Abstract
The present invention winds an antenna wire of a NFC (Near Field Communication) chip and antenna component round inside a hard concave ring, which is then encapsulated in a room temperature-solidifiable resin adhesive. If metal material is used, then a repeater material is disposed between the metal and the NFC chip and antenna component to prevent interference thereto. The present invention thus resolves the frequently seen shortcomings of NFC circuit component failure because of the high temperature when encapsulating, poor waterproofing, and the main body of the ring being too wide. In particular, wearing the NFC ring device on a finger reduces the sensing distance of the NFC device to a minimum, and prevents data from being stolen. If there are abnormalities in receiving and transmitting information, then taking off the ring and placing the circumferential plane of the ring close to the NFC sensor improves the situation.
Description
- (a) Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a NFC (Near Field Communication) ring device, in which an antenna wire of a NFC chip and antenna component is wound round the inside of a concave ring made from a hard material, and is then encapsulated in a room temperature-solidifiable resin adhesive ready to be worn on a finger. Accordingly, the present invention is not only convenient for the user, but also, because of the reduction in the sensing distance of the device to a minimum, the NFC ring device is able to prevent data from being stolen. Moreover, if there are abnormalities in receiving and transmitting information, then the ring can be taken off and the circumferential plane of the ring placed close to the NFC sensor to improve the situation.
- (b) Description of the Prior Art
- NFC (Near Field Communication) is a new trend in communications technology, and is in many ways better than Bluetooth in areas such as: faster data transfer speed, higher security, and lower costs and energy consumption.
- In addition, NFC rings sold in the current market. are normally made from metal, and then modified using plastic rubber, with an NFC circuit and an antenna coil or NFC flexible PCB (Printed Circuit Board) disposed between the plastic rubber and the ring surface, thereby enabling the NFC antenna to penetrate the plastic rubber. A wireless signal can thus be transmitted via a NFC communication mode. However, such NFC rings are inconvenient to use (see
FIG. 6 ) because of their poor waterproofing, and the width of the ring being too large. - Hence, in light of the aforementioned shortcomings, and pursuing the spirit of excellence in research and development, the inventors of the present invention have found a way to improve the aforementioned shortcomings, and thus propose the present invention.
- The primary objective of the present invention lies in providing a narrow and secure NFC (Near Field Communication) ring device, and more particularly a design which provides the narrowest NFC ring currently available. The NFC ring device primarily comprises a ring main body, a NFC chip and antenna component, and a room temperature-solidifiable resin adhesive. With such components the present invention provides the narrowest NFC ring device, and achieves the requirements for practicability, ease of wearing, and an aesthetic design.
- Another objective of the present invention lies in adopting a spiral winding method to dispose the NFC chip and antenna component inside a groove on the outer edge of the ring main body, as well as enabling the diameter and length of an antenna wire of the NFC chip and antenna component to be adjusted according to different external diameters of the ring main body for good near field communication, and narrowing the ring main body to make it suitable for wearing on a finger. Moreover, if there are abnormalities in receiving and transmitting information, then the ring can be taken off and the circumferential plane of the ring directly placed close to the NFC sensor to improve the situation.
- Another objective of the present invention lies in filling the NFC chip and antenna component with an outer layer of room temperature-solidifiable resin adhesive (such as epoxy resin), thus encapsulating the NFC chip and antenna component. The application function of the NFC ring device is thus satisfied, and also achieves the requirements for waterproofing and an aesthetic design.
