Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to anti-counterfeiting technology, and more specifically, to an anti-counterfeiting bottle cap and bottle. Background Technology
[0002] Some existing anti-counterfeiting bottle caps have anti-counterfeiting structures, which include multiple layers of security features to support coded patterns. To prevent the security features from being removed and reused, injection molding is typically used to create multiple layers of different colors on the bottle cap. Laser engraving is then performed on these layers to create the coded pattern. While injection molding prevents the security features from being removed and reused, the complex manufacturing process results in high production costs for the anti-counterfeiting bottle caps. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem this application aims to solve is how to reduce the production cost of anti-counterfeiting bottle caps.
[0004] This utility model embodiment provides an anti-counterfeiting bottle cap, characterized in that it includes: The cover includes a cylindrical body and a cover plate covering the top of the cylindrical body. The cover plate is provided with a light-transmitting opening, and the inner wall of the cylindrical body is provided with a limiting part that is spaced apart from the cover plate. The anti-counterfeiting structure includes multiple anti-counterfeiting plates and a base plate in the shape of a circular plate. The anti-counterfeiting plates are all different colors. The multiple anti-counterfeiting plates and the base plate are all disposed in the cover body and are stacked sequentially along the axial direction of the cylinder. The base plate is disposed on the side of all the anti-counterfeiting plates away from the cover plate. Multiple anti-counterfeiting plates and substrates are sandwiched between the limiting part and the cover plate to fix them to the cover body. The multiple anti-counterfeiting plates are not connected to each other and the anti-counterfeiting plates are not connected to the substrate. All anti-counterfeiting plates are provided with hollow areas to form a first coding pattern that can be observed through the light-transmitting opening.
[0005] In one illustrative embodiment, the limiting portion is a protrusion that extends radially inward from the cylinder.
[0006] In one illustrative embodiment, the protrusion is an annular protrusion.
[0007] In one illustrative embodiment, the number of anti-counterfeiting panels is at least three.
[0008] In one illustrative embodiment, one or more of the following parameters are randomized: The number of perforated areas on each anti-counterfeiting board; The location of the perforated area on each anti-counterfeiting board; The area of the perforated region on each anti-counterfeiting board; The shape of the perforated area on each anti-counterfeiting plate.
[0009] In one illustrative embodiment, the cover is made of metal.
[0010] In one illustrative embodiment, the light-transmitting opening is a circular hole coaxial with the anti-counterfeiting plate, and the first coding pattern is located in the center of the light-transmitting opening.
[0011] In one illustrative embodiment, a second coding pattern is provided on the surface of the substrate facing away from the anti-counterfeiting plate.
[0012] In one illustrative embodiment, the anti-counterfeiting bottle cap further includes a fixing structure connected to the cap body; The fixing structure is disposable and is used to fix the cap to the bottle body.
[0013] This application also proposes a bottle comprising an anti-counterfeiting cap and a bottle body as described above.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: Since adjacent anti-counterfeiting plates are not connected to each other, and the base plate and anti-counterfeiting plates are not connected to each other, and the multi-layered plate structure of the anti-counterfeiting structure is only clamped and fixed by the limiting part on the cylinder and the cover plate, after the anti-counterfeiting structure is removed from the cover, the multiple anti-counterfeiting plates and base plates of the anti-counterfeiting structure become loose, and the original first coding pattern is lost. Even if all the anti-counterfeiting plates and base plates are reassembled, it is almost impossible to reproduce the original first coding pattern, thus making the anti-counterfeiting structure difficult to reuse. This anti-counterfeiting structure formed by stacking multiple anti-counterfeiting plates and base plates has a simple manufacturing process and low manufacturing cost.
[0015] Other features and advantages of this invention will be set forth in the description which follows, and will be apparent in part from the description, or may be learned by practicing the invention. The objects and other advantages of this invention can be realized and obtained by means of the structures particularly pointed out in the description and the drawings. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be arbitrarily combined with each other.
[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 The structure of a bottle 100 according to this embodiment is shown. The bottle 100 includes a bottle body 2 and an anti-counterfeiting cap 1. The anti-counterfeiting cap 1 is fitted onto the mouth of the bottle body 2.
[0020] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown, the anti-counterfeiting bottle cap 1 includes a cap body 11 and an anti-counterfeiting structure 12. The anti-counterfeiting structure 12 is fixed to the cap body 11.
[0021] The cover 11 includes a cylindrical body 111 and a cover plate 112. The cylindrical body 111 is generally cylindrical. The cover plate 112 is a flat plate, which can be circular. The cover plate 112 covers the top of the cylindrical body 111 and seals the top of the cylindrical body 111. A light-transmitting opening 1121 is provided on the cover plate 112. Light can pass through the light-transmitting opening 1121. The light-transmitting opening 1121 can be a through hole, a circular through hole, or a transparent window.
[0022] A limiting portion 1111 is provided on the inner wall of the cylinder 111, and the limiting portion 1111 is located at one end of the cylinder 111 near the cover plate 112. The limiting portion 1111 and the cover plate 112 are spaced apart from each other. There is a gap between the limiting portion 1111 and the cover plate 112. The limiting portion 1111 can be a protrusion, which protrudes from the inner wall of the cylinder 111 in a radially inward direction along the cylinder 111.
[0023] The anti-counterfeiting structure 12 includes an anti-counterfeiting plate 121 and a substrate 122. Multiple anti-counterfeiting plates 121 are provided. Both the anti-counterfeiting plate 121 and the substrate 122 are constructed as circular flat plates. The multiple anti-counterfeiting plates 121 and substrates 122 have the same diameter and thickness. The colors of the multiple anti-counterfeiting plates 121 are different from each other. The colors of the anti-counterfeiting plates 121 and the substrate 122 are also different. Each anti-counterfeiting plate 121 has a perforated area 1211. The perforated area 1211 on the anti-counterfeiting plate 121 is a through hole. The perforated area 1211 on the anti-counterfeiting plate 121 can be one or multiple.
[0024] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown, multiple anti-counterfeiting plates 121 and substrates 122 are disposed within the cover 11 and are stacked sequentially along the axial direction of the cylinder 111. The substrate 122 is disposed on the side of all anti-counterfeiting plates 121 away from the cover 112. The edges of the multiple anti-counterfeiting plates 121 and substrates 122 are sandwiched between the limiting portion 1111 and the cover 112 to fix them to the cover 11. The limiting portion 1111 abuts against the side of the substrate 122 opposite to the anti-counterfeiting plates 121. The anti-counterfeiting plate 121 furthest from the substrate 122 abuts against the cover 112. The multiple anti-counterfeiting plates 121 are not connected to each other. The anti-counterfeiting plates 121 and the substrate 122 are not connected to each other. All anti-counterfeiting plates 121 are provided with a hollow area 1211 to form a first coded pattern 120 that can be observed through the light-transmitting opening 1121.
[0025] The number of anti-counterfeiting panels 121 is unlimited; there can be 3, 4, or 5 panels. Multiple anti-counterfeiting panels 121 are stacked sequentially on the substrate 122. The combination of the cutout areas 1211 of all the anti-counterfeiting panels 121 forms multiple recesses 1210 on the anti-counterfeiting structure 12. A recess 1210 can be formed solely by the cutout area 1211 of the top anti-counterfeiting panel 121 closest to the cover plate 112, or it can be formed by the cutout areas 1211 of multiple layers of anti-counterfeiting panels 121 connected sequentially from the top anti-counterfeiting panel 121. All recesses 1210 are recessed from the side of the anti-counterfeiting structure 12 closest to the cover plate 112 towards the side closest to the substrate 122. All recesses 1210 penetrate the top anti-counterfeiting panel 121. Each recess 1210 can extend from the top anti-counterfeiting panel 121 to any other anti-counterfeiting panel 121 or substrate 122. The bottom surface color of the recess 1210 is the same as the color of the anti-counterfeiting layer or substrate 122 on which the bottom surface of the recess 1210 is located.
[0026] In this way, all the recesses 1210 form a first coding pattern 120, which serves as the anti-counterfeiting mark for the anti-counterfeiting bottle cap 1. The first coding pattern 120 on different anti-counterfeiting bottle caps 1 can be different from each other, and the first coding pattern 120 on each anti-counterfeiting bottle cap 1 is unique.
[0027] Meanwhile, the first coding pattern 120 is composed of multiple recesses 1210. Since the recesses 1210 can extend to any of the anti-counterfeiting plates 121 or substrates 122 below the top anti-counterfeiting plate 121, and the recesses 1210 have various depths, the first coding pattern 120 composed of multiple recesses 1210 is a three-dimensional coding pattern. When viewed from an angle perpendicular to the surface of the anti-counterfeiting plate 121, the three-dimensional first coding pattern 120 can be seen as a two-dimensional coding pattern, while when viewed from an oblique direction, it can be seen that the first coding pattern 120 is recessed in the anti-counterfeiting structure 12.
[0028] Furthermore, the bottom color of the recess 1210 is the same as the color of the anti-counterfeiting plate 121 on which the bottom of the recess 1210 is located. The depth of the recess 1210 can be obtained based on the bottom color of the recess 1210. Therefore, the depth of the recess 1210 can be identified by the bottom color of the recess 1210. The bottom colors of the multiple recesses 1210 that make up the first coding pattern 120 can be different, which can also increase the aesthetics and recognizability.
[0029] Since the depth of the recess 1210 that makes up the first coding pattern 120 can be used as a dimension that can record information, the coding pattern can not only carry data or information like ordinary two-dimensional coding patterns such as QR codes and barcodes, but also use the depth of the recess 1210 as a three-dimensional anti-counterfeiting feature, thus becoming a three-dimensional code with a three-dimensional structure, which can improve the reliability of anti-counterfeiting.
[0030] In particular, since adjacent anti-counterfeiting plates 121 are not connected to each other, and the substrate 122 is not connected to the anti-counterfeiting plate 121, and the multi-layered plate structure of the anti-counterfeiting structure 12 is only clamped and fixed by the limiting part 1111 on the cylinder 111 and the cover plate 112, after the anti-counterfeiting structure 12 is removed from the cover 11, the multiple anti-counterfeiting plates 121 and the substrate 122 of the anti-counterfeiting structure 12 become loose, and the original first coding pattern 120 is lost. Even if all the anti-counterfeiting plates 121 and the substrate 122 are reassembled, the original first coding pattern 120 can hardly be reproduced, making it difficult to reuse the anti-counterfeiting structure 12. This anti-counterfeiting structure 12, which is formed by stacking multiple anti-counterfeiting plates 121 and substrate 122, has a simple manufacturing process and low manufacturing cost.
[0031] In one illustrative embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the limiting part 1111 is an annular protrusion. The limiting part 1111 can be constructed as an annular protrusion.
[0032] The limiting part 1111 is constructed as an annular protrusion. The annular protrusion abuts against the substrate 122. The annular protrusion can support all the edges of the substrate 122, making the substrate 122 more evenly and reasonably stressed. The anti-counterfeiting structure 12 is more difficult to detach from the cover 11, further increasing the difficulty of removing the anti-counterfeiting structure 12.
[0033] In one illustrative embodiment, the number of anti-counterfeiting panels 121 is at least three.
[0034] Having at least three anti-counterfeiting plates 121 allows the first coding pattern 120 to carry a larger amount of anti-counterfeiting information. At the same time, after the anti-counterfeiting structure 12 is removed from the cover 11, it is more difficult to reassemble the large number of anti-counterfeiting plates 121.
[0035] In one illustrative embodiment, one or more of the following parameters are randomized: The number of perforated areas 1211 on each anti-counterfeiting plate 121; The location of the cutout area 1211 on each anti-counterfeiting plate 121; The area of the hollowed-out region 1211 on each anti-counterfeiting plate 121; The hollowed-out area 1211 is the shape of each anti-counterfeiting plate 121.
[0036] The hollowed-out areas 1211 can be created on the anti-counterfeiting plate 121 using a material removal manufacturing method. This material removal manufacturing method can be engraving or cutting. When processing the hollowed-out areas 1211 on each anti-counterfeiting plate 121, the number of hollowed-out areas 1211 on each anti-counterfeiting plate 121, the position, area, and shape of each hollowed-out area 1211 on the anti-counterfeiting plate 121 are all randomly generated. This allows the number of recesses 1210 on the anti-counterfeiting structure 12, the distribution of recesses 1210 on the anti-counterfeiting structure 12, and the recess depth of recesses 1210 to be randomly generated, which can greatly enhance the randomness and personalization of the three-dimensional structure code, increase the difficulty of counterfeiting, and thus improve the reliability of anti-counterfeiting.
[0037] In one illustrative embodiment, the cover 11 is made of metal. The cover 11 may be made by stamping a sheet metal.
[0038] The cover plate 112 is made of metal, resulting in low manufacturing costs. The cover plate 112 is preferably made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy, as it has good ductility and is easy to process.
[0039] In one illustrative embodiment, the light-transmitting opening 1121 on the cover plate 112 can be configured as a circular hole coaxially arranged with the anti-counterfeiting plate 121. The first coded pattern 120 of the anti-counterfeiting structure 12 is located in the center of the light-transmitting opening 1121.
[0040] In this way, the first coding pattern 120 is located in the central area of the light-transmitting opening 1121, making it easier for mobile terminals to identify the first coding pattern 120, and the appearance of the anti-counterfeiting bottle cap 1 is also more aesthetically pleasing.
[0041] In one illustrative embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, a second coding pattern 1220 is also provided on the surface of the substrate 122 facing away from the anti-counterfeiting plate 121. The second coding pattern 1220 can be a barcode pattern or a QR code pattern.
[0042] The types of barcode graphics include, but are not limited to, any one or more of the following: Code 39 (standard code 39), Codabar code, Code 25 (standard code 25), ITF 25 (interleaved code 25), Matrix 25 code, UPC-A code, UPC-E code, EAN-13 code (EAN-13 international commodity barcode), EAN-8 code (EAN-8 international commodity barcode), China Post code (a variant of Matrix 25 code), Code-B code, MSI code, Code 11 code, Code 93 code, ISBN code, ISSN code, Code 128 code (including EAN 128 code), Code 39EMS (code 39 for EMS), etc.
[0043] The types of QR codes include, but are not limited to, any one or more of the following: PDF417 code (mainly used in transportation), QR code (mainly used for commercial purposes), Hanxin code, stacked QR code, matrix QR code, row-arranged QR code, etc.
[0044] In one illustrative embodiment, such as Figure 1 , 3 As shown, the anti-counterfeiting bottle cap 1 also includes a fixing structure 13. The fixing structure 13 can be disposable, meaning it can only be used once and cannot be reused. For example, the fixing structure 13 will be destroyed after one use. The fixing structure 13 connects the cap body 11 and the bottle body 2, so that the cap body 11 is fixed to the bottle body 2. Specifically, the fixing structure 13 is configured to be an integral structure with the cap body 11 and fixed to the bottle body 2. When the anti-counterfeiting bottle cap 1 is to be opened, the connection between the fixing structure 13 and the cap body 11 must be broken, and the fixing structure 13 can be destroyed simultaneously after the connection is broken.
[0045] This prevents the anti-counterfeiting bottle cap 1 from being reused by counterfeit products.
