FINGERPRINT PROTECTOR DEVICE

Abstract

It is a simple and simple invention drawn to fingerprint and finger protection. It aims to protect fingerprint users, exchange machines, food beverage machines, bill payment machines and elevator buttons from germs and viruses on the fingerprint devices and buttons by placing a finger for each user inside a finger cover. Medical paper insulation or other type is not paper and is a medical insulator and the bottom layer of the cover is of the material used in the condom, for example latex, and also possible to be made of light nylon. Both materials show the fingerprint and allow it to be read. The finger cover may be dispensed by an automatic, sensor activated, dispenser device allowing a user to obtain a cover.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This application claims priority to UAE Application No. P6000147/2019 having a filing date of Jan. 26, 2019, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.

FIELD OF TECHNOLOGY

As known, fingerprint devices have become one of the necessary devices used in government departments, hospitals, companies and private institutions to record the date of attendance and departure of employees and also to open some doors and other security uses.

There is nothing to protect users from the dangers of viruses on the fingerprint protection devices, for example, ATMs, bill payment machines, food beverage machines and elevators.

The disinfectants used after using the fingerprint device and other devices do not protect users adequately from the risk of viruses on these devices. All existing disinfectants do not protect users adequately from the presence of viruses and microbes on the surfaces of these devices.

BACKGROUND

Fingerprint devices, ATM, bill payment machines, food beverage machines, coffee and tea makers, fingerprint readers and elevators are now common. Due to the heavy use of fingerprint devices and other devices on a daily basis, fingerprint devices and other devices are often used by all government employees, many private companies and many people. This heavy use makes these devices a source of transmission of viruses causing infectious diseases, whether respiratory or skin or other dangerous viruses, because viruses live on surfaces for varying time times depending on the type of virus.

Existing disinfectants to protect users from the risk of these devices and do not protect users adequately.

SUMMARY

The new concept that the method of protection for fingerprint users is an innovative way to enable the fingerprint device to read the fingerprint accurately and at the same time the finger is isolated from the fingerprint device or other device completely so that there is no direct contact between the finger of the user and the fingerprint device or other device. Direct contact is avoided through finger covers. Each finger cover consists of two materials where the highest medical material and the bottom of the latex used in the condom, where the fingerprint appears clearly and also can be used nylon light, it also shows the fingerprint clearly. Multiple finger covers may be stored inside a sensor sensitive finger cover dispenser device. The sensitive sensor finger cover dispenser device with multiple finger covers can also be placed in the vicinity of fingerprint devices and other devices such as ATM machines, coffee machines and elevators, thus ensuring that no diseases or viruses are transmitted through these devices.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

FIG. 1 depicts a sensor sensitive finger cover dispenser device 100 for storing finger covers in accordance with one embodiment. In one embodiment, the sensor sensitive finger cover dispenser device 100 is a small sensitive sensor device, the length of base 6 is 17 cm, height 8 is 10 cm, and the width of base 7 is 7 cm as shown in FIG. 1. As shown in FIG. 2, inside the device 100 there are multiple finger covers 1. In one embodiment, the plastic cover length of base is 10 cm and width of base 6 cm and height 7. A sensor 5 may be installed inside the sensor sensitive finger cover dispenser device 100.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, a cover 3 of the sensor sensitive finger cover dispenser device 100 is open. The cover 3 may be opened normally when any problem occurs in the sensor sensitive finger cover dispenser device 100. A light is on when the sensor cover 3 is opened and off when the sensor cover 3 is closed. The cover 3 may open when sensor 5 detects movement or the presence of a user and may close when the user is no longer detected or when a finger cover 1 has been removed.

The finger cover 1 is shown in FIG. 3 according to an embodiment. The finger cover 1 may comprise a sensitive medical material 9 as the bottom layer of the finger cover 1. In one embodiment, the sensitive medical material 9 is a latex used in the manufacture of condoms. It is also possible to use transparent nylon material or a light nylon material. All of these materials show the fingerprint, allowing it to be read by the fingerprint device and at the same time keeping the finger and any germs, viruses, or microbes completely isolated.

The sensor sensitive fingerprint cover dispenser device 100 is placed next to fingerprint devices and can also be placed next to other devices such as exchange machines and machines, food and drink machines, bill payment machines and elevator buttons.

The finger cover 1 is shown in FIG. 4 in use according to another embodiment. A user's finger 11 is shown inside an extent 13 of the finger cover 1. For ease of entry, below the finger 11 is a buffer sheet 12 for each cover. The buffer sheet 12 may comprise paper or other material.

Multiple finger covers 1, for example 100 finger covers, may be glued together. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, multiple finger covers 1 are glued together with light adhesive. In some embodiments, the light adhesive may be applied to the buffer sheet 12.

When inserting the finger 11 as shown, only one finger cover 1 is used as shown.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the finger cover 1 comprises a light medical insulating material. The light medical insulating material is the upper part. The lower part may be latex, for example latex as used for a condom as described above. In further embodiments, the lower part may comprise lightweight nylon. The method of pulling each cover as mentioned above.

Referring again to FIG. 2, multiple finger covers 1 are provided. The multiple finger covers 1 may be layered over each other by means of adhesive, which is not a paper material, but this is a medical material. This is from the top. However, the bottom is the latex, for example latex as used in a condom. In further embodiments, the lower material may be Nylon that is lighter than the latex used in a condom. Thus, two materials that show the fingerprint clearly and allow it to be read are disclosed.

The sensor sensitive fingerprint cover dispenser device 100 may be placed next to fingerprint devices or other devices. The operation is as follows, where the employee or any user nears the sensor 5 of the sensor sensitive finger cover dispenser device 100 without touching, the cover 3 of the sensor sensitive finger cover dispenser device 100 opens and the user then inserts his finger into a finger cover 1 and withdraws the finger and finger cover 1. When the finger and finger cover 1 are withdrawn the cover 3 is closed. The sensor 5 may automatically close the cover 3. The employee or any user may then put his finger inside the fingerprint device or other device or otherwise contact the fingerprint device or other device. Thus, each employee or user receives a single finger covert and thus ensure that no transmission of any virus or bacteria occurs. This device and process may be used next to ATMs and elevators and bill payment machines and thus ensure that the germs on the buttons of these machines are completely isolated.

Although the invention has been illustrated and described in greater detail with reference to the preferred exemplary embodiment, the invention is not limited to the examples disclosed, and further variations can be inferred by a person skilled in the art, without departing from the scope of protection of the invention.

For the sake of clarity, it is to be understood that the use of “a” or “an” throughout this application does not exclude a plurality, and “comprising” does not exclude other steps or elements.
