RESONANT TAG
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A resonant tag resonating with a radio wave at a predetermined frequency, comprising:
- a polypropylene film having a thickness of approximately 8 μ
m or less;
a first circuit comprising a first metal foil including a coil portion and a plate portion, which comprises a first plate of a capacitor, formed on one side of said polypropylene film;
a second circuit made of a second metal foil including a plate section which comprises a second plate of said capacitor, formed on the other side of said polypropylene film; and
wherein said both circuits comprise an LC circuit by being electrically connected and wherein said metal foils and said polypropylene film are laminated to each other by a styrene-based or olefin-based adhesive.

Abstract
A resonant tag for use with a radio-wave detection system for the prevention of shoplifting or the like which has a coil and capacitor circuit formed on opposite sides of an extremely thin substrate of a biaxially-oriented polypropylene, with one of the capacitor plates formed on one side of the substrate and the coil and other capacitor plate formed on the other side of the substrate, and whereby the circuit can provide the same performance of a conventional resonant tag but using a much smaller size.

6. A method for producing a resonant tag that resonates with a radio wave at a predetermined frequency, comprising:
-
providing a polypropylene film having a thickness of approximately 8 μ
m or less;applying a first adhesive to one side of said polypropylene film; applying a first metal foil to said first adhesive; applying a second adhesive to the other side of said polypropylene film; applying a second metal foil to said second adhesive to form a laminate; and feeding said laminate to an etching process to remove portions of said first and second foils to form an LC circuit. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11)
