The fabric layer 3 covers both sides of the antenna layer 2, and the chip 1 is concealed by the fabric layer 3. An adhesive layer 4 is applied between the fabric layer 3 and the antenna layer 2, and the adhesive layer 4 fixes the inner wall of the fabric layer 3 to the surface of the antenna layer 2. The chip 1 is disposed at one end of the antenna layer 2. A fastener 5 and a fixing pin 6 are disposed at the end of the fabric layer 3 away from the antenna for fixing to clothing. The fastener 5 can be sewn onto the clothing, and the fixing pin 6 is fixedly connected to the fabric layer 3. The device 5 has an inner cavity 501, into which a fixing pin 6 can be inserted. The inner cavity 501 contains a spring 7, a retainer 8, a movable frame 9, and a ball bearing 10. The ball bearing 10 is mounted in the movable frame 9 via the retainer 8. The movable frame 9 can slide up and down in the inner cavity 501, and the retainer 8 can also slide up and down in the movable frame 9. The fixing pin 6 has a slot 601. When the fixing pin 6 is inserted into the inner cavity 501, the ball bearing 10 can engage with the slot 601. A pressure plate 11 is provided at the end of the retainer 8 away from the fixing pin 6. The spring 7 is located between the pressure plate 11 and the inner wall of the inner cavity 501. A magnet 12 is provided on the pressure plate 11.
[0021] The engagement between the fixing pin 6 and the retainer 5 securely attaches the electronic tag to the clothing, enabling quick and easy removal and removal.
