Patent number: 12005670Abstract: An RFID tag manufacturing system is provided that includes a conveyance device that conveys a base sheet provided with a plurality of antenna patterns to each of which an RFIC module is fixed. The system includes a laminating device that attaches a cover seal on the base sheet to cover the antenna patterns and a punching device that produces RFID tags by punching the cover seal and the base sheet with a punching blade that includes a frame-shaped cutting edge surrounding the antenna patterns to form a frame-shaped cut. The base sheet includes alignment mark in a non-attachment part of the cover seal. The punching device specifies the position of each of the antenna patterns covered with the cover seal based on the alignment mark, and punches the cover seal and the base sheet based on the specified position of the antenna pattern.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2022Date of Patent: June 11, 2024Assignee: MURATA MANUFACTURING CO., LTD.Inventors: Yoshinori Yamawaki, Noboru Kato, Ryosuke Washida

Publication number: 20240188271Abstract: A material sheet is provided having antenna patterns that include first and second coupling portions that are transported toward a mounting position, and an adhesive member that is disposed on the material sheet before reaching the mounting position. At a pickup position, a mounting device picks up an RFIC module including an RFIC chip and first and second terminal electrodes connected to the RFIC chip. At the mounting position, the mounting device mounts the picked-up RFIC module onto the adhesive member on the material sheet so that the first coupling portion and the first terminal electrode face each other and so that the second coupling portion and the second terminal electrode face each other.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 13, 2024Publication date: June 6, 2024Inventors: Yoshinori YAMAWAKI, Ryosuke WASHIDA, Noboru KATO
