Description

本発明は、固体識別情報が格納されたＩＣチップとアンテナが接続されて一体となったインレットを有するＲＦＩＤタグ、特にタグ本体がゴム製のＲＦＩＤタグおよびその製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to an RFID tag having an inlet in which an IC chip storing solid identification information and an antenna are connected and integrated, particularly, an RFID tag whose tag body is made of rubber, and a method for manufacturing the RFID tag.

従来、電子タグは固体識別システムとして広く普及し、特に無線方式のＩＣタグ（電子タグ）であるＲＦＩＤ（Radio Frequency Identification）タグは、種々の物品に取り付けて物品管理に広く利用されている。ＲＦＩＤタグは、ＩＣチップとそれに電気的に接続したアンテナからなるインレットを一般に樹脂内に封止して成形したものが知られている。ＲＦＩＤタグの製造方法として、インレットを熱可塑性樹脂板で挟み、それを上下の熱板で挟み所定の加熱条件下で加圧することにより、熱可塑性樹脂板を溶融させてインレットと一体化させる方法（例えば、特許文献１参照）や、同じ組成の熱可塑性エストラマーからなる下部基材と上部基材との間にインレットを挟んで重ねた状態で射出成形金型内に配置して、上記熱可塑性エストラマーと同じ組成のエストラマーをその外周部に射出して一体化させる方法（特許文献２参照）等が提案されている。しかしながら、樹脂被覆ＲＦＩＤタグの場合は、玄関マット等屋外の過酷な条件下で使用され、かつ繰り返し洗浄・殺菌される物品に装着するＲＦＩＤタグとして、耐薬品性、耐候性、耐衝撃性等に劣り、そのままの状態で物品に装着することは耐用性に欠けるため、例えば被取付物品が玄関マット等で基材がゴム製品である場合、ゴム製品にＲＦＩＤタグが嵌合する凹部を形成してＲＦＩＤタグを未加硫ゴム生地で挟んで加熱・加圧して加硫接着を行なう方法が提案されている（特許文献３）。この場合、ＲＦＩＤタグ自体は熱可塑性樹脂で成形するため、耐久性を持たせるために、被装着物品のゴム基材内に埋め込むという手段を採用しなければならず、物品への取付作業が煩雑であり、簡易に取り付けることができないという欠点がある。一方、加硫ゴムシート間にインレットを挟んで一体化されたＲＦＩＤタグも提案されている。その場合、加硫ゴムシート同士は、熱圧着が困難なために、通常接着剤が使われている。   Conventionally, an electronic tag has been widely used as a solid identification system. In particular, an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tag, which is a wireless IC tag (electronic tag), is attached to various articles and widely used for article management. An RFID tag is generally formed by sealing an inlet made of an IC chip and an antenna electrically connected to the IC chip in a resin. As a method of manufacturing an RFID tag, a method in which an inlet is sandwiched between thermoplastic resin plates, is sandwiched between upper and lower thermal plates, and is pressurized under predetermined heating conditions, whereby the thermoplastic resin plate is melted and integrated with the inlet ( For example, refer to Patent Document 1) or the thermoplastic elastomer described above, which is placed in an injection mold with an inlet sandwiched between a lower base material and an upper base material made of a thermoplastic elastomer having the same composition. And a method of injecting an elastomer having the same composition into the outer peripheral portion and integrating the same (see Patent Document 2). However, in the case of resin-coated RFID tags, as RFID tags that are used in harsh outdoor conditions such as doormats, and are repeatedly washed and sterilized, the chemical resistance, weather resistance, impact resistance, etc. Since it is inferior and it is not durable to attach to the article as it is, for example, when the article to be attached is a door mat or the like and the base material is a rubber product, a recess for fitting the RFID tag to the rubber product is formed. A method has been proposed in which an RFID tag is sandwiched between unvulcanized rubber fabrics and heated and pressurized to perform vulcanization adhesion (Patent Document 3). In this case, since the RFID tag itself is molded from a thermoplastic resin, in order to provide durability, means for embedding it in the rubber base material of the article to be attached must be employed, and the mounting work on the article is complicated. There is a drawback that it cannot be easily attached. On the other hand, an RFID tag integrated with an inlet sandwiched between vulcanized rubber sheets has also been proposed. In that case, an adhesive is usually used because vulcanized rubber sheets are difficult to thermocompress.

一方、自動車のタイヤに装着される非接触型ＲＦＩＤタグを、タイヤを構成する未加硫ゴムと同質の未加硫ゴムで被覆したタイヤ取付用ＲＦＩＤタグも提供されている（特許文献４）。その場合、予めプラスチックシート（ラベル）上にＩＣチップとコイルを配置して形成したＩＣタグ本体を、実装側の面に未加硫のゴム部材で形成した保護シートを積層し、タイヤ取付用ＩＣタグを被着材であるタイヤのインナーライナに接着し、タイヤを加硫することによって、前記保護シートが加硫されて、ＩＣタグ本体がタイヤと保護シートで囲繞されて完全に密閉されるようにしている。   On the other hand, there is also provided a tire mounting RFID tag in which a non-contact type RFID tag attached to a tire of an automobile is covered with an unvulcanized rubber of the same quality as the unvulcanized rubber constituting the tire (Patent Document 4). In that case, an IC tag main body formed by placing an IC chip and a coil on a plastic sheet (label) in advance, and a protective sheet formed of an unvulcanized rubber member on the mounting side surface are laminated to form a tire mounting IC. By adhering the tag to the inner liner of the tire as the adherend and vulcanizing the tire, the protective sheet is vulcanized, and the IC tag body is surrounded by the tire and the protective sheet so as to be completely sealed. I have to.

さらに、ゴム弾性体に市販のＩＣチップ又はセンサー及びＩＣチップ及び関係回路を含むマイクロシステム（ＩＳＭ）をゴムに埋め込むために、第１層の未加硫ゴムの上に所定のＩＳＭが収納できる空間を刻印し、この中に加硫ゴムチップとＩＳＭをいれ、その上に第２層の未加硫ゴムを載せ、金型で加温、加圧成形する方法も提案されている（特許文献５）。   Furthermore, in order to embed a commercially available IC chip or a sensor and an IC chip and a related system (ISM) in the rubber elastic body in the rubber, a space in which a predetermined ISM can be stored on the unvulcanized rubber of the first layer. There is also proposed a method in which a vulcanized rubber chip and an ISM are placed therein, a second layer of unvulcanized rubber is placed thereon, and the mold is heated and pressure-molded (Patent Document 5). .

上記のように加硫ゴムシート同士を接着剤で接着した場合、長期の繰り返し使用等で接着剤に使用される揮発成分が製品や人体に悪影響を与える場合があるという問題点がある。一方、接着剤を使用せずに未加硫ゴム内にインレットを挿入してゴム製のタグを成形する場合、未加硫ゴムはベタベタして取り扱いにくく不安定であり、未加硫ゴム同士の間にインレットを挟み込んで成形すると、両方の未加硫ゴムが不安定で加硫成形中にインレットが動き安定して所定位置に保持して成形することが困難であり、タグ本体内でのインレットの位置にバラツキが生じ均一な製品が得にくいという問題点がある。そのため、従来ＩＣタグは一般にタグ本体を合成樹脂で成形し、過酷な環境下に曝される物品への装着は上記のようにその物品内に埋め込むことによってＩＣタグを保護しているのが現状であり、その場合、ＩＣタグ装着作業が複雑であるという問題点がある。さらに、ＲＦＩＤタグは被装着物品へ装着するのに、通信不良を生じさせないためには物品の共通な位置に安定して装着する必要があるが、ＲＦＩＤタグを正確な位置に動かないように安定して装着するのに煩雑な作業を必要とする等の問題があった。   When the vulcanized rubber sheets are bonded to each other with an adhesive as described above, there is a problem in that volatile components used in the adhesive may adversely affect the product or the human body due to repeated use over a long period of time. On the other hand, when molding a rubber tag by inserting an inlet into the unvulcanized rubber without using an adhesive, the unvulcanized rubber is solid and difficult to handle and unstable. If an inlet is sandwiched between the two parts, both unvulcanized rubbers are unstable and the inlet moves and is stable during vulcanization molding. There is a problem that a uniform product is difficult to be obtained due to variations in the position of. Therefore, the conventional IC tag generally protects the IC tag by molding the tag body with a synthetic resin and embedding it in an article exposed to a harsh environment as described above. In this case, there is a problem that the IC tag mounting work is complicated. In addition, when RFID tags are attached to articles to be attached, it is necessary to stably attach the RFID tag to a common position in order to prevent poor communication. However, the RFID tag is stable so as not to move to an accurate position. Thus, there are problems such as requiring complicated work for mounting.

そこで、本発明は上記実情に鑑み創案されたものであって、接着剤を使用せずに、インレットを所定位置に確実に保持することができ、且つ容易に製造することができ、耐久性があり、しかも被装着物に安定して簡単に装着することができるゴム製のＲＦＩＤタグ及びその製造方法を提供することを目的とする。   Therefore, the present invention has been devised in view of the above circumstances, and without using an adhesive, the inlet can be reliably held in a predetermined position, can be easily manufactured, and has durability. In addition, it is an object of the present invention to provide a rubber RFID tag that can be stably and easily attached to an attachment, and a method for manufacturing the same.

上記課題を解決する本発明のゴム製ＲＦＩＤタグは、ＩＣチップとそれに接続したアンテナからなるインレットをゴム内に包含させて加硫して一体成形させてなるゴム製ＲＦＩＤタグであって、前記インレットと該インレットを覆うタグ本体からなり、該タグ本体に前記インレットと接触しない位置に貫通穴が形成されていることを特徴とするものである。   The rubber RFID tag of the present invention that solves the above-mentioned problems is a rubber RFID tag that is formed by including an inlet made of an IC chip and an antenna connected to the IC chip and vulcanizing and integrally molding the inlet. And a tag main body that covers the inlet, and a through hole is formed in the tag main body at a position that does not contact the inlet.

前記タグ本体は、加硫ゴムと加硫剤が添加された未加硫ゴムでＩＣチップとそれに接続したアンテナからなるインレットを挟んで一体成形して形成したものであり、それによりインレットをゴム製タグ本体内に位置ずれすることなく正確な位置に内在したゴム製ＲＦＩＤタグが得られる。本発明の前記ゴム製ＲＦＩＤタグは中央部に穴が形成されてなるドーナツ状円板を呈して形成することができ、それにより成形時のインレットの位置ずれ防止と、得られたＲＦＩＤタグの装着物品へ位置ずれすることなく装着できる易装着性とを確保している。   The tag body is formed by integrally molding an vulcanized rubber and an unvulcanized rubber to which a vulcanizing agent is added with an IC chip and an inlet made of an antenna connected thereto, and the inlet is made of rubber. It is possible to obtain a rubber RFID tag that is present in an accurate position without being displaced in the tag body. The rubber RFID tag of the present invention can be formed by presenting a donut-shaped disk having a hole formed in the center, thereby preventing the displacement of the inlet during molding and mounting of the obtained RFID tag Easy mounting that can be mounted on an article without shifting its position is ensured.

また、上記課題を解決する本発明のゴム製ＲＦＩＤタグの製造方法は、請求項１に記載のゴム製ＲＦＩＤタグを製造するゴム製ＲＦＩＤタグの製造方法であって、下型に加硫ゴムシートを挿入する加硫ゴムシート挿入工程、該加硫ゴムシートの上にＩＣチップとそれに接続したアンテナからなるインレットを載置するインレット載置工程、前記インレットの上方に加硫剤が添加された未加硫ゴムを挿入し、前記加硫ゴムシートと前記未加硫ゴム間に前記インレットを内在させて前記未加硫ゴムを加硫させ、前記加硫ゴムシートに熱溶着させて一体成形する加硫工程からなり、前記下型に少なくともタグ本体の厚さと同等以上の高さを有する位置決めピンが突出形成され、且つ前記加硫ゴムシートに前記位置決めピンに嵌合する位置決めピン嵌合孔が形成され、前記位置決めピンに前記位置決めピン嵌合孔を嵌合することにより、前記加硫ゴムシート上面から前記位置決めピンを突出させて、タグ本体に貫通穴を形成してなることを特徴とするものである。   A method for manufacturing a rubber RFID tag according to the present invention that solves the above-described problem is a method for manufacturing a rubber RFID tag according to claim 1, wherein the rubber RFID tag is a vulcanized rubber sheet in a lower mold. A vulcanized rubber sheet insertion step, an inlet placement step of placing an IC chip and an inlet connected to the antenna on the vulcanized rubber sheet, and a vulcanizing agent added above the inlet. A vulcanized rubber is inserted, the inlet is interposed between the vulcanized rubber sheet and the unvulcanized rubber, the unvulcanized rubber is vulcanized, and heat-welded to the vulcanized rubber sheet is integrally molded. A positioning pin fitted to the vulcanized rubber sheet and having a height that is at least equal to or greater than the thickness of the tag body. A hole is formed, and the positioning pin is projected from the upper surface of the vulcanized rubber sheet by fitting the positioning pin fitting hole to the positioning pin, thereby forming a through hole in the tag body. It is what.

前記加硫工程は、未加硫ゴム塊を前記インレットの上方に挿入して上型により加熱加圧して前記インレットを内在させて前記加硫ゴムシート、インレット及び前記未加硫ゴムを一体化して成形するか、又は未加硫溶融ゴムを前記インレットの上方に射出して前記インレットを内在させて前記加硫ゴムシート、インレット及び前記未加硫ゴムを一体化して成形するか何れかの工程を採用できる。   In the vulcanization step, an unvulcanized rubber lump is inserted above the inlet, and heated and pressed by an upper mold so that the inlet is contained, and the vulcanized rubber sheet, the inlet and the unvulcanized rubber are integrated. Either molding or injecting an unvulcanized molten rubber above the inlet to inject the inlet and integrally molding the vulcanized rubber sheet, the inlet and the unvulcanized rubber Can be adopted.

本願の請求項１及び請求項４の発明によれば、接着剤を用いずにインレットを加硫ゴムと未加硫ゴムの組合せからなるゴム製外装体内の所定位置に位置ずれすることなく一体化でき、均質で、耐熱性、耐薬品性、柔軟性、耐衝撃性など優れた物性を有し、しかも接着剤を使用しないので揮発成分が発生することなく、人体や製品に悪影響がないＲＦＩＤタグを簡単に得ることができる。そして、ＲＦＩＤタグ本体が完全にゴム体で構成され、インレットはその内部に完全に包含されているので、玄関マット等過酷な使用条件でしかも洗浄等を繰り返す被装着体にも内部に埋め込む必要もなく、簡単に取り付けすることができる。しかも本発明のＲＦＩＤタグは、タグ本体に前記インレットと接触しない位置に貫通穴が形成されているので、インレットが位置ずれすることなく品質が良好で、且つ前記貫通穴を利用して被装着物に安定して簡単に取り付けることができる。   According to the invention of claim 1 and claim 4 of the present application, the inlet is integrated without being displaced to a predetermined position in the rubber outer body made of a combination of vulcanized rubber and unvulcanized rubber without using an adhesive. RFID tags that are homogeneous, have excellent physical properties such as heat resistance, chemical resistance, flexibility, and impact resistance, and do not use adhesives, so they do not generate volatile components and do not adversely affect human bodies or products Can be easily obtained. Since the RFID tag main body is completely composed of a rubber body and the inlet is completely contained in the inside of the RFID tag, it is necessary to embed it in a body to be attached that repeats washing and the like under severe use conditions such as an entrance mat. And can be easily installed. In addition, since the RFID tag of the present invention has a through hole formed in the tag main body at a position where it does not come into contact with the inlet, the quality of the inlet does not shift and the quality is good. It can be attached stably and easily.

また、請求項４によれば、下型に位置決めピンが突出形成され、且つ前記加硫ゴムシートに前記位置決めピンに嵌合する位置決めピン嵌合孔が形成されているので、加硫ゴムシートを確実に所定位置に位置決めして成形中に位置ずれすることなく成形でき、且つインレットがタグ本体からはみ出すことなく成形できる。さらに、請求項２〜６の発明によれば、加硫ゴムシートと未加硫ゴムとの組合せのため、加硫ゴムシートを下型に簡単にセットできて取り扱いが容易であり、且つ加硫ゴムシートの厚さを調整することによって、インレットの高さ方向位置を容易に調整することができ、被装着物の通信距離に応じてインレットのタグ表面との距離を最適位置にセットすることができる。   According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, since the positioning pin protrudes from the lower mold and the positioning pin fitting hole that fits the positioning pin is formed in the vulcanized rubber sheet, the vulcanized rubber sheet is The molding can be performed without being displaced during molding by reliably positioning at a predetermined position, and the inlet can be molded without protruding from the tag body.

以下、図面を基に本発明に係るＲＦＩＤタグ及びその製造方法の実施形態を詳細に説明する。
図１は、本発明の実施形態に係るＲＦＩＤタグ１の模式図であり、ゴム製の外装体を構成するタグ本体２の内部にインレット４が埋設されて構成されている。インレット４は、アンテナ５にＩＣチップ６が電気的に接続して形成されている。ＩＣチップは、従来のＲＦＩＤタグと同様に目的に応じた回路パターンが形成され、発信・受信・記憶・演算回路等が適宜構成されている。 Hereinafter, an embodiment of an RFID tag and a manufacturing method thereof according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a schematic view of an RFID tag 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is configured by an inlet 4 being embedded in a tag body 2 constituting a rubber exterior body. The inlet 4 is formed by connecting an IC chip 6 to an antenna 5 electrically. The IC chip is formed with a circuit pattern according to the purpose as in the case of the conventional RFID tag, and a transmission / reception / storage / arithmetic circuit is appropriately configured.

本実施形態では、アンテナは図示のように円環状に形成され、その大きさは用途に応じて所定の通信距離を確保できるように使用する電波の周波数に応じて決定される。また、本発明のＲＦＩＤタグ１その中央部に貫通穴３が形成されて、全体としてドーナツ円板状に形成されている。貫通穴３は、後述するようにＲＦＩＤタグ製造時の加硫ゴムシートの位置決め用穴とし、また加硫時のインレットの過剰な動きを規制する役割を果たすと共に、該ＲＦＩＤタグを被装着物品に装着する際の装着用穴として有効である。例えば、被装着物品の表面にＲＦＩＤタグを取付けカバーで覆って取り付ける場合、該貫通穴を介して取付けカバーを被装着物品表面にＲＦＩＤタグの中心位置で固着できるので、取り付けられたＲＦＩＤタグは取付け後容易に移動しないように取り付けることができると共に、簡単に取り付けることができる。   In the present embodiment, the antenna is formed in an annular shape as shown in the figure, and the size thereof is determined according to the frequency of the radio wave used so as to ensure a predetermined communication distance according to the application. Moreover, the through-hole 3 is formed in the center part of the RFID tag 1 of the present invention, and the whole is formed in a donut disk shape. As will be described later, the through hole 3 serves as a positioning hole for the vulcanized rubber sheet at the time of manufacturing the RFID tag, and serves to regulate excessive movement of the inlet at the time of vulcanization. It is effective as a mounting hole for mounting. For example, when an RFID tag is attached to the surface of an article to be attached with an attachment cover, the attachment cover can be fixed to the surface of the article to be attached at the center of the RFID tag through the through hole. It can be attached so that it does not easily move later, and can be attached easily.

一方、ゴム製のタグ本体２は、下部ゴム層を構成する加硫ゴムシート２−１上にインレット４を配置し、その上から加硫剤を添加した未加硫ゴム塊９（図３）をヒートプレスにより加熱加圧（加硫）して加硫ゴムシート上に熱溶着すると共に上部ゴム層２−２を形成して加硫ゴムシート２−１と一体化される。加硫ゴムシート２−１の厚さを選択することにより、タグ内のインレットの高さ方向の位置をコントロールでき、通信距離を確保できる。また、未加硫ゴムの量によりタグ全体の厚さをコントロールすることができる。   On the other hand, the rubber tag body 2 has an inlet 4 disposed on the vulcanized rubber sheet 2-1 constituting the lower rubber layer, and an unvulcanized rubber lump 9 to which a vulcanizing agent is added (FIG. 3). Is heat-pressed (vulcanized) by heat press and thermally welded onto the vulcanized rubber sheet, and the upper rubber layer 2-2 is formed and integrated with the vulcanized rubber sheet 2-1. By selecting the thickness of the vulcanized rubber sheet 2-1, the position of the inlet in the height direction in the tag can be controlled, and the communication distance can be secured. Further, the thickness of the entire tag can be controlled by the amount of unvulcanized rubber.

加硫ゴムシート２−１は、市販の適宜の加硫ゴムシートから所定の形状（本実施形態では円板）に型抜きして形成され、図３に展開して示すように、中央部に後述する下型の中央部に突出形成された位置決めピン１３に嵌合する位置決めピン嵌合孔７が軸方向に貫通して形成されている。該位置決めピン嵌合孔７は、完成後のタグ貫通穴３の一部となる。なお、本実施形態では加硫ゴムシートは、中央部に位置決めピンが嵌合する位置決めピン嵌合孔７が形成されている円板状に形成され、該嵌合孔７によって、後述するように加硫ゴムシートは下型内に正確に位置決めでき加硫中も加硫ゴムシートが動かないように固定され、また、インレットの動きも制限されるので、加硫時にインレットが位置ずれを起こすことを簡単に且つ十分防止できる。しかしながら、インレットを加硫ゴムシート上面により正確に位置決めしてセットするために、必要に応じて例えば図６に示すように、加硫ゴムシートの上面に座ぐり凹部８を形成してもよい。加硫ゴムシート上面にインレット４が着座する座ぐり凹部８を形成しておくことによって、加硫に際してインレットを正確に位置決めでき、且つ加熱加圧中（加硫中）にインレットが位置ずれするのを防止し、より正確な位置に保持した状態でタグの成形が可能となる。   The vulcanized rubber sheet 2-1 is formed by die-cutting from a commercially available appropriate vulcanized rubber sheet into a predetermined shape (in this embodiment, a disc), and is developed at the center as shown in FIG. A positioning pin fitting hole 7 is formed so as to penetrate in the axial direction to be fitted to a positioning pin 13 that is formed to protrude in a center portion of a lower mold described later. The positioning pin fitting hole 7 becomes a part of the completed tag through hole 3. In this embodiment, the vulcanized rubber sheet is formed in a disk shape in which a positioning pin fitting hole 7 into which a positioning pin is fitted is formed at the center, and the fitting hole 7 will be described later. The vulcanized rubber sheet can be accurately positioned in the lower mold and fixed so that the vulcanized rubber sheet does not move during vulcanization, and the movement of the inlet is also restricted, so that the inlet will be displaced during vulcanization. Can be easily and sufficiently prevented. However, in order to accurately position and set the inlet on the upper surface of the vulcanized rubber sheet, a counterbored recess 8 may be formed on the upper surface of the vulcanized rubber sheet as necessary, for example, as shown in FIG. By forming the counterbore recess 8 on which the inlet 4 is seated on the upper surface of the vulcanized rubber sheet, the inlet can be accurately positioned during vulcanization, and the inlet is displaced during heating and pressurization (during vulcanization). Thus, the tag can be molded while being held at a more accurate position.

加硫ゴム及び未加硫ゴムの材質は、タグの使用環境、被装着物に応じて選択し、例えば、ＳＢＲ（スチレン−ブタジエンゴム）、ＮＢＲ（アクリロニトリル−ブタジエンゴム）、ＢＲ（ブタジエンゴム）、シリコーンゴム、エチレンプロピレンゴム、フッ素ゴム等の合成ゴムや天然ゴムが採用できる。例えば、比較的温度の高い環境で使用するタグの場合は、シリコーンゴムやフッ素ゴムを採用する。さらに、柔軟で伸びないことが要求されるタグについては、繊維補強入り加硫ゴムシートを使用することで、変形を抑制することができる。以上のように成形されたＲＦＩＤタグは、完全にインレットがゴムの外装体（タグ本体）内に位置しているので、悪環境下で使用する被装着物の表面に単に固定するだけで使用可能であり、被装着物への装着が容易である。   The material of the vulcanized rubber and the unvulcanized rubber is selected according to the usage environment of the tag and the object to be attached. For example, SBR (styrene-butadiene rubber), NBR (acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber), BR (butadiene rubber), Synthetic rubber such as silicone rubber, ethylene propylene rubber, and fluorine rubber, and natural rubber can be used. For example, in the case of a tag used in a relatively high temperature environment, silicone rubber or fluororubber is employed. Further, for a tag that is required to be flexible and not stretched, deformation can be suppressed by using a vulcanized rubber sheet with fiber reinforcement. The RFID tag molded as described above can be used simply by fixing it to the surface of the object to be used in adverse environments because the inlet is completely located inside the rubber outer package (tag body). Therefore, it is easy to mount on the mounted object.

次に、以上のような構成を有するＲＦＩＤタグの製造方法の実施形態を図３及び図４により説明する。図３は製造工程の展開を示す模式図であり、図４は製造工程を示すブロック線図である。
金型は所定の温度・圧力で加熱・加圧できる一対の下型１０と上型１１とからなり、下型１０には加硫ゴムシートの直径よりも僅かに大きい直径を有し且つ成形後のＲＦＩＤタグ高さに相当する深さを有する凹型１２が形成されていると共に、その中央部に所定の直径を有する位置決めピン１３が形成されている。下型に凹型１２を形成することによって、加硫時に未加硫ゴムが該凹型内で良好に成形されて好ましいが、必ずしも凹型を設けなくても加硫時位置決めピン１３により、加硫ゴムシートの動きが規制され、且つインレットの動きもある程度規制されるので、未加硫ゴムの成形は上型による加熱押圧のみでも可能であり、必ずしも凹型を設けなくても良い。当該金型を用いて、ＲＦＩＤタグは次のような工程により製造される。 Next, an embodiment of an RFID tag manufacturing method having the above configuration will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing the development of the manufacturing process, and FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing the manufacturing process.
The mold includes a pair of a lower mold 10 and an upper mold 11 that can be heated and pressurized at a predetermined temperature and pressure. The lower mold 10 has a diameter slightly larger than the diameter of the vulcanized rubber sheet, and after molding. A concave mold 12 having a depth corresponding to the RFID tag height is formed, and a positioning pin 13 having a predetermined diameter is formed at the center thereof. By forming the concave mold 12 in the lower mold, it is preferable that the unvulcanized rubber is molded well in the concave mold at the time of vulcanization, but the vulcanized rubber sheet is not necessarily provided by the positioning pin 13 at the time of vulcanization without providing the concave mold. Therefore, the unvulcanized rubber can be molded only by heating and pressing with the upper mold, and the concave mold need not necessarily be provided. The RFID tag is manufactured by the following process using the mold.

まず、下型１０の凹型１２に加硫ゴムシート２−１を位置決めピン嵌合孔７を位置決めピン１３に嵌合して加硫ゴムシート２−１を下型にセットする（加硫ゴムシートセット工程）。次いで、該加硫ゴムシート上にインレット４をセットする（インレットセット工程）。その際、インレット４は位置決めピン１３に嵌合することによって、半径方向への移動は該位置決めピンとの隙間分に制限されて位置決めされるので、加硫中にインレットの動きがあっても、インレットが大きな偏心又はゴムからはみ出すなどの不良を生じることがない。従って、接着剤を使用しなくても加硫中にアンテナ位置がずれることなく良好な位置に保持することができる。次いで、その上部に加硫剤が添加された未加硫ゴム塊９を載せてセットする（未加硫ゴムセット工程）。   First, the vulcanized rubber sheet 2-1 is fitted to the concave mold 12 of the lower mold 10 and the positioning pin fitting hole 7 is fitted to the positioning pin 13 to set the vulcanized rubber sheet 2-1 on the lower mold (vulcanized rubber sheet). Setting process). Next, the inlet 4 is set on the vulcanized rubber sheet (inlet setting step). At that time, the inlet 4 is fitted to the positioning pin 13 so that the movement in the radial direction is limited by the gap with the positioning pin, so that the inlet 4 moves even if the inlet moves during vulcanization. Does not cause defects such as large eccentricity or sticking out of rubber. Therefore, even without using an adhesive, the antenna can be held in a good position without being displaced during vulcanization. Next, the unvulcanized rubber lump 9 to which the vulcanizing agent is added is placed and set on the upper part (unvulcanized rubber setting step).

その状態で上型１１及び／又は下型１０を相対的に移動させて型閉めをし（型閉め工程）、所定の温度に加熱された上型１１で所定圧力で一定時間保持することによって、図５に示すように、加硫剤が添加された未加硫ゴム塊９が溶融して凹型１２内の加硫ゴムシート上でインレットを挟んで板状に伸びて成形されて加硫が行なわれる（加熱プレス（加硫）工程）。加硫工程は、採用するゴムの材質及び成形するタグの大きさに応じて、加硫時の温度及び圧力を最適条件で選択して行う。例えば、加硫ゴムシートとして外径３０ｍｍ、厚み１ｍｍのＮＢＲシートを採用し、且つ未加硫ゴムとしてＮＢＲ塊を採用して、金型を１８０℃に加温して、未加硫のＮＢＲ塊を圧力１０ＭＰａで略５分間加圧保持することによって、未加硫ゴム塊の加硫が行なわれ、インレットを挟んで加硫ゴムシート上に未加硫ゴムが良好に一体に溶着した外径３０ｍｍ、厚さ２ｍｍのゴム製ＲＦＩＤタグを得ることができた。   In that state, the upper mold 11 and / or the lower mold 10 are relatively moved to close the mold (mold closing process), and the upper mold 11 heated to a predetermined temperature is held at a predetermined pressure for a certain time. As shown in FIG. 5, the unvulcanized rubber lump 9 to which the vulcanizing agent is added melts and is stretched and formed into a plate shape on the vulcanized rubber sheet in the concave mold 12 with the inlet interposed therebetween. (Heat press (vulcanization) step). The vulcanization process is performed by selecting the temperature and pressure during vulcanization under optimum conditions according to the material of the rubber to be used and the size of the tag to be molded. For example, an NBR sheet having an outer diameter of 30 mm and a thickness of 1 mm is used as a vulcanized rubber sheet, an NBR block is used as an unvulcanized rubber, and the mold is heated to 180 ° C. Is held at a pressure of 10 MPa for approximately 5 minutes to vulcanize the unvulcanized rubber lump, and the outer diameter of 30 mm is obtained by welding the unvulcanized rubber well and integrally on the vulcanized rubber sheet across the inlet. A rubber RFID tag having a thickness of 2 mm could be obtained.

一般に未加硫ゴムはベタベタして取り扱いにくく、且つ未加硫ゴム内にインレットを包含させようとすると加硫中にインレットが動き易くゴム内の正確な位置にインレットを内在させることは困難であるが、本発明によれば、加硫ゴムシート２−１と未加硫ゴム塊９との組合せであり、しかも加硫ゴムシートに位置決め用の位置決めピン嵌合孔７が形成されているので、成形中にインレットが動くことなく簡単に成形でき、加硫ゴムシートと未加硫ゴムが一体となる。その際未加硫ゴム塊は、その内部を下型の中央部に突出した位置決めピン１３が貫通して貫通穴３が形成され、加硫ゴムシート上にインレットを挟んだ状態に一体に熱溶着して円板状の上部ゴム層２−２を形成する。所定時間経過後型開きして（型開き工程）、離型する（離型工程）ことによって、インレット４が完全にゴムで被覆された状態の中央部に貫通穴３を有するドーナツ円板状のＲＦＩＤタグ１が得られる。   Generally, unvulcanized rubber is sticky and difficult to handle, and if the inlet is included in the unvulcanized rubber, the inlet is easy to move during vulcanization, and it is difficult to make the inlet in an accurate position in the rubber. However, according to the present invention, it is a combination of the vulcanized rubber sheet 2-1 and the unvulcanized rubber lump 9, and the positioning pin fitting hole 7 for positioning is formed in the vulcanized rubber sheet. The molding can be easily performed without moving the inlet during molding, and the vulcanized rubber sheet and the unvulcanized rubber are integrated. At that time, the unvulcanized rubber lump is integrally heat-sealed in a state in which the positioning pin 13 projecting from the inside of the lower mold penetrates the inside of the unvulcanized rubber lump and the through hole 3 is formed and the inlet is sandwiched between the vulcanized rubber sheets Thus, the disk-shaped upper rubber layer 2-2 is formed. After a predetermined time has elapsed, the mold is opened (mold opening process), and then released (mold release process), so that the inlet 4 has a through-hole 3 in the center part in a state where the inlet 4 is completely covered with rubber. The RFID tag 1 is obtained.

以上の実施形態では、未加硫ゴムとして未加硫ゴム塊を採用して金型内でプレス成形したが、溶融未加硫ゴムを金型内に射出して成形することも可能である。射出成形の場合は、前記実施形態と同様に下型内に加硫ゴムシートをセットしてその上にインレット４を載せて、その上に未加硫ゴムが射出されるように金型内にセットして型閉めを行い、溶融未加硫ゴムを射出して成形を行う。射出成形の場合は、前記プレス成形の場合と比べて成形時間（加硫時間）が略１／１０程度に短縮できる利点がある。   In the above embodiment, an unvulcanized rubber lump is adopted as the unvulcanized rubber and press-molded in the mold, but it is also possible to inject the molten unvulcanized rubber into the mold and mold it. In the case of injection molding, the vulcanized rubber sheet is set in the lower mold and the inlet 4 is placed on the lower mold as in the above embodiment, and the unvulcanized rubber is injected on the vulcanized rubber sheet in the mold. The mold is set and closed, and the molten unvulcanized rubber is injected and molded. In the case of injection molding, there is an advantage that the molding time (vulcanization time) can be shortened to about 1/10 compared with the case of the press molding.

また、上記実施形態のＲＦＩＤタグは、中央部に貫通穴が形成されているが、必ずしも貫通穴は中央部に限らずインレットと接触しない位置であれば、中央とずれた位置に形成することも可能である。そして、貫通穴は必ずしも１個に限らず複数形成することも可能である。その場合、下型にはそれに応じて位置決めピンを複数本突出形成する。貫通穴を複数形成することによって、被装着物品への取り付けもより簡単に且つより安定して取り付けることが可能となる。また、本実施形態では、アンテナを円環状に形成し、且つタグ本体も円盤状に形成して、全体をドーナツ型円板状に形成してあるが、形状はそれに限定されるものでなく、矩形状等任意の形に形成することが可能である。   In addition, the RFID tag of the above embodiment has a through hole formed in the central portion, but the through hole is not necessarily limited to the central portion and may be formed at a position shifted from the center as long as it does not contact the inlet. Is possible. The number of through holes is not limited to one, and a plurality of through holes can be formed. In that case, a plurality of positioning pins are protruded from the lower mold. By forming a plurality of through holes, it is possible to more easily and more stably attach to the article to be attached. Further, in this embodiment, the antenna is formed in an annular shape, and the tag body is also formed in a disk shape, and the whole is formed in a donut disk shape, but the shape is not limited thereto, It can be formed in an arbitrary shape such as a rectangular shape.

本発明によれば、インレットを完全に包囲するタグ本体がゴム製で且つ接着剤を使用しなくてもインレットの位置ずれがない高品質で、しかも悪環境に設置する被装着物にも簡単に装着可能なＲＦＩＤタグを安価に得ることができ、産業上の利用可能性が高い。   According to the present invention, the tag body that completely surrounds the inlet is made of rubber and has high quality without any positional displacement of the inlet without using an adhesive, and can be easily attached to an object to be installed in a bad environment. A wearable RFID tag can be obtained at low cost, and the industrial applicability is high.
