Novel card reading POS machine

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel card reading POS machine, which comprises a POS machine body, a controller, a gear, a conveyor belt and a motor, wherein the controller is arranged in the POS machine body, a card swiping area is arranged in the POS machine body, a strip-shaped card slot for communicating the card swiping area with the outside is formed in the POS machine body, a driving gear and a driven gear are arranged in the card swiping area at intervals, the conveying belt is wound on the driving gear and the driven gear, and performs transmission in the direction perpendicular to the card slot, the driving gear is connected with the motor, a magnetic head is arranged on the conveying belt, the positions, close to the driving gear and the driven gear, in the card swiping area are each provided with an in-place detection switch, and the magnetic head, the in-place detection switches and the motor are all connected with the controller. According to the invention, manual card swiping is not needed; and after the type of the to-be-read card is automatically detected and recognized after the to-be-read card is inserted, the to-be-read card is automatically swiped, so that the card swiping efficiency and the card swiping success rate are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of POS machines, in particular to a novel card-reading POS machine. Background technique [0002] At present, in POS machine payment products, there are generally three types of card readers, namely: non-contact IC card, contact IC card, and magnetic stripe card. The communication technologies used by the three cards are NFC, IC card contacts, and printed tapes. The physical media of the three kinds of card readers are NFC induction coil, IC card holder with 6 or 8 shrapnel, and magnetic head with 1-3 tracks. [0003] Such as figure 1 As shown, since both the IC card and the magnetic stripe card need to be opened on the shell of the POS machine product, the IC card holder and the magnetic head are designed at the corresponding positions of the opening, as well as the slideways required for swiping the magnetic stripe card. This will lead to complex structural design of the product, and the necessary slideways for t...

Problems solved by technology

This will lead to complex structural design of the product, and the slideways necessary for the magnetic stripe card will also make the product wider

[0004] In addition, since the use of the magnetic stripe card is to stick the magnetic stripe card to the bottom of the magnetic track, and slide it from one end of the magnetic track to the other end at a certain speed, so that the magnetic head can sense the information in the magnetic tape on the magnetic stripe card; Or, the way and method of swiping the card are different, which will cause some users to not be able to swipe the card correctly, and sometimes need to swipe several times to succeed, and the user experience is not good
