[0015] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention, the following briefly introduces the drawings required for describing the embodiments.

[0016] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the utility model Figure 1 ;

[0017] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the utility model Figure 2 . DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0019] A portable smart card reader includes a card reader body 1, a first fixing seat 2 and a second fixing seat 3 protruding from the upper and lower ends of the back of the card reader body 1, a first bracket 4 provided on the first fixing seat 2, a second bracket 5 provided on the second fixing seat 3, and a tightening strap 6, the tightening strap 6 including a first section 61 extending from the first bracket 4 to the second bracket 5, a second section 62 connected to the first section 61 and extending around the second bracket 5 to the first bracket 4, and a third section 63 connected to the second section 62 and fixed to the second section 62 after being around the first bracket 4. A gripping space 7 for the palm to enter is formed between the card reader body 1 and the first section 61, and a wearing space 8 for the arm to extend is formed between the first section 61 and the second section 62.

[0020] The utility model provides a portable smart card reader. By using a tightening strap, when holding the card reader body in the palm of the hand, the palm is restricted by the gripping space, which can achieve the effect of preventing it from slipping. The arm can be extended into the wearing space without holding it. When not in use, the hands can be freed, thereby increasing portability.

[0021] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution but not limiting, the first bracket 4 includes a fixed bracket 41 and a movable bracket 42, and a locking member 43 that passes through the fixed bracket 41 and the movable bracket 42 in sequence and is connected to the card reader body 1. In this embodiment, the locking member is a flat head screw.

[0022] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution but not limiting, a first ring 411 is provided below the fixed frame 41 for inserting the locking member 43. The first ring 411 is used to press against the movable frame 42, so that a gap is maintained between the fixed frame 41 and the movable frame 42 to allow the tightening belt 6 to pass through. This avoids the tightening belt being compressed, which would make it difficult to adjust the size of the tightening belt holding space or wearing space.

[0023] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution but not limiting, a second ring 421 is provided below the movable frame 42 for inserting the locking member 43. The second ring 421 is used to press against the card reader body 1, maintaining a gap between the card reader body 1 and the movable frame 42 for the tightening band 6 to pass through, thereby avoiding compression of the tightening band, which would make it difficult to adjust the size of the gripping space or wearing space of the tightening band.

[0024] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution but not a limitation, the movable frame 42 is provided with a second collar 421 at each end. The second collar 421 at the right end is provided with a notch 422, which allows the second collar 421 at the left end to serve as a rotation axis, allowing the movable frame 42 to rotate until the notch 422 engages with or disengages from the locking member 43. By rotating the movable frame so that one end of the movable frame is disengaged from the locking member, the tie-down strap can be removed.

[0025] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention but not a limitation, a hole 60 is provided at the head end of the tightening belt 6 , and the hole 60 is for the movable frame 42 to pass through.

[0026] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention but not a limitation thereof, a Velcro 64 for adhering to the second section 62 is provided at the end of the tightening belt 6 .

[0027] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution but not limiting, the length of the first bracket 4 is greater than the length of the second bracket 5, so that the card reader body can be properly turned for easy operation.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the scope of implementation of the present application. Other embodiments whose principles and basic structures are the same or similar to those of the present application are within the scope of protection of the present application.
