Description

[0001]
[Technical field to which the invention belongs]
The present invention relates to an ID-recognizing wireless communication chip structure for specifying an article, for example, an article requiring identification, such as a foot mat member that is used cyclically after being collected for cleaning as a rental product. The present invention relates to an ID-recognizing wireless communication chip structure that is attached to a device.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in the mat member as described above, by providing unique identification data to the mat member, the mat member can be easily specified when the mat member used for rental is used by a specific user. It has been done.
In Patent Document 1, a small, coin-shaped radio frequency signal generator (RF chip, so-called data carrier) is disposed in the rubber of a mat, and identification data (ID) unique to the mat is stored in the RF chip. In addition, the RF chip is activated by radio waves transmitted from the reader, and the identification data is transmitted to the ID reader side by radio waves.
[0003]
[Patent Document 1]
Japanese Patent No. 2631188 [0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, the RF chip (small radio frequency transmitter) of Patent Document 1 is a button-like one with a clothes coat (for example, a diameter of about 22 mm and a thickness of about 4 mm), which is hard and thick, and this is used as a mat. When it is embedded, there is a problem that the portion is raised and looks bad, the lower edge of the door is caught on the raised portion, and the tip is damaged when it is stepped on the high heel of the shoe. In addition, after the mat for rental is collected and washed, the chip may be ejected from the mat in the washing or drying process of the mat member, for example, when the mat in a disordered form is dehydrated.
[0005]
[Means for solving the problems and effects of the invention]
The present invention is an ID recognition wireless communication chip structure that is attached to an article to which an ID that is specific identification information is assigned,
A wireless communication thin section that is flexible and has a flake shape and stores ID that is identification information of the mat, and an outer sheet that is flexible and encloses and covers the wireless communication thin section. A wireless communication chip structure for ID recognition, wherein the wireless communication chip structure is attached to the article in a state where the thin piece for wireless communication is held in the sheet.
[0006]
Thus, by adopting a wireless communication chip structure for ID recognition, that is, a thin piece for wireless communication (flaky wireless recognition chip) covered with a sheet, the thickness thereof is extremely small, so that the mounting portion is not substantially raised. The attachment is not known, and it is preferable in terms of design and is easy to use. Furthermore, since the wireless communication flakes are flexible, they can follow the deformation of a target article such as a mat member in washing, dehydration and drying processes, and the flakes protrude from the mat member and other articles. There is no end to it. And the said sheet | seat has at least 1 effect of the effect of absorbing the thermal expansion of the thin piece for radio | wireless communication as mentioned later, improving water resistance, or improving insulation.
[0007]
For example, the ID recognition wireless communication chip structure is
A wireless communication thin section that is flexible and has a flake shape and stores ID that is identification information of the mat, and an outer sheet that is flexible and encloses and covers the wireless communication thin section. And the thin piece for wireless communication is held on the article in a displaceable manner with respect to the sheet.
[0008]
Here, for example, when a mat member used for rental or the like is to be mounted, the mat member is usually used as a functional part of a foot wipe by, for example, a pile being implanted on the main body mat portion. In addition, the outer edge side mat portion for improving the mountability and stability is arranged so as to partially overlap, and is thermocompression bonded at the overlapping portion to form an integral mat member. In the step of mounting the ID recognition wireless communication chip structure on the mat member, when the wireless communication thin piece is sandwiched there by thermocompression of the overlapping portion, thermal expansion of the overlapping portion (generally rubber) If there is a considerable difference in the thermal expansion of a thin piece for wireless communication (for example, an ultra-thin chip and an antenna laminated with a resin film), the sandwiched thin piece (for example, an antenna printing part) is destroyed due to disconnection or the like. There is also a possibility. However, since the communication flakes are covered with a sheet and covered, and the flakes are displaceable within the sheet, even if there is a difference in the thermal expansion, it is absorbed, and wireless communication during the nipping process Communication flakes are less likely to break.
[0009]
The sheet covering the wireless communication thin piece may be configured such that at least an inner surface that contacts the wireless communication thin piece is a non-adhesive surface that is not bonded and integrated with the wireless communication thin piece. This makes it easier for the wireless communication flakes to expand and contract.
[0010]
The sheet covering the wireless communication flake can be provided with a coating layer that reduces friction with the wireless communication flake on at least the inner surface that contacts the wireless communication flake, The sliding of the wireless communication flakes can be improved.
[0011]
The outer sheet covering the wireless communication flakes is a water-resistant sheet having flexibility, and the water-resistant sheet is covered and covered with the wireless communication flakes. In this state, for example, a mat With the member as a mounting target, it can be held between overlapping portions of the main body mat portion and the outer edge side mat portion to be joined to each other. For example, when a mat member is a mounting target, water may enter the overlapping portion when the mat member is washed (the overlapping portion is generally made of rubber so that water can be easily drawn after washing). In that case, the water-resistant sheet protects the wireless communication flakes from the intrusion of water, and it is easy to avoid a failure due to water immersion.
[0012]
The thin piece for wireless communication is covered with a sheet having flexibility and electrical insulation, and can be sandwiched between the overlapping portions of the mat member in that state, for example. For example, when a mat member is a mounting target, the overlapped portion becomes conductive by thermocompression of the overlapped portion of the main body mat portion and the outer edge side mat portion or subsequent finish coating on the back surface of the mat. In some cases, if the thin piece for wireless communication is bare and is held between the overlapping portions, the circuit portion of the thin piece may be grounded (grounded) via the mat member. Then, there may be a situation in which the function of automatically recognizing the ID by the wireless communication flakes is not sufficiently exhibited. However, if the wireless communication flakes are wrapped (covered) with an insulating sheet, such grounding hardly occurs. Become.
[0013]
The wireless communication flake is covered and covered by a sheet having flexibility, water resistance and electrical insulation, and the above-described overlapping portion is covered with, for example, a mat member. In this case, both the function of protecting the wireless communication flakes from the above-described water and the function of preventing the occurrence of grounding can be obtained.
[0014]
The wireless communication thin piece is sandwiched between the overlapping portions with a mat member as an attachment target, for example, in a state of being covered with a sheet having flexibility, water resistance, and electrical insulation. Can be. In the sandwiched state, the wireless communication thin piece can be held displaceably with respect to the sheet inside the sheet. Thereby, the absorption of the thermal expansion difference between the overlapping portion and the wireless communication thin piece, the function of protecting the wireless communication thin piece from water, and the function of making it difficult to cause grounding can be obtained at the same time.
[0015]
The sheet may be provided with a water-resistant resin coating on one side or both sides of a sheet base material. For example, if one side or both sides of the sheet base material is coated with silicon resin, and the sheet base material is based on, for example, paper, the silicon resin coating protects the thin piece for wireless communication in the mat member from water, Further, it is possible to secure a certain degree of insulation with a predetermined mounting target such as a mat member, and to provide effects such as friction reduction (allowing expansion and contraction due to thermal expansion) with the wireless communication thin piece.
[0016]
The wireless communication chip structure for ID recognition which consists of the thin sheet for wireless communication covered with the sheet can be sandwiched between overlapping portions where two members of rubber or elastic synthetic resin are bonded by thermocompression bonding. The mat member described above can be cited as an example of a mounting target.
[0017]
The wireless communication chip for ID recognition which consists of the thin piece for wireless communication covered with the sheet has a functional part such as a mat member as described above, that is, a foot wipe part on the surface, and a main body formed of rubber or elastic synthetic resin. Rubber or elastic jointed around the mat part and the outer edge part of the main body mat part so that a certain amount protrudes outside the main body mat part and through an overlapping part overlapping the outer edge part of the main body mat part It can be made to be pinched by the said overlap part of the mat member provided with the outer edge side mat part formed with the synthetic resin.
[0018]
By using the overlapping portion of the mat member as a sandwiching portion of the wireless communication thin piece, a dedicated member necessary for mounting the wireless communication chip for ID recognition in which the wireless communication thin piece and the sheet are combined is not required. Is the same as an ordinary mat member not equipped with a communication flake, and the structure is simple.
[0019]
The thin piece for wireless communication in the wireless communication chip structure for ID recognition may have a width equal to or smaller than the overlapping width of the overlapping portion. Thereby, it can fit in an overlap part well.
[0020]
The wireless communication thin piece in the ID recognition wireless communication chip structure has a longitudinal shape, an antenna for wireless communication is formed along the longitudinal direction, and the width of the thin piece is equal to or smaller than the overlapping width of the overlapping portion. The thin piece may be arranged so that the longitudinal direction of the thin piece is along the longitudinal direction of the overlapping portion. As a result, the antenna can be made compact while being sufficiently long to increase the sensitivity of automatic ID recognition.
[0021]
The thin piece for wireless communication in the wireless communication chip structure for ID recognition has a longitudinal shape, an antenna for wireless communication is formed along the longitudinal direction, and the thin piece is covered with the sheet in its width direction, The thin piece is displaceable in the sheet so as to eliminate the difference between the thermal expansion of the thin piece and the thermal expansion coefficient of the overlapping portion in the longitudinal direction, and the elongation accompanying the thermal expansion is allowed. be able to.
[0022]
The wireless communication chip structure for ID recognition made of a thin piece for wireless communication covered with the sheet has a functional part such as a foot wipe part on the surface, a mat part formed of rubber or elastic synthetic resin, and the mat part A mat member having a joining piece portion formed of rubber or elastic synthetic resin partially joined to the back surface is sandwiched between overlapping portions of the mat portion and the joining piece portion. The ID can be made readable. Even if such an attachment target is held between the overlapping portions, the thickness is small, and the functions such as thermal expansion absorption, water resistance, and insulation described above can be enhanced.
[0023]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the examples shown in the drawings.
FIG. 1 shows a mat member 1 such as a foot cleaning mat mainly used for rental. The mat member 1 includes a main body mat portion 2 having a rectangular shape. The main body mat portion 2 has a footcloth pile 4 (FIG. 8) as a functional portion through a base cloth 3 (see FIGS. 8 and 9). , 9) is implanted. In other words, the pile 4 is planted on the base fabric 3, and the main body mat portion 3 is integrated as a base on the back surface thereof.
[0024]
Around the outer edge portion of the main body mat portion 2, the outer edge side mat portion 5 is integrally joined in a rectangular ring shape. As shown in FIG. 8, the outer edge side mat portion 5 is disposed so as to overlap with the outer edge portion of the main body mat portion 2 by a certain amount, and the overlapping portion 6 is joined to the main body mat portion 2 so as to be integrated. . Both the main body mat portion 2 and the outer edge side mat portion 5 are made of rubber (may be elastic synthetic resin), and are integrated to such an extent that the boundary is not understood by thermocompression bonding (vulcanization adhesion molding, etc.) by heating, It looks like an integral mat part. The main body mat portion 2 can be said to be a base rubber for holding the pile 4 and the outer edge side mat portion 5 is also referred to as an edge rubber. The outer edge side mat portion 5 is formed to be a certain amount thicker than the main body mat portion 2 (although the same thickness may be used). In addition to improving the stability and fixability in the state where 1 is laid on the floor, it also has the meaning of producing a design effect.
[0025]
The overlapping portion 6 between the main body mat portion 2 and the outer edge side mat portion 5 is sandwiched with a thin piece 7 for wireless communication having a width smaller than the width of the overlapping portion 6 (overlap amount or overlapping width). The thin piece 7 for wireless communication is a small and thin wireless automatic recognition IC chip, and is a small, extremely thin strip-like piece having flexibility as shown in a plan view in FIG. That is, it has a long and narrow shape (rectangular shape). For example, the size is about 20 to 40 mm in length, 2 to 7 mm in width, and about 0.2 to 0.7 mm in thickness.
[0026]
The wireless communication thin piece 7 includes an ultra-small IC chip 8 and a transmission / reception antenna 9 connected thereto, which can be exemplified by being laminated with a resin film. As the wireless communication thin piece 7, for example, as shown in FIG. 5, a chip 8 is used as a main element, and the chip 8 is integrated with a base film 10 with a sealing material 11 (resin or the like) and connected to the chip 8. Thus, the linear antenna 9 is formed by applying a very thin metal foil and, if necessary, predetermined metal plating. A laminate base (resin film or the like) 12 is bonded and laminated to the base film 10 via an adhesive layer (not shown) so as to cover the chip 8 and the antenna 9 on the base film 10, and is a strip-like flexible film. IC chip flakes that are extremely thin.
[0027]
As shown in FIG. 6, the circuit configuration of such a wireless communication thin piece 7 includes a chip (IC) 8 and an antenna 9 as main components, and the chip 8 includes a power generation circuit 15, a transmission circuit 16, A memory 17 is provided as storage means, and these are electrically connected. The memory 17 is composed of, for example, a ROM, in which specific identification data (ID) is written and stored. The IDs are different from each other for each mat member 1, and this ID is a radio that will be described later. Each mat member 1 can be identified by being automatically recognized by a type reading device (ID recognition device).
[0028]
Specifically, according to the data carrier method, in FIG. 6, an electromagnetic wave having a specific frequency is transmitted from the transmitting / receiving unit 21 of the reading device (recognizing device) 20 toward the wireless communication thin piece 7 embedded in the mat member 1. Then, the radio wave is received by the chip 8 via the antenna 9, the power generation circuit 17 is activated based on that, and predetermined power generation is performed, and the transmission circuit 16 is operated using this as a power source. The oscillation circuit 16 reads an ID unique to the chip 8 (mat member 1) stored in the memory 17 and outputs (transmits) the ID as radio wave ID information from the antenna 9 to the reading device 20 side. The reading device 20 receives the ID information by the radio wave and recognizes it by the reading processing unit (recognition processing unit) 22. The recognized ID data is taken in and stored in a peripheral device (not shown), and is used for, for example, history reference and sorting of the mat member 1.
[0029]
The wireless communication thin piece 7 is sandwiched between the main mat portion 2 and the outer edge mat portion 5 of the mat member 1 as it is in the process of thermocompression bonding (vulcanization adhesion, etc.). However, preferably, the wireless communication thin piece 7 can be held between the overlapping portions in a state where all or a part of the thin piece 7 is covered with a predetermined sheet.
[0030]
For example, as illustrated in FIG. 7, the wireless communication thin piece 7 is wrapped by a flexible sheet 25. In this example, the sheet 25 has a dimension that is equal to or larger than the length of the wireless communication thin piece 7 (preferably longer than that) and has an area (size) that can cover the front and back of the thin piece 7. The sheet 25 is folded at one side edge of the thin piece 7 and is folded at the other side edge with both ends of the communication thin piece 7 being opened, and a folded portion 28 (one of the sheets) Side edge) overlaps with the other side edge, which is the other starting edge of the sheet 25, by a certain amount. The wireless communication thin piece 7 wrapped with the sheet 25 can be referred to as a wireless communication composite thin piece 29 for automatic ID recognition.
[0031]
In this way, the thin piece 7 is covered with the sheet 25. However, the sheet 25 and the thin piece 7 are not in an adhesive state, and the thin piece 7 is non-joined / non-integrated with respect to the sheet 25. In a state of being wrapped in the sheet 25, it can be displaced within the sheet, that is, can expand and contract with respect to the sheet 25 when its own thermal expansion occurs. The sheet 25 absorbs such thermal expansion of the thin piece 7, specifically, thermal expansion due to heat received by the thin piece 7 held between the main body mat portion 2 and the outer edge side mat portion 5. In addition to preventing damage to the antenna 9 such as damage and disconnection, it also serves as a waterproof sheet that protects the flakes 7 from water when the mat member 1 is washed.
[0032]
The main body mat portion 2 and the outer edge side mat portion 5 are formed with a large number of minute holes for facilitating the removal of moisture during washing, so that the thin piece 7 can be protected from moisture during washing of the mat member 1 or the like. This is useful in the sense that the ID output function of the flake 7 is disabled. Further, the sheet 25 also functions as an insulating sheet that electrically insulates the thin piece 7 from the surroundings. This is because, after the main body mat portion 2 and the outer edge side mat portion 5 are heat-bonded (vulcanized and bonded), a predetermined coating layer is formed on the back surface thereof, and then the rubber layer is made conductive. In some cases, the thin piece 7 is grounded (grounded) through the mat member 1 laid on the surface. However, preventing the grounding does not impair the radio wave reception / transmission function for ID output by the wireless communication thin piece 7. This is significant in terms of how to do so.
[0033]
The sheet 25 covering the thin piece 7 may have a material (for example, resin) itself having low friction, water resistance, and insulation with the thin piece described above. Can be applied to one or both surfaces of the base material with a material that improves the low friction, water resistance and insulation, such as a resin. In the example shown in FIG. 7, resin coating layers 26 and 27 coated with, for example, a predetermined resin, such as silicon resin or epoxy resin, are formed on both surfaces of a sheet 25 made of paper or the like as a base material. By the layer, all of the above-mentioned low friction properties (easiness of slipping), water resistance and insulation properties are enhanced.
[0034]
Note that even if the sheet 25 does not have all of the above three functions, the sheet 25 having the function of any one or a combination of two or more of its low friction properties, water resistance, and insulation properties. Even when wrapped, the above-described certain effects can be obtained according to the functions that can be exhibited.
[0035]
The wireless communication thin piece 7 wrapped in the sheet 25 as described above, in other words, the wireless communication composite thin piece 29 for automatic ID recognition, includes the main body mat portion (base rubber) 2 of the mat member 1 and the outer edge side mat portion ( Embedded in the overlapping portion 6 with the edge rubber) in the thermal bonding process of both. As for the arrangement, the thin piece 7 is set and sandwiched so that the extending direction of the antenna 9 in this example is along the longitudinal direction of the overlapping portion 6. In other words, the longitudinal direction of the thin piece 7 and one side of the mat member 1 (outer edge side mat portion 5) are arranged substantially parallel to each other. ID recognition IC chip) can be accommodated in the overlapping portion 6.
[0036]
Further, in the example of FIG. 7 , the both ends of the thin piece 7 are wrapped with the sheet 25, but after the thin piece 7 is wrapped with the sheet 25 as shown in a modified example in FIG. Both ends can be sealed with sealing portions 25a and 25c, and the folded portion of the sheet 25 can also be sealed with the sealing portion 25b, so that the thin piece 7 can be enclosed (displaceable) in the sheet 25. .
[0037]
As a further modification, as shown in FIG. 11, the thin piece 7 is accommodated in a cylindrical sheet 35 having both ends open (the open ends can be sealed), or as shown in FIG. The thin piece 7 is accommodated in the bag-shaped sheet 36 opened at one end, or the thin piece 7 is accommodated in the bag-shaped sheet 36 opened at one end as shown in FIG. Can also be sealed. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of improving the water resistance and insulation of the flakes 7, the flakes are covered with a predetermined heat shrink film in a substantially intimate contact state, or the flakes 7 are immersed in a predetermined resin bath so that the entire flakes 7 are covered. It is also possible to cover with a film of resin or the like.
[0038]
Further, as shown in FIG. 2, a link ID display unit 40 determined in association with the ID stored in the thin piece 7 is formed on the back surface of the mat member 2 (the main body mat unit 2 or the outer mat side mat unit 5). can do. For example, as shown in FIG. 15, the link ID is conceptually a character such as a number that is previously associated (associated) with an ID as electronic data stored in the electronic on the thin piece (chip) 7. A link ID 41 (see also FIG. 2) made up of symbols / codes or a combination thereof is displayed on the display unit 40 so as to be visible with the naked eye, for example.
[0039]
The form of the display unit 40 is such that, for example, the display piece 42 on which the link ID 41 is displayed is attached to the mat member 1 by an adhesive, heat welding, or a combination thereof on the back surface of the mat member 1 or the like. Or may be displayed directly on the back surface of the mat member 1 by printing, stamping, printing, or other display method. And link ID41 displayed on this display part 40 is linked | related with ID memorize | stored in the thin piece 7, but this correlation also includes the case where stored ID and link ID are the same.
[0040]
By providing such a display unit 40 of the link ID 41 separately from the thin piece 7 in which the original ID is stored, even if the thin piece 7 becomes inoperative or malfunctions, the link ID can be seen. In this case, the ID stored in the slice 7 can be specified, and as a result, the mat member 1 (which can no longer automatically recognize the ID) can be identified, so that even if the slice 7 is broken, it is guaranteed. It is safe.
[0041]
In the above description, the case where the thin piece 7 is sandwiched between the mat body 2 of the mat member 1 and the outer mat side mat portion 5 has been described. However, as shown in FIG. On the mat part 5. The joining piece portion 45 can be joined, and the joining surface (overlapping portion) can be sandwiched between the above-described wireless communication thin pieces 7 alone or in the state of the composite thin piece 29 covered (wrapped) with the sheet 25 or the like. . The joining piece portion 45 is a rubber piece made of rubber (synthetic resin may be used), for example, and is integrated with the back surface of the main body mat portion 2 or the like by thermocompression bonding (vulcanization adhesion between vulcanized rubbers) or joining at room temperature with an adhesive. Then, the thin piece 7 is sandwiched between these joint surfaces and integrated.
[0042]
This structure or method can be adopted as an alternative to the structure shown in FIG. 9 and, of course, the mat member 1 already existing as a product can be identified by giving an ID, or the aforementioned thin piece 7 can be broken for some reason. This is convenient when the thin piece 7 is exchanged. Even in this case, for example, the outer edge side mat portion 5 only replaces the joining piece portion 45, and is common in that the thin piece 7 is embedded (embedded) in the joining portion (overlapping portion).
[0043]
Also in this embodiment, the position of the thin piece 7 can be accommodated in the same position as shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 3, and the structure of the thin piece 7 is as shown in FIGS. The same. Furthermore, the structure of covering the thin piece 7 by wrapping it with the sheet 25 or the like can be applied as it is with the examples of FIGS. 7 and 10 to 13. Absorption of thermal expansion), water resistance and insulation can be improved.
[0044]
In addition, as shown in FIG. 16, it is suitable for the joining piece part 45 to employ | adopt the shape corresponding to the shape of the thin piece 7 (If a thin piece is strip shape, it makes a longitudinal shape according to it.) As shown in FIG. 16, the joining piece 45 can be provided substantially parallel to one side of the mat member 1. In FIG. 16, the joining piece portion 45 is entirely or partially fitted in the thickness direction in the portion (the main body mat portion 2 or the outer edge side mat portion 5) of the mat member 1 corresponding to the joining location of the joining piece portion 45. You may form a recessed part and join the joining piece part 45 through the thin piece 7 there.
[0045]
As shown in FIG. 16, the link ID display unit 40 associated therewith can be provided separately from the ID stored in the wireless communication thin piece 7 in this example, thereby providing the same effect as described above. Is obtained.
[0046]
15 and 16, it is not always necessary that the mat member 1 is formed by joining the main body mat portion 2 and the outer edge side mat portion 5, and may be integrally formed as a mat portion from the beginning. Good. That is, the joining piece portion 45 is joined to the integral mat portion from the beginning through the thin piece 7.
[0047]
In the above description, the wireless communication thin piece 7 has a strip shape (longitudinal shape), but this is influenced by the fact that an antenna is formed on the chip externally (to make the antenna as long as possible). . If the antenna is built in the chip and a certain antenna performance can be exhibited, the thin piece can be set to a square, a circle, or any other appropriate shape. And when covering a thin piece with a sheet | seat, what is necessary is just to implement | achieve the coating form according to the shape of the thin piece.
[0048]
As described above, in this embodiment, wireless automatic recognition based on RFID (Radio Frequency Identification, radio frequency identification, data carrier: storing information (ID) in an electronic circuit and recognizing the ID through communication by non-contact communication) Using an ID chip (ID tag), the ultra-thin RFID chip is wrapped with silicon paper between the rubber of the mat member and bonded with high heat pressure, and the RFID chip and the mat identification number (linked number) are linked. Therefore, as described above, the durability of the RFID chip and the history data already stored can be protected even when the ID is not required to be read.
[0049]
That is, an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) chip that is a wireless automatic identification ID chip that stores an ID, which is identification information unique to the mat member, in the mat member to be identified and recognizes the ID by communication using non-contact communication. ID is displayed, and a mat ID number (link number) that is a separate link ID linked to be associated with the chip ID is displayed separately from the chip ID stored in the RFID chip The part is formed.
[0050]
The mat ID number of the link ID display unit is a form that can be physically read by human eyes, or a form that is read by a method different from RFID, such as a barcode, and is directly and physically assigned to the ID management object. Or a non-electronic recording form that is physically attached via an additional piece.
[0051]
Further, the mat individual identification number is described in an optically readable form such as a number, a letter, a symbol, a code, a combination thereof, or a barcode code.
[0052]
As a medium for holding the link ID (individual identification number), for example, as shown in FIGS. 17 and 18 , a transparent or semi-transparent (translucent) rubber or synthetic resin bonded body 51 is used as a base material. An individual recognition number printing unit 51 is formed on the back surface of the transparent substrate by reverse numbers and letters. On the other hand, the surface side (the side that looks inverted) is covered with a resin film 52 (for example, PET) as a cover film. And as shown in FIG. 19 , the side in which the printing part 51 was formed is applied to the back surface of the mat part 2 or 5, the base material 50 is crimped | bonded to the mat part back surface at high temperature, and the cover film 51 is peeled after that. . Thereby, an operator or an operator can see the individual identification number (inverted display) through the transparent base material 50 in a face-to-face configuration. In this case, since the printing part 51 is covered with the transparent base material 50, there is no abrasion of the printing part, and there is an effect that the base material 50 is protected by the cover film 52 at the time of high-temperature pressure bonding. The printing unit may be a barcode or the like that is read from the surface of the substrate 50 by a barcode reader or the like.
[0053]
In the above description, the wireless communication thin piece 7 has a strip shape (longitudinal shape), but this is influenced by the fact that an antenna is formed on the chip externally (to make the antenna as long as possible). . If the antenna is built in the chip and a certain antenna performance can be exhibited, the thin piece can be set to a square, a circle, or any other appropriate shape. And when covering a thin piece with a sheet | seat, what is necessary is just to implement | achieve the coating form according to the shape of the thin piece.
