Personalization station for programming integrated circuit cards
First Claim
1. A personalization station for an integrated circuit card programming device for programming integrated circuit cards, the personalization station comprising:
- a personalization station base operably connectable to an integrated circuit card programming device base;
card receiving means for grasping the integrated circuit card to be programmed, the card receiving means having a contact for interfacing with an integrated circuit disposed on the card;
reversible mounting means for mounting the card receiving means on the base, the reversible mounting means being capable of mounting the card receiving means on the base in a first position wherein the contact is disposed on a first side of the base and a second position wherein the receiving means is rotated proximately 180°
about the longitudinal axis so that the contact is disposed on a second and opposite side of the base.

Abstract
An integrated card programming device for programing an integrated circuit card. The integrated circuit card programing device has a base, a card input platform, and a transport. The transport is operably connected to the base and rotatably mounted about a rotational axis. The transport includes a transport arm radially disposed about the rotational axis. A card picker carriage is mounted on the transport arm. The card picker carriage has two picker arms. One or more personalization stations for programming an integrated circuit card are radially disposed about the transport. The personalization stations can program the cards to the French or ISO standards and are rotatable 180°.
