Abstract

A container with an opening provided with a recording medium, which is provided for preventing reading of information on the recording medium from the time of factory shipment to the time of use, and which can be set on an external device by the user without forgetting to enable reading from the recording medium at the time of use, is inexpensively accomplished. The container with an opening provided with a recording medium, from which recorded information is able to be read, includes a seal attached to the recording medium. The seal includes a read-blocking section for blocking reading of the information recorded on the recording medium and an extending portion for sealing the opening of the container.

Claims

1. A container with an opening provided with a recording medium, information recorded on the recording medium being able to be read, the container comprising:

a seal attached to the recording medium, the seal comprising a read-blocking section for blocking reading of the information recorded on the recording medium and an extending portion for sealing the opening of the container.

3. The container as claimed in claim 1, wherein the recording medium is an RFID tag comprising a coil-pattern antenna.

5. The container as claimed in claim 1, wherein the recording medium is an RFID tag comprising a coil-pattern antenna, and the read-blocking section is made of a conductive material and entirely or partially covers the coil-pattern antenna.

7. The container as claimed in claim 1, wherein the recording medium is an RFID tag comprising a coil-pattern antenna, and the read-blocking section is a coil-pattern conductor made of a conductive material and entirely or partially covers the coil-pattern antenna.

9. The container as claimed in claim 1, wherein the recording medium is an RFID tag comprising a coil-pattern antenna, and the read-blocking section is made of a conductive material and forms a short circuit between opposite end portions of the coil-pattern antenna.

2. A container with an opening sealed with a cap and provided with a recording medium, information recorded on the recording medium being able to be read, the container comprising:

a seal attached to the recording medium, the seal comprising a read-blocking section for blocking reading of the information recorded on the recording medium and an extending portion attached to the cap sealing the opening of the container.

4. The container as claimed in claim 2, wherein the recording medium is an RFID tag comprising a coil-pattern antenna.

6. The container as claimed in claim 2, wherein the recording medium is an RFID tag comprising a coil-pattern antenna, and the read-blocking section is made of a conductive material and entirely or partially covers the coil-pattern antenna.

8. The container as claimed in claim 2, wherein the recording medium is an RFID tag comprising a coil-pattern antenna, and the read-blocking section is a coil-pattern conductor made of a conductive material and entirely or partially covers the coil-pattern antenna.

10. The container as claimed in claim 2, wherein the recording medium is an RFID tag comprising a coil-pattern antenna, and the read-blocking section is made of a conductive material and forms a short circuit between opposite end portions of the coil-pattern antenna.
