Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9824047A1] A smart card reader (10) is disclosed having a base (12) which is profiled to have a card receiving area (20). Contacts (22, 23) are disposed inside a contact receiving (32) of the base and are pivotable about a leg (40). Insertion of a smart card (60) causes the contacts (22, 23) to pivot about the pivot point (42) in order to cause contact points (50) to engage contact pads of the smart card (60).
