One film 8 has an IC installed in a portion corresponding to the mounting portion 3.
A plurality of terminal holes IO are formed into which each terminal 7 of the chip 6 faces.

The mounting portion 3 is attached from all sides to the periphery of the mounting portion 3 of the card body 1 and to the portions corresponding to the periphery of the mounting portion 3 of the two films 8.9 attached to both the front and back surfaces of the card body 1. A plurality of surrounding deformation prevention holes it are transparently provided.

The deformation prevention holes 11 are formed in pairs opposite to each other with the mounting portion 3 interposed therebetween, and each pair of deformation prevention holes 11 is arranged parallel to both orthogonal sides of the card body l or each film 8.9. There is. Also, between each deformation prevention hole 11 and the adjacent deformation prevention hole 11, a beam-shaped connecting part 12 connecting the mounting part 3 and the card body l or other parts of each film 8.9 is provided diagonally. It is formed in the direction. Therefore, each deformation prevention hole 11 has a trapezoidal shape.

The IC card having the above configuration is produced, for example, as follows. First, the IC module 2 is assembled and installed in the insertion hole 4 of the card body l, and then both the films 8 and 9 are pasted on both the front and back surfaces in a state where they are aligned, so that the IC module 2 is attached to both the films 8 and 9. It is fixed to the mounting part 3 in a state where it is clamped by .9. After the card body 1 and both films 8 and 9 are laminated and adhered in this manner, the deformation prevention holes 11 are punched out around the mounting portion 3 to obtain a desired IC card.

Now, when the IC card of this embodiment is bent by an external force, the bending deformation caused by this extends to the area where the deformation prevention hole 11 is formed, but the deformation occurs at the joint part a between the connecting part 12 and the mounting part 3. It is separated and hardly reaches the attachment part 3.

In the above embodiment, since the deformation prevention holes 11 are also formed in both films 8.9 that cover the card body 1, the deformation prevention holes 11 are visible from the outside, which may impair the design. As a countermeasure for this problem, for example, as shown in FIG.
It is also possible to make the deformation prevention hole 11 invisible from the outside by attaching it to both the front and back sides of the card body 1 without providing the hole 1. In this case as well, if thin films are used as both films 8 and 9 to absorb bending distortion, the same effect as in the embodiment described above can be achieved.

Further, as the dimensions of the connecting portions 12 between the respective deformation prevention holes 11 are made smaller, the deformation prevention effect becomes more pronounced, but on the other hand, the strength of the connecting portions 12 becomes weaker. Therefore, in practice, approximately 70% to 90% of the periphery of the IC module 2 is separated from the central portion of the card body 1, thereby ensuring practical strength.

Furthermore, as the deformation prevention hole 11, various embodiments are possible, such as a trapezoidal hole as in each of the above embodiments, and a hole in which small holes are arranged around the mounting portion 3.

<Effects of the Invention> As described above, according to the present invention, the IC in the card body
Since a deformation prevention hole is formed around the mounting part of the module to surround the mounting part, when the card body is deformed due to bending, the deformation is caused by the I/O inside the card body.
It is possible to prevent this from being transmitted to the mounting portion of the C module, and the IC module is hardly affected. Therefore, it is possible to improve the durability and reliability of this type of IC card, which is often bent during use or carrying. In addition, since the structure is relatively simple, it can be easily manufactured and manufacturing costs can be reduced.
