Abstract
A tag tape and a tag tape roll that can realize a uniform roll winding state, and an RFID label produced using them are provided. A tag tape in which a plurality of RFID circuit elements provided with an IC chip storing information and a loop antenna for transmission/reception of information is continuously arranged in a tape longitudinal direction with a predetermined interval is provided with an extension part of a protection member that compensates a difference of a thickness in a portion of the tag tape where the RFID circuit element is arranged and a thickness in a portion other than that of the tag tape in a tape width direction.
Claims22
A tag tape comprising:
- a plurality of RFID circuit elements continuously arranged in a tape longitudinal direction at a predetermined interval, that respectively includes an IC circuit part for storing information and an antenna for transmitting/receiving information, and
- a thickness compensating portion that compensates a difference of a thickness in a portion of said tag tape where said RFID circuit element is arranged and a thickness in a portion other than that of said tag tape in a tape width direction.
A tag tape roll comprising:
- a tag tape wound around an axis substantially perpendicular to the tape longitudinal direction,
- said tag tape including:
- a plurality of RFID circuit elements continuously arranged in a tape longitudinal direction at a predetermined interval, that respectively includes an IC circuit part for storing information and an antenna for transmitting/receiving information;
- and
- a thickness compensating portion that compensates a difference of a thickness in a portion of said tag tape where said RFID circuit element is arranged and a thickness in a portion other than that of said tag tape in a tape width direction.
A cartridge comprising:
- a tag tape roll provided therein that winds a tag tape around an axis substantially perpendicular to the tape longitudinal direction,
- said tag tape including:
- a plurality of RFID circuit elements continuously arranged in a tape longitudinal direction at a predetermined interval, that respectively includes an IC circuit part for storing information and an antenna for transmitting/receiving information;
- and
- a thickness compensating portion that compensates a difference of a thickness in a portion of said tag tape where said RFID circuit element is arranged and a thickness in a portion other than that of said tag tape in a tape width direction.
An RFID label comprising:
- a first tag tape base layer in a substantially tape state where a plurality of RFID circuit elements are arranged, said RFID circuit element including an IC circuit part for storing information and an antenna for transmitting/receiving information;
- a second tag tape base layer provided on a side opposite said first tag tape base layer, that sandwiches said RFID circuit element between them in a tape thickness direction;
- a mounting adhesive layer that mounts said RFID circuit element to at least one of said first tag tape base layer and said second tag tape base layer;
- an affixing adhesive layer that affixes said second tag tape base layer to an object to be affixed;
- and
- a thickness compensating portion arranged between said first tag tape base layer and said second tag tape base layer, that compensates a difference of a thickness in a portion of said RFID label where said RFID circuit element is arranged and a thickness in a portion other than that of said RFID label in a label width direction.
