first embodiment
[0027]FIG. 1.A shows a back-side view of a card body according to the invention. The card body comprises an ID-1 card 1, a plug-in card 2 and a mini card 3 of substantially parallelepipedic shapes.
[0028] The electronic module limit 4 is shown by dotted line. It comprises, at least one integrated circuit and a contact area on the other side of the card, for connecting to a terminal. The electronic module is well known by the man skilled in the art and will not be further described.
[0029] One edge at the corner of the plug-in card 2 and a mini card 3 is cut off at 45° so as to form a means of fool proofing for its appropriate positioning when inserted in a mobile telephone.
[0030] A first combination of a first number of apertures 5, 7, 6, 18 and 17, and a first number of notches 19 and 20 defines the size and boundary of the plug-in card 2. A second combination of a second number of apertures 21 and a second number of notches 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16 defines the size and boundary o...
second embodiment
[0034]FIG. 2.A shows a back-side view of a card body according to the invention. The card body comprises an ID-1 card 1, a plug-in card 2 and a mini card 3.
[0035] According to the second embodiment, two additional apertures 22 and 23 are made in the corners of the mini card 3. These apertures create a clear separation between notches 11 and 12 and notches 15 and 16, and between notches 13 and 14 and notches 15 and 16. This reduces the tearing of material during unplugging operation and allows getting a mini card that is cleaner in the corner once unplugged.
[0036]FIG. 2.B shows a magnified detail of the card body according to FIG. 2.A, and in particular of the additional aperture 23 between notches 13, 14 and 15, 16 respectively.
[0037] The second embodiment also shows a possible alternative wherein the tabs 8 and 9 (see FIG. 1.A) are replaced by notches 24 and 25. This is only an example as there numerous possibilities regarding the tabs number, sizes and locations.
third embodiment
[0038]FIG. 3 shows a back-side view of a card body according to the invention.
[0039] According to this embodiment, a third corner aperture 26 separates notches 11 and 12 from notches 27 and 28. The notches 27 and 28 are provided on the edge at the corner of the mini card 3 cut off at 45°.
[0040] The third embodiment also shows a possible alternative wherein the tab 10 (see FIG. 1.A) is suppressed, the apertures 17 and 18 being made continuous by a unique aperture 30. Thus, only one link still exists between the plug-in card 2 and the ID-1 card 1. This link is cut by notches 24 and 25. In this last example the plug-in card can be very easily separated from ID-1 card by alternate folding.
[0041] Finally, the third embodiment also shows a possible variant consisting in replacing the aperture 21 by a larger aperture 29. The larger aperture 29 allows in particular a mobile telephone user to introduce its nail for voluntary and easily separating the mini card 3 from the plug-in card 2.
