DIVISIBLE MODULE CARD WHICH IS RESISTANT TO BENDING STRESSES

摘要

The invention relates to a card comprising a plastic card body (2)and a divisible module (3) which is fixed to said card body (2) by three links (12, 13, 14). Said divisible module (3) comprises a thin, essentially parallelepipedic and rectangular plastic module body (4), one of whose corner edges (6) is cut in such a way that it forms an element for preventing incorrect positioning; and a microcontroller which is electrically connected to contact pads (5) which are flush with the surface of the module (3). According to the invention, the card (1) is characterised in that a first link (12) connects the cut edge (6) of the module (3) for preventing incorrect positioning to the card body (2). The invention is particularly suitable for chip cards corresponding to the ISO format.
