[0034] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , a multi-network SIM card provided by the present application can include a shell 13, a printed circuit board 14 and a gold finger 12.

[0035] The shell 13 has a first accommodating chamber, and the shell 13 matches a SIM card mounting slot of a terminal device; a printed circuit board 14 (PCB) is arranged in the first accommodating chamber, and the printed circuit board 14 is integrated with at least two SIM cards 10 of operators and a control chip 11; the control chip 11 is connected with the SIM cards 10 on the printed circuit board 14, and the control chip 11 is used for switching the corresponding SIM cards 10 on the printed circuit board 14 to interact with the terminal device according to signal strength; a gold finger 12 is connected with the control chip 11 and the SIM cards 10 on the printed circuit board 14, and the gold finger 12 is arranged on the shell 13, and the gold finger 12 is used for connecting the multi-network SIM card with the terminal device.

[0036] Here, the shell 13 matches the SIM card mounting slot of the terminal device means that the shell 13 can be mounted into the SIM card mounting slot of the terminal device, and the gold finger 12 on the shell 13 mounted in the SIM card mounting slot of the terminal device is connected with the terminal device, that is, the multi-network SIM card 10 is connected with the terminal device.

[0037] In the embodiment, the terminal device can be an Internet of Things device. When the SIM cards 10 are integrated on the printed circuit board 14, the SIM cards 10 of corresponding operators can be integrated according to the application environment, for example, in the environment applied by the terminal device, the network signal of a mobile operator and the network signal of a China Unicom operator are stronger, so the SIM cards 10 of the mobile operator and the SIM cards 10 of the China Unicom operator can be integrated on the printed circuit board 14; for another example, in the environment applied by the terminal device, the network signal of a mobile operator and the network signal of a China Telecom operator are stronger, so the SIM cards 10 of the mobile operator and the SIM cards 10 of the China Telecom operator can be integrated on the printed circuit board 14; of course, the SIM cards 10 of three operators can also be integrated on the printed circuit board 14, that is, the SIM cards 10 of the mobile operator, the SIM cards 10 of the China Unicom operator and the SIM cards 10 of the China Telecom operator are integrated on the printed circuit board 14.

[0038] When the multi-network SIM card is switched, the corresponding SIM card 10 is switched to interact with the terminal device according to signal strength by the control chip 11, without the need of a switching switch, the circuit structure of the multi-network SIM card is simple, and the cost is low; in addition, since the multi-network SIM card is integrated with at least two SIM cards 10 of operators, the terminal device applying the multi-network SIM card can be timely applied to a regional environment, the long connection of the terminal device is ensured, the online rate of the terminal device is improved, and the operation cost of an enterprise is reduced.

[0041] Specifically, when setting the first receiving chamber, it is necessary to take into account the specific dimensions of the printed circuit board 14. That is, it is necessary to ensure that the printed circuit board 14 can be placed in the first receiving chamber and that the placement of the printed circuit board 14 is not affected after the second sub-shell 132 and the first sub-shell 131 are sealed together.

[0042] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 5 As shown, the printed circuit board 14 integrates SIM cards 10 from three different operators.

[0043] Specifically, the printed circuit board 14 integrates SIM cards 10 from three different operators: China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom. These SIM cards are connected to the control chip 11 and the gold finger 12, respectively. Since the signals from these three operators can essentially provide full coverage—meaning that at least one operator's network signal is strong in any given area—the integration of SIM cards 10 from all three operators on the printed circuit board 14 further ensures the online rate of the terminal device.

[0044] Furthermore, when setting up the SIM cards 10 of the three operators, a first area and a second area can be divided on the printed circuit board 14. The second area is located on one side of the first area, the control chip 11 is set on the first area, and the SIM cards 10 of the three operators are set side by side on the second area.

[0045] Specifically, the first and second regions can be arranged side by side when dividing the region. The SIM cards 10 of the three operators are arranged sequentially on one side of the second region. The control chip 11 and the SIM cards 10 of the three operators can be soldered onto the printed circuit board 14. Solder paste can be used for soldering.

[0047] It should be noted that the area where the control chip is located is the first area; the area where the SIM card integrated on the printed circuit board is located is the second area, for example, when two SIM cards of two operators are integrated on the printed circuit board, the area where the two operators are located is the second area; for another example, when three SIM cards of three operators are integrated on the printed circuit board, the area where the three operators are located is the second area.

The control chip 11 can be any single-chip microcomputer that can meet the above requirements, which is not limited here.
