Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chip smart card technology, specifically a highly waterproof chip smart card. Background Technology

[0002] A smart card is a portable card with a built-in micro-integrated circuit chip. It typically uses PVC, PC, or ABS as the base material and combines metal contacts or a built-in coil antenna to achieve data interaction. It conforms to international standards such as ISO7816 and ISO14443. Its core principle is to store user identity information, keys, and transaction data through the chip. Contact cards require insertion into a terminal and communication is achieved through metal contacts, while contactless cards connect wirelessly to the terminal via electromagnetic induction. Data security is ensured by encryption algorithms such as DES and RSA, as well as a key management system, preventing forgery and information tampering. It combines information storage, encryption, and interactive functions, and is widely used in finance, public services, enterprise management, and healthcare. Compared to traditional magnetic stripe cards, it offers higher security, larger storage capacity, and multi-purpose scalability, making it an intelligent carrier for identity recognition, electronic payment, and data management.

[0003] To this end, China Patent Network published a multi-chip smart card with application number 201821886955.1. The sliding of the slider drives the sliding of the connecting rod, thereby driving the movement of the limiting block, which facilitates the installation and removal of the smart chip, makes it easy to replace smart chips in different fields, and facilitates multiple uses of one card. The elastic sheet installed inside the first groove ensures full contact between the metal block and the metal sheet, preventing incomplete contact from affecting the use of the smart chip. The through hole facilitates the hanging of the smart card.

[0004] Although current smart cards on the market meet users' needs to a certain extent, they still have certain shortcomings in use. Specifically, the internal integrated circuit chip and conductive circuits of existing smart cards are sensitive to moisture. Moisture intrusion can easily cause short circuits, instantly burning out the chip or circuits, causing the card to completely lose its responsiveness. This can result in functional failures such as no feedback when swiping the card, payment failure, and inability to recognize access control functions. Even if not immediately damaged, intermittent malfunctions can occur due to circuit corrosion. Based on this, this invention designs a highly waterproof smart card to solve the above problems.

[0017] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0018] Example: Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a highly waterproof chip smart card, including a left shell 1, a right shell 2 fixedly connected to one side of the left shell 1, rounded corners at the four corners of the left shell 1 and the right shell 2, a protective film 3 bonded to the outer sides of the left shell 1 and the right shell 2, and through holes 4 at the corners of the left shell 1, the right shell 2 and the protective film 3.

[0019] An outer thermofused ring 5 is fixedly installed on one side of the left shell 1. The outer side of the outer thermofused ring 5 is slidably connected to the inner side of the right shell 2, which can limit the movement direction of the outer thermofused ring 5. An outer sealing ring 6 is fixedly bonded to one side of the outer thermofused ring 5. The outer side of the outer sealing ring 6 is snapped to the inner side of the right shell 2, which can seal the connection between the left shell 1 and the right shell 2. An inner thermofused ring 7 is fixedly installed on one side of the right shell 2. The outer side of the inner thermofused ring 7 is slidably connected to the inner side of the left shell 1, which can limit the movement direction of the inner thermofused ring 7. An inner sealing ring 8 is fixedly bonded to one side of the inner thermofused ring 7. The outer side of the inner sealing ring 8 is snapped to the inner side of the left shell 1, which can seal the connection between the left shell 1 and the right shell 2.

[0020] Both the left shell 1 and the right shell 2 have slots 9 on their inner sides. Chip bodies 10 are snapped into the inside of the slots 9. Coils 11 are fixedly connected to both sides of the chip bodies 10. Corresponding to the outer position of the coils 11, wire grooves are provided inside the left shell 1 and the right shell 2 to limit the position of the coils 11. The coils 11 are located in the inner area of ​​the inner heat-fused ring 7, which can protect the coils 11.

[0021] The operator moves coil 11 so that it passes through the inside of the left shell 1, thus defining the position of coil 11. Then, the operator moves chip body 10 so that it engages with the slot 9 inside the left shell 1 and right shell 2. Next, the operator moves the left shell 1. During this movement, the left shell 1 is fixedly connected to the outer thermofused ring 5 on one side, allowing the position of the outer thermofused ring 5 to move. During this movement, the outer side of the outer thermofused ring 5 is slidably connected to the inside of the right shell 2, thus defining the direction of movement of the outer thermofused ring 5. At this point, the outer thermofused ring 5 is fixedly connected to the outer sealing ring 6 on one side, allowing the position of the outer sealing ring 6 to move, thus enabling the outer sealing ring 6 to engage with the inside of the right shell 2. At this point, the right shell 2... The outer side of the side-fixed inner hot melt ring 7 is slidably connected to the inner side of the left shell 1, which can limit the movement direction of the inner hot melt ring 7. At this time, the inner hot melt ring 7 is fixedly connected to the inner sealing ring 8 on one side, which can move the position of the inner sealing ring 8, so that the inner sealing ring 8 can be snapped into the inner side of the left shell 1. Finally, the left shell 1, right shell 2 and protective film 3 can be pressed together by the lamination equipment. During the pressing process, the outer hot melt ring 5 and inner hot melt ring 7 melt together, which can bond the connection between the left shell 1 and right shell 2. At the same time, the outer sealing ring 6 and inner sealing ring 8 can seal the connection between the left shell 1 and right shell 2. Finally, the protective film 3 is bonded to the outer side of the left shell 1 and right shell 2, which can protect and seal the outer layer of the left shell 1 and right shell 2.
