Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device with an electronic component in a textile surrounding and to a method for producing the device.
  • Smart labels will in future become highly significant in the textiles sector in respect of the logistics of the production process, sales and the care for or cleaning of textiles.
  • smart labels may be provided with contactlessly scannable transponder systems (known as RFID tags), by means of which for example textile-specific information can be retrieved.
  • RFID tags contactlessly scannable transponder systems
  • textile-specific information can be retrieved.
  • preferred application areas for textiles provided with such tags are appropriate labeling of rented laundry, laundry in laundry establishments or stock keeping.
  • the “smart label” is resistant to the production and cleaning processes usually used for textiles and also withstands use of the textiles for their intended purposes. If the textiles labeled in this way are items of clothing, they should also not detract from their comfort when they are being worn or used.
  • “smart labels” typically comprise a small silicon chip which contains a processor, a device for data transmission (for example a modulator) and a limited memory for receiving specific data. Also provided is an integrated coil, which together with a capacitor and the silicon chip forms an oscillating circuit, the resonant frequency of which is tuned to a specific frequency. Typical frequencies used are 13.56 MHz and also 135 kHz.
  • the coil which is an electrical conductor loop with one or more turns, is brought into the alternating magnetic field of a transmitting antenna for the reading process of the contactless transponder system, so that an inductive coupling between the transmitter and the antenna coil of the “smart label” is set up.
  • the alternating magnetic field has the effect of inducing an electrical voltage in the coil, which is used in rectified form for the voltage supplied to an integrated transponder circuit (transponder IC or RFID chip).
  • transponder IC integrated transponder circuit
  • loop areas of approximately 25 cm 2 and 1 to 10 coil turns are customary.
  • the coil 100 comprises metallic conductor tracks 102 applied to a thin film of plastic (not visible in FIG. 4) in a planar arrangement with a spiral structure.
  • the metallic conductor tracks 102 may either be printed on or etched out by a lithographic step and a subsequent etching process from a film coated for example with copper. The structuring process is typically followed by electrochemical reinforcement of the conductor tracks 102 to achieve a low series resistance of the coil 100 .
  • the transponder IC 104 (known as the RFID chip) is brought into electrical contact on one side of the coil 100 .
  • On the rear side of the film there is a metal bridge (not represented in FIG. 4), through which electrical contact has to be established in order to realize a connection between the two ends of the coil and the chip 104 .
  • the prior art also discloses the use of contactless transponder systems for “smart labels” in which the transponder IC is accommodated in a coin-shaped hard plastic disk, in which the antenna coil is also located.
  • Such conventional systems are even worse than the film-based systems described at the beginning for being embedded in textile surroundings.
  • a device in particular a “smart label” for textiles, comprises at least one textile backing, at least one flexible wire-like and/or thread-like electrical conductor, which has at least one connection point for an electronic component, and at least one electronic component, which is electrically connected to the connection point of the conductor, wherein the conductor is arranged on or in the textile backing.
  • the conductor which may be for example a spiral-shaped antenna coil of a transponder system, is flexible and is of a wire-like and/or thread-like form. These flexible properties of the conductor allow it to be arranged directly in or on a textile backing.
  • the device according to the invention does not represent a foreign body in a textile surrounding, since neither a backing film nor a hard housing has to be used.
  • a device according to the invention consequently has considerably improved wearing comfort and also more advantageous loading properties in comparison with the conventional “smart labels” explained at the beginning.
  • the textile backing is preferably a woven fabric.
  • a woven fabric is understood here as meaning a textile fabric made up of two systems of threads, crossing in particular at right angles, which are referred to—as usual—as warp and weft.
  • the warp lies in the longitudinal direction of the weaving process, while the weft direction extends transversely to the weaving direction.
  • the textile backing may be, for example, a portion of woven fabric which, together with the conductor or conductors arranged on or in it, can be applied for example to a textile to be labeled.
  • the textile backing may also be the textile itself that is to be provided with a device according to the invention.
  • the woven fabric has at least one electrically conductive weft and/or warp thread and the conductor comprises at least one electrically conductive weft and/or warp thread of the woven fabric.
  • the conductor is arranged in the textile backing and itself represents part of the woven fabric of which the textile backing consists.
  • the conductor which may be for example an antenna coil for a transponder IC, is a component part of the textile backing itself, such a device according to the invention can be embedded particularly well in a textile surrounding.
  • the conductor preferably comprises at least one electrically conductive weft thread and at least one electrically conductive warp thread, which are connected electrically conductively to one another at their crossing point.
  • two wiring levels which extend perpendicularly to one another and are independent of one another may be provided by corresponding electrically conductive weft and warp threads, which can specifically be electrically connected to one another at their crossing points.
  • the contacting process of a weft thread with a warp thread at their crossing point may take place for example by means of a stamp or a roller, in particular by a fusing, soldering or adhesive-bonding operation. Consequently, suitable electrical connections of warp and weft threads can be used to produce a complex path of the electrical conductor in the woven fabric in a simple way.
  • the conductor preferably has two connection points, which form the coil connections and are electrically connected to the electronic component.
  • the connection points of the conductor may be, for example, weft and/or warp threads, which are connected to contact areas of the electronic component, for example by a soldering or adhesive-bonding step.
  • the electrically conductive weft and/or warp thread is preferably an electrically conductive yarn which comprises electrically insulating fibers and at least one metal wire embedded or spun therein.
  • the electrically conductive weft and/or warp thread may also directly comprise a thin metal wire, for example a copper wire.
  • Such metal wires, possibly spun with insulating fibers, are more robust and flexible than conductor tracks printed onto a film.
  • metal filaments or wires which are specifically surface-treated for the special surrounding conditions of textiles can be advantageously produced. In particular in comparison with coils produced by printing processes, metal wires generally have a higher electrical conductivity.
  • a further advantage in comparison with coils structured by etching processes on films is also the lower metal consumption when metal wires are used. This is so because, in production of conductor tracks by an etching process, a large part of the metal layer has to be removed for the definition of the metal track and must be recovered from the etching solution, causing costs to be incurred. If, for example, the conductor is designed as a spiral coil for an antenna coil of a transponder IC, a coil with comparable inductance but considerably increased quality can be produced by the invention.
  • the metal wire preferably has an electrically insulating sheathing.
  • the conductor is not arranged in the textile backing but on the same.
  • the conductor preferably has for this purpose a metal wire, which in particular has an electrically insulating sheathing.
  • the conductor is preferably an electrically conductive yarn which comprises electrically insulating fibers and at least one metal wire embedded or spun therein. Although such a conductor is more voluminous due to the additional textile thread, it is also given a stronger textile character. When it is connected to the electronic component, it must be ensured in this case that the textile thread (which is not electrically conductive) does not disturb the contacting with respect to the metal wire.
  • the conductor is preferably connected to the textile backing by an adhesive bond.
  • the textile backing may be coated with an adhesive, for example a hot-melt adhesive, which is preferably made possible by ironing the conductor on.
  • the conductor is an electrically conductive yarn, it may be additionally provided, if appropriate, with an adhesive, for example in that it is impregnated with adhesive.
  • the conductor may be an electrically conductive coil, which has for example been wound spirally around a hollow body and placed and fixed on the textile backing.
  • a second textile backing may advantageously be arranged on the first textile backing in such a way that the conductor is embedded between the backings.
  • This assembly of two textile backings with an electrical conductor arranged between permits particularly efficient mechanical protection of the conductor and a high load-bearing capacity of the device according to the invention.
  • the electronic component is also advantageously arranged between the two textile backings.
  • the electronic component may be an integrated circuit (IC), in particular a transponder IC (known as an RFID chip).
  • IC integrated circuit
  • a transponder IC known as an RFID chip
  • a conductor which represents a spiral, electrically conductive coil, this is a way of creating a contactlessly readable transponder system which can be integrated in a textile surrounding in an outstanding way.
  • the electronic component is preferably embedded in an insulator and attached to the textile backing.
  • a waterproof and soft material is expediently used for the insulator.
  • a method for producing a device comprises the steps of:
  • connection point of the conductor to at least one electronic component.
  • the textile backing is preferably a woven fabric and the conductor preferably has a multiplicity of electrically conductive weft and warp threads, the method comprising the step of electrically connecting at least one weft thread to a warp thread at their crossing point.
  • the conductor may be connected to the textile backing by an adhesive bond.
  • a device according to the invention has the following advantages.
  • the electrical conductivity of a metal wire used in the electrically conductive wire-like and/or thread-like conductor is higher than that of conventionally used conductor tracks on plastic films. This is manifested for example in a higher quality of an antenna coil which can be formed by the conductor.
  • a device according to the invention allows the coil connections to be led out without “back-wiring” with a bridge, as was necessary in the case of conventional coils.
  • the production method according to the invention can be reeled off from spindles in a highly parallel manner.
  • the “textile label” can be outstandingly incorporated in a textile surrounding and can be comfortably worn, washed and ironed.
  • FIG. 1( a ) shows a schematic representation of an endless fabric strip, in which thread-like conductors are incorporated in the warp direction and with a specific repeat in the weft direction
  • FIG. 1( b ) shows a schematic representation of a detail from the fabric strip shown in FIG. 1( a ), the thread-like conductor forming by means of local contacting points an electrically conductive coil;
  • FIG. 2( a )-( d ) shows schematic representations of a method for contacting a wire-like or thread-like conductor at contact areas of an electronic component
  • FIG. 3 shows schematic representations of the electronic component contacted and cast in an insulator
  • FIG. 4 shows a conventional “smart label” with a metal track coil on a film base.
  • FIG. 1( a ) Schematically shown in FIG. 1( a ) is an endless fabric strip in which wire-like or thread-like conductors 10 have been woven, for example on a loom for narrow fabrics. These electrically conductive threads extend both in the warp direction Wa (longitudinal direction) and with a specific repeat in the weft direction We (transverse direction). Such an arrangement may also be produced two-dimensionally on a loom for sheet-like fabrics.
  • Each of the conductors 10 indicated by a black line may comprise one or more conductive threads.
  • the conductors 10 may also be yarns, in the case of which a thin metal wire is spun with at least one insulating fiber, for example a synthetic fiber. Alternatively, a thin metal wire may also be used directly as the wire-like conductor.
  • FIG. 1( b ) Represented in FIG. 1( b ) is a detail from the endless strip shown in FIG. 1( a ).
  • the electrically conductive weft and warp threads 10 running over one another can be connected at the crossing points by suitable local contacting points 12 , which are schematically represented in FIG. 1( b ) as black dots.
  • the contacting points 12 of the individual electrical conductors 10 may be embossed by a die or a roller, in particular by fusing, soldering or adhesive bonding of the metallic conductors 10 .
  • the contacting points 12 form a spiral conductor, which has a planar coil structure. For better illustration of the electrical conduction path, the coil is emphasized in FIG. 1( b ) by a dashed line.
  • the 4 ⁇ 5 contacting points 12 respectively connect two conductor tracks to one another, i.e. in each case a weft thread to a warp thread 10 , so that a spiral current path is formed through the woven fabric.
  • An additional contacting point 14 allows the current path to be led out from the interior of the coil without a bridge being necessary, as in the prior art, as a “back-wiring means”.
  • the pieces of the conductors 10 protruding laterally beyond the coil have no effect, since their ends are open and no current can flow.
  • the edges of the woven fabric may be additionally insulated, which can take place for example by encapsulation using casting or fusing techniques.
  • portions of line which are not required can optionally be severed by a knife or a punch.
  • a transponder IC RFID chip
  • the conductor 10 is arranged in the textile backing, in which electrically conductive weft or warp threads of the textile backing comprising a woven fabric are used as conductors 10 .
  • electrically conductive weft or warp threads of the textile backing comprising a woven fabric are used as conductors 10 .
  • such a conductor is arranged on the textile backing, for example by means of an adhesive step.
  • a thin coil wire for example a copper wire, which is sheathed with silver and insulating varnish, as also produced and used for conventional coils and transformers, is suitable in particular for such a conductor.
  • such a thin coil wire is preferably wound around a hollow body, on which the beginning and end of the wire are firmly clamped by means of a holding device. Immediately thereafter, the beginning and end of the wire are attached in an electrically conducting manner to the transponder IC, as described in detail later. Subsequently, the transponder IC may be sealed with a drop of insulating, wash-resistant and temperature-resistant plastic and subsequently placed on the textile backing, which has been coated for example with hot-melt adhesive for textiles, by stripping it from the winding device. The transponder IC with the coil is fixed on the textile backing by brief heating and application of pressure.
  • the textile backing with the “smart label” created in this way can subsequently be ironed into a textile and assume its function. After the operation of ironing it onto the textile, which may be for example an item of clothing or an item of laundry, the coil with the transponder IC is protected from both sides by woven textile fabric and no longer needs any additional encapsulation.
  • Coil wires have proven to be particularly suitable for the thin metal wires used, for example the coil wire TW-D with a diameter of 40 ⁇ m from the company Elektro-Feindraht AG, Eschholzmatt, Switzerland.
  • This copper wire is silver-coated and provided with a polyamide insulating varnish. It has been specifically tested for textile applications and proven to be washable and also resistant to dry cleaning and temperatures of up to 100° C.
  • such a wire is preferably wound up on a winding device.
  • the winding device may be, for example, a cuboidal body with an edge length of 2.7 cm or a round cylinder with a diameter of 3.04 cm, onto which seven turns of the copper wire are wound.
  • the winding device has two clamps, by which the beginning and end of the wire can be fixed.
  • the transponder IC is brought into electrical contact with the ends of the wire, which is represented in FIGS. 2 ( a ) to ( d ).
  • the solder paste 20 may comprise for example solder balls and a flux. PbAgSn is suitable in particular as the solder.
  • connection points of the conductor 10 are arranged on the contact areas 18 prepared in this way of the transponder IC 16 and locally heated, for example by means of a gas flame, a laser or an electric arc, until the solder melts and bonds with the wire 10 .
  • the conductor 10 used has an insulating sheathing 22 , which is removed by the heat effect (schematically represented by a lightning symbol in FIG. 2( c )).
  • the conductor 10 is held by means of holding clamps 24 in relation to the contact areas 18 covered with solder paste.
  • the result of the electrical and mechanical fixing by the heating operation is schematically represented in FIG. 2( d ).
