The present invention relates to a built-in MP3 player slot for traffic cards, and more particularly, to a card for MP3 player for general purpose slots, which can accommodate cards of various sizes and operate by inserting cards used for different purposes. It is about a slot.

T-money is a smart card with integrated IC chip, which allows you to ride buses and subways with a single T-money, pay taxi and parking fees, and collect mileage.

As transportation cards such as T-money are becoming more common, various additional services using the transportation cards have been proposed one after another. Seoul, for example, offers transfer discounts for passengers using transportation cards, as well as allowing them to earn and redeem miles through partnerships with various point service providers. It also enables the use of cash receipts and cards through the transportation card. In this way, the uses of MP3 players are diversified and various. As a result, cards inserted into MP3 players are diversified and slots are required to accommodate them.

The IC card adopted as the above transportation card has a contact IC card in which contacts with a reader and a writer for reading and recording IC chip information are exposed on the surface of the card, and an antenna coil and an IC chip are built-in. It can be divided into a non-contact IC card that can read and rewrite IC chip information by induction current induced in the coil as the card passes, and a combination IC card that supports both contact and non-contact types.

In general, since a traffic card employs a contactless IC card, a general customer who does not have a reader and a writer on the contactless IC card cannot access the traffic card.

Accordingly, in order to charge a transportation card, a customer must visit a charging station equipped with a transportation card charging terminal or an automatic teller machine (ATM) equipped with a transportation card charging function. In addition, as electronic payment using a transportation card is proposed, when a customer uses electronic commerce, if the amount of money charged in the transportation card is less than the amount of payment, he / she should visit the charging station directly. In this way, they had to receive a traffic card and visit the charging station again. As described above, the transportation card enables convenient use of public transportation and enjoyment of various additional services, while the charging method has a very troublesome problem.

In addition, the card used in the MP3 player is diversified, there is a problem that the slot of the MP3 player is not enough.

Therefore, the present invention, which was devised to solve the above-described problems, it is possible to pay for the transportation fee, to check the information of the transportation card, to check the balance management or unfair charges, etc. T money service server through the PC In the traffic card built-in MP3 player that charges the transportation card without a separate charging means by connecting to, credit card payment, linked electronic money conversion, bank account transfer, etc.,

The purpose is to provide a MP3 player slot that can accommodate a variety of cards by mounting a universal slot.

In accordance with an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a traffic card-embedded MP3 player slot in a traffic card-embedded MP3 player slot. And guide layer for guiding the second card to the upper layer by making a layer of the slot to the lower layer; Upper connecting pin for inserting the card guided to the upper layer by the guide portion; And a lower connection pin inserted into the center portion of the slot and coupled to one of the first and third cards inserted directly without passing through the guide portion.

The first card is characterized in that the width and the length are short.

In addition, the second card is characterized by having a thick thickness, a long length, and a wide shape.

In addition, the third card has a short width but a long shape.
