A shield plate (110) is rotatably mounted between the pair of engaging elements (103a, 103b), and is pivoted at various pivoting angles along a rotation axis to shield the card reader in particular position. An antenna module is arranged within the shield plate for non-contact detection of an object with label or mark, for further processing of information and data on label or mark.
