Description

  The present invention relates to a non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body capable of receiving information from the outside using electromagnetic waves as a medium, and transmitting information to the outside, such as an information recording medium for RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification).

  In recent years, non-contact type data receivers that can receive information from the outside using electromagnetic waves as a medium, such as information recording media for RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) applications, such as non-contact IC tags, and can transmit information to the outside. A sender is proposed.

An IC label, which is an example of a non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body, generates an electromotive force in an antenna by a resonance action when receiving an electromagnetic wave from a reader / writer, and the IC chip in the IC label is activated by this electromotive force. This information is converted into a signal, and this signal is transmitted from the antenna of the IC label.
A signal transmitted from the IC label is received by the antenna of the reader / writer, sent to the data processing device via the controller, and data processing such as identification is performed.

  In order for these IC labels to operate, the electromagnetic waves transmitted from the reader / writer must be sufficiently taken into the antenna of the IC label, and an electromotive force greater than the operating electromotive force of the IC chip must be induced. Is attached to the surface of the metal article, the magnetic flux is parallel to the surface of the metal article on the surface of the metal article. For this reason, since the magnetic flux crossing the antenna of the IC label is reduced and the induced electromotive force is lowered, there is a problem that the IC chip is not operated due to being lower than the operating electromotive force of the IC chip (for example, see Non-Patent Document 1). .)

  FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram showing the flow of magnetic flux when an IC label is placed on the surface of a metal article. Since the magnetic flux 102 generated from the reader / writer 101 is parallel on the surface of the metal article 103, the magnetic flux passing through the antenna 105 of the IC label 104 placed on the surface of the metal article 103 is reduced and induced by the antenna 105. Therefore, the IC chip 106 does not operate.

  In order to operate the IC chip even when placed on a metal article, an antenna is wound around the ferrite core, and the axis of the antenna is parallel to the direction of the magnetic flux on the surface of the metal article. There has been proposed a method of increasing the induced electromotive force by increasing the magnetic flux passing through the antenna surface (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

FIG. 6 is a perspective view of an IC tag according to an embodiment of Patent Document 1. An antenna 111 is wound around a square ferrite core 115, and a ferrite core is interposed through a base substrate 114 in a portion where the antenna 111 is not wound. An IC chip 112 and a capacitor 113 are mounted on 115.
When the flat portion (the lower surface in FIG. 3) of the square ferrite core 115 of the IC tag is attached to the surface of the metal article, magnetic flux parallel to the surface of the metal article passes through the ferrite core 115, so Since it passes at a right angle, the required induced voltage is generated and the IC chip 112 is activated.

  On the other hand, an antenna is formed in a flat shape, and magnetic flux is passed through a magnetic core member provided on the lower surface of the antenna, thereby causing magnetic flux to pass through the antenna formed in a flat shape and generating an induced electromotive force in the antenna. In addition, there is a proposal to provide a conductive member on the lower surface of the magnetic core member to prevent the effect of the article to be placed on the IC label (for example, see Patent Document 2).

FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view showing an embodiment of Patent Document 2. In FIG. The IC label antenna 121 is composed of a conductor 121a wound in a spiral shape in a plane, and a plate-like or sheet-like magnetic core member 123 bonded to one surface of the IC label antenna 121, and the magnetic core member 123. A conductive material portion 124 is provided on the lower surface of the.
The magnetic core member 123 crosses a part of the IC label antenna 121 on the other surface of the base substrate on which the IC label antenna 121 is provided, and has one end on the outside of the IC label antenna 121. Then, the other end portion is laminated so as to come to the central portion (inside) 122 of the IC label antenna 121.

  When the magnetic core member 123 is laminated in this way, the magnetic flux enters from one end portion of the magnetic core member 123 and escapes from the other end portion, so that the magnetic flux emitted from the other end portion is the IC label antenna 121. And an induced electromotive force is generated in the IC label antenna 121 formed by the conductor 121a. For this reason, even if this IC label is attached to the surface of the article 125 and the magnetic flux direction around the IC label becomes parallel to the surface of the IC label antenna 121, the magnetic flux passes through the IC label antenna 121. . This induces a voltage sufficient to operate the IC chip, so that the IC chip operates reliably.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the conductive member 124 is laminated and bonded so as to cover the magnetic core member 123 on the other surface of the base substrate on which the IC label antenna 121 is provided, the conductive member 124 is attached to the article. Will block the passage of radio waves. Therefore, the IC label antenna 121 is less affected regardless of whether or not the article 125 is a metal, and even if the surface of the article 125 is made of metal, an eddy current generated on the metal surface. Therefore, even if the RFID tag is attached to the metal article 125, the RFID tag operates reliably.

However, in Patent Document 1, if the diameter of the antenna 111 is increased in order to increase the magnetic flux passing through the antenna 111 in order to increase the induced electromotive force, there is a problem that the thickness of the IC label increases.
On the other hand, Patent Document 2 has a problem that the thickness of the IC label increases in this case because the magnetic core member and the conductive member are provided on one surface of the base substrate.

Further, when the thickness of the IC label increases, there is a problem that the flexibility of the IC label is impaired. When the flexibility of the IC label is impaired, it becomes difficult to attach the IC label to the curved surface of the article. In addition, when the IC label is attached to or peeled off from the article, an excessive force is applied to the IC label, which may damage the antenna or the IC chip.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and suppresses an increase in the thickness of a non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body, is excellent in flexibility, and can be used for an IC chip even in contact with an article containing at least a metal. An object of the present invention is to provide a contactless data receiving / transmitting body that can be used by generating an electromotive force sufficiently higher than an operating electromotive force.

  According to such a configuration, the magnetic material layer is disposed on the base substrate so as to cover the antenna except for the IC chip and the vicinity thereof, whereby the non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body is an article including at least a metal. Even when in contact with the magnetic field, the magnetic flux is captured by the antenna through the magnetic layer, so that an induced electromotive force sufficient to operate the IC chip can be generated in the antenna. In addition, the magnetic layer is obtained by impregnating a resin with flat magnetic fine particles, and by adjusting the mixing ratio of the magnetic fine particles and the resin, the magnetic layer can be increased in permeability and kept insulative. Therefore, by forming the magnetic layer so as to cover the antenna, the function as a protective layer is exhibited. Further, the magnetic layer is disposed on the base substrate so as to cover the antenna except for the IC chip and the vicinity thereof, so that the non-contact type data transmitter / receiver is brought into contact with an article containing at least a metal. When bent, the magnetic layer can easily follow the change in shape, and as a result, problems such as delamination between components can be prevented.

  It is preferable that a gap is provided between the side surface of the IC chip and the side surface of the magnetic layer.

  According to such a configuration, when the non-contact type data transmitting / receiving body is bent so as to be in contact with an article containing at least a metal, the IC chip and the magnetic layer are difficult to contact with each other. It can be prevented from being damaged.

  The side surface of the magnetic layer at a position facing the side surface of the IC chip is gradually increased from the surface of the magnetic layer in contact with the antenna to the surface opposite to the surface of the magnetic layer in contact with the antenna. It is preferable that the taper shape has a large opening diameter.

  According to such a configuration, either the surface of the magnetic layer opposite to the surface in contact with the base substrate or the surface of the base substrate opposite to the surface in contact with the magnetic layer may be used as a surface to be attached to the article. When the non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body is bent to come into contact with an article containing at least a metal, the side surface of the IC chip and the side surface of the magnetic layer are difficult to contact with each other. Can be prevented.

  The contactless data receiving / transmitting body of the present invention is in contact with an article containing at least a metal by providing a magnetic layer on the base substrate so as to cover the antenna except for the IC chip and the vicinity thereof. Even in this case, since the magnetic flux is captured by the antenna through the magnetic layer, an induced electromotive force sufficient to operate the IC chip can be generated in the antenna. In addition, the magnetic layer is obtained by impregnating a resin with flat magnetic fine particles, and by adjusting the mixing ratio of the magnetic fine particles and the resin, the magnetic layer can be increased in permeability and kept insulative. Therefore, by forming the magnetic layer so as to cover the antenna and the IC chip, the function as a protective layer is also exhibited. Further, the surface of the magnetic layer opposite to the surface in contact with the base substrate or the surface of the base substrate opposite to the surface in contact with the magnetic layer may be a non-contact type. When the data receiving / transmitting body is bent to come into contact with an article containing at least a metal, the side surface of the IC chip and the side surface of the magnetic layer are difficult to contact with each other. can do.

  Hereinafter, a non-contact type data transmitting / receiving body embodying the present invention will be described in detail.

Furthermore, the thickness of the IC chip 13 is larger than the thickness of the antenna 12.

  In the non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body 10, the antenna 12 and the IC chip 13 constituting the inlet 14 are connected to each other by connecting the end portions of the antenna 12 to the bipolar terminals of the IC chip 13. is there.

  Furthermore, the magnetic material layer 15 being arranged on the base substrate 11 so as to cover the antenna 12 except for the IC chip 13 and the vicinity thereof means to cover the antenna 12 so as to be hidden. It is more preferable that the magnetic layer 15 covers the antenna 12 so that the surface (open surface) of the magnetic layer 15 is flat.

The magnetic layer 15 is composed of a composite containing at least a filler made of magnetic fine particles in a resin. In such a magnetic layer 15, when the non-contact type data transmitting / receiving body 10 is viewed from the one surface 11 a side of the base substrate 11, a large number of magnetic fine particles constituting the magnetic layer 15 are at least partially. One magnetic body which overlaps with each other and is connected is formed.
In addition, between the antennas 12 provided in a coil shape, it is arranged so as to be filled with the composite that forms the magnetic layer 15, and all or part of the magnetic fine particles that form the composite are part of the antenna 12. Arranged in between.

  As the base substrate 11, at least the surface layer portion is made of woven fabric, nonwoven fabric, mat, paper or the like made of inorganic fibers such as glass fiber or alumina fiber, or a combination thereof, or organic fibers such as polyester fibers or polyamide fibers.

It selects from well-known things, such as what gave. Among these, an electrically insulating film or sheet made of polyethylene terephthalate or polyimide is preferably used.

  The antenna 12 is formed by screen printing in a predetermined pattern on one surface 11a of the base substrate 11 using polymer-type conductive ink, or is formed by etching a conductive foil.

  As the polymer type conductive ink in the present invention, for example, conductive fine particles such as silver powder, gold powder, platinum powder, aluminum powder, palladium powder, rhodium powder, carbon powder (carbon black, carbon nanotube, etc.) are mixed in the resin composition. The thing which was done is mentioned.

If a thermosetting resin is used as the resin composition, the polymer conductive ink becomes a thermosetting type capable of forming a coating film forming the antenna 12 at 200 ° C. or less, for example, about 100 to 150 ° C. The electric current path of the coating film forming the antenna 12 is formed when the conductive fine particles forming the coating film contact each other, and the resistance value of the coating film is on the order of 10 ⁻⁵ Ω · cm.

  Further, as the polymer type conductive ink in the present invention, known ones such as a photo-curing type, a permeation drying type, and a solvent volatilization type are used in addition to the thermosetting type.

  The photocurable polymer type conductive ink contains a photocurable resin in the resin composition and has a short curing time, so that the production efficiency can be improved. Examples of the photocurable polymer conductive ink include, for example, a thermoplastic resin alone or a blend resin composition of a thermoplastic resin and a crosslinkable resin (especially a crosslinkable resin composed of polyester and isocyanate) and 60 masses of conductive fine particles. % Or more and 10% by mass or more of a polyester resin, that is, a solvent volatile type or a crosslinked / thermoplastic combined type (however, the thermoplastic type is 50% by mass or more), or a thermoplastic resin Or a blend resin composition of a thermoplastic resin and a crosslinkable resin (especially a crosslinkable resin composed of polyester and isocyanate), in which a polyester resin is blended in an amount of 10% by mass or more, ie, a crosslinkable type or a crosslinkable / thermal A plastic combination type is preferably used.

Further, when flexibility is required by the non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body 10, and as a result, further bending resistance is required in the antenna 12, a flexibility imparting agent is blended in the polymer type conductive ink. May be.
Examples of the flexibility imparting agent include a polyester flexibility imparting agent, an acrylic flexibility imparting agent, a urethane flexibility imparting agent, a polyvinyl acetate flexibility imparting agent, and a thermoplastic elastomer flexibility.

The composite that forms the magnetic layer 15 is roughly composed of a filler made of magnetic fine particles and a resin.
This composite is formed into a form in which magnetic fine particles are dispersed almost uniformly by applying and drying a magnetic paint containing a filler made of magnetic fine particles, a resin, an additive, and a solvent.

  In addition, as the magnetic fine particles, powdered magnetic powder, or flat flakes obtained by forming the powder by refining the magnetic powder with a ball mill or the like and then mechanically flattening the powder The magnetic substance flake which consists of is mentioned. Among these, flat magnetic particles are preferable. If the magnetic fine particles are flat, when the non-contact type data transmitting / receiving body 10 is viewed from one surface side of the base substrate 11, a large number of the magnetic fine particles constituting the magnetic layer 15 are at least part of each other. It is easy to form one magnetic body that is overlapped and connected. Therefore, the magnetic flux is more easily captured by the antenna through the magnetic layer.

  Furthermore, examples of the magnetic powder include sendust (Fe—Si—Al alloy) powder, carbonyl iron powder, atomized powder such as permalloy, and reduced iron powder. Examples of the magnetic flakes include flakes obtained by refining the magnetic powder with a ball mill or the like and molding the powder, and then mechanically flattening the powder, or a molten iron-based or cobalt-based amorphous alloy. Examples include flakes obtained by colliding with a water-cooled copper plate. Among these, as the magnetic fine particles, magnetic powder or magnetic flakes made of Sendust are preferable, and magnetic flakes made of Sendust are more preferable. If the magnetic fine particles are magnetic powder or magnetic flakes made of Sendust, the saturation magnetic flux density and magnetic permeability of the magnetic layer 15 containing these as constituent elements are increased, so that more magnetic flux passes through the magnetic layer and passes through the antenna. It becomes easy to be captured.

  The shape of the magnetic fine particles constituting the magnetic layer 15 does not have to be either powdery or flat. The magnetic layer 15 may include a mixture of powdered magnetic particles and flat magnetic particles. Even if magnetic particles having different shapes are mixed, the non-contact data transmission / reception according to the present invention is possible. The body is fully effective.

  Examples of the resin constituting the composite that forms the magnetic layer 15 include thermoplastic resins, thermosetting resins, and reactive resins.

  Examples of the thermosetting resin or reactive resin include phenol resin, epoxy resin, polyurethane curable resin, urea resin, melamine resin, alkyd resin, silicone resin, polyamine resin, urea formaldehyde resin, and the like.

  In addition, the composite that forms the magnetic layer 15 may contain various pressure-sensitive adhesives in order to impart adhesiveness to the magnetic layer 15.

  Further, examples of the additive contained in the magnetic paint used for forming the composite that forms the magnetic layer 15 include a viscosity modifier, an antifoaming agent, and a leveling agent.

  Furthermore, examples of the solvent contained in the magnetic paint include organic solvents such as cyclohexanone, acetone, benzene, and ethyl.

  The conductive portion 16 is formed by screen printing or the like in a predetermined pattern using the same polymer type conductive ink as that used for forming the antenna 12 described above.

  Further, when more flexibility is required for the non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body 10, it is preferable to add a flexibility imparting agent to the polymer type conductive ink forming the conductive portion 16. In this way, since the bending resistance of the conductive portion 16 is improved, even if the non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body 10 is stuck on the curved surface of the article, the conductive portion 16 is damaged and the non-contact type data receiving / receiving body 10 is damaged. It is possible to prevent the communication function of the transmitter 10 from being impaired.

  As described above, according to the non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body 10 of this embodiment, the magnetic layer 15 is arranged on the base substrate 11 so as to cover the antenna 12 except for the IC chip 13 and the vicinity thereof. As a result, even when the non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body 10 is in contact with an article containing at least a metal, the magnetic flux is captured by the antenna 12 through the magnetic layer 15, so that the IC chip 13 operates on the antenna 12. Sufficient induced electromotive force can be generated. Moreover, the magnetic layer 15 is obtained by impregnating a resin with magnetic fine particles, and by adjusting the mixing ratio of the magnetic fine particles and the resin, the magnetic permeability of the magnetic layer 15 can be increased and the insulating property can be maintained. Therefore, by forming the magnetic layer 15 so as to cover the antenna 12, the function as the protective layer is also exhibited. Furthermore, except for the IC chip 13 and the vicinity thereof, the magnetic layer 15 is disposed on the base substrate 11 so as to cover the antenna 12, so that the contactless data transmitting / receiving body 10 includes at least a metal. When bent to contact the article, the magnetic layer 15 can easily follow the change in shape, and as a result, problems such as delamination between components can be prevented.

  Further, a gap is provided between the side surface 13a of the IC chip 13 and the side surface 15b of the magnetic layer 15, and further, the side surface 15b of the magnetic layer 15 at a position facing the side surface 13a of the IC chip 13 is replaced with a magnetic material. If the taper is formed such that the opening diameter gradually increases from the surface of the layer 15 in contact with the antenna 12 toward the one surface 15 a of the magnetic layer 15, the magnetic surface of the one surface 15 a of the magnetic layer 15 or the magnetic property of the base substrate 11. When any of the surfaces opposite to the surface in contact with the body layer 15 is attached to the article, the IC chip is formed when the non-contact type data transmitting / receiving body 10 is bent so as to contact the article containing at least a metal. Since the side surface 13a of 13 and the side surface 15b of the magnetic layer 15 are difficult to contact, it is possible to prevent the IC chip 13 from being damaged due to the contact between both.

  In this embodiment, the coil-shaped antenna 12 and the IC chip 13 are provided separately on one surface 11a of the base substrate 11, and the non-contact type data transmitting / receiving body 10 is connected to each other. Although illustrated, the contactless data receiving / transmitting body of the present invention is not limited to this. In the contactless data receiving / transmitting body of the present invention, an IC chip may be mounted on the antenna, or the antenna may be formed on the IC chip.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, although the coil antenna was illustrated as the antenna 12, the non-contact-type data transmission / reception body of this invention is not limited to this. In the non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body of the present invention, a system such as a pole antenna, a bent pole antenna, a loop antenna, or a loop antenna is adopted as long as it employs electromagnetic induction and a microwave radio wave system. However, as long as an electromotive force is obtained, there may be a difference in the shape of the antenna.

(Manufacturing method of non-contact type data transmitter / receiver)
Next, with reference to FIG. 2, the manufacturing method of the non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body of this embodiment will be described.
First, as shown in FIG. 2A, an antenna 12 having a predetermined thickness and a predetermined pattern is provided on one surface 11a of the base substrate 11 (antenna forming step).

  In this step, when the antenna 12 is formed of a polymer type conductive ink, the polymer type conductive ink is printed on the one surface 11a of the base substrate 11 so as to have a predetermined thickness and a predetermined pattern by a screen printing method. Thereafter, the polymer type conductive ink is dried and cured to form the antenna 12 having a predetermined thickness and a predetermined pattern.

Further, when the antenna 12 is formed of a conductive foil, the following procedure is followed.
After the conductive foil is bonded to the entire surface of one surface 11a of the base substrate 11, an etching resistant paint is printed on the conductive foil in a predetermined pattern by a silk screen printing method. After the etching resistant paint is dried and solidified, it is immersed in an etching solution to dissolve and remove the copper foil to which the etching resistant paint is not applied, and the copper foil portion to which the etching resistant paint is applied is applied to one side of the base substrate 11. The antenna 12 having a predetermined pattern is formed by remaining on the surface.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 2B, a magnetic paint containing a filler made of magnetic fine particles, a resin, an additive, and a solvent is applied to one surface 11a of the base substrate 11 by a screen printing method or the like. It is applied to such an extent that the antenna 12 is slightly hidden, or is applied to the extent that it is sufficiently hidden. After the magnetic paint is applied, the magnetic layer 15 is formed by allowing it to stand at room temperature or by heating and drying and solidifying at a predetermined temperature for a predetermined time (magnetic layer forming step). In this magnetic layer forming step, the side surface 15b of the magnetic layer 15 at a position facing the side surface 13a of the IC chip 13 is connected to the one surface 15a of the magnetic layer 15 from the surface in contact with the antenna 12 of the magnetic layer 15. The magnetic material layer 15 is formed by applying a magnetic paint to one surface 11a of the base substrate 11 so that the magnetic material layer 15 is opened so that the opening diameter gradually increases toward the surface.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 2 (c), the contacts 12b and 12b provided on the antenna 12 and the contacts (not shown) provided on the IC chip 13 are made of a conductive paste or a conductive material made of solder. Then, the IC chip 13 is mounted on the one surface 11a of the base substrate 11 to obtain the non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body 10 (IC chip mounting step).

  As described above, the side surface 15b of the magnetic layer 15 located at the position facing the side surface 13a of the IC chip 13 gradually increases from the surface in contact with the antenna 12 of the magnetic layer 15 toward the one surface 15a of the magnetic layer 15. After forming the magnetic body layer 15 by applying a magnetic paint to one surface 11a of the base substrate 11 so that the opening diameter is tapered and the magnetic body layer 15 is opened, the IC chip 13 is formed. If mounted, the IC chip 13 can be mounted after the formation of the antenna 12 to the formation of the magnetic layer 15 is performed in the printing process. Therefore, since it is not necessary to provide another process in the middle of the printing process, the manufacturing time can be shortened, and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

  In this embodiment, the method of forming the antenna 12 is exemplified by the screen printing method and the etching method, but the present invention is not limited to these. In the present invention, the antenna can be formed by a vapor deposition method or an ink jet printing method.

In FIG. 4, the same components as those of the non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body 10 shown in FIG.

  The non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body 30 of this embodiment differs from the above-described non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body 10 in that both end portions 12c and 12c of the antenna 12 and the vicinity thereof, and the IC chip 13 and the vicinity thereof. A magnetic layer 15 is disposed on the base substrate 11 so as to cover the antenna 12 except for the region, and further, a first part 16A that connects both end portions 12c and 12c of the antenna 12 and forms a part of the conductive portion 16. Is provided on one surface 15 a of the magnetic layer 15.

  The conductive portion 16 includes a first portion 16A and a second portion 16B provided integrally, and the second portion 16B is provided on one surface 15a of the magnetic layer 15 from both end portions 12c and 12c of the antenna 12. The first portion 16A is provided.

  In this way, the magnetic layer 15 is obtained by impregnating the resin with magnetic fine particles. By adjusting the mixing ratio of the magnetic fine particles and the resin, the magnetic permeability of the magnetic layer 15 is increased, and the insulating property is increased. Since the magnetic layer 15 also serves as an element of the insulating film, the first portion 16A of the conductive portion 16 connecting the both end portions 12c and 12c of the antenna 12 is placed on the one surface 15a of the magnetic layer 15. By providing the first portion 16A of the conductive portion 16 to connect both end portions 12c and 12c of the antenna 12, it is not necessary to form a conductive portion on the coil portion 12a of the antenna 12 via an insulating film. Since the elements (layers, films, etc.) constituting the contact-type data receiving / transmitting body 30 are reduced, when the non-contact-type data receiving / transmitting body 30 is bent to come into contact with an article containing at least a metal, each element Shape change Liable to follow, as a result, it is possible to prevent problems such as peeling between the elements. Further, in the manufacture of the non-contact type data receiving / transmitting body 30, it is not necessary to form the conductive portion 16 on the coil portion 12a of the antenna 12 via the insulating film in order to connect the both end portions 12c, 12c of the antenna 12. Since the manufacturing process can be omitted, the manufacturing cost can be reduced.
