Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic tag technology, and in particular to a belt with a built-in flexible electronic tag. Background Technology

[0002] Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is a non-contact, two-way data communication method that enables target identification and data exchange via wireless radio frequency. An RFID system mainly consists of electronic tags, readers, and application software. RFID systems operate in frequency bands including low frequency, high frequency, ultra-high frequency, and microwave. Different frequencies of electromagnetic waves have different penetration capabilities and propagation distances, making them suitable for different application scenarios. Electronic tags are electronic devices that store data information in an RFID system, mainly composed of a chip and an antenna. The chip stores data, while the antenna receives and transmits wireless signals. Flexible electronic tags are tags made from flexible substrate materials, characterized by their softness, wearability, and bendability, allowing them to be attached to the surface of irregularly shaped objects.

[0003] Currently, in applications such as product management and anti-counterfeiting traceability based on radio frequency identification (RFID) technology, belts typically use hang tags with electronic labels. However, after a belt is sold, the hang tags may be lost, leading to difficulties in return tracking and high after-sales maintenance costs. Embedding electronic tags with rigid substrates into the belt presents challenges such as complex manufacturing processes, susceptibility to damage after embedding, and impact on the overall appearance and texture of the belt. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the easy loss of electronic tags on belts and the easy damage after embedding electronic tags with rigid substrates, which affect the overall appearance and texture of the belts. Therefore, this invention proposes a belt with built-in flexible electronic tags.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] Design a belt with a built-in flexible electronic tag, including a belt body and an electronic tag. The belt body has an installation groove, a toothed plate is embedded in the installation groove, and teeth are provided on the toothed plate. The electronic tag is disposed between the toothed plate and the installation groove. The belt body has a buckle that cooperates with the toothed plate and the teeth.

[0007] The electronic tag includes a flexible substrate and a chip, with the chip electrically connected to the flexible substrate.

[0008] Furthermore, an antenna is disposed on the flexible substrate, and the antenna is electrically connected to the chip.

[0009] Furthermore, the chip is covered with a protective layer, which is connected to the flexible substrate or the antenna.

[0010] Furthermore, the antenna has a flexible sheet structure with circuitry and pads, and the chip is soldered onto the pads.

[0011] Furthermore, an adhesive layer is provided on the side of the flexible substrate away from the chip, and the flexible substrate is bonded to the toothed plate or the mounting groove through the adhesive layer.

[0012] Furthermore, an adhesive layer is provided between the antenna and the flexible substrate, and the adhesive layer is a polyester resin adhesive layer.

[0013] Furthermore, the flexible substrate is a PET flexible substrate or a PI flexible substrate, and the protective layer is a protective layer such as silicone, epoxy resin, or UV adhesive.

[0014] Furthermore, the surface of the antenna is provided with an insulating paint layer.

[0015] The belt with a built-in flexible electronic tag proposed in this utility model has the following advantages:

[0016] In this utility model, by setting an electronic tag in the body of the belt, the substrate of the electronic tag is a flexible substrate with good flexibility and bendability, which reduces the volume of the electronic tag and will not be damaged when the belt bends. At the same time, it avoids and solves the problem of easy loss of electronic tags, thereby reducing the difficulty of return tracking and after-sales maintenance.

[0017] Secondly, in this invention, by covering the chip with a protective layer, the chip is protected, thereby improving the durability of the electronic tag. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-4 A belt with a built-in flexible electronic tag includes a belt body 1 and an electronic tag 2. The belt body 1 has an installation groove, and a toothed plate 3 is embedded in the installation groove. The toothed plate 3 is provided with teeth. The electronic tag 2 is disposed between the toothed plate 3 and the installation groove. The belt body 1 is provided with a buckle 4 that cooperates with the toothed plate 3 and the teeth.

[0025] The electronic tag 2 includes a flexible substrate 21 and a chip 22, which is electrically connected to the flexible substrate 21.

[0026] In this utility model, by setting an electronic tag 2 inside the belt body 1, the substrate of the electronic tag 2 is a flexible substrate 21, which has good flexibility and bendability, reducing the volume of the electronic tag, and preventing it from being damaged when the belt bends. At the same time, it avoids and solves the problem of the electronic tag being easily lost, thereby reducing the difficulty of return tracking and after-sales maintenance.

[0027] Furthermore, in this embodiment, an antenna 23 is disposed on the flexible substrate 21. The antenna 23 is electrically connected to the chip 22. The antenna 23 is made of metal materials such as silver paste, copper foil or aluminum foil, and is made into circuits and pads of different sizes and shapes through processes such as printing, electroplating or etching.

[0028] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a protective layer 24 is covered on the chip 22. The protective layer 24 is connected to the flexible substrate 21 or the antenna 23. The protective layer 24 protects the chip 22 and prevents the chip 22 from being worn due to friction and thus failing to work properly.

[0029] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the antenna 23 is a flexible sheet structure with circuits and pads. The chip 22 is soldered onto the pads. The chip 22 is an RFID UHF tag chip. Electrical connections are formed on the pads of the antenna layer by means of ACP flip packaging, wire bonding or soldering. The soldering method includes one of SMT surface mount, laser soldering, ultrasonic soldering, high temperature soldering or arc soldering.

[0030] Furthermore, in this embodiment, an adhesive layer 25 is provided on the side of the flexible substrate 21 away from the chip 22. The flexible substrate 21 is bonded to the toothed plate 3 or the mounting groove through the adhesive layer 25. The adhesive layer 25 is made of a substrate such as coated paper or cotton paper, and the flexible substrate is bonded to the glassine paper by means of self-adhesive, acrylic adhesive, etc.

[0031] In detail, in this embodiment, an adhesive layer is provided between the antenna 23 and the flexible substrate 21. The adhesive layer is a polyurethane emulsion or polyester resin adhesive layer, which is used to bond the antenna to the flexible substrate 21.

[0032] More specifically, in this embodiment, the flexible substrate 21 is a PET flexible substrate or a PI flexible substrate, and the protective layer 24 is a protective layer such as silicone, epoxy resin, or UV adhesive, preferably an epoxy resin protective layer.

[0033] In some embodiments, the surface of the antenna 23 is provided with an insulating paint layer or a reinforcing layer and a solder resist layer to protect the circuit on the antenna 23. The circuit of the antenna 23 can adjust the resonant frequency by changing different shapes and sizes to achieve impedance matching with the chip 22.

[0034] Working method: During operation, the chip 22 works in conjunction with the antenna 23 and the flexible substrate 21 to facilitate the use of the belt for product management, anti-counterfeiting and traceability based on the radio frequency identification system. The chip 22 is protected by the protective layer 24 to prevent the chip 22 from being worn due to friction and failing to work properly. When assembling the belt body 1, the belt body 1 is first slotted to form an installation groove. Then, the flexible substrate 21 is bonded to the toothed plate 3 or the installation groove through the adhesive layer 25. After that, the toothed plate 3 is installed, and finally the buckle 4 is installed to complete the belt assembly.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
