Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of IC card reading and writing equipment technology, and in particular to an IC card reading and writing equipment that is easy to install. Background Technology

[0002] IC card reader / writer devices are specialized equipment designed for reading and writing data to integrated circuit (IC) cards. These devices, with their efficient and secure data processing capabilities, are widely used in various fields, including but not limited to public transportation systems (such as electronic ticketing for buses and subways), access control systems, bank self-service terminals, and various electronic payment scenarios.

[0003] Traditional IC card readers, especially those using embedded mounting, typically rely on screws or other fasteners to ensure secure installation in their designated positions. While this method provides a stable operating environment, it introduces complex and time-consuming disassembly and assembly processes when the device needs maintenance, upgrades, or replacement. Specifically, maintenance personnel need to use tools to remove the screws, which not only increases the difficulty of operation but may also damage the mounting holes due to frequent disassembly and assembly, affecting the device's installation stability and lifespan.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design an IC card reader / writer that is easy to install. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the disadvantage of inconvenient installation, an easy-to-install IC card reader / writer device is provided.

The IC card reader / writer body is snapped into the inside of the mounting frame. Square slots are provided on both the left and right sides of the inside of the mounting frame, and springs are connected to each square slot. One end of the spring is fixed to the wall of the square slot of the mounting frame, and the other end of the spring is connected to the card. Card slots that match the card are provided on both the left and right sides of the IC card reader / writer body. The card engages with the IC card reader / writer body. A wedge is connected to the front of each card and slides within the square slot inside the mounting frame. Push plates are symmetrically slidably connected to the front of the mounting frame. The rear end of the push plate passes through the square slot inside the mounting frame and contacts the adjacent wedge.

[0007] In one embodiment, a limiting plate and bolts are also included. The limiting plate is snapped onto the front side of the mounting frame. Bolts are symmetrically connected to the limiting plate by threads, and the bolts are connected to the mounting frame by threads.

[0008] In one embodiment, a baffle and a magnetic block are also included. Magnetic blocks are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the front side of the mounting frame, and a baffle is magnetically connected to the front side of the mounting frame through the magnetic blocks.

[0009] In one embodiment, an anti-slip pad is provided on the outside of the IC card reader / writer body.

[0010] In one embodiment, the IC card reader / writer body is enclosed by a baffle.

[0011] In one embodiment, openings are pre-set at all four corners of the mounting frame.

[0012] The beneficial effects and significant advancements of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] This invention, through the design of the card and spring, allows users to simply align the IC card reader / writer with the opening of the mounting frame and gently push it in to complete the installation, eliminating tedious steps such as screw fixing and making the installation process simpler and faster.

[0020] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but this does not limit the scope of protection and application of the present invention.

[0021] Example: An easy-to-install IC card reader / writer device, such as... Figure 1-5As shown, the device includes a mounting frame 1, an IC card reader / writer body 2, a card 3, a spring 4, a wedge 5, a push plate 6, a limiting plate 7, bolts 8, a baffle 9, and a magnetic block 10. The mounting frame 1 has pre-set openings at all four corners to facilitate its installation. The IC card reader / writer body 2 is snapped into the interior of the mounting frame 1. The IC card reader / writer body 2 is used to perform IC card reading and writing operations. Anti-slip pads are also attached to the outside of the IC card reader / writer body 2 to prevent slippage when handling the IC card reader / writer. When the IC card reader / writer body 2 slips, square slots are provided on both the left and right sides of the mounting frame 1. Springs 4 are connected to each square slot. One end of each spring 4 is fixed to the wall of the square slot in the mounting frame 1, while the other end of each spring 4 is connected to a clip 3. The clips 3 penetrate the inner side of the mounting frame 1. Slots for the IC card reader / writer body 2 are provided on both the left and right sides to accommodate the clips 3, thus securing the IC card reader / writer body 2. The springs 4 provide elastic support for the clips 3, ensuring their stability. The card slot is inserted or ejected, providing necessary cushioning and shock absorption. An inclined block 5 is connected to the front of the card 3, and the inclined block 5 slides within the square groove inside the mounting frame 1. A push plate 6 is symmetrically slidably connected to the left and right sides of the front of the mounting frame 1. The rear end of the push plate 6 penetrates the square groove inside the mounting frame 1 and contacts the adjacent inclined block 5. The rear end of the push plate 6 has an arc design. A limiting plate 7 is engaged on the front of the mounting frame 1. Bolts 8 are symmetrically threaded onto the limiting plate 7, and are threaded to the mounting frame 1. The bolts 8 connect the limiting plate 7 and the mounting frame 1, achieving a fastening effect through the threaded connection to ensure the stability of the limiting plate 7. Magnetic blocks 10 are connected to the left and right sides of the front of the mounting frame 1. A baffle 9 is magnetically connected to the front of the mounting frame 1 via two magnetic blocks 10. The magnetic blocks 10 are magnetically connected to the baffle 9, enabling quick installation and removal of the baffle 9. The baffle 9 can cover the outer edge of the IC card reader / writer body 2.
