  Following this, Patent Document 3 states that ““ in a continuous pulp base paper having a predetermined width, a conductive material is provided in parallel with the longitudinal direction of the pulp base paper and has a function as an antenna. A "paper with an antenna inserted" is disclosed, in which the inserted region and the region where the conductive material is not included are alternately provided in a stripe shape. However, the conductive material functioning as an antenna spreads continuously in the longitudinal direction, and there is a risk that the flexibility and appearance of Japanese paper may be impaired. Further, although “a jetting device for jetting a conductive substance from a nozzle” is described as a manufacturing method thereof, it is not described as feasible including an IC chip attaching method.

  On the other hand, Patent Document 4 states that “in Japanese paper embedded with an IC chip, the Japanese paper has a two-layer structure of a continuous base paper and a cover paper, and the base paper is longitudinally formed in a concave groove formed continuously in the longitudinal direction. Japanese paper with IC chips embedded therein, characterized in that a tape extending in a direction is fitted and integrated, and IC chips are attached to the tape at regular intervals.

  In this method of manufacturing Japanese paper, “the base paper is continuously made up of the above-mentioned stock that has flowed from the mesh to the outer periphery by rotating the first cylinder horizontally installed in the first tank containing the stock. The first cylinder is provided with a portion that regulates the amount of the stock flowing out from the inside to the outer periphery, and a groove is continuously formed in a part of the base paper, and IC chips are arranged at regular intervals in the groove. A series of tapes attached in step 1 are fitted and integrated, and then a cover paper is made of the stock flowing out from the mesh to the outer periphery by rotating a second cylinder mounted horizontally in the second tank containing the stock. In addition, a method for producing a Japanese paper having an IC chip embedded therein, which is laminated on the base paper and sandwiched with the tape, is employed.

  This Japanese paper is characterized in that when a base paper and a cover paper are made together, a series of tapes with IC chips attached at regular intervals are sandwiched and made. Further, there is disclosed a paper making in which a concave groove is continuously formed in a part of a base paper, and the tape is fitted into the concave groove to be integrated.

  The outer periphery 21 of the air roll 20 preferably rotates in the same direction as the first cylinder 110 and the second cylinder 112 at the same outer peripheral speed. As described above, the IC tape piece 1 is removed from the transport roll 50 by the suction band 25. The IC tape piece 1 is discharged and transferred to the base paper 210 at the transfer band 24 by suction and rotation.

  Next, the operation of the IC tag transfer device 10 in the Japanese paper manufacturing apparatus 100 incorporating the IC tag according to the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

  The Japanese paper manufacturing apparatus 100 incorporating the IC tag 3 of the present invention includes a sensor 60 that senses the position of the marker 6 provided on the IC tape 2, and the manufacturing apparatus 100 includes at least the sensor 60 and the IC tag transfer. A CPU 1000 that interlocks the operations of the transport motor 40 included in the apparatus 10 and the outer periphery 21 included in the air roll 20 is included. The CPU 1000 may control the operations of the first cylinder 110, the second cylinder 112, and the unwinding roll 132 in the tension mechanism 130 in conjunction with each other. The sensor 60 is, for example, a pair of laser transmitter and receiver, and detects the marker 6 when the laser transmitted from the transmitter is blocked by the marker 6. As described above, the marker 6 may be an IC chip itself or the like not particularly specified.

  The CPU 1000 rotates the conveyance motor 40 from the IC tape unwinding reel 120 toward the air roll 20 at a predetermined speed, and stops the conveyance motor 40 at a predetermined time after the sensor 60 senses the position of the marker 6 provided on the IC tape 2. At the same time, the IC tape 2 is cut by the cutting machine 30 and divided into IC tape pieces 1. The predetermined time is determined by comprehensively calculating the rotation speed of the first cylinder 110, the second cylinder 112 and the outer periphery 21, the operation speed of rotation / stop of the transport motor 40, and the like, and the CPU 1000 is interlocked. Adjust element behavior. The IC tape 2 is always maintained at a substantially constant tension by the tension mechanism 130.

  In the IC tag transfer device 10, the outer periphery 21 rotates in conjunction with the conveyance motor 40 via the CPU 1000, and the IC tape piece 1 conveyed from the cutting machine 30 via the conveyance table 52 is exchanged with the conveyance roll 50. The air roll 20 is sucked between them, and the outer periphery 21 of the air roll is rotated. As described above, the outer periphery 21 of the air roll 20 is preferably rotated in the same direction as the first cylinder 110 and the second cylinder 112 at the same outer peripheral speed.

  That is, the CPU 1000 rotates the outer periphery 21 in conformity with the rotation speeds of the first cylinder 110 and the second cylinder 112, and controls the rotation start, rotation speed, and rotation stop operations of the transport motor 40 linked to the outer periphery 21. To do. In this way, the CPU 1000 places the IC tape piece 1 on the base paper 210 that is attached to the felt 150 and is carried in the direction of the upper end line 22 of the air roll 20 from the first cylinder 110 at a fixed position 212 that maintains a fixed interval. The operations of the transport motor 40 and the outer periphery 21 are controlled so as to transfer.

As described above, the CPU 1000 controls a plurality of components of the Japanese paper manufacturing apparatus 100, but the first cylinder 110, the second cylinder 112, the outer periphery 21 of the air roll 20, and the unwinding roll 132 in the tension mechanism 130 are It is the simplest to control to rotate in the same direction at the same outer peripheral speed. The CPU 1000 controls, for example, the rotation start, rotation speed, and rotation stop operation of the transport motor 40 in conjunction with the rotation of the outer circumference 21 and cuts the IC tape 2 by the cutting machine 30. During this time, the tension of the IC tape 2 Is always kept substantially constant by the tension mechanism 130.

  As another embodiment of the Japanese paper manufacturing apparatus 100 incorporating the IC tag 3 according to the present invention, first, in the first tank 114, the paper material 202 is placed in the first mesh 111 of the first cylinder 110. A portion for restricting the amount of water flowing out from the inside to the outer periphery is provided, and the concave groove 214 is continuously formed at a fixed position 212 at a fixed interval in the longitudinal direction and the short direction of the base paper 210. The CPU 1000 transfers the IC tape piece 1 to the concave groove 214 via the air roll 20 and fits it. Thereafter, the second cylinder 112 inside the second tank 116 containing the paper material 202 ′ is rotated to make the cover paper 220 with the paper material 202 ′ flowing out from the second mesh 113 to the outer periphery, and paper is made on the base paper 210. Then, the IC tape piece 1 is sandwiched. In this way, it is possible to obtain the Japanese paper 200 in which the IC tag 3 is fitted in the concave groove 214 and then engraved.

  Next, an embodiment of the tension mechanism 130 in the Japanese paper manufacturing apparatus 100 will be described with reference to FIG.

  The tension mechanism 130 is disposed between the IC tape unwinding reel 120 and the transport motor 40 (the cutting machine 30), and has a function of keeping the tension of the IC tape 2 substantially constant. The tension mechanism 130 includes an unwinding roll 132, a dancer roll 134, and a roll 136, and the IC tape 2 unwound from the IC tape unwinding reel 120 by the unwinding roll 132 passes through the dancer roll 134 and the roll 136, and is constant. In the state in which the tension is energized, the sheet is conveyed to the cutting machine 30 by the conveyance motor 40.

  Since the tension mechanism 130 includes the dancer roll 134, the IC tape 2 between the unwinding roll 132 and the transport motor 40 (the cutting machine 30) is urged with a certain tension so as not to be dub. Although the IC tape 2 moves by the unwinding roll 132 rotating at a constant speed, the transport motor 40 stops when the cutting machine 30 cuts the IC tape 2. As described above, even when the IC tape 2 is stopped, the dancer roll 134 is lowered so that a constant tension is applied between the IC tape unwinding reel 120 and the transport motor 40 (the cutting machine 30). I can do it.

  A manufacturing method of the Japanese paper 200 having the concave groove 214 and having the IC tag according to another embodiment formed thereon will be described in detail below. As shown in FIG. 5 (c), the Japanese paper 200 has a base paper 210 in which concave grooves 214 are formed at fixed positions 212, which are held at constant intervals in the longitudinal direction and the short direction, respectively. An IC tape piece 1 adhered or fitted in the concave groove 214 and a cover paper 220 that covers the IC tape piece 1 and is made on the base paper 210 are included. 6A is a perspective view of the back surface of the base paper 210. The surface of the base paper 210 is attached to the felt 150, and the IC tape piece 1 is fitted into the concave groove 214 formed on the back surface. Are combined.

  FIG. 6B shows a cross-sectional view taken along the line B-B in FIG. 6A, and a concave groove 214 is formed at a certain position 212 on the lower surface (back surface) of the base paper 210. The concave grooves 214 reduce the roughness of the first mesh 111 of the first cylinder 110, thereby suppressing the passage of the paper material 202. For this reason, the thickness of the base paper 210 in this portion is reduced. That is, the first cylinder 110 has a cylindrical shape having a first mesh 111, and a concave groove 214 is formed at a fixed position 212 that holds a fixed interval in the longitudinal direction and the short direction of the base paper 210. Thus, the site | part which made the mesh fine in the cylindrical circumferential direction and axial direction is provided.

  Hereinafter, a method for manufacturing the Japanese paper 200 using the manufacturing apparatus 100 according to the present invention will be described mainly in the case where the concave groove 214 is formed at a certain position 212 on the lower surface of the base paper 210.

  The first cylinder 110 has a cylindrical shape with both ends opened, and the paper material 202 flowing in from the opening adheres to the inner surface of the first cylinder 110 and rises with rotation. At the same time, by passing through the mesh, it flows out to the outer peripheral surface and is pressed by the roller 122, peels off from the outer peripheral surface of the first cylinder 110, adheres to the felt 150, and the base paper 210 is made. However, by providing a portion with the fine mesh at the corresponding portion of the first cylinder 110 at the certain position 212, it becomes difficult for the stock to pass through, and a concave groove 214 is formed in the base paper 210.

  Then, the soft base paper 210 containing moisture moves while adhering to the felt 150, and the IC tape piece 1 is incorporated on the way. The IC tape 2 wound on the IC tape unwinding reel 120 is simultaneously unwound by the transport motor 40 and cut into the plurality of IC tape pieces 1 in the longitudinal direction by the cutting machine 30, and the base paper 210 is cut by the air roll 20. Is fitted into the concave groove 214.

  In this way, the IC tape piece 1 is fitted into the concave groove 214 formed in the base paper 210, and in this state, the IC tape piece 1 adheres to the felt 150 and moves. Here, since the base paper 210 is sufficiently moistened with moisture, if the IC tape piece 1 is made of paper, the base paper 210 is similarly wetted and integrated with the base paper 210 by fitting into the concave groove 214 of the base paper 210. The However, even when the IC tape piece 1 is paper as described above, it is preferable to apply an adhesive on both sides as much as possible. In particular, as described above, when the concave groove 214 is not formed in the base paper 210, and the IC tape piece 1 is adhered to the fixed position 212 that maintains a constant interval in the longitudinal direction and the short direction of the base paper 210, respectively. It is desirable to use an adhesive.

  The base paper 210 in which the IC tape piece 1 is fitted in the concave groove 214 is attached to the felt 150 and moves, and enters the second cylinder 112. The second cylinder 112 rotates at the same speed as the base paper 210, and the cover paper 220 is stacked. That is, as in the case of the first cylinder 110, the paper material 202 ′ accommodated in the second tank 116 flows into the second cylinder 112, and the paper material 202 ′ adhering to the inner surface rises with rotation. Then, it flows out from the second mesh 113 to the outer periphery.

  The paper material 202 ′ flowing out to the outer periphery is combined with the lower surface of the base paper 210 that has moved. FIG. 5C is a cross-sectional view of a state in which the cover paper 220 is made on the base paper 210, and the base paper 210, the IC tape piece 1, and the cover paper 220 are integrated into a Japanese paper 200. In FIG. 5C, the cover paper 220 is laminated on the upper side of the base paper 210, but in the manufacturing apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 1, the cover paper 220 is laminated on the lower side by the second cylinder 112.

  Then, the Japanese paper 200 on which the cover paper 220 is formed is wound around the roller 124 to change its direction and sent to the drying process. As described above, the IC tape pieces 1 cut from the IC tape 2 are continuously and intermittently attached, whereby the IC tape pieces 1 can be easily incorporated in the manufacturing process of the Japanese paper 200. . That is, by adding the IC tape 2 and the IC tag transfer device 10 respectively wound on the IC tape unwinding reel 120 to the existing device, the Japanese paper 200 incorporating the IC tag according to the present invention can be easily manufactured. I can do it.

  Further, the base paper 210 is made on the pre-base paper 300, and the cover paper 220 is made on the base paper 210 with the IC tape piece 1 sandwiched at a predetermined position of the base paper 210 as described above. Japanese paper will be briefly described with reference to FIGS.

  The Japanese paper manufacturing apparatus 100 incorporating the IC tag according to the present invention has a 0th mesh having an outer periphery supported in parallel with the first cylinder 110 inside the 0th tank containing the stock. Zero cylinders are included in the previous step of the first tank 114. By rotating the zeroth cylinder, a belt-like pre-base paper 300 is made from the stock flowing out from the zeroth mesh in the outer circumferential direction and adhered to the felt 150. The zeroth cylinder is the same as the first cylinder 110. The base paper 210 is made from the stock of the first tank 114 flowing out of the first mesh 111 in the outer circumferential direction by rotating at a speed, and the paper is combined with the pre-base paper 300 to produce a three-layered Japanese paper 200. I can do it.

  The Japanese paper 200 in which the IC tag having such a three-layer structure is formed is particularly effective when the concave groove 214 is formed at a certain position 212 on the lower surface of the base paper 210 as described above. When the concave groove 214 is formed on the lower surface of the base paper 210, the base paper 210 becomes thin in the concave groove 214, and when the IC tape piece 1 is fitted, the IC tape piece 1 is seen through from the direction of the base paper 210. It becomes easy to see. Therefore, when it is desired to hide the IC tape pieces 1 being made, the pre-base paper 300 is made on the base paper 210 side to make the IC tape pieces 1 inconspicuous. It is.

  As mentioned above, the Japanese paper in which the IC tag according to the present invention is made and the Japanese paper manufacturing apparatus for producing the same have been described in detail. It is not limited to examples.

  The components of the Japanese paper manufacturing apparatus controlled by the CPU are not particularly limited, and the configuration of the IC tag transfer device and the tension mechanism can be changed as appropriate, so long as the IC tag can be drawn at a certain position on the Japanese paper. It is not limited. There are no particular limitations on the size, material, etc. of Japanese paper or IC tape, and any number of Japanese paper can be selected as long as the number of layers of Japanese paper to be combined is two or more.

  In addition, the present invention can be carried out in a mode in which various improvements, modifications, and changes are added based on the knowledge of those skilled in the art without departing from the gist thereof.

  The Japanese paper manufacturing apparatus and the manufacturing method thereof incorporating the IC tag according to the present invention can be used particularly for manufacturing files including confidential information and high-level documents.
