DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 comprises a button body 2 integrally formed with a U-shaped sewing leg 1 on the back surface using a hard plastic having electromagnetic permeability. A convex edge 3 is provided on the outer periphery of the top surface of the main body 2 to form a recess 4, and a reader / writer (not shown) is inserted into the recess 4.
A non-contact type IC chip 6 containing identification information of the electromagnetic induction type, which functions through the antenna coil 5 using a part of the energy emitted by the IC chip as a power source, is located at the center of the lower surface of the recess 4 and The antenna coil 5 is inserted into the outer periphery of the recess 4 in a ring-shaped state, and then the epoxy resin is poured into the recess 4 to be solidified and waterproofed with electromagnetic permeability. An IC chip 6 and its antenna coil 5 are irremovably embedded at the top of the button body 2 by forming a coating layer 7,
Washable.

The second embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 is obtained in the same manner as in the first embodiment. It is indicated by.

In the third embodiment shown in FIG. 5, an IC chip 6 is provided on one side of a seal 9 of a size which is convenient to be inserted into the recess 4.
After the antenna coil 5 is attached and fixed in advance to form an element (device), it is put into the recess 4 of the button body 2, and then the epoxy resin is poured into the recess 4 and solidified to form a waterproof coating layer 7. Is formed.

The present invention relates to an IC such as an EEPROM in which information can be rewritten by a user, a mask ROM in which information cannot be rewritten by a user, a PROM in which a user can program information such as information, or a non-volatile FROM using a ferroelectric material. A chip can be used, and an IC as shown in FIG.
When the chip 6 and the antenna coil 5 are fixed to the seal 9 in advance to form an element (device), an adhesive layer (not shown) may be provided on the back surface of the element in advance and temporarily fixed by the layer. It is possible, and when the resin is poured in this provisional state, it is possible to prevent a displacement or the like due to the pouring pressure.

[0009] Incidentally, the present invention cannot be applied to a button having a plurality of sewing holes at the center, such as a button of a shirt, having a plurality of sewing holes penetrating therethrough, since an IC chip exists at the center. .

[0010]

The button for a garment with stitched legs according to the present invention, when sewn to a garment using sewn legs, for example, uses an IC chip and a reader / writer (not shown) in the button for a garment with stitched legs. ) Is transmitted and received in a non-contact manner, and this is used for computer management by a personal computer or the like.

[0011]

According to the present invention, there is provided a button for clothes with a
Since the configuration as described above, this allows the above usage and the like, and distribution management such as product management and customer management in the clothes cleaning industry and the apparel industry,
3. A button for a garment with stitched legs according to claim 2, wherein prevention of loss of the clothes, prevention of theft, prevention of counterfeiting, and other entry / exit management (restriction) can be easily and reliably performed without identification errors. Since the IC chip containing the identification information is located at the center of the top of the button body and the antenna is located in a ring shape around the outside of the top (see the second embodiment), It is convenient to obtain a long antenna (see FIG. 5) by increasing the number of turns of the antenna 5 disposed around the IC chip 6 in the present invention.
The clothing button with sewing legs according to (1) is provided with decorations such as pictures, characters, and colors on the outer surface of the embedded portion of the IC chip and antenna at the top of the button body (see the third embodiment). It has excellent effects such as providing a product with high aesthetics that cannot be realized with a button having a plurality of sewing holes penetrating on the front and back like a button of a shirt.
