Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for reading chip cards.
- chip cards A number of different chip cards are known in the prior art, which are used for credit purposes, for telephoning or for security tasks and information transmission.
- the chip cards usually have the usual credit card standard format and are read into chip card readers of various designs.
- chip card readers are known which can be inserted into a receiving slot of a computer in order to transmit data from the chip card into the computer.
- the object of the invention is to provide a chip card reading device with which insertion of two chip cards in a receiving channel is made possible in a simple manner.
- this object is achieved by a device for reading chip cards, with at least one channel receiving a chip card, which has at least one reading head, the device being releasably insertable into a receiving slot of a computer provided for receiving modules, the channel for receiving at least one chip card, two rear boundary walls are provided in two different levels, which are each arranged at different distances from the opening of the channel, so that two chip cards arranged directly one above the other can be inserted into the channel at different distances, with a pretensioning device which is pretensioned in this way, that the lower of the two smart cards when inserted into the empty device in Direction is pressed out of the plane of the upper of the two different levels in the lower level, the biasing device being arranged on the upper boundary wall of the upper of the two different levels.
- the provision of a channel with two rear boundary walls, which are arranged in two different planes, each with a different distance from the opening of the channel ensures that the chips of two chip cards inserted into the reading device are offset from one another in their respective positions End position in which they adjoin the respective boundary wall of the channel come to rest so that they can each be contacted with a reading head arranged above a chip card.
- the fact that the two chip cards protrude outward from the reading device in a position inserted in the reading device ensures that at least one of the two chip cards remains recognizable and identifiable even in the inserted position.
- a pretensioning device which is pretensioned such that the lower of the two chip cards is pushed into the lower level in the direction of the level of the upper of the two different levels when it is inserted into the empty device.
- a pretensioning device is provided according to the invention, which is pretensioned such that the upper of the two chip cards when inserted into the empty one Device is pressed in the direction from the level of the lower of the two different levels into the upper level. It is thereby achieved that both only one chip card and two chip cards can be read simultaneously in the reading device according to the invention.
- the pretensioning device is preferably on the upper boundary wall the upper of the two different levels is arranged.
- the biasing device of the reading device according to the invention is in this case preferably a leaf spring, the two ends of which adjoin the upper boundary wall of the upper of the two different levels.
- This measure ensures that the pretensioning device is arranged at a point from which it acts directly in the direction of the position into which a chip card that is inserted first is to be guided.
- the reading device is designed such that, in the inserted state, only the lower chip card contacts the chip of this chip card with only a first reading head.
- the chip of the lower chip card contacts only the first reading head
- the chip of the upper chip card makes contact only with a second reading head, the reading heads corresponding to the distance between the two rear boundary walls arranged in different planes are spaced apart.
- a pretensioning device which is pretensioned in such a way that the lower of the two chip cards is pushed into the lower level in the direction of the level of the upper of the two different levels when inserted into the empty device
- the pretensioning device is preferably on the lower level Boundary wall of the lower of the two different levels is arranged.
- the biasing device of the reading device according to the invention is in this case preferably a leaf spring, the two ends of which adjoin the lower boundary wall of the lower of the two different levels.
- This measure also ensures that the pretensioning device is arranged at a point from which it acts directly in the direction of the position into which a chip card that is inserted first is to be guided.
- the reading device is designed such that, in the inserted state, only the upper chip card contacts the chip of this chip card with only a first reading head.
- the chip of the upper chip card contacts only the first reading head
- the chip of the lower chip card makes contact only with a second reading head, the reading heads being spaced apart according to the distance between the two rear boundary walls arranged in different planes .
- the device according to the invention preferably has two centering elements in its front area for positioning the operating position of the chip card in the reading device.
- the centering elements can be designed in a straight line, or they can be curved in accordance with the radius of curvature of the corners of an ISO-IC card. This ensures that the respective chip cards are securely positioned in their operating position.
- insertion of the at least one chip card into the device can be facilitated in that guide bands are provided on the side surfaces of the device, which guide the chip card in the channel and guide the device in the receiving slot.
- insertion of the at least one chip card into the reading device can be facilitated in that the device has a front area which can be inserted into the receiving slot of a computer and a rear area which is shorter than the front area, height and Width of the rear area are each larger than that of the receiving slot of the computer, and a guide for chip cards to be inserted into the first part is provided in the rear area.
- Fig. 1 shows an embodiment for inserting two chip cards of the reading device according to the invention in an oblique view from above.
- two chip cards 10, 20 can be inserted into the input opening 14 of a channel 4, 4 ', the chip cards 10, 20 in the inserted state lying directly one above the other in the channel 4, 4' come.
- the channel 4, 4 ' has in two different levels two respective rear boundary walls 8, 8', which are arranged at a different distance from the entrance opening 14 of the channel 4, so that the two chip cards 10, 20 each have a different distance into the channel 4 can be inserted.
- the chip 21 makes contact with a reading head 5, with the chip 11 making contact with the reading head 5 ′ when the chip card 10 is inserted at the same time.
- a leaf spring 7 is provided on the upper boundary wall of the channel 4 ′, which causes the chip card 20 to be pushed away from the boundary wall 8 in the direction of the channel 4 when it is inserted into the empty reading device 3.
- the respective chip cards 10, 20 are guided laterally by bands 6, 6 'which are arranged on the side faces of the reading device 3 and extend up to approximately 3/4 of the length of the side faces of the reading device.
- the belts 6, 6 'furthermore ensure that the reading device 3 is securely inserted into a receiving slot (not shown) of a computer.
