Information carrier and process for production thereof
First Claim
1. A method for manufacturing a contact-less information recording carrier comprising the steps of:
- overlapping, on a first cover sheet, a first material which comprises synthetic resin fiber and has a first portion (A) and a second portion (B) wherein the first portion (A) has a lower melting point than the second portion (B), mounting, on the first material, an IC chip and a coil electrically connected to the IC chip, the coil being means for contact-less transmitting data and/or electric power, overlapping, on the first material on which the IC chip and the coil have been mounted, a second material which comprises synthetic resin fiber and has a first portion (A′
) and a second portion (B′
), overlapping a second cover sheet on the second material to obtain a lamination, and applying a thickness-wise compression force under heat to the lamination.

Abstract
The present invention provides an information carrier which has flat surfaces, is excellent in beautiful appearance and permits beautiful necessary printing, and a production process which permits easy and inexpensive production of such an information carrier. An IC chip 1 and a coil 2 connected to the IC chip are embedded in a substrate 3 composed of a nonwoven fabric. The IC chip and the coil are held between two nonwoven fabrics produced according to a conventional production procedure. The laminate of the nonwoven fabrics is fed to a roller or a press and the two nonwoven fabrics are hot-pressed, whereby their mating surfaces are joined with or without an adhesive (including low-melting synthetic resin fiber) incorporated into the webs. After positioning of the coil in the thus obtained raw product of information carrier, the laminate of the nonwoven fabrics and cover sheets is cut to obtain an information carrier of predetermined shape and size.
