Card case, IC card, and IC card unit
First Claim
1. A card case, which encases an IC card having a functional section that contains a biometric information-acquiring portion for acquiring biometric information and carries out communication with an outer part of the card when the biometric information acquired at the biometric information-acquiring portion is authenticated and having a power section that supplies power to the functional section, the card case comprising:
- a case body that can encase the IC card and has an opening at a position two-dimensionally overlapping with the biometric information-acquiring portion so that the biometric information-acquiring portion of the encased IC card is exposed outside the case;
a lid that covers the opening and is capable of opening and closing;
a functional section electrode that is provided on the case body and is electrically connected to the functional section of the IC card encased in the case body;
a power section electrode that is provided on the case body and is electrically connected to the power section of the IC card encased in the case body; and
a connection section that electrically connects the functional section electrode with the power section electrode in a state that the lid is open.

6. An IC card unit comprising:
-
an IC card including;
a substrate;
a functional section that is provided on the substrate and includes a biometric information-acquiring portion for acquiring biometric information and communicates with an outer part of the card when the biometric information acquired at the biometric information-acquiring portion is authenticated;
a power section that is provided on the substrate and supplies power to the functional section;
a functional section terminal that is provided on the substrate and is electrically connected to the functional section; and
a power section terminal that is provided on the substrate and is electrically connected to the power section; and
a card case including;
a case body that can encase the IC card and has an opening at a position two-dimensionally overlapping with the biometric information-acquiring portion so that the biometric information-acquiring portion of the encased IC card is exposed outside the case;
a lid that covers the opening and is capable of opening and closing;
a functional section electrode that is provided on the case body and is electrically connected to the functional section of the IC card encased in the case body;
a power section electrode that is provided on the case body and is electrically connected to the power section of the IC card encased in the case body; and
a connection section that electrically connects the functional section electrode with the power section electrode in a state that the lid is open.
