Description

RF Card Bending Test Device {THE TEST APPARATUS OF RF CARD}

The present invention is applied to transportation card and bank card identification of bus or subway, and it is applied to the device for testing the reliability of RF card by RF card reader installed through repeated bending of contactless, contact, contactless and contactless RF card with antenna. It is about.

In general, the repeated bending test of the RF card is a repeated test of the bending of the RF card because the contactless RF function is very important according to the circuit connection between the contactless, contactless, contactless RF card integrated IC or the attached Combi IC and antenna. RF card function with and without short circuit should be tested.

Therefore, the test should be repeated every 5 or 10 times during the repeated bending test, and check the presence of the function in a separate RF card reader, and repeat the test and repeat the process to continue the test. The result of a short circuit also had an error range for the period of repeated testing.

That is, the short circuit state of the circuit according to the number of times of firing can be identified by the installed RF card reader according to the predetermined test conditions for the RF card, so that consistency and precision can be given, and reliability can be given to the measurement data. This is to save a lot of time.

More specifically, a fixed chuck having a card insertion groove is fixedly installed at an appropriate interval in the apparatus main body, and the front of each fixed chuck is provided so as to face a movable chuck which is integrally connected through the connection.

The movable chuck is inserted between the fixed chuck and the movable chuck by repeatedly stretching the separation distance from the fixed chuck while performing a straight reciprocating motion through the rod-shaped rail using an operation link installed on the rotary cam installed on the rotating shaft of the drive motor. The card was repeatedly rolled to test its reliability.

Generally, there are general plastic card, bar code card, bar code card, visual card, RF card, RF card and smart card. It is selected and used according to the convenience and reliability of use together, and it stores and uses certain information and data inside the card.

In particular, the RF card is a non-contact operation, due to the ease of use and prompt processing, passenger fare in security areas or public transportation means to read the identity of the passenger, and purchase and payment at vending machines It has the advantage that it can be suitably employed in the treatment and the like.

Therefore, in recent years, all the transportation cards and pass cards combined with credit cards used for public transportation such as buses and subways adopt this RF card method, and the demand is increasing explosively. I will say that.

The RF card is a built-in IC and the antenna is connected by lead or electric welding or conductive adhesive, and the circuit and the IC connected to the circuit between the two sheets of PVC, and then configured by heat pressure fusion.

However, since the contact state of the circuit cannot be visually identified by the adhesion to the sheet in the state in which the circuit is embedded, and the circuit is finely connected, it is difficult to grasp the reliability, which is an important factor of the RF card. Even if the contact is hard even if the contact state is not good, the internal IC and antenna are short-circuited.

In order to prevent such a problem from occurring after being sold or transferred to the user, the RF card contact test is one of the processes that must be performed before shipping, and the conventional RF card test method is for the repeated bending test and the non-contact function test. Tested the function of the RF card by using it at the manufacturer's discretion or using the worker's hands by holding both ends of the card and repeatedly bending it to check the completeness of the adhesive.

This primitive test approach causes the following problems.

First, since the test is performed by the operator's supervision, it is difficult to maintain the consistency of the test conditions, so that a problem in which the card in which the defective connection of the actual circuit occurs is normally released is made.

Secondly, the test results are very different depending on the operator and the device, and when the inspection is performed, the bend angle is not accurate, which makes the test more difficult to perform, and the complexity of the procedure increases the worker's fatigue. have.

Therefore, the present invention was devised to solve and solve all the problems caused by the conventional card test method as described above.

The purpose of the present invention is to install the RF card reader with repeated bending according to the set number of times by using a mechanical device and to check the RF function during operation to test the durability and reliability by testing the durability and reliability in the test conditions. The present invention provides a radio frequency (RF) card bending test apparatus that can provide reliability to measurement data and prevent user fatigue and greatly reduce test time.

※ Unexplained code in the drawing ※

(C) is an RF card,

(J) shows the connection.

The present invention configured as described above can be installed in a plurality of rows in the interior of the apparatus main body 2 so as to test several cards (C) at the same time using a single test device as shown in the drawings, The movable chuck 40 is integrally bound using the connecting rod J so as to be movable at the same time.

By setting the test frequency on the counter 70, the rotation speed of the driving motor 50 is checked by the counter 70, and the rotation speed of the driving motor 50 is the operation frequency of the movable chuck 40 and the RF card (C). ) Is the number of bending tests.

Referring to Figures 1 to 3 attached to the operation of the RF card test apparatus 1 of the present invention having such a configuration as follows.

First, when the driving motor 50 is driven while the RF card C is inserted into the card insertion grooves 11 and 41 of the fixed chuck 10 and the movable chuck 40, the rotary cam of the driving motor 50 is rotated. The operating link 62 eccentrically placed on the 61 is reciprocated by the eccentricity of the fixed position

The movable chuck 40 is connected to the rail 20 to reciprocate in a straight line as shown in FIG. 2, thereby repeatedly increasing and decreasing the separation distance from the fixed chuck 10. The test operation is performed while repeatedly bending the RF card C sandwiched between the movable chucks 40 in the same direction.

The number of times of bending such as the counter 70 to check the number of revolutions of the drive motor 50 and

The RF card reader 71 is counted together with the function detection of the state of the RF card C. When the RF card C has no abnormality, continuous operation is performed at a set number of times.

That is, the RF card C is bent and unfolded every time the rotary cam 61 rotates, and when a signal is generated by the normal function of the RF card C, the RF card reader 71 reads the signal to the controller 72. Send the counter 70, which is operated by the control of the control unit 72, to increase the number of times to continue the driving motor 50.

In case of short circuit of IC and connection antenna, etc. embedded in RF card C, the test signal does not send an increase signal to control unit 72 and counter 70 when the RF card C is stopped. (50) It is also stopped in that state, and only the number of times the non-contact function is maintained in the counter 70 remains so that the test status of the RF card C can be grasped how many times the circuit is short-circuited.

As described in detail above, the present invention allows the RF card to be repeatedly bent using a mechanical device, and at the same time, the RF card reader is used to test the reliability of the function of the RF card. It is a useful design that can increase the reliability of the measurement data by providing a high efficiency, as well as reduce labor costs and greatly reduce the test time.
