Abstract
Disclosed are RFID tags and methods of the manufacture thereof. RFID tags may generally include a backing substrate, a covering substrate, a RFID device positioned therebetween and indelible identification indicia defined on the backing substrate and/or the cover substrate. Methods of manufacture may include molding the substrate(s) with indelible identification indicia, positioning the RFID device between two substrates, orienting the indicia the indicia outwardly away from the RFID device and adhering the substrates so as to secure the RFID device therebetween.
Claims20
A radio frequency identification tag, comprising:
- a. at least one backing substrate defining an upper surface;
- b. a radio frequency identification device associated with the upper surface of the backing substrate;
- c. at least one cover substrate adhered to the backing substrate with the radio frequency identification device positioned therebetween;
- and
- d. indelible identification indicia defined with respect to at least one of the backing substrates and at least one of the covering substrates.
A radio frequency identification tag, comprising:
- a. a backing substrate defining an upper surface;
- b. a cavity defined with respect to the backing substrate, wherein the cavity is configured and dimensioned to receive radio frequency identification tag therewithin;
- c. a radio frequency identification device positioned within the cavity defined in the backing substrate;
- and
- d. a cover positioned with respect to the cavity so as to secure the radio frequency identification tag therewithin.
A method for fabricating a radio frequency identification tag, comprising:
- a. molding a first flexible substrate with indelible identification indicia defined with respect to at least one surface thereof;
- b. providing a second flexible substrate;
- c. positioning a radio frequency identification device between the first flexible substrate and the second flexible substrate with the indelible identification indicia oriented outwardly and away from the radio frequency identification device;
- and
- d. adhering the first flexible substrate with respect to the second flexible substrate so as to capture and secure the radio frequency identification device therebetween.
A method for fabricating a radio frequency identification tag, comprising:
- a. molding a backing substrate, defined with respect to at least one surface thereof;
- b. providing a covering substrate;
- c. creating a cavity defined with respect to the backing substrate, wherein the cavity is configured and dimensioned to receive radio frequency identification tag therewithin;
- d. positioning a radio frequency identification device within the cavity defined in the backing substrate, and
- e. adhering the covering substrate positioned in the cavity to the backing substrate so as to secure the radio frequency identification tag therewithin the backing substrate.
