CARD INSERT/WITHDRAWAL PORT UNIT, CARD PROCESSING DEVICE, AND AUTOMATED TRANSACTION DEVICE

摘要

[Problem] While preventing illicit reading of magnetic information of a magnetic card, to preserve the performance of an IC contact detecting sensor so as not to be degraded. [Solution] Provided is a card insert/withdrawal port unit, comprising: an aperture in which a card is inserted and from which the card is withdrawn; a magnetic field emitting unit which emits an interference magnetic field; and an IC contact detecting sensor which detects the presence of an IC contact. The IC contact detecting sensor is positioned with the detection direction of the IC contact detecting sensor being in an orientation which does not overlap with the magnetic field direction of the interference magnetic field.
