Definitions
- the invention relates to a microcircuit card carrier, a method of using such a carrier and a card-adapter assembly.
- Microcircuit cards widely used in everyday life have dimensions precisely defined by standards in order to be received in the electronic device with which they are intended to cooperate.
- SIM plug-in the ID-OOO format used mainly for identification cards of mobile operators' subscribers
- medium format the ID-OOO format used mainly for identification cards of mobile operators' subscribers
- Mini-UICC format more recently introduced in order to replace the previous format, which will be referred to in the following "small format”.
- a first solution generally envisaged consists in forming the smaller microcircuit card in a breakable manner within a larger support which may form a larger microcircuit card, as described, for example, in FIG. patent application WO 2004/042651.
- microcircuit card medium format as described in the patent application FR 2 783 750.
- the patent application WO 00/73989 proposes an adapter dimensioned according to the medium format, with a cavity adapted to a small format ("3G" format in this document), and brought to the means of breakable connections by a support dimensioned in large format, and which itself forms an adapter adapted to receive the small format card.
- 3G small format
- This document therefore proposes to solve the problem of compatibility by means of an adapter adapted to receive a small microcircuit card, the dimensions of the adapter can be chosen to correspond to the large format or medium format.
- the invention proposes a support carrying a pre-cut adapter, the adapter having a cavity adapted to receive a microcircuit card, characterized in that the support carries the microcircuit card and in that the card microcircuit is precut in the holder outside the adapter.
- the support carries the elements that make it possible to produce three different configurations in order, for example, to obtain three different formats: the microcircuit card itself, the microcircuit card on the support and the microcircuit card received in the adapter. .
- the adapter is thus made independently of the pre-cut card, which avoids for example to provide cutting areas within the adapter and thus makes it possible to make an adapter of good mechanical strength.
- the cavity is positioned in such a way that the adapter receiving the microcircuit card forms a card according to a first predetermined format, for example the format ID-OOO in which case the adapter has dimensions 25 mm ⁇ 15 mm, usually within 1%.
- the support carrying the microcircuit card may also form a card in a second predetermined format, distinct from the first predetermined format, for example the ID-1 format of dimensions 85.6 mm ⁇ 54 mm to 1%.
- the microcircuit card itself generally has a third predetermined format, distinct from the first predetermined format and the second predetermined format, for example the Mini-UICC format of dimensions 15 mm x 12 mm to 1%.
- the microcircuit card has a mortise adapted to cooperate with a tenon of the adapter.
- the tenon can then have a base of width less than its free end.
- the invention also proposes a method of using a support according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that it comprises the following steps:
- the adapter carrying the card can then be positioned in an electronic device.
- microcircuit-adapter card assembly in which the adapter has a through-cavity which receives the card.
- microcircuit characterized in that the card is inserted between two narrow arms of the adapter which contribute to define the cavity and which extend over at least a substantial part of the length of the card.
- each arm mentioned above is for example less than 2 mm.
- FIG. 1 shows a card holder made in accordance with the teachings of the invention
- FIG. 2 represents an adapter and a microcircuit card separated from the support of FIG. 1 and then assembled.
- the card support 2 represented in FIG. 1 carries a microcircuit card 4 of Mini-UICC format (hereinafter referred to as "small format”) precut, that is to say linked to the support 2 by means of breakable links. 10 described in detail below
- small format Mini-UICC format
- ID-1 (general format of bank cards, referred to in the suite "large format") and carries the small microcircuit card 4 in a location such that the support assembly 2 - microcircuit card 4 is a microcircuit card according to the ID-1 format (that is to say, large format)
- the positioning (with reference to Figure 1) of the upper left corner of the microcircuit card 4 relative to the upper left corner of the support 2 to obtain such an arrangement is 17.89 mm in width and 8.10 mm in length of support 2.
- the card support 2 also carries a pre-cut adapter 6, that is to say connected to the support by means of breakable links 12, 14 described in detail below.
- the adapter 6 comprises an eave 16 (here opening) of substantially complementary shape to the outer circumference of the microcircuit card 4, which thus forms a cavity (here through) adapted to receive the microcircuit card 4 when it comes to be separated from the support 2 as described below.
- the adapter 6 and its recess (or cavity) 16 are placed on the support 2 so that, if the microcircuit card 4 was placed in the recess 16 while the adapter 6 is still carried by the support 2, the support 2 thus provided with the microcircuit card 4 within the adapter 6 constitutes a large format microcircuit card (here of ID-1 format), usable in a symmetrical configuration with respect to the microcircuit card large format mentioned above (which resulted from the proper positioning of the pre-cut microcircuit card 4 in the support 2 before cutting the microcircuit card 4).
- a large format microcircuit card here of ID-1 format
- the procedure is as follows: the adapter 6 is separated from the support 2 ; the small microcircuit card 4 is separated from the support 2; the small-format microcircuit card 4 is mounted in the cavity 16 of the adapter 6, notably thanks to the complementary shape of the cavity and the small-format microcircuit card 4.
- the positioning of the cavity 16 relative to the assembly of the adapter 6 is such that the adapter assembly 6 - small card 4 realizes a medium size card as shown in Figure 2. This is achieved here by arranging (with reference to Figure 2) the upper left corner of the card 4 to 1, 6 mm width and 1, 8 mm the length of the upper left corner of the adapter 6. It can also be noted that the realization of the small size card
- the cumulative width of the arms 24 is equal to the difference in width between the small format and the medium format, here 3 mm: in the example described here, each arm has a width of about 1.5 mm.
- a through cavity 16 makes it possible to achieve all the elements (support 2 - adapter 6 - card 4) with the same thickness (or at least a thickness of the same order), which simplifies the manufacture from the whole.
- the edges of the microcircuit card 4 defining its length are completely hollowed out and the microcircuit card 4 is connected to the support 2 only by means of a breakable hinge 8 which extends over most of its width (on the side of the microcircuit card 4 located on the left side of the support 2 side) and a breakable connecting finger 10 which extends over a reduced portion of the width of the card to microcircuit 4 on the opposite side.
- the width of the microcircuit card 4 which carries the breakable connecting finger 10 also has a mortise 18 in the vicinity of a foolproof portion 20 of the small microcircuit card 4.
- the adapter 6 is connected to the support 2 by means of a breakable hinge 12 which extends along a major part of the width of the adapter 6 and by a breakable connecting finger 14 made at a given point d one of the lengths of the adapter 6.
- the adapter 6 has a pin 22 which projects into the cavity 16 (here of 1.2 mm) in order to cooperate in the mortise 18 of the microcircuit card 4 during the assembly of the adapter 6 and the card microcircuit 4 to form a medium format card as explained above and shown in Figure 2.
- the post 22, of complementary shape to the mortise 18, is made with a base of dimension less than the dimension of its free end, namely here a base 3.4 mm long and a free end extending over 3, 6 mm.
- the tenon 22 - mortise 18 cooperation has the particular advantage of leading to a very good connection of the card 4 in the adapter 6 (and therefore to a very good performance of the assembly after assembly) without requiring a complex geometry for the slices of the card 4 and the cavity 16, these slices being here simply transverse.
- the respective circumferences of the card 4 and the cavity 16 may thus have straight slices, substantially perpendicular to the general plane of the support, and therefore achievable in a particularly simple manner.
- the cavity 16 has in particular a shape complementary to the foolproof portion 20 of the microcircuit card. 4.
- the cavity 16 may, in some places, have dimensions slightly greater than the circumference of the microcircuit card 4, as can be seen in particular in the figures, in which small recesses (not referenced) situated on the side and side other of the breakable finger 10 to facilitate the separation of the microcircuit card 4 of the support 2, leave one day of reduced dimensions between the microcircuit card 4 and the adapter 6, as shown in Figure 2, without this compromises the mechanical strength of the microcircuit card 4 in the adapter 6.
- small recesses also make it possible to ensure that the outline of the microcircuit card 4 obtained at the breakable connecting finger 10 after detaching the card 4 allows the insertion of the card 4 into the cavity 16 at this point. level.
- adapter 6 that is, the medium format microcircuit card formed by adapter assembly 6 - card 4 in the receiving apparatus, because these recesses are present only on a part reduced by one length of the adapter 6.
