Abstract
A label may include an electrically insulating label layer, an electrically conductive backing layer, and an electrically conductive adhesive. The label layer may include a front side including visible and/or scannable information and a back side. The electrically conductive backing layer may extend beyond an outer edge of the label layer in at least one direction parallel to the back side of the label layer. The electrically conductive backing layer may include a front side coupled to the back side of the label layer and a back side. An adhesive may be disposed on the back side of the backing layer.
Claims20
A label comprising:
- an electrically insulating label layer including a front side with visible and/or scannable information disposed thereon and a back side, the label layer forming an interior of a perimeter of a plurality of outer edges;
- an electrically conductive backing layer extending beyond at least one of the plurality of outer edges of the label layer in at least one direction away from the interior and parallel to the back side of the label layer, the backing layer including a front side directly coupled to the back side of the label layer and a back side;
- and
- an adhesive disposed directly on the back side of the backing layer.
A method of manufacturing a label comprising:
- coupling a front side of an electrically conductive backing layer directly to a back side of an electrically insulating label layer, the label layer forming an interior of a perimeter of a plurality of outer edges, so that the backing layer extends beyond at least one of the plurality of outer edges of the label layer in at least one direction away from the interior and parallel to the back side of the label layer, wherein:
- the label layer includes a front side with visible and/or scannable information disposed thereon and the back side, and
- the backing layer includes the front side and a back side;
- and
- applying an adhesive directly to the back side of the backing layer.
