Abstract
A chip card reader includes a frame, reading contact elements, and an end position switch which includes two switching contact elements arranged to either close or open upon reaching of the reading position by a chip card. The contact elements are identical in both the arrangement in which the elements open to indicate reaching of the reading position by the chip card and the arrangement in which the elements close to indicate reaching of the reading position by the chip card. The frames may also be identical in the opener arrangement and the closer arrangement.
