Description

本発明は、内容物が充填・密封される所謂パウチと言われる袋状容器で、スパウトと言われる注出口を備えた注出口付き袋状容器について、重ね合わせたシート同士の間に注出口を挟み込んでそれらを接着することにより容器周縁部に形成されたシール部でのシール不良を検査するための方法に関し、特に、連続的に搬送される多数の容器に対して非接触で全数検査できるような注出口付き袋状容器のシール不良検査方法に関する。   The present invention is a so-called pouch that is filled and sealed with the contents, and is a pouch with a spout called a spout. The present invention relates to a method for inspecting a sealing failure at a seal portion formed on a peripheral edge of a container by sandwiching and adhering them, and in particular, it can be inspected in a non-contact manner for a large number of continuously conveyed containers. The present invention relates to a seal inspection method for a bag-like container with a spout.

パウチと言われる袋状容器のうちの一つのタイプとして、スパウトと言われる筒状の注出口を備えた注出口付きの袋状容器が、輸血用の血液や、生理食塩水やブドウ糖液などの点滴薬や、ゼリーなどの液状食品や、飲料等を充填・密封するための容器として従来から広く使用されている。そのような注出口付きの袋状容器では、ヒートシール等による接着が可能な内面を有するシートを使用して、重ね合わせたシート同士の間に樹脂製の注出口を挟み込んだ状態で、それらをヒートシール等により容器周縁部で接着して袋状に成形してから、注出口から容器内に内容物を充填した後で注出口を密閉することにより、袋状容器の内部に内容物を充填・密封するということが従来から行なわれている。   As one type of bag-like container called pouch, a bag-like container with a spout that has a cylindrical spout called spout is used for blood for transfusion, physiological saline, glucose solution, etc. It has been widely used as a container for filling and sealing liquid foods such as drops, jelly, and beverages. In such a bag-like container with a spout, using a sheet having an inner surface that can be bonded by heat sealing or the like, with a resin spout sandwiched between the stacked sheets, Fill the contents inside the bag-like container by sealing at the periphery of the container by heat sealing etc. -Sealing has been conventionally performed.

そのような注出口付きの袋状容器において、両側でシートと接着される注出口の側面部分は、ヒートシール等によるシートとの接着がやり易いように、一般的には横断面形状で舟形となるように偏平に形成されているが、それでも、注出口とシートが接着される部分では、シート同士を接着する部分と比べてヒートシール等による接着がやり難いために、当該部分でシール不良が発生する頻度が高くなるような虞がある。そのため、充填・密封後の袋状容器の全製品についてシール部でのシール性(漏れの有無)を検査することが必要となる。   In such a bag-like container with a spout, the side portion of the spout that is bonded to the sheet on both sides is generally shaped like a boat with a cross-sectional shape so that it can be easily adhered to the sheet by heat sealing or the like. However, in the portion where the spout and the sheet are bonded, it is difficult to bond by heat sealing or the like compared to the portion where the sheets are bonded to each other. There is a risk that the frequency of occurrence will increase. Therefore, it is necessary to inspect the sealability (presence or absence of leakage) at the seal portion for all products in the bag-like container after filling and sealing.

なお、注出口付きの袋状容器ではないが、袋状容器の検査について、下記の特許文献1には、高周波高電圧印加法によるフレキシブルパウチの漏れ検査機について開示されており、また、そのような検査機を使用した検査方法として、「導電性の内容物を充填密封してなる絶縁性のフレキシブルパウチを、電極間に介在させ、電極間の印加電圧は、絶縁性のフレキシブルパウチが破壊されない値にあらかじめ定めておいて前記パウチにピンホールがあれば、閃絡を生じ回路に流れる放電電流により前記ピンホールを検知する高周波高電圧印加法による検査方法において、前記、ピンホール検査する前に、前記パウチに所定の時間加圧することを特徴とするフレキシブルパウチの検査方法」というものが開示されている。

In addition, although it is not a bag-like container with a spout, regarding inspection of a bag-like container, the following Patent Document 1 discloses a leak inspection machine for a flexible pouch by a high-frequency high-voltage application method. As an inspection method using a simple inspection machine, an insulating flexible pouch filled with conductive contents and sealed is interposed between electrodes, and the applied voltage between the electrodes does not break the insulating flexible pouch. If there is a pinhole in the pouch with a predetermined value, in the inspection method by the high-frequency high-voltage application method for detecting the pinhole by a discharge current that flows through the circuit due to a flash, before the pinhole inspection, , A flexible pouch inspection method characterized by pressurizing the pouch for a predetermined time is disclosed.

ところで、上記のような従来公知の検査方法によれば、重ね合わせたシート同士の間に注出口を挟み込んでそれらを接着することにより容器周縁部にシール部が形成された注出口付きの袋状容器についても、充填・密封された容器のシール部でのシール不良を検査することができるものの、上記のような従来公知の検査方法では、一つ一つの容器について、それぞれ加圧装置によって予め押圧する必要があり、且つ、それぞれ両電極間に設置する必要があることから、コンベア等で連続的に搬送される多数の容器を全て検査する場合には多大の時間が掛かるという問題がある。   By the way, according to the conventionally known inspection method as described above, a bag shape with a spout in which a sealing portion is formed on the peripheral edge of the container by sandwiching the spout between the stacked sheets and bonding them together. Although the container can be inspected for a sealing failure at the sealed portion of the filled and sealed container, in the conventional inspection method as described above, each container is pressed in advance by a pressure device. In addition, since it is necessary to install them between both electrodes, there is a problem that it takes a lot of time to inspect all of a large number of containers continuously conveyed by a conveyor or the like.

さらに、充填・密封済みの製品を加熱殺菌してから冷却水により冷却するような場合には、冷却後に容器の表面を完全に乾燥させておかないと、容器の表面に付着した水分により閃絡が発生して、問題のない製品でも不良品として処理されるような虞もある。   In addition, when the filled and sealed product is sterilized by heating and then cooled with cooling water, it is necessary to dry the surface of the container completely after cooling. May occur, and even a product having no problem may be treated as a defective product.

本発明は、上記のような問題の解消を課題とするものであり、具体的には、重ね合わせたシート同士の間に注出口を挟み込んでそれらを接着することにより容器周縁部にシール部が形成された注出口付きの袋状容器について、多数の容器をコンベア等で搬送している間に、それぞれの容器でのシール部の不良を、非接触で間違いなく全数検査できるようにすることを課題とするものである。   An object of the present invention is to eliminate the above-described problems. Specifically, a sealing portion is provided at the peripheral edge of the container by sandwiching a spout between the stacked sheets and bonding them together. Regarding the formed bag-like containers with spouts, while transporting a large number of containers on a conveyor, etc., it is possible to inspect 100% of the defective seals in each container without contact. It is to be an issue.

本発明は、上記のような課題を解決するために、重ね合わせたシート同士の間に注出口を挟み込んでそれらを接着することにより容器周縁部にシール部が形成された注出口付き袋状容器のシール部での不良を検査するための方法において、重ね合わせる一方のシートの内面側に、所定の電気回路定数を持ったアンテナコイルとコンデンサとからなり所定の共振周波数が得られる共振回路が形成された第1無線タグを設け、また、重ね合わせる他方のシートの内面側に、所定の電気回路定数を持ったアンテナコイルとコンデンサとからなり所定の共振周波数が得られる共振回路が形成された第2無線タグを設けて、容器周縁部に形成されるシール部に第1無線タグと第2無線タグとを重ならないように配置すると共に、各無線タグに対して時間差を置いて、所定の共振周波数の電磁波をそれぞれ送信し、該送信電磁波に応じて各無線タグから返信される所定の共振周波数の返信電磁波をそれぞれ検出することで、該返信電磁波を検出できない場合にはシール部が不良であると判定するようにしたことを特徴とするものである。   In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention provides a spout-equipped bag-like container in which a spout is sandwiched between stacked sheets and a seal portion is formed at the peripheral edge of the container by adhering them. In a method for inspecting a defect in a seal portion of a sheet, a resonance circuit is formed on an inner surface side of one of the sheets to be overlapped, which includes an antenna coil having a predetermined electric circuit constant and a capacitor, and can obtain a predetermined resonance frequency. The first wireless tag is provided, and the inner surface of the other sheet to be overlapped is formed with a resonance circuit that includes an antenna coil and a capacitor having a predetermined electric circuit constant and obtains a predetermined resonance frequency. Two wireless tags are provided, and the first wireless tag and the second wireless tag are arranged so as not to overlap the seal portion formed on the peripheral edge of the container. When the electromagnetic wave having a predetermined resonance frequency is transmitted, and the return electromagnetic wave having a predetermined resonance frequency returned from each wireless tag in response to the transmitted electromagnetic wave is detected. Is characterized in that it is determined that the seal portion is defective.

上記のような本発明の注出口付き袋状容器のシール不良検査方法によれば、シート同士や注出口とシートを接着させたシール部に何の問題もない場合には、各無線タグに対して時間差を置いて、所定の共振周波数の電磁波をそれぞれ送信すると、第1無線タグと第2無線タグとを重ならないように配置していることで、各無線タグのそれぞれにおいて、アンテナコイルが共振周波数に見合う量の電荷を発生させ、コンデンサがその電荷を貯めて、そのエネルギーでアンテナコイルが受信した所定の共振周波数の電磁波を返信することとなる。   According to the sealing failure inspection method for a bag-like container with a spout according to the present invention as described above, if there is no problem with the seal part where the sheets or the spout and the sheet are bonded, When an electromagnetic wave having a predetermined resonance frequency is transmitted with a time difference, the antenna coil resonates in each wireless tag by arranging the first wireless tag and the second wireless tag so as not to overlap each other. An amount of electric charge corresponding to the frequency is generated, the capacitor stores the electric charge, and an electromagnetic wave having a predetermined resonance frequency received by the antenna coil is returned by the energy.

一方、シート同士や注出口とシートを接着させたシール部に問題がある場合には、内容物等の異物が少なくとも何れかの無線タグのアンテナコイルに接触することで、その無線タグでは、アンテナコイルのインダクタンスが変化し、所定の電気回路定数であるインピーダンスが変わり、これに伴って無線タグが所定の共振周波数の電磁波に共振できなくなり、そのため、所定の共振周波数の返信電磁波を発信しないこととなる。   On the other hand, when there is a problem with the seal part where the sheets or the spout and the sheet are bonded, foreign matter such as contents comes into contact with the antenna coil of at least one of the wireless tags. The inductance of the coil changes, the impedance which is a predetermined electric circuit constant changes, and accordingly, the wireless tag can no longer resonate with an electromagnetic wave with a predetermined resonance frequency, and therefore does not transmit a return electromagnetic wave with a predetermined resonance frequency. Become.

したがって、コンベア等で搬送している多数の袋状容器のそれぞれで、各無線タグに対して時間差を置いて、所定の共振周波数の電磁波をそれぞれ送信し、該送信電磁波に応じて各無線タグから返信される所定の共振周波数の返信電磁波をそれぞれ検出することで、該返信磁電波を検出できない場合には、シート同士や注出口とシートを接着させたシール部が不良であると判断することができる。これによって、多数の袋状容器をコンベア等で搬送している間に、それぞれの容器でのシール部の不良を、非接触で容易に全数検査することができる。   Therefore, in each of a large number of bag-like containers transported by a conveyor or the like, an electromagnetic wave having a predetermined resonance frequency is transmitted with a time difference with respect to each wireless tag, and from each wireless tag according to the transmitted electromagnetic wave. When the return electromagnetic wave cannot be detected by detecting each return electromagnetic wave having a predetermined resonance frequency, it may be determined that the sheets or the seal portion where the spout and the sheet are bonded is defective. it can. As a result, while a large number of bag-like containers are being conveyed by a conveyor or the like, it is possible to easily inspect all of the defective seals in each container without contact.

なお、袋状容器のシール部のうちで注出口が挟み込まれる部分については、ヒートシール等による接着がやり難くて最もシール不良が発生し易い部分であるが、この部分に各無線タグのアンテナコイルの部分を形成することによって、当該部分でのシール部の不良を確実に検出することができる。また、各無線タグを構成するアンテナコイルやコンデンサについては、印刷により薄く形成することで、シール部でのシール性に影響を与えることが無く、良好なシール部を維持することができる。   The portion of the sealing portion of the bag-like container where the spout is sandwiched is the portion where adhesion by heat sealing or the like is difficult to perform and the seal failure is most likely to occur. By forming this portion, it is possible to reliably detect a defect in the seal portion at that portion. In addition, the antenna coil and the capacitor constituting each wireless tag are formed thin by printing, so that the sealing performance at the sealing portion is not affected and a good sealing portion can be maintained.

さらに、シール部に問題があって所定の共振周波数の返信電磁波を検出できない場合には、内容液等の異物が接触してインピーダンスが変化してしまった無線タグの共振回路に対して、種々の周波数の電磁波を発信して無線タグに共振を起こさせることで、共振が得られた送信電磁波の周波数の大きさによって、シール部での不良の程度を判定することができる。   Furthermore, when there is a problem with the seal part and a return electromagnetic wave with a predetermined resonance frequency cannot be detected, there are various types of resonance circuits for wireless tags whose impedance has changed due to contact with foreign matter such as liquid contents. By transmitting an electromagnetic wave having a frequency to cause the wireless tag to resonate, the degree of failure at the seal portion can be determined by the magnitude of the frequency of the transmitted electromagnetic wave from which the resonance is obtained.

重ね合わせたシート同士の間に注出口を挟み込んでそれらを接着することにより容器周縁部にシール部が形成された注出口付きの袋状容器について、多数の容器をコンベア等で搬送している間に、それぞれの容器でのシール部の不良を、非接触で間違いなく全数検査できるようにするという目的を、最良の形態として以下の実施例に具体的に示すように、重ね合わせる一方のシートの内面側に、所定の電気回路定数を持ったアンテナコイルとコンデンサとからなり所定の共振周波数が得られる共振回路が形成された第1無線タグを設け、また、重ね合わせる他方のシートの内面側に、所定の電気回路定数を持ったアンテナコイルとコンデンサとからなり所定の共振周波数が得られる共振回路が形成された第2無線タグを設けて、容器周縁部に形成されるシール部に第1無線タグと第2無線タグとを重ならないように配置すると共に、各無線タグに対して時間差を置いて、所定の共振周波数の電磁波をそれぞれ送信し、該送信電磁波に応じて各無線タグから返信される所定の共振周波数の返信電磁波をそれぞれ検出することで、該返信電磁波を検出できない場合にはシール部が不良であると判定するという方法によって実現した。   While carrying a large number of containers on a conveyor, etc., with respect to a bag-like container with a spout formed by sealing the spout between the stacked sheets and bonding them together In addition, the purpose of making it possible to inspect 100% of defective seals in each container without contact is definitely the best mode, as specifically shown in the following embodiment, Provided on the inner surface side is a first wireless tag in which a resonance circuit that includes an antenna coil and a capacitor having a predetermined electric circuit constant and obtains a predetermined resonance frequency is formed, and on the inner surface side of the other sheet to be superimposed Providing a second wireless tag having a resonance circuit comprising an antenna coil having a predetermined electric circuit constant and a capacitor and capable of obtaining a predetermined resonance frequency; The first wireless tag and the second wireless tag are arranged so as not to overlap each other on the formed seal portion, and an electromagnetic wave having a predetermined resonance frequency is transmitted to each wireless tag with a time difference, and the transmitted electromagnetic wave This is realized by a method in which a return electromagnetic wave having a predetermined resonance frequency returned from each wireless tag is detected, and if the return electromagnetic wave cannot be detected, the seal portion is determined to be defective.

本発明のシール不良検査方法が適用される注出口付き袋状容器は、内容物が充填・密封される所謂パウチと言われるもので、スパウトと言われる注出口を備えたものあって、そのような袋状容器を構成するためのシートについては、電磁波を遮蔽するアルミ箔等のような金属箔を使用せず、且つ、容器の内面側となる面がヒートシール等により接着可能なものであれば、特に限定されるものではなく、その層構造については、単層構造であっても良いし、ガスバリア性に優れたEVOH樹脂やポリアミド樹脂をサンドイッチした多層構成であっても良いものである。なお、シートの厚さについては、総厚で100〜120μm程度が好適である。また、スパウトと言われる注出口については、金型内に樹脂を射出して成形する射出成形法により別部品として製造されるもので、使用される素材としては、ヒートシール性に優れたオレフィン樹脂が好適であるが、特に限定されるものではない。

The coil full width (including the inner conductive part 12a that is the line end part on the inner edge side) of the antenna coil 12 excluding the coil wire end part and the conductive plate part 10 are opposed to each other in a state of being blocked by the insulating chip 11. Thus, this portion is formed in the capacitor 13 and plays the role of a storage battery which is an energy source for a wireless tag that resonates with the electromagnetic wave received by the resonance circuit composed of the antenna coil 12 and returns the electromagnetic wave of the resonance frequency. I am letting.

具体的に、本実施例では、シート2の内面に対して、先ず、導電性インキにより導電板部10を印刷し、その上から、導電板部10の一部を残して導電板部10を覆うように、樹脂製インキにより絶縁性チップ11を印刷し、更にそれらの上から、シート2の周縁部の全周に沿って、導電インキにより3重のコイル線によるアンテナコイル12を印刷し、コイル線の内縁側の線端部分を板状の内側導電部12aに形成して、線端部分で4重になったコイル線の外縁側の1本を残した3本を絶縁性チップ11の上に通し、コイル線の内縁側に形成した内側導電部12aを絶縁性チップ11の上に載せ、コイル線の外縁側の線端部分の1本を導電板部10の露出した部分(絶縁性チップ11と重なっていない部分)の上を通すことで、アンテナコイル12の外縁側の1本のコイル線端部分だけを導電板部10に接続させている。そのような第2無線タグでは、アンテナコイル12の内縁側の線端部分を板状の内側導電部12aに形成していることで、コンデンサ13の静電容量は、69.0pfの値を呈しており、共振周波数は11.2MHzとなっている。   Specifically, in this embodiment, first, the conductive plate portion 10 is printed on the inner surface of the sheet 2 with conductive ink, and the conductive plate portion 10 is left on the conductive plate portion 10 by leaving a part of the conductive plate portion 10 thereon.

The resonance frequency is 11.2 MHz.

上記のように第1無線タグと第2無線タグとをシート2,3にそれぞれ形成しておくことで、シート2,3の間に注出口4を挟み込んでシート2,3の周縁部をヒートシールした場合に、注出口付き袋状容器の周縁部のシール部(各シート2,3の間、及び、各シート2,3と注出口4の間)には、アンテナコイルとコンデンサ(導電板部、絶縁性チップ、アンテナコイル)とからなる共振回路を備えた第1無線タグと第2無線タグとが設けられることとなる。なお、袋状容器1の注出口4の部分(各シート2,3と注出口4の間)には、それぞれの無線タグのコンデンサ9,13は形成されることなく、コイル線によるアンテナコイル8,11だけが形成されている。   By forming the first wireless tag and the second wireless tag on the sheets 2 and 3 as described above, the spout 4 is sandwiched between the sheets 2 and 3, and the peripheral portions of the sheets 2 and 3 are heated. When sealed, there are an antenna coil and a capacitor (conductive plate) in the seal part (between each sheet 2 and 3 and between each sheet 2 and 3 and the spout 4) of the peripheral part of the bag-like container with spout. The first wireless tag and the second wireless tag that are provided with a resonance circuit composed of a first portion, an insulating chip, and an antenna coil are provided. In addition, in the portion of the spout 4 of the bag-like container 1 (between the sheets 2 and 3 and the spout 4), the capacitors 9 and 13 of the respective wireless tags are not formed, and the antenna coil 8 by the coil wire is formed. , 11 are formed.

上記のように第1無線タグと第2無線タグとが設けられた注出口付き袋状容器による本実施例のシール不良検査方法では、内容物が充填・密封された状態で連続的に搬送されている容器に対して、所定の共振周波数の電磁波をそれぞれ時間差を置いて送信し、この送信電磁波に応じて各無線タグから返信される所定の共振周波数の返信電磁波をそれぞれ検出して、該返信磁電波が検出された場合には、シール部に何の問題もないものと判断している。   In the sealing failure inspection method of the present embodiment using the bag-like container with the spout provided with the first wireless tag and the second wireless tag as described above, the contents are continuously conveyed while being filled and sealed. The electromagnetic waves having a predetermined resonance frequency are transmitted to each container with a time difference, and the response electromagnetic waves having a predetermined resonance frequency returned from each wireless tag according to the transmitted electromagnetic waves are respectively detected and returned. If a magnetic wave is detected, it is determined that there is no problem in the seal portion.

具体的に、本実施例では、約13.56MHzの共振周波数の電磁波を第1無線タグにディップメーターで送信して、アンテナコイル8に共振周波数に見合う量の電荷を発生させ、コンデンサ9がその電荷を貯めて、そのエネルギーでアンテナコイル8が受信した約13.56MHzの共振周波数の電磁波を返信させて、この返信電磁波をディップメーターで受信すると共に、時間差を置いて、約11.2MHzの共振周波数の電磁波を第2無線タグにディップメーターで送信して、アンテナコイル12に共振周波数に見合う量の電荷を発生させ、コンデンサ13がその電荷を貯めて、そのエネルギーでアンテナコイル12が受信した約11.2MHzの共振周波数の電磁波を返信させて、この返信電磁波をディップメーターで受信しており、両方の返信電磁波をディップメーターで受信した場合には、シール部に何の問題もないものと判断している。   Specifically, in this embodiment, an electromagnetic wave having a resonance frequency of about 13.56 MHz is transmitted to the first wireless tag by a dip meter, and an amount of electric charge corresponding to the resonance frequency is generated in the antenna coil 8. The electric charge is stored, and the electromagnetic wave having a resonance frequency of about 13.56 MHz received by the antenna coil 8 is returned by the energy. The returned electromagnetic wave is received by the dip meter, and the resonance is about 11.2 MHz with a time difference. An electromagnetic wave having a frequency is transmitted to the second wireless tag by a dip meter to generate an amount of electric charge corresponding to the resonance frequency in the antenna coil 12, the capacitor 13 stores the electric charge, and the energy received by the antenna coil 12 by the energy. An electromagnetic wave with a resonance frequency of 11.2 MHz is returned, and the returned electromagnetic wave is received by the dip meter. Both reply electromagnetic wave when receiving the DIP meter is determines that there is no problem with the sealing portion.

これに対して、シール部に問題があって、内容物等の異物がアンテナコイル8,12の少なくとも何れか一方に接触していると、そのアンテナコイルの無線タグでは、アンテナコイルのインダクタンスが変化してインピーダンスが変わり、これに伴って無線タグの共振回路が共振周波数の電磁波に反応しなくなり、その所定の共振周波数の電磁波を送信しても、所定の共振周波数の返信磁電波を検出できないことから、その場合には、シール部が不良であると判断している。   On the other hand, when there is a problem in the seal portion and foreign matter such as contents are in contact with at least one of the antenna coils 8 and 12, the antenna coil inductance changes in the antenna coil wireless tag. As a result, the impedance changes, and the resonance circuit of the wireless tag does not respond to the electromagnetic wave of the resonance frequency. Even if the electromagnetic wave of the predetermined resonance frequency is transmitted, the return magnetic wave of the predetermined resonance frequency cannot be detected. Therefore, in that case, it is determined that the seal portion is defective.

上記のような本実施例の注出口付き袋状容器のシール不良検査方法によれば、先ず、袋状容器に設けられる第1無線タグと第2無線タグとを構成するそれぞれのアンテナコイル8,12やコンデンサ9,13(導電板部6,10、絶縁性チップ7,11)を、何れも印刷により薄く形成していることから、重ね合わせたシート同士(及び、各シートと注出口)の間のシール部にそれらを設けても、シール部でのシール性に殆ど影響を与えることなく、シール部でのシール性を良好に維持することができる。   According to the sealing failure inspection method for the bag-like container with the spout of the present embodiment as described above, first, each antenna coil 8 constituting the first wireless tag and the second wireless tag provided in the bag-like container, 12 and capacitors 9 and 13 (conductive plate portions 6 and 10 and insulating chips 7 and 11) are all thinly formed by printing, so that the overlapped sheets (and each sheet and spout) Even if they are provided in the intermediate seal portion, the seal performance at the seal portion can be maintained well without substantially affecting the seal performance at the seal portion.

そして、コンベア等で搬送している多数の袋状容器のそれぞれに対して、各容器の第1無線タグと第2無線タグとに、時間差を置いて所定の共振周波数の電磁波を送信し、その返信電磁波をそれぞれ検出することで、各容器のシール部での不良を検査していることから、多数の袋状容器をコンベア等で連続的に搬送している間に、各容器のシール部でのシール不良を、非接触で容易に全数検査することができる。   Then, for each of a large number of bag-like containers conveyed by a conveyor or the like, an electromagnetic wave having a predetermined resonance frequency is transmitted with a time difference between the first wireless tag and the second wireless tag of each container, By detecting each return electromagnetic wave, we check for defects at the seal part of each container, so during the continuous transportation of a large number of bag-like containers on a conveyor etc., at the seal part of each container 100% can be easily inspected for non-contact seals.

なお、シール部に問題があって所定の共振周波数の返信電磁波を検出できない場合で、シール部での不良(欠陥)のレベルを分別したい場合には、検査によりシール不良としてリジェクトされた袋状容器について、内容物等の異物が接触してインピーダンスが変化してしまった無線タグの共振回路に対して、種々の周波数の電磁波を発信して無線タグに共振を起こさせることで、共振が得られた送信電磁波の周波数の大きさによって、シール部での不良の程度を容易に判定することができる。   If there is a problem with the seal part and a return electromagnetic wave with a predetermined resonance frequency cannot be detected, and you want to separate the level of defects (defects) at the seal part, a bag-like container rejected as a seal defect by inspection Resonance is obtained by transmitting electromagnetic waves of various frequencies to cause resonance in the wireless tag to the resonance circuit of the wireless tag whose impedance has changed due to contact with foreign matter such as contents. The degree of failure at the seal portion can be easily determined according to the frequency of the transmitted electromagnetic wave.

すなわち、各無線タグのアンテナコイル8,12の少なくとも何れかで、アンテナコイルの幅方向の複数本のコイル線のうちで内容物等の異物の接触によりショートした本数が増加すると、共振して返信する電磁波の周波数が高くなる性質があることから、共振して返信される電磁波の周波数が高くなる程、内容物等の異物との接触によるシール部での欠陥(シール不良)の程度が大きいと判定することができる。具体的には、所定の共振周波数よりも僅かに高い共振周波数の場合は、シール部での不良の程度は軽いと判定することができ、一方、所定の共振周波数よりもかなり高い共振周波数の場合は、アンテナコイルの幅方向の複数本のうちの大部分がショートしていることから、シール部から内容物が漏れそうな重大な不良があると判定することができる。   That is, when at least one of the antenna coils 8 and 12 of each wireless tag increases the number of shorts due to the contact of foreign matter such as contents among a plurality of coil wires in the width direction of the antenna coil, it resonates and returns. Since the frequency of the electromagnetic wave to be transmitted is high, the higher the frequency of the electromagnetic wave that is resonated and returned, the greater the degree of defects (seal failure) at the seal part due to contact with foreign matter such as contents Can be determined. Specifically, if the resonance frequency is slightly higher than the predetermined resonance frequency, it can be determined that the degree of failure at the seal portion is light, while the resonance frequency is considerably higher than the predetermined resonance frequency. Since most of the plurality of antenna coils in the width direction are short-circuited, it can be determined that there is a serious defect that the contents are likely to leak from the seal portion.

以上、本発明の注出口付き袋状容器のシール不良検査方法の一実施例について説明したが、本発明は、上記のような実施例にのみ限定されるものではなく、例えば、袋状容器については、実施例に示したような2枚のシートを重ね合わせるものに限らず、長い1枚のシートを二つ折りに重ねたものや、所謂ピロータイプと言われるものに限らず、複数の側壁部と一つの底壁部とからなるような適宜の構造の袋状容器であっても良く、また、アンテナコイルとコンデンサからなる共振回路を備えた各無線タグについては、実施例に示したようなコイル線の本数の各アンテナコイルによるものに限らず、各アンテナコイルの幅方向でのコイル線の本数(何重のコイルにするか)については適宜の選択可能である等、適宜に変更可能なものであることはいうまでもない。   As mentioned above, although one Example of the sealing defect inspection method of the bag-shaped container with a spout of the present invention was described, the present invention is not limited only to the above examples, for example, about a bag-shaped container. Is not limited to a stack of two sheets as shown in the embodiment, but is not limited to a stack of two long sheets or a so-called pillow type, and includes a plurality of side wall portions.

The number of coil wires is not limited to that of each antenna coil, and the number of coil wires in the width direction of each antenna coil (how many coils are used) can be appropriately selected, and can be appropriately changed. This thing It is needless to say.
