Disclosed herein is an information card, which includes a metallic casing and at least one semiconductor chip seated in the metallic casing. A conductor strip, which extends from each of contacts of the semiconductor chip, is disposed in such a way that it can be brought into contact with a signal input/output terminal of a separate signal input/output unit. An elastic magnetic member is provided in a cavity of the metallic casing at a location corresponding to each conductor strip. The elastic ...

The invention pertains to a protective holder for information bearing cards, such as credit cards, wherein the card includes a magnetic strip affixed to the rear face upon which information is magnetically stored. The holder comprises a substantially flat body having folded-over lips at the upper and lower lateral edges which define pockets for receiving the lateral edges of the card. Adjacent at least one of the holder lateral edges is a card supporting surface projecting beyond the primary bod...

A magnetic card comprises (1) a planar substrate having at least a surface layer of a thermoplastic resin, (2) a magnetic layer disposed at at least one part of a surface of the planar substrate, (3) a color layer disposed on the magnetic layer, and (4) a pattern layer disposed on the color layer. In this magnetic card, the color of the magnetic layer which does not contribute to an attractive appearance is hidden under the color layer, and, because the pattern layer is disposed on the color lay...

A card holder for holding cards, such as Bingo cards, having a projecting platform and having parallel, slotted members, positioned between two end members, and aligned to receive cards in vertical alignment, so that the playing numbers for each letter will be readily viewed. A modified form provides means for stacking the holders.

This disclosure pertains to a housing, fabricated from a transparent material, containing a plurality of signs bearing safety warning and greeting indicia on the faces thereof, adapted to be carried in a motor vehicle. An opening in the housing permits the selective repositioning or the slidable removal of the signs, utilizing tabs or finger-grip extensions affixed to a marginal edge of the signs. The signs may be selectively removed from the housing for display by manually holding the sign or d...

A card frame kit includes end lates (10a, 10b) and cross rails (16) that can be assembled together to form the card frame. The kit is packaged in a box (30) with the end plates (10a, 10b) laid flat. When the kit is to be assembled, the box (30) is used as a temporary, disposable jig. To this end, inserts (40) that receive the cross-rails (16) comprise slots (44) in which the side plates (10a, 10b) can be stood up in the relative orientation they are to adopt in the assembled card frame. The asse...

A card sealed by using a composition which includes an acrylate compound polymerizable by an ionizing radiation and 1 to 40 parts by weight of a polyfunctional isocyanate compound per 100 parts by weight of the acrylate compound and can be cured by irradiation of the ionizing radiation and a process for producing a card disposing a coating layer of the composition between a substrate sheet and a cover sheet and curing the coating layer by irradiation of an ionizing radiation.

A tray for containing a quantity of data processing type cards is provided with a removable partition member which is mounted for displacement in the tray to engage the cards at selected locations. The lower portion of the partition member slides in a through slot in the bottom of the tray, and a series of teeth on the tray bottom are engaged by releasable catch means on the partition member to lock the partition in preselected locations.
