ABSTRACT:
A composite card reader (11) used for IC cards, magnetic cards and the like to which the card is manually inserted and extracted is disclosed. The composite type card reader (11) has a shutter lever (28) for opening and closing a card inlet (13), a locking mechanism for locking the card by closing the shutter lever (28), and a lock releasing mechanism for releasing the lock by opening the shutter lever (28). A shutter closing lever (32) included in the locking mechanism and a shutter opening lever (30) included in the lock releasing mechanism can be alternately engaged with a roller (38) included in a link mechanism (29) coupled to the shutter lever (28). In order to maintain the lock released state by the lock releasing mechanism, a shutter linked lever (80) which is moved in relation to the shutter lever (28) has its position regulated by a slider (19) which slides in response to the insertion of the card (12). A controlling portion including a CPU (1 ) is provided, which prohibits operation of the locking mechanism when insertion of a magnetic card is detected by a magnetic head (26). The magnetic head (26) is supported by a frame (62) having a projection (69) on one end, which can swing with a contact point between the projection (69) and a support base (65) being a support point of swinging.
