Carrier for receiving chip card, has plungers mounting rectangular data carrier body of portable data carrier at preset support points, where plungers are arranged to achieve point-shaped contact surface with data carrier body

摘要

The carrier (100) has plungers (104-104''') mounting a rectangular data carrier body (10) of a portable data carrier at preset support points (30-30'''). The plungers are arranged to achieve a point-shaped contact surface with the data carrier body. The plungers are spherically convexly or pointedly designed at a side on which a mount of the data carrier body is provided. Corner guides (101-101''') position the data carrier body relative to the carrier. A control device controls the plungers so that vibration is transferred to the data carrier body. An independent claim is also included for a method for operating a carrier.
