Patent application 2004-77647

  The conventional non-contact electronic tag according to the prior patent application configured as described above has a problem that some problems occur when the tag is attached to the ring.

  First, the communication antenna and the semiconductor components that make up the non-contact electronic tag are housed in the main body. However, when attaching to the ring, the main body must be bent extremely, and the non-contact electronic tag There is a disadvantage that the electronic component is damaged.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a procedure for attaching the conventional non-contact electronic tag 400 according to the prior patent application of FIG. FIG. 8A shows the first procedure, FIG. 8B shows the next procedure, and FIG. 8C shows the last procedure.

  In FIG. 8A, both ends of the T-shaped protrusion are bent and passed through the ring part of the ring 200, and in FIG. 8B, the main part of the non-contact electronic tag is bent and a part of the ring part of the ring 200 is bent. The ring 200 is temporarily lowered from the drooping portion of the top of the T-shaped protrusion, and in FIG. 8C, the ring 200 is pushed up in the direction of the T-shaped protrusion, and the ring 200 is drooped by the T-shaped protrusion. And the connection part.

  According to the procedure shown in FIG. 8, the main part of the non-contact electronic tag is a component of the non-contact electronic tag housed in the main part of the non-contact electronic tag because it is pushed into the ring part of the ring. Communication antennas and semiconductor components can be extremely bent and damaged.

  Secondly, the circumference of the hole provided in the top of the parietal part is narrower than the others, and when passing through the ring from the T-shaped projection side, the strength near the base of the parietal part, that is, the circumference of the hole is insufficient, It has the disadvantage of being bent.

  That is, in FIG. 8 (a), both ends of the T-shaped projection are extremely bent and pushed into the ring part of the ring 200. At this time, the periphery of the hole 427, XY, Alternatively, a large bending stress is applied between YZ.

  Moreover, it is made to attach also to a piercing by having a hole in two protrusions.

  The distance from the top end of the T-shaped protrusion to the vertical position with respect to the sides of the two inner ends of the protrusion is less than 1 mm, or is located outside the vertical position, and the T-shaped protrusion is the ring ring portion. It is configured to prevent it from exiting.

  The distance from the top of the two protrusions to the lower side of the T-shaped protrusion or the extension line of the lower side is 1.5 mm or less, and the ring is configured not to fall out from the gap between the top of the protrusion and the lower side of the T-shaped protrusion. ing.

  The diameter of the hole in the vicinity of the connection portion between the T-shaped projection and the main body portion is set to 3 mm or more, and is attached to a general article by a plastic cable having a special connection portion that is generally used.

  The diameter of the hole of the protrusion is configured to be 2 mm or more so that it can be attached to the thickest earrings in general jewelry.

  According to the present invention, first, it is possible to attach a non-contact electronic tag to a ring without bending a housing for a communication antenna, a semiconductor component or the like that is a main part of the non-contact electronic tag.

  Secondly, it has an advantage that it can provide a contactless electronic tag structure suitable for piercings that are generally distributed and sold together with jewelry such as a ring.

  Third, it is also suitable for general items such as necklaces that are generally distributed and sold together with jewelry such as rings, and is non-contact that does not impair the strength of non-contact electronic tags. It has the advantage that an electronic tag structure can be provided.

  The non-contact electronic tag according to the present invention has a T-shaped protrusion and two protrusions added to the main body of the non-contact electronic tag, and the non-contact electronic tag is attached to the ring by the top of the T-shaped protrusion and the remaining two protrusions. It has the structure to fix.

  In addition, it has a hole in the protrusion and can be attached to a pierced earring, and also has a hole in the T-shaped protrusion, the main body and the connection part. For necklaces and bracelets, etc., thread, string, plastic The cable can be attached to an article, and can be suspended from an exhibition hook when attached to a pierced earring.
