B is a rear view showing a usage pattern of the ID card case 1.

  When the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 are stored in the card case 30, the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 are arranged in the storage portion in a stacked state.

  As shown in FIG. 12 (A), the masking card 20 is laid on the surface of the ID card 10, so that the masking portion 22 of the masking card 20 is the area other than the area in which the name 10a and the face photograph 10e are described. To be masked. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the information written on the surface of the ID card 10 from being exposed more than necessary.

  As shown in FIG. 12B, the back surface of the ID card 10 is covered with a rear cover main body 42A which is opaque. Thereby, the information written on the back surface of the ID card 10 can be blindfolded.

  Here, the rear cover main body 42A is provided with a finger hole 40, and a part of the ID card 10 is exposed from the finger hole 40. However, since the finger hole 40 is arranged at the position where the information related to the individual is not described, the information related to the individual is not exposed to the public.

  Further, the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 stored in the storage section 34 are held by the stopper 36. This can effectively prevent the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 from being accidentally dropped from the card case 30.

  Further, the content of the ID card 10 can be easily confirmed by removing it from the card case 30.

  As described above, according to the ID card case 1 of the present embodiment, since unnecessary information is not exposed, the ID card 10 can be used while appropriately protecting personal information.

  Further, in the ID card case 1 of the present embodiment, the ID card 10 is masked by the masking card 20, so that when changing the masked area, only the masking card 20 needs to be replaced. As a result, it is easy to use and can be operated economically. For example, by preparing a plurality of masking cards 20 having different areas to be masked by the mask section 22 and switching the masking card 20 to be used depending on the situation, the ID card 10 can be used by appropriately protecting personal information. it can.

<Modification of masking card>
In the masking card of the above-mentioned embodiment, the mask portion is formed so that all the areas except the area in which the information to be exposed is masked, but only the area in which the information to be masked is blindfolded. You may form a mask part like this.

  FIG. 13 is a diagram showing an example of a masking card in which a mask portion is formed only in an area in which information to be masked is written. It should be noted that FIG. 7A is an explanatory diagram for explaining a region to be masked in relation to the ID card. In the figure, the shaded area is the masking area. Further, FIG. 3B is a front view of the masking card in a state of being superposed on the front surface of the ID card.

  In the example shown in FIG. 13, the address 10b, the date of birth 10c, the gender 10d, the security code 10g, the sign panel area 10i, and the organ donation intention display field 10j are masked from among the plurality of information written on the surface of the ID card 10. The case is shown. In this case, the mask portion 22 is formed so as to cover the address 10b, the date of birth 10c, the sex 10d, the security code 10g, the sign panel area 10i, and the organ donation intention display field 10j.

  In this way, the mask portion 22 can be formed only in the region in which the information to be masked is written.

  Also, various forms can be adopted as a form for masking one described item. For example, when masking the name, only the name part may be masked. In this case, only the surname is visible. When masking the address, only the prefecture name may be made visible and all others may be masked. Further, when the birth date is masked, only the year of the date may be masked. As described above, the form of masking the described items can be appropriately selected according to the purpose and application.

  Further, although information other than information directly related to an individual is written on the ID card 10, such information can also be a target of masking. For example, in the case of an ID card composed of a personal number card, information (mark) 10x indicating that it is a personal number card is displayed on the surface of the card, but this information can also be masked. In addition to this, for example, in the case of an ID card issued by an organization such as a company or school, the information of the issuing organization (name of the company, school, group, etc. that issued the ID card) can be targeted for the information to be masked. . Further, when a certificate of various qualifications (for example, a driver's license) or a certificate is used as an ID card, the name of the qualification or the like can be targeted for masking.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the mask portion 22 is formed on the transparent substrate 20A to form the masking card 20, but the form of the masking card 20 is not limited to this. For example, a masking card may be formed by forming an opening serving as a window in an opaque substrate. In this case, the window is formed at a position where information is exposed. For example, when the name and the face photograph are exposed, the area corresponding to the name and the face photograph is cut out to form an opening, which is used as a window portion. With this, when overlapping the ID card, the area other than the name and the face photograph can be masked with the masking card.

  The mask portion 22 may be formed by a method other than printing. For example, a sticker having a light-shielding name may be attached and formed. Alternatively, the portion to be masked may be formed by processing it into frosted glass.

[Second Embodiment]
The ID card 10 can be used as an ID card unique to the issuing agency by writing the information certified by the issuing agency in the mask portion 22 of the masking card 20. In the following, an example of using the ID card 10 as an employee ID card of a specific company will be described.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram showing an example of a masking card when used as an employee ID card of a specific company. 1A is a front view of the masking card, and FIG. 1B is a back view of the masking card.

  When the ID card 10 is used as an employee ID card of a particular company, the masking part 20 of the masking card 20 is provided with information that the company certifies.

  In the example shown in FIG. 14, as the information certified by the company that is the issuing organization, the company name 22a, the telephone number 22b, the owner's department 22c, and the employee number 22d are described.

  FIG. 15 is a front view of the masking card in a state of being overlaid on the ID card.

  As shown in FIG. 15, when the masking card 20 is placed on the surface of the ID card 10, the first window portion 24a is placed in the area where the name 10a is written, and the second window portion 24b is written in the portrait 10e. Placed in the area. Thereby, the name 10a and the face photograph 10e described on the ID card 10 can be visually recognized through the first window portion 24a and the second window portion 24b.

  On the other hand, information other than the name 10a and the face photograph 10e written on the surface of the ID card 10 is masked by the mask unit 22 and is not visible.

  Since the mask unit 22 contains the information certified by the issuing agency, if the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 are stored in the card case in this state, the name 10a, the face photograph 10e, the company name 22a, and the telephone number. The ID card 22b, the department 22c, and the employee number 22d can be used as ID cards displayed on the surface.

  In this way, by writing the information unique to the issuing agency in the mask portion 22 of the masking card 20, the ID card case 1 can be used as an ID card unique to the issuing agency by using the ID card 10 issued by another agency. .

  In this case, when the items to be written on the masking card 20 are changed (for example, the department to which the user belongs is changed), the masking card 20 only needs to be replaced, so that economical operation can be performed.

  Further, since the masking card 20 can be printed using a commercially available card printer, the masking card 20 can be easily issued.

<Modification of masking card>
When the ID card 10 is used as an original ID card by writing information unique to the issuing agency on the masking card 20, it is preferable that the masking card 20 be equipped with various security technologies.

  As the security technology, for example, (1) printing using a special ink, (2) printing using micro-characters, (3) printing or sticking of holograms can be considered.

(1) Printing using special ink Concealed characters are printed on the surface of the masking card 20 with black light (ultraviolet) compatible fluorescent ink. As a result, authenticity can be determined by simply holding the ultraviolet light source. In particular, it is possible to make a judgment even in a dark place such as a power failure or in a dark scene.

  In addition, a predetermined authentication character is printed on the surface of the masking card 20 using an ink (so-called pearl ink) whose color appears to change depending on the angle. This makes it impossible to reproduce by color copying.

(2) Printing using micro characters Micro characters are printed on the surface of the masking card 20. This makes it impossible to perform normal label printing and reproduction with a copying machine.

(3) Printing or Pasting Hologram The hologram is printed or pasted on the surface of the masking card 20. This makes it possible to easily determine the authenticity.

  These security techniques can be used alone or in combination. When used in combination, security can be further enhanced.

  Further, by printing a predetermined caution on the mask portion 22 on the back surface of the masking card 20, it is possible to call attention to the use or acquisition.

  FIG. 16 is a diagram showing an example of a masking card equipped with security technology. 1A is a front view of the masking card, and FIG. 1B is a back view of the masking card.

  16A and 16B are a front view and a back view showing an example of a masking card equipped with a security technique.

  The masking card 20 of this example is a masking card having (1) printing using a special ink, (2) printing using micro characters, and (3) pasting a hologram as security measures.

  As shown in FIG. 16 (A), the masking card 20 has a character string 22e of “FFIS Co., Ltd.” printed on the mask portion 22 with black light compatible fluorescent ink as printing using a special ink. There is. Further, the character string 22f of "FFIS Co., Ltd." is printed with so-called pearl ink.

  Further, as the printing using the micro characters, the character string 22g of "FFIS" is printed on the mask portion 22 with the micro characters.

  Further, a hologram 22h is attached to the mask portion 22.

  On the back surface of the masking card 20, precautions 22i are printed as shown in FIG.

  In this way, by mounting various security technologies on the masking card 20, the security of the masking card 20 can be improved.

  Regarding the security technology, it is preferable to install the security technology in the card case 30 as well. For example, a hologram may be attached to the card case 30. This can further enhance security.

[Third Embodiment]
In the above embodiment, the personal number card is used as the ID card, but the ID card usable in the present invention is not limited to this. For example, an ID card issued by a public institution such as a driver's license, a health insurance card, or a resident registry card, or an ID card uniquely issued by a company, group, school (employee ID, student ID, etc.) is used as an ID card. Can be used.

  FIG. 17 is a diagram showing an example of a masking card when a driver's license is used as an ID card. The same (A) shows the front view of the driver's license. Further, FIG. 3B shows an example of a masked area. Further, FIG. 3C shows a front view of the masking card.

  As shown in FIG. 17A, the name 110a, the address 110b, the date of birth 110c, the face photograph 110d, and the like are written on the surface of the ID card 110 composed of a driver's license, as personal information. There is.

  When such a driver's license is used as the ID card 110 and only the name 110a and the face photograph 110d are exposed, as shown in FIG. 17B, the region in which the name 110a is described and the face photograph 110d are displayed. Mask the entire surface of the driver's license, except where noted.

  In this case, as shown in FIG. 17 (C), the masking card 20 has a transparent window portion in the area corresponding to the area in which the name is written and the area corresponding to the area in which the face photograph is written. It is formed. The window portion formed in the area corresponding to the area where the name is written is referred to as a first window portion 24a, and the window portion formed in the area corresponding to the area where the face photograph is described is referred to as a second window portion 24b. As shown in FIG. 17C, when the masking card 20 is placed on the surface of the ID card 110, the name 110a and the face photograph 110d can be visually recognized through the first window portion 24a and the second window portion 24b. Become. On the other hand, the information other than the name 110a and the face photograph 110d is masked by the mask unit 22 and is not visible.

  Note that the example shown in FIG. 17C shows an example in which the information certified by the issuing agency is described in the mask section 22 of the masking card 20. In this way, by writing (printing) the information unique to the issuing agency in the mask portion 22, it can be used as an ID card unique to the issuing agency using a driver's license.

[Fourth Embodiment]
In the present embodiment, a case will be described in which an employee ID card issued by a company is used as an ID card.

  FIG. 18 is a diagram showing an example of a masking card when the employee ID card is used as an ID card. The same (A) shows the front view of the employee ID card. Further, FIG. 3B shows a front view of the masking card. Further, FIG. 3C shows a front view of the masking card in a state of being superimposed on the employee ID card.

  As shown in FIG. 18A, the ID card 210, which is an employee ID card, has a personal name 210a, an employee number 210b, a date of birth 210c, a gender 210d, and a facial photograph 210e as personal information. And

  As shown in FIG. 18B, in the masking card 20, the mask portion 22 is arranged so as to mask the date of birth 210c and the gender 210d described on the ID card 210. As a result, when the masking card 20 is placed on the surface of the ID card 210, as shown in FIG. 18C, the birth date 210c and the gender 210d described on the ID card 210 are displayed on the mask portion 22 of the masking card 20. To be masked.

  In the masking card 20 of this example, information not written on the ID card 210 is further written on the mask portion 22. Here, information on the department to which the user belongs is printed. As a result, if the department to which the employee belongs changes, only the masking card needs to be changed, which enables economical operation.

  As described above, the ID card is not limited to one issued by a public institution, and one issued by various organizations (for example, a company, a school, etc.) can be used.

[Other forms of card case]
The specific configuration of the card case is not particularly limited as long as it can accommodate the ID card and the masking card in a stacked manner.

  FIG. 19 is a front view showing another embodiment of the card case.

  The card case 30 of the present embodiment is a card case in which the short side of the storage portion 34 is opened as an insertion opening 34A. In this case, the ID card and the masking card are vertically stored in the card case 30. That is, it is stored along the longitudinal direction.

  In this case, too, the finger hole 40 is arranged at a position where the personal information written on the back surface of the ID card stored in the storage section 34 is not exposed.

  Further, the stopper 36 is also preferably arranged at a position separated from the bottom of the storage portion 34 by 1/2 * H or more.

  In addition, as the card case, a structure in which two sheets are stacked in a bag shape may be used (so-called soft type card case).

  Further, in the above embodiment, the back surface of the storage portion 34 of the card case 30 is opaque, but it may be transparent. In particular, when using an ID card in which personal information to be protected is not written on the back surface, the back surface of the storage section 34 may be transparent.

  When using the card case 30 whose back surface of the storage section 34 is transparent, the back surface of the ID card 10 may be masked with a masking card for the back surface. In this case, the masking card for the back surface may mask the entire back surface of the ID card, or may mask only the portion where the mask is required. Further, in this case, the storage portion 34 of the card case 30 is also configured to be able to store the masking card for the back surface.

[Other forms of holding means]
In the card case 30 of the above-mentioned embodiment, the stopper 36 is used as the holding means, but the structure of the holding means is not limited to this.

  FIG. 20 is a front view of a card case that employs another holding means. 21 is a sectional view taken along line 21-21 of FIG.

  The holding unit of this example is configured as a pressing unit 46 that presses the back surface of the ID card stored in the storage unit 34. The pressing portions 46 are provided at two locations on the rear cover 42 and are integrally provided on the rear cover body 42A.

  The pressing portion 46 includes a leaf spring portion 46A and a contact portion 46B. The leaf spring portion 46A has a base end portion connected to the rear cover body 42A and is integrated with the rear cover body 42A. The leaf spring portion 46A is elastically deformable in the thickness direction of the card case 30 with the base end portion as a fulcrum. The contact portion 46B is provided as a bulge portion at the tip of the leaf spring portion 46A. The contact portion 46B is provided so as to bulge in an arc shape toward the inside of the card case 30.

  The operation of the pressing portion 46 configured as above is as follows. The contact portion 46 </ b> B provided on the pressing portion 46 bulges inside the card case 30. Therefore, when the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 are stored in the storage portion 34, the contact portion 46B contacts the back surface of the ID card 10. The contact portion 46B that contacts the back surface of the ID card 10 presses the ID card 10 toward the front cover 44. As a result, the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 are sandwiched between the front cover 44 and the contact portion 46B and held in the storage portion.

  As described above, the holding means may have a configuration capable of holding the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 stored in the storage portion 34 in the storage portion 34.

  In addition, the card case 30 may be provided with a lid at the insertion port 34A to prevent the ID card 10 and the masking card 20 from falling off.

[Other Embodiments of Masking Card]
FIG. 22 is a front view showing another embodiment of the masking card. As shown in the figure, the masking card 300 of this example is a foldable masking card, and includes a front surface card portion 312 that masks the front surface of the ID card, a back surface card portion 314 that masks the back surface of the ID card, and a front surface. The card portion 312 and the back card portion 314 are joined together in a foldable manner, and a joining portion 316 is provided.

  Both the front card section 312 and the back card section 314 have the same card shape as the ID card. The joining portion 316 has a width corresponding to the thickness of the ID card, and joins the bottom portions of the front card portion 312 and the back card portion 314.

  In the masking card 300, when the front surface card portion 312 and the rear surface card portion 314 are folded through the joining portion 316, the front surface card portion 312 is placed on the rear surface card portion 314 in an overlapping manner. At this time, a fixed gap is formed between the back card portion 314 and the front card portion 312, and the ID card is sandwiched in this gap.

  The masking card 300 is entirely made of a transparent substrate made of plastic (for example, polyvinyl chloride). The front surface card portion 312 is formed with a front surface mask portion 318 that masks the front surface of the ID card, and the back surface card portion 314 is formed with a back surface mask portion 320 that masks the back surface of the ID card. The front surface mask portion 318 and the back surface mask portion 320 are formed corresponding to the masking area.

  The example shown in FIG. 22 shows a case where an ID card composed of a personal number card is masked except for the name and face photograph written on the card surface. The colored area is the area to be masked.

  In this case, the front surface mask portion 318 has a front surface mask portion 318 so that when the front surface card portion 312 is overlaid on the front surface of the ID card, areas other than the name and the face photograph written on the ID card are masked. It is formed.

  On the other hand, the backside card section 314 is formed with a backside mask section 320 so that the entire backside of the ID card is masked. The front surface mask portion 318 and the back surface mask portion 320 are formed by printing, for example.

  FIG. 23 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the operation of the masking card. The figure (A) has shown the state before folding of the masking card 300, and the figure (B) has shown the state after folding of the masking card 300.

  As shown in FIG. 23 (A), the ID card 10 is placed on the back card portion 314 of the masking card 300 so as to be overlapped. When the front card portion 312 is folded in this state, as shown in FIG. 23B, the front card portion 312 is superposed on the front surface of the ID card 10, and the ID card is placed between the back card portion 314 and the front card portion 312. 10 is sandwiched.

  The entire back surface of the ID card 10 sandwiched between the back card portion 314 and the front card portion 312 is masked by the back mask portion 320 provided in the back card portion 314. Thereby, the information written on the back surface can be masked. On the other hand, the information written on the front surface of the ID card 10 is partially masked by the front surface mask section 318 provided in the front card section 312. That is, information other than the name and face photograph is masked. As a result, it is possible to prevent unnecessary information from being exposed.

  FIG. 24 is an explanatory diagram illustrating a usage pattern of the masking card, and shows a state in which the ID card 10 and the masking card 300 are housed in the card case 400. The figure (A) is a front view, and the figure (B) is a rear view.

  Here, an example in which a so-called soft type card case is used as the card case 400 is shown.

  The card case 400 has a rectangular flat bag shape with one side open and is flexible. The card case 400 is configured by stacking two transparent transparent sheets and joining the three sides thereof. In the card case 400 thus configured, the storage portion 402 is formed between two sheets. Then, one side of the storage section 402 is formed as an opening 402A.

  The ID card 10 is housed in the card case 400 while being sandwiched between the front card portion 312 and the back card portion 314 of the masking card 300.

  As shown in FIG. 24A, the front surface of the ID card 10 housed in the card case 400 is covered with the front surface card portion 312. As a result, the information written on the front surface is partially masked by the front mask portion 318 provided in the front card portion 312. Specifically, information other than the name and face photograph is masked.

  In addition, the back surface of the ID card 10 housed in the card case 400 is covered with the back card portion 314, as shown in FIG. As a result, the information written on the back side is entirely masked by the back side mask section 320 provided in the back side card section 314.

  As described above, the masking card may have a foldable structure. Thereby, the information written on both sides of the ID card can be appropriately masked.

  In this example, the masking card is foldable so that the front and back of the ID card can be masked. However, the front and back of the ID card can be masked by independent masking cards. In this case, the masking card for masking the back surface side of the ID card may be configured to mask the entire back surface of the ID card, or may be configured to partially mask the back surface.
