DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to these specific embodiments. Those skilled in the art should recognize that the present invention covers all possible alternatives, improvements and equivalents within the scope of the claims.

[0027] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that directional words, such as the terms "center", "lateral", "longitudinal", "length", "width", "thickness", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", etc., indicating directions and positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, which are only for the convenience of narrating the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and cannot be understood as limiting the specific scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] Embodiment 1

[0029] like Figure 1-6As shown, a turnover box with RFID is shown, including a box body 1 with a top opening and a box cover 2 covering the opening, the box cover 2 is covered on the box body 1 to form a closed cavity, and also includes an RFID insert label 3 with a plug 6, the box cover 2 is provided with cover eaves 4 on four sides downward, a groove 5 is formed downward at the top of the box cover 2 near the cover eaves 4, and a through hole is also provided at the bottom of the groove 5, the groove 5 is adapted to the RFID insert label 3, and the through hole is adapted to the plug 6; a flat plate 7 extends from the top of the box body 1 to the surrounding areas, and the flat plate 7 has openings corresponding to the groove 5 A slot hole 8 is provided, and criss-cross reinforcing ribs 9 are provided on the outer wall of the box body 1. The reinforcing ribs 9 and the flat plate 7 form a frame body 10 with side openings below the slot hole 8. The slot hole 8 is located at the top of the frame body 10, and a pair of elastic barbs 11 arranged opposite to each other are provided at the bottom of the frame body 10; after the groove 5 is inserted into the slot hole 8, the cover eaves 4 and the frame body 10 form a cavity, the RFID insert label 3 is inserted into the groove 5, and the plug 6 is connected with the elastic barbs 11 after passing through the through hole; the cover eaves 4 is provided with an observation folded hole 12 corresponding to the RFID insert label 3.

[0030] Furthermore, the RFID insert tag 3 includes a PCB board 13 and an RFID tag chip 14 and an RFID tag antenna 15 fixed on the PCB board 13 and connected to each other. The PCB board 13 is in a long strip shape, and the plug 6 is fixed below the PCB board 13 .

[0031] In this embodiment, the RFID insert tag 3 of the turnover box is disposable. For "point-to-point" turnover protection, this "point" can be "between different institutions / units", "between different departments of the same institution / unit", or "between different personnel of the same institution / unit", etc.

[0032] During the handover process, the RFID insert tag 3 is read by the RFID device (including the handheld terminal). If the reading is correct, it means that the turnover box has not been illegally opened. When the turnover box is handed over to the last "point" for authorization to open, the RFID insert tag 3 is first read by the RFID device (including the handheld terminal) and reported to the system. After the system verifies that it is correct, the RFID insert tag 3 is cancelled. At this time, the RFID insert tag 3 is destroyed and the box cover 2 is opened. After the RFID insert tag 3 is destroyed, the items in the box are no longer protected.

[0033] If only some items are taken out of the box, or if the items in the box 1 need to be further protected after manual inspection, the system will regenerate the label data and enter it into the system, and use a new RFID insert label 3 for protection.

[0034] Furthermore, the plug 6 is in an inverted T-shape as a whole.

[0035] When in use, the first step is to buckle the box cover 2 onto the box body 1, and the second step is to insert the RFID plug tag 3 from the groove 5 of the box cover 2, and the hooks of the plug 6 of the RFID plug tag 3 press the elastic hooks 11 of the box body 1 to both sides. After the hooks of the plug 6 of the RFID plug tag 3 are all pressed down into place, the elastic hooks 11 of the box body 1 are reset due to their elasticity, thereby clamping the RFID plug tag 3.

[0036] The box cover 2 is buckled onto the box body 1 , and the cover brim 4 on the side of the box cover 2 and the outer reinforcing ribs 9 of the box body 1 form a closed cavity, so that the RFID insert tag 3 is enclosed in the cavity.

[0037] When opening the box, the PCB insert is broken by observing the broken hole 12 from the outside of the box cover 2, and the box cover 2 and the box body 1 can be separated.

[0038] Furthermore, a sinking platform 17 is formed downwardly on the top of the box cover 2 , and the sinking platform 17 is matched with the box body 1 ; the groove 5 is located on one side of the sinking platform 17 .

[0039] Furthermore, two grooves 5 are formed downwardly on the top of the box cover 2 on both sides of the sink 17, and two slot holes 8 are provided on the flat plate 7 corresponding to the two grooves 5. The reinforcing rib 9 and the flat plate 7 are provided with a frame 10 with side openings under the two slot holes 8, and a pair of elastic barbs 11 arranged opposite to each other are provided in the frame 10.

[0040] The setting of the sink 17 enhances the strength of the box cover 2.

[0041] When in use, a disposable RFID insert tag 3 can be inserted into any groove 5 to lock the box cover 2, the box body 1 and the RFID insert tag 3, thereby achieving the above-mentioned effect.

[0042] Embodiment 2

[0043] like Figure 7 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that a vertically arranged notch 16 is reserved at the middle position of the bottom of the plug 6 of this embodiment.

[0044] When the hooks on both sides of the plug 6 arranged in this way squeeze the elastic hooks 11 of the box body 1 to both sides, the hooks on both sides can move toward the notch 16, which is conducive to pressing all the hooks down under the elastic hooks 11, making it easier to assemble and connect the RFID insert tag 3 with the box cover 2 and the box body 1.

[0045] Embodiment 3

[0046] like Figure 8As shown, the difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the bottom of the plug 6 in this embodiment is a pointed head or an arc head (not shown in the figure).

[0047] When the plug 6 configured in this way squeezes the elastic barbs 11 of the box body 1 toward both sides with the hooks on both sides thereof, the top of the plug 6 has a pointed head or a rounded head (not shown in the figure), and the middle part of the bottom of the plug 6 is smaller in size and can be easily inserted between the two elastic barbs 11, thereby facilitating the assembly and connection of the RFID insert tag 3 with the box cover 2 and the box body 1.

[0048] like Figure 9-11 As shown, the reverse side of the RFID insert tag 3 of the first, second and third embodiments is provided with a notch 18 at the connection between the PCB board 13 and the plug 6. Since the RFID insert tag 3 is combined into one body by locking the box body 1 and the box cover 2, the box cover 2 cannot be opened normally without destroying the RFID insert tag 3 (except for violent destruction). The RFID insert tag can be broken from the outside by observing the broken hole 12 using a tool, and the box cover 2 can be opened at this time. After the RFID insert tag 3 is broken, the RFID chip 14 is physically separated from the RFID tag antenna 15, and the RFID insert tag 3 is destroyed and becomes invalid, so that the RFID insert tag is unique and cannot be reused.

[0049] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are only examples and do not limit the present invention. The functional and structural principles of the present invention can be modified arbitrarily without departing from the principles shown above.
