Some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0061] See also Figure 1 , the present application embodiment provides a financial transaction device 100 for reading IC card information to perform financial payment transactions. For ease of understanding and explanation, the present application embodiment defines the first direction as Figure 1 The Z-axis direction is shown, and the second direction is Figure 1The R-axis direction is shown, and the third direction is Figure 1 In the Y-axis direction shown, the first direction, the second direction and the third direction are coplanar, and the first direction and the third direction are perpendicular to each other. Obviously, this is not a limitation of the embodiments of the present application.

[0062] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, the financial transaction device 100 includes a housing 10 , a card reading assembly 20 , a keyboard 30 and a display screen 40 .

[0063] The housing 10 has a receiving cavity 11 . The housing 10 may be composed of a plurality of parts, and the plurality of parts together enclose the receiving cavity 11 .

[0064] The card reader assembly 20 is disposed in the storage cavity 11. The card reader assembly 20 includes a card reader 21, a control board 22, a first connecting member 23, and a shielding member 24. The card reader 21 is provided with a card reading slot 213 that penetrates the card reader 21 along a first direction. The card reading slot 213 is used to receive an external IC card so that the card reader 21 can read the information of the IC card. The housing 10 is provided with a card insertion port 12 and an outlet 13 that are connected to the storage cavity 11 and correspond to the two ends of the card reading slot 213, respectively. The card insertion port 12 is used to allow the IC card to pass through the card reading slot 213. The card reader 213 is inserted into the card reader slot 213, and the discharge port 13 is used to discharge foreign matter in the card reader slot 213. The control board 22 is arranged on the card reader 21 and is electrically connected to the card reader 21 through the first connecting member 23, and the first connecting member 23 is located at one end of the card reader slot 213 away from the card insertion port 12. The shielding member 24 is arranged on the control board 22 and is located on the side of the first connecting member 23 away from the card insertion port 12. The shielding member 24 is used to shield the first connecting member 23 to limit the external device from passing through the discharge port 13 and contacting the first connecting member 23.

[0065] The keyboard 30 and the display screen 40 are both disposed on the housing 10 . The keyboard 30 is used to input information such as a transaction password and a transaction amount, and the display screen 40 is used to display transaction information that needs to be presented based on the input information.

[0066] In this embodiment, the control board 22 may be a PCB circuit board, the control board 22 receives the information of the IC read by the card reader 21 and performs a logical operation, the first connector 23 may be a solder pin, and the first connector 23 electrically connects the control board 22 and the card reader 21. When the financial transaction device 100 of the embodiment of the present application is used for financial transactions, the cardholder inserts the IC card into the card reader slot 213 through the card insertion port 12, and then enters the transaction password and transaction amount and other information through the keyboard 30 to conduct the transaction, and the display screen 40 displays specific transaction information. If foreign matter such as a label attached to the IC card falls off and falls into the card reader slot 213 when the card is swiped, the foreign matter will be discharged to the outside of the housing 10 through the card reader slot 213 and the discharge port 13 under the action of its own gravity or under the action of external force, thereby effectively preventing the foreign matter from falling into the card reader slot 213 and being unable to be cleaned, thereby affecting the service life of the financial transaction device 100. In addition, since the shielding member 24 is provided to shield the first connecting member 23, it can effectively prevent external devices from passing through the discharge port 13 and contacting the first connecting member 23 to steal the cardholder information, thereby improving the data security of the cardholder information and making the financial transaction device 100 of the embodiment of the present application meet the security requirements.

[0067] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5In this embodiment, the financial transaction device 100 further includes a mainboard 50, which is disposed in the storage cavity 11 and located on the side of the card reader 21 away from the card insertion port 12, and the mainboard 50 extends along the second direction, the mainboard 50 is electrically connected to the control board 22, and the mainboard 50 is provided with a through hole 51 whose two ends are respectively connected to the card reading slot 213 and the discharge port 13, wherein the angle between the first direction and the second direction is an acute angle. Specifically, the mainboard 50 is also a PCB circuit board, and a control chip 52 is disposed on the mainboard 50, and the control chip 52 is the logic control center of the entire financial transaction device 100, and the mainboard 50 extends along the second direction and is parallel to the bottom surface of the housing 10. By providing the main board 50, the logic calculation amount of the control board 22 can be reduced, so that the electronic components on the control board 22 are reduced and the size and thickness of the control board 22 are reduced, thereby reducing the size of the card reading assembly 20; by providing a through hole 51 on the main board 50, the two ends of the through hole 51 are connected to the card reading slot 213 and the discharge port 13 respectively, it can be ensured that foreign matter is discharged to the outside of the housing 10 through the card reading slot 213, the through hole 51 and the discharge port 13, thereby effectively preventing foreign matter from falling into the card reading slot 213 and being unable to be cleaned, thereby affecting the service life of the financial transaction device 100; by setting the included angle between the extension direction of the main board 50 and the extension direction of the card reading slot 213 to be an acute angle, it means that the card reading assembly 20 is tilted. Since the light propagates in a straight line, it is difficult to observe the position of the first connecting member 23 through the through hole 51 and the discharge port 13, thereby increasing the difficulty of using an external device to contact the first connecting member 23 through the discharge port 13 and the through hole 51, thereby further improving the data security of the cardholder information.

[0068] In this embodiment, the angle between the first direction and the second direction is in the range of 60 degrees to 80 degrees, thereby improving the data security of the cardholder information and saving space in the storage cavity 11 .

[0069] In some other embodiments, the main board 50 may not be provided, and the control chip 52 may be provided on the control board 22, and the keyboard 30 and the display screen 40 are both electrically connected to the control board 22, which can also enable the financial transaction device 100 to realize the function of financial payment transactions. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations on this.

[0070] In this embodiment, the financial transaction device 100 further includes an assembly part 60, which is arranged at one end of the card reader 21 away from the card insertion port 12. The assembly part 60 is provided with a through hole 61, and both ends of the through hole 61 are connected to the card reading slot 213 and the through hole 51 respectively. Since the card reading assembly 20 is arranged obliquely on the main board 50, there must be a gap 243 between the card reading slot 213 and the through hole 51, which increases the risk of foreign matter falling on the main board 50. By providing the assembly part 60 and providing the through hole 61 with both ends connected to the card reading slot 213 and the through hole 51 respectively on the assembly part 60, it can be ensured that the foreign matter can be smoothly discharged to the outside of the housing 10 through the through hole 61, the through hole 51 and the discharge port 13 after falling from the card reading slot 213. In addition, the through hole 61 extends the distance between the card reading slot 213 and the through hole 51, thereby increasing the difficulty of using an external device to contact the first connecting member 23, and further facilitating the data security of the cardholder information.

[0071] In this embodiment, the financial transaction device 100 also includes a sealing ring 70, which is arranged between the assembly part 60 and the mainboard 50 and is respectively opposite to the through hole 61 and the through hole 51. The sealing ring 70 can seal the gap between the through hole 61 and the through hole 51 to play a role in dust and water prevention.

[0072] Please refer to further Figure 6 and Figure 7 In this embodiment, the card reader 21 includes a first card reader portion 211 and a second card reader portion 212 which are arranged opposite to and connected along a third direction, the third direction is perpendicular to the first direction, a portion of the card reader slot 213 is opened on a side of the first card reader portion 211 facing the second card reader portion 212, and another portion of the card reader slot 213 is opened on a side of the second card reader portion 212 facing the first card reader portion 211, and when one of the first card reader portion 211 and the second card reader portion 212 is electrically connected to the IC card, the information of the IC card is read, and the control board 22 includes a first control board 221 and a second control board 222, the first control board 221 is arranged on a side of the first card reader portion 211 away from the second card reader portion 212 and is connected to the first card reader portion 211 through a first The connecting member 23 is electrically connected to the first card reading part 211, the second control board 222 is arranged on the side of the second card reading part 212 away from the first card reading part 211 and is electrically connected to the second card reading part 212 through another first connecting member 23, the shielding member 24 includes a first shielding member 241 and a second shielding member 242 arranged at intervals, the first shielding member 241 and the second shielding member 242 are respectively arranged on the first control board 221 and the second control board 222 and are located on the side of the corresponding first connecting member 23 away from the card insertion port 12, the first shielding member 241 and the second shielding member 242 respectively shield the corresponding first connecting member 23, and there is a gap 243 between the first shielding member 241 and the second shielding member 242 that is opposite to the card reading slot 213.

[0073] Specifically, the first card reader 211 and the second card reader 212 are both provided with a spring piece 2111 extending into the card reader slot 213 on one side thereof close to each other. The first card reader 211 and the second card reader 212 can be electrically connected to the IC card through the corresponding spring piece 2111. The first control board 221 and the second control board 222 respectively receive the information of the IC read by the first card reader 211 and the second card reader 212 and perform logic operations. Due to the different operating habits of the cardholder, the cardholder is more likely to insert the IC card upside down when inserting the card. By setting one of the first card reader 211 and the second card reader 212 to be electrically connected to the IC card, the information of the IC card can be read, so that the financial transaction device 100 can support double-sided card swiping, thereby improving the convenience of the cardholder in financial transactions. In addition, by providing the first shielding member 241 and the second shielding member 242 to respectively shield the corresponding first connecting member 23, it is possible to effectively prevent external devices from passing through the discharge port 13 and contacting any first connecting member 23 to steal the cardholder information, thereby improving the data security of the cardholder information, and the gap 243 between the first shielding member 241 and the second shielding member 242 can allow foreign objects to pass through, thereby effectively preventing foreign objects from falling into the card reading slot 213 and being unable to be cleaned, thereby affecting the service life of the financial transaction device 100.

[0074] Please refer to further Figure 8 In this embodiment, the first control board 221 and the second control board 222 both extend along the first direction, and the first control board 221 protrudes from the end of the first card reader 211 away from the card insertion port 12, and the second control board 222 protrudes from the end of the second card reader 212 away from the card insertion port 12. The first connecting member 23, the first shielding member 241 and the second shielding member 242 all extend along the third direction. The length b1 of the first control board 221 protruding from the end of the first card reader 211 away from the card insertion port 12 and the length b2 of the second control board 222 protruding from the end of the second card reader 212 away from the card insertion port 12 respectively satisfy the following relationship: b1>c1×(d1-h) / (a1 -h), b2>c2×(d1-h) / (a2-h), a1≤d3, a2≤d3, wherein c1 is the distance between the first shielding member 241 and the corresponding first connecting member 23, c2 is the distance between the second shielding member 242 and the corresponding first connecting member 23, d1 is the distance between the first control board 221 and the second control board 222, a1 is the length of the first shielding member 241 along the third direction, a2 is the length of the second shielding member 242 along the third direction, h is the length of the first connecting member 23 along the third direction, and d3 is the distance between the first control board 221 and the card reading slot 213 and the distance between the second control board 222 and the card reading slot 213.

[0075] Specifically, c1 is the distance between the first shielding member 241 and the starting position of the corresponding first connecting member 23, c2 is the distance between the second shielding member 242 and the starting position of the corresponding first connecting member 23, and since the width d2 of the card reading slot 213 along the third direction is fixed, the distance between the first control board 221 and the card reading slot 213 and the distance d3 between the second control board 222 and the card reading slot 213 are unchanged, the distance d1 between the first control board 221 and the second control board 222 is fixed, and the length h of the first connecting member 23 along the third direction is unchanged. What can be changed in the structural design are the length a1 of the first shielding member 241 along the third direction, the length a2 of the second shielding member 242 along the third direction, the distance c1 between the first shielding member 241 and the corresponding first connecting member 23, the distance c2 between the second shielding member 242 and the corresponding first connecting member 23, and the length b1 of the first control board 221 protruding from the end of the first card reading portion 211 away from the card insertion port 12. and the length b2 of the second control board 222 protruding from the end of the second card reader 212 away from the card insertion port 12, wherein the first shielding member 241 and the second shielding member 242 are arranged at the position closest to the corresponding first connecting member 23 during design, that is, c1 and c2 are both set to the minimum value under the safety spacing of the production process, and in order to avoid blocking foreign matter, the values ​​of a1 and a2 cannot be greater than d3. By using the above relationship to design the values ​​of a1, a2, b1 and b2, it is possible to prevent light from passing through the end of the first control board 221 close to the discharge outlet 13 and the top of the second shielding member 242 to reach the first connecting member 23 corresponding to the second shielding member 242, and it is also possible to prevent light from passing through the end of the second control board 222 close to the discharge outlet 13 and the top of the first shielding member 241 to reach the first connecting member 23 corresponding to the second shielding member 242, thereby effectively preventing the signal of any first connecting member 23 from being detected by an external device through the discharge outlet 13, thereby improving the data security of the cardholder information.

[0076] In one embodiment, a1=a2=d3, thereby maximizing the length and shielding effect of the first shielding member 241 and the second shielding member 242 and preventing foreign matter from being stopped when passing through the gap 243 between the first shielding member 241 and the second shielding member 242.

[0077] Please refer again Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7In this embodiment, the card reading assembly 20 further includes a second connecting member 25, which is disposed between the first control board 221 and the second control board 222 and is located on one side of the card reading slot 213. The two ends of the second connecting member 25 are electrically connected to the first control board 221 and the second control board 222, respectively, so that signal communication can be performed between the first control board 221 and the second control board 222. A safety winding (not shown) is disposed on the second connecting member 25, and a safety winding is also disposed on the first control board 221 and the second control board 222. The safety winding (also called a Tamper signal line) is a signal line whose level change can be detected by a security chip.

[0078] Specifically, the control chip 52 is a security chip, and a security sensor (not shown) is provided inside the control chip 52. When the security sensor detects an attack, it will generate an interrupt or reset and clear all security-related sensitive data, and lock the financial transaction device 100. The security sensor can be configured as an input port with a fixed level. When the level changes, it indicates that an attack has occurred, and the financial transaction device 100 is triggered to be locked. The security sensor can also be configured so that the output port and the input port form a loop, the output port sends a random number, and the input port receives it. When the data sent is different from the received data, it indicates that an attack has occurred, and the financial transaction device 100 is triggered to be locked. When the security chip detects that the level on the security winding is inconsistent with the set level value, the security chip will trigger the security mechanism to erase the key and other sensitive information. In this embodiment, the second connecting member 25 can be a connector. By arranging a safety winding on the second connecting member 25 to electrically connect the first control board 221 and the second control board 222, an abnormal level can be transmitted to the control chip 52 when one side of the first control board 221 and the second control board 222 is separated or when a signal is obtained from the second connecting member 25, so that the control chip 52 locks the financial transaction device 100, thereby improving the data security of the financial transaction device 100 and the data security of the cardholder information.

[0079] In this embodiment, a first connector 2211 is protrudingly provided on a side of the first control board 221 facing away from the second control board 222, and a second connector 53 is protrudingly provided on a side of the main board 50 facing the card reader assembly 20. The financial transaction device 100 also includes a conductive member 80, which may be a flexible circuit board. Both ends of the conductive member 80 are electrically connected to the first connector 2211 and the second connector 53, respectively, so that the first control board 221 can communicate with the main board 50, and the second control board 222 can also communicate with the main board 50 through the second connecting member 25 and the first control board 221. A safety winding is also provided on the conductive member 80, so that when the first control board 221 and the main board 50 are separated or when a signal is obtained from the conductive member 80, an abnormal level can be transmitted to the control chip 52, and the control chip 52 can lock the financial transaction device 100, thereby improving the data security of the financial transaction device 100 and the data security of the cardholder information.

[0080] In some other embodiments, the first control board 221 and the second control board 222 may also be electrically connected to the main board 50 through the conductive member 80, respectively, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0081] In this embodiment, the card reading assembly 20 further includes a third connecting member 26, which is disposed between the first control board 221 and the second control board 222, and the third connecting member 26 and the second connecting member 25 are respectively located at opposite sides of the card reading slot 213, and both ends of the third connecting member 26 are respectively electrically connected to the first control board 221 and the second control board 222, and a safety winding is also provided on the third connecting member 26. Specifically, the third connecting member 26 can be a zebra strip or a connector, and both ends of the third connecting member 26 are respectively electrically connected to the first control board 221 and the second control board 222 through the signal pad 2212. By providing a safety winding on the third connecting member 26, when the first control board 221 and the second control board 222 are separated from the side of the second connecting member 25 or when a signal is obtained from the third connecting member 26, an abnormal level can be transmitted to the control chip 52, so that the control chip 52 locks the financial transaction device 100, thereby improving the data security of the financial transaction device 100 and the data security of the cardholder information.

[0082] In this embodiment, the first shielding member 241 and the second shielding member 242 are both PCB boards, the first shielding member 241 is electrically connected to the first control board 221, the second shielding member 242 is electrically connected to the second control board 222, and safety windings are provided on the first shielding member 241 and the second shielding member 242. In this way, when the first shielding member 241 and the second shielding member 242 are removed, an abnormal level can be given to the control chip 52, so that the control chip 52 locks the financial transaction device 100, thereby improving the data security of the financial transaction device 100 and the data security of the cardholder information.

[0083] In summary, the financial transaction device 100 of the embodiment of the present application has a card reading slot 213 that penetrates the card reading member 21 along the first direction, and a card insertion port 12 and an outlet 13 that correspond to the two ends of the card reading slot 213 on the housing 10. When foreign objects such as labels attached to IC cards fall off and fall into the card reading slot 213, the foreign objects are discharged to the outside of the housing 10 through the card reading slot 213 and the outlet 13 under the action of their own gravity or external force, thereby effectively preventing the foreign objects from falling into the card reading slot 213 and being unable to be cleaned, thereby improving the service life of the financial transaction device 100. By providing a shielding member 24 to shield the first connecting member 23 that electrically connects the control board 22 and the card reading member 21, it is possible to effectively prevent external devices from passing through the outlet 13 and contacting the first connecting member 23 to steal the cardholder information, thereby improving the data security of the cardholder information.
