  • Patent number: 11797815
    Abstract: A container is provided that includes an RFID module, and further includes an insulating base material that forms an outer shape of the container; a metal film formed on a first main surface of the insulating base material; and a slit formed in the metal film. Moreover, the RFID module includes an RFIC element, a filter circuit that transmits a current caused by an electromagnetic wave at a unique resonance frequency serving as a communication frequency to the RFIC element, and first and second electrodes connected to the filter circuit. The metal film is formed to wrap around an outer periphery of the container in a direction intersecting the slit, and the first and second electrodes of the RFID module are electrically connected to the metal film across the slit formed between the first electrode and the second electrode.

The antenna pattern includes a first antenna film and a second antenna film on a first main surface of the base. The RFID module includes an RFIC element, a filter circuit, and first and second electrodes. The filter circuit is configured to transmit a current due to an electromagnetic wave at a natural resonance frequency to the RFIC element. The first and second electrodes are connected to the filter circuit. The first electrode of the RFID module and the first antenna film are electrically connected to each other. The second electrode of the RFID module and the second antenna film are electrically connected to each other. Moreover, a sheet resistance of each of the first antenna film and the second antenna film is 0.5 ?/? or more.

  • Publication number: 20230259736
    Abstract: A container including an RFID module is provided that includes a base, a metal film, and a slit. The base has an insulating property. The metal film is on a first main surface of the base. The slit separates the metal film into a first metal region and a second metal region. The RFID module includes an RFIC element, a filter circuit configured to transmit a current due to an electromagnetic wave at a natural resonance frequency being a communication frequency to the RFIC element, and first and second electrodes to be connected to the filter circuit. The first electrode of the RFID module and the first metal region of the metal film are electrically connected to each other. The second electrode of the RFID module and the second metal region of the metal film are electrically connected to each other.

  • Patent number: 11166974
    Abstract: Regarding Diquafosol ophthalmic solution comprising a chelating agent at a concentration of 0.0001 to 1% (w/v), formation of insoluble precipitates found in Diquafosol ophthalmic solution during storage of the solution, as well as deterioration of the filtration performance in the course of production (course of filtration sterilization), have been inhibited. Further, in Diquafosol ophthalmic solution comprising a chelating agent, reduction of eye irritation and enhancement of the preservative effectiveness have been confirmed, in comparison to Diquafosol ophthalmic solution comprising no chelating agent. Accordingly, the present invention has been confirmed to provide physicochemical properties that are stable during the courses of production and distribution as well as the course of storage by a patient, and also reduce eye irritation and enhance preservative effectiveness.
