Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a transponder system with a transponder device, a reading device for communication with the transponder device and a functional device for performing functions predetermined by the reading device. Furthermore, the invention relates to a transponder device which is particularly suitable for implementing the transponder system.
  • Transponder systems of the type mentioned at the outset have hitherto been used to query data stored on the chip of the chip device via the reading device and to trigger predetermined functions in assigned functional devices by the memory content of the chip.
  • these can consist, for example, in an access release in accordance with the identification data stored on the chip, or in the output of a delivery quantity, for example in the form of money or fuel, if the chip provides the release the amount of money or amount of fuel required.
  • the known transponder systems are closed systems, such that the data transmitted from the transponder chip to the reading device cannot be influenced by the carrier or user of the transponder device. This is also a very desirable effect of transponder technology.
  • the first option mentioned makes sense, for example, when it comes to being able to debit a fare in the public transport network from the value chip of a so-called “pay card”, depending on whether the user of the card is a full-price user, for example an adult, or a partial price user, for example a child.
  • the second option takes into account the frequently recurring case in practice that the user of the transponder device triggers the optional triggering of an additional function, for example a receipt for a quantity dispensing process that has taken place.
  • the known transponder systems do not allow the selection of the aforementioned options.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of improving a transponder system of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that the transponder device can also be used to trigger optional functions.
  • This object is achieved by a transponder system with the features of claim 1.
  • the transponder device has an actively operable switch contact device for the optional transmission of additional information to the reading device and for triggering a function of the functional device defined thereby.
  • the transponder system makes it possible for the first time to use a transponder system interactively to a certain extent in addition to conventional use, but without this having an undesirable influence on the information data stored on the chip for transmission to the reading device by the user of the transponder device to enable. Rather, a kind of "remote control function" is superimposed on the actual transponder function in such a way that the transponder device is used based on the additional information for remote triggering of optional functions of the functional device. This creates exactly the aforementioned desirable additional options for using a transponder system.
  • the transponder device in a transponder system which is used to control a quantity delivery, such as the delivery of a fuel quantity to a fuel extraction device of a gas station, can be used as part of the transponder system according to the invention via a corresponding actuation of the switch contact device for remote control or remote triggering of the function of a receipt output
  • a transponder device acting as a chip card can be carried out, the refueling also for people with reduced mobility, who have a selection of the desired additional function on the fuel removal device itself cannot easily perform, for example, disabled.
  • the additional information transmitted to the reading device can be used for the immediate triggering or execution of a corresponding function of the functional device, or the additional information can be processed at a later point in time for the triggering or execution of a corresponding function.
  • the additional information can also reproduce coded values, for example coded analog measured values, such as environmental parameters, which can be coded by means of the switch contact device by actuating certain switch contact combinations. For example, with three switching contacts that can be actuated independently of one another, eight states can be represented in coded form.
  • the transponder device which is particularly suitable for realizing the aforementioned transponder system has a chip device which, in addition to an antenna contact structure for contacting the antenna device, has a switch contact structure for electrically connecting the chip device to at least one switch contact device.
  • transponder device In the case of the transponder device according to the invention, no further chip device and also no further antenna device are required to implement a remote control function of the transponder device in order to achieve the advantageous effects already explained above. Rather, both applications, that is to say both the conventional transponder application and the superimposed remote control application, can be carried out by means of one and the same chip device.
  • a possible embodiment of the transponder device consists in providing the chip device or the chip of the chip device with a corresponding ASIC circuit structure.
  • a particularly advantageous embodiment of the transponder device is possible if the switch contact structure of the chip device has a number of memory cell contact conductors which corresponds to the number of switch contacts of the switch contact device and which are contacted with a corresponding number of free memory cells of a memory unit. This makes it possible to superimpose the "remote control function" of the transponder device on the conventional transponder function, that is to say the remote transmission of the memory content, and to use the same storage units which are also used for storing the information data.
  • the carrier unit also has a laminate structure with at least one laminate layer applied to a substrate, the laminate layer can be used in a particularly advantageous manner to form the switch contact device.
  • a particularly advantageous embodiment of the switch contact device becomes possible if the laminate layer serves to receive a spring-elastic movement contact and the substrate serves to receive the counter-contact of the switch contact device, such that external pressure on the movement contact causes the contact to close.
  • the switch contact device can be made by simply inserting such contact domes in the laminate structure during the production of the laminate structure.
  • the transponder device according to the invention has a carrier unit which is designed as a chip card.
  • a carrier unit which is designed as a chip card.
  • the transponder device according to the invention is not only used for contactless transmission of the information data of the chip, but is also intended, for example, to make direct contact with the reading device, ie by inserting the transponder device into the reading device.
  • different embodiments are also conceivable, which for example also include the design of the transponder device as a key fob or tag, which can be attached to any carrier, for example the dashboard of a motor vehicle.

  • the operation of the transponder device 1 1 in the transponder system 10 thus enables output of a defined amount of fuel from the fuel removal device into the transponder environment, that is to say, for example, into the motor vehicle in which the user of the transponder device is staying, which is induced by the transponder device 1 1 ,
  • the transponder device 11 in the transponder system 10 enables a parallel signal connection 18 to the reading device 12, which is optionally activated by means of a switch contact device 27 (FIG. 2).
  • An optional additional function can then be triggered in the functional device 13 via the reading device 12 by means of a signal connection 19, with the result that an additional operation 20 acting on the transponder environment 10 is carried out by the functional device 13.
