<p>A card reader card capture clamp (20) having a base plate (9) for slidably receiving a card (100). A switch detects movement of the card past a predetermined position and produces a 'card insertion' signal representative thereof. A clamp plate (1) pivots between a clamped position in which the card is clamped between the two plates, and an unclamped position in which the card is movable relative to the plates. The clamp plate is biased into the unclamped position in the absence of production of the card insertion signal. A solenoid (10) coupled between the two plates is actuated upon production of the card insertion signal to overcome the biasing and move the clamp plate from the unclamped into the clamped position. The switch includes two switch arms (4) respectively pivotally mounted on opposed rearward ends of the clamp plate.</p> |
