Electronic device, rubber product, and methods for manufacturing the same
First Claim
1. A method for manufacturing an electronic device, the electronic device comprising an RFID inlet which includes an RFID chip and an antenna provided opposite to each other, the RFID chip being electrically connected to the antenna, where the method comprises:
- enclosing the RFID inlet in a base part having a release-agent surface so that surfaces of the RFID inlet oppose portions of the release-agent surface of the base part; and
sandwiching the RFID inlet between the portions of the release-agent surface of the base part, and pressing the portions of the release-agent surface of the base part onto the surfaces of the RFID inlet so that portions of the base part deform to interlock a position of a predetermined portion of the RFID chip with respect to the base part;
wherein extension portions of the base part extend beyond ends of the RFID inlet and have the release-agent surface opposing each other, to form a space therebetween to accommodate stress relief movement of the RFID inlet.

Abstract
The present invention aims to improve the durability of an RFID chip inlet. A module including an RFID chip amounted to an antenna is covered with polyimide film with an adhesive layer to make up an RFID inlet. The outer surface of the RFID inlet is then covered with the surface processed to increase surface lubricity of a base part. When the RFID inlet is for use in a rubber product, it is mounted to a rubber base of the rubber product, the exposed surface of the RFID inlet is covered with an unvulcanized rubber, and the unvulcanized rubber is then pressed and heated causing the RFID inlet to be embedded in the rubber base.

12. An electronic device comprising:
-
an RFID inlet having an antenna and an RFID chip electrically connected to the antenna each disposed on one of main surfaces of the RFID inlet opposite to each other; and a base part having a release surface formed of a release agent, and enclosing the RFID inlet so that surfaces of the RFID inlet are opposite to respective portions of the release surface of the base part, wherein the respective portions of the release surface of the base part have a press-fit on the surfaces of the RFID inlet, so that portions of the base part have deformed to interlock a position of a predetermined portion of the RFID chip with respect to the base part; and wherein extension portions of the base part extend beyond ends of the RFID inlet and have the release surface opposing each other, to form a space therebetween to accommodate stress relief movement of the RFID inlet. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)
