ABSTRACT:
An IC card issuing apparatus has a feeding mechanism which feed an IC card supplied form a card supply device along a feeding path. A head body of a head unit has an abutting portion and contact pins. When an IC card is fed along the feeding path, the leading end of the IC card abuts against the abutting portion of the head body and pushes it. By being pushed by the IC card, the head body moves from a standby position to a discharge position through a connect position. In the standby position and discharge position, the contact pins are spaced apart from connect terminals of the IC card, and in the connect position, the contact pins bring into contact with the connect terminals of the IC card.
