Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a shielding device for shielding of a keypad on a payment terminal for protection against unauthorized visual access to a user-specific identification code in relation to the use of electronic charge cards at such payment terminals.
  • the terminal In order to be able to prevent unauthorized individuals from acquiring knowledge of user-specific codes, such as PIN codes, for credit cards and other charge or service cards by visual spying on the entry of these codes at a payment terminal such as an automaton at a register, an automatic teller machine (an ATM machine) etc., the terminal is often provided with a shielding device surrounding the keypad where the entry of the code is made.
  • PIN codes such as PIN codes
  • an ATM machine an ATM machine
  • Such a shielding device is usually just a raised frame surrounding the keypad area so that the user friendliness of the payment terminal is not compromised.
  • the invention consist of a shielding device of the initially mentioned kind where the shielding device comprises a frame formed body with a basic form that largely corresponds to the keypad area and which is provided with a vertical panel-like shielding device that is essentially encompassing and features an opening at the front for insertion of a hand for operation of the keypad and an opening at the top for visual access by the user.
  • the shielding device is capable of encompassing the keypad of the payment terminal so that the only visual openings are at the top and the front.
  • the user may operate the keypad by inserting his/her hand in the front opening and will be able to monitor his/her entry through the top opening.
  • the shielding device blocks - or at least blurs - the entry from all angles except from the top and the front. However, these two openings are covered by the user himself. In this manner, it is possible to create effective shielding which is quite simple in design and easily retrofitted or removed from the payment terminals.
  • the top opening features a transparent cover panel.
  • the panel offers extra protection against weather conditions just as reflections are created that prevent a person from looking down the opening at the top from almost any angular position.
  • the opening at the top may furthermore or alternatively be provided with vertically oriented lamellas, preferably on the inside of the transparent panel for unidirectional viewing through the top opening.
  • the visibility of the keypad is blurred or blocked at the top from all angular positions.
  • the transparent panel may furthermore or alternatively feature optical processing such as sanding of the surface for creating the unidirectional effect through the top opening. This may also blur the transparency through the top opening.
  • the shielding device may be provided with abutting surfaces for abutment of one or more supporting surfaces surrounding a keypad of a payment terminal so that the shielding device remains stable around the periphery of the keypad.
  • the frame formed shielding device and the supporting surfaces are shaped in a encompassing manner in relation to the shape of the keypad area of a payment terminal. In this manner, it is possible to construct a stable and aestethic and elegant shielding device.
  • the invention consists of a shielding device in accordance with the first aspect of the invention for shielding of the keypad area of a payment terminal where the shielding device is mounted rigidly on a payment terminal such as an ATM machine.
  • Fig. 1 shows a shielding device according to the invention on a payment terminal and Fig. 2 shows a section view through the shielding device according to the invention
  • FIG. 1 shows a payment terminal 2 where charge cards are used, e.g. a Dankort (used in Denmark) - the equivalence being a bank card of any local bank that may only be used domestically.
  • the terminal 2 features a slot 4 for insertion of a charge card, a display 6 and a keypad 8.
  • the periphery of the keypad 8 is provided with a shielding device 10 in order to shield visual access to the keypad 8.
  • the payment terminal 2 may feature a reader of magnetic cards and a reader of the so-called "chip cards” or other types of charge cards.
  • a shielding device 12 may be placed around the keypad 8 as shown in figure 1.
  • This shielding device 12 consists of a tubular surrounding shield box 14 featuring an opening at the top 22 and at the front 24.
  • the shield box 12 works when placed around the keypad 8 of the terminal by insertion of a hand in the opening at the front 24 for operation of the keypad 8. The user may monitor his/her actions through the top opening 22.
  • the user When inserting his/her hand in the front opening 24 the user covers the visual access to the keypad 8 from others through the front opening 24 just as the head and body of the user conceal visual access to the keypad 8 from the top opening 22.
  • the top opening 22 is covered by a transparent panel 26, e.g. in plastic.
  • the shielding device 14 has been shaped into a rectangular basic form that largely corresponds to the shape of the keypad.
  • the shielding device is made of polycarbonate providing great resistance to blows and potential vandalism.
  • the bottom of the invention When applied on e.g. a ATM machine, the bottom of the invention features an abutting surface 16 for abutment of the area around the keypad 8. In this manner, it is possible to create a solid surface for attachment of the shielding device on a payment terminal such as an ATM machine.
  • the designed shielding device forces the user to lean slightly forward when operating the payment terminal so that the need for complete shielding of the keypad 8 has been provided.
  • the window 26 in the top opening 22 is concave. This eliminates a large number of angles at which a person can actually see through the window at the keypad. Thus, the concave glass will create reflections that prevent visual access for anybody other than the user.
  • the top opening 22 may be provided with a number of vertically oriented lamellas 28 that limit the scope of view from which the keypad 8 is visible. This effect may also be obtained by optical sandings, mouldings or similar methods of the glass so that optical interferences or blurrings from particular viewing directions will occur.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de protection (12) protégeant le clavier (8) d'un terminal de carte bancaire (2) contre l'accès visuel non autorisé à un code spécifique d'utilisateur dans le cadre de l'utilisation de cartes de crédit électroniques sur ce terminal de carte bancaire (2). Ce dispositif de protection (12) est constitué d'un cadre (14, 16) dont la forme correspond largement à celle d'une zone de clavier (8) et présente un dispositif de protection adoptant la forme d'un panneau vertical. Une ouverture est ménagée sur la partie avant (24) du dispositif destinée à l'insertion d'une main et une ouverture est ménagée sur la partie supérieure (22) permettant l'accès visuel. Ainsi, le clavier est protégé de sorte que les personnes non autorisées ne puissent voir le code NIP du détenteur de la carte de crédit qu'il saisit sur un terminal de carte bancaire.
