Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a card processing device with increased added value.

Calculators in recent years have become ultra-thin and have added functions such as a clock function, making them more useful and portable. In addition, its thickness gradually becomes thinner and more flexible, starting from 0.5 mm.
They can now be made to a size of about 2mm, allowing them to be carried around with business cards, banknotes, etc.

On the other hand, the use of cashless cards is gradually becoming more common, and people begin to carry around a large number of cash cards, credit cards, etc., and as they become thicker, they become more difficult to carry around. Or, you may forget a necessary card and carry an unnecessary card by mistake.

You must also carry a train pass, etc. separately.

In view of the above-mentioned points, the present invention provides a card processing device that stores data from an input means provided on a card in a storage means, sends the data to an external device, and executes processing of the card. FIG. 1 shows a clock according to an embodiment used in the processing device of the present invention,
This is a perspective view of a card with an alarm, CD, where LC is a liquid crystal display, KB is a keyboard, and AL is an alarm, and has approximately the same thickness and flexibility as a cash card or credit card. In FIG. 2, the back side is provided with a code section M using magnetic ink or other well-known technology to identify the owner, similar to a cash card or credit card. This M part is the third
Head section of reading device R (processing device) as shown in the figure
It is decoded by RH, and at the same time information known only to the owner is given from the keyboard KB to the reading device R via terminals C1, C2, H1, H2, etc. This makes it possible to identify the card owner and prevent unauthorized use. If the reader R is set correctly, cash will be paid if it is a cash card. At this time, you can also input the payment amount using the keyboard KB. In addition, when using a credit card, the user can input the amount needed at that time from the keyboard KB and deduct it from the current deposit amount storage memory in the card CD, allowing the user to check the current amount at any time by operating the memory recall key. preferable. It can also be applied to commuter passes, employee badges, driver's licenses, etc. FIG. 4 shows an example of a cash card in which the section M shown in FIG. 2 is not specially provided and is configured to read display contents from a liquid crystal display LC. When the card CD is loaded into the reading device R of a cash dispensing machine at a bank, etc., and the user inputs the code such as the date of birth and other necessary key operations from the keyboard KB, the reading device R detects the insertion of the card or the key operation. Then turn on the lamp L and read the contents on the reflective or transmissive liquid crystal display LC. Further, the next key operation etc. will be notified by a well-known interactive display DSP or the like. The payment amount is entered using the key KB in the same manner as described above, and if the CPU shown in FIG. 5 certifies that various conditions are satisfied, the requested amount is paid. Also, at this time, the current payment amount is input from the deposit balance storage memory in the calculator circuit section CAL to terminals C1 and C.
2, H1, H2, etc., are deducted by the CPU. Therefore, the balance can be easily checked as described above, and if the withdrawal amount is over, the alarm AL is activated to warn you. This alarm may be activated when the subscription period approaches. In the case of a commuter pass, the card according to this embodiment is loaded into a reader at an automatic commuter issue office, the required amount is inserted into the currency reader, and the memory contents in the CAL are updated until the next validity period.

At this time, a specific encryption key operation is also performed. The card is inserted into the automatic commuter pass recognition device at the station, and once recognition is completed through simple keystrokes, the CPU opens the gate for a certain period of time and allows the user to pass. This usage can also be applied to identification cards and the like. According to the invention,
Since the data from the input means provided on the card is stored in the storage means and the data is sent to an external device to process the card, the processing time of the card processing device is shortened and the handling of the card processing device is made easier. The effect can be achieved quickly.
