Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a radio tag attached to a corrugated box from breaking in the course of circulation. <P>SOLUTION: The corrugated box has a peripheral wall which is formed by connecting side boards 1 and 2 at respective outer peripheral side faces, and pasting a joint margin piece 3 at one end of a side board 1 on the other end of a side board 2. An IC tag 6 is attached to the side board 2 on which the joint margin piece 3 is pasted in such a way that the IC tag 6 is located within a range equivalent to seven times or less the thickness of the corrugated board from the front end of the joint margin piece 3. The IC tag 6 is, therefore, attached to be close to a level difference formed by the joint margin piece 3 and the side board 2 overlapping with each other, which protects the IC tag 6 from contact with a content, thus suppresses the occurrence of an obstacle to the IC tag 6 in data reading or writing. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI

Description

  The present invention relates to a cardboard box attached with a wireless tag such as an IC tag capable of transmitting and receiving data without contact.

  In recent years, as a means of physical distribution management, it has been considered to attach an IC tag capable of transmitting and receiving data in a contactless manner to a cardboard box that stores products. This IC tag is composed of an IC chip for storing data and a communication antenna, and the data recorded on the IC chip can be rewritten as well as read at each stage of distribution.
