  • Publication number: 20260088509
    Abstract: A transponder label (2) for a container (3) comprises a carrier layer (20), and an RFID functional unit comprising an RFID chip (18) and an antenna structure (10) coupled thereto, which are coupled to the carrier layer (20). The antenna structure (10) has a first antenna section (11), a second antenna section (12) and an antenna loop (17), which is arranged between the first and second antenna sections (11, 12) and is coupled thereto. At least one of the two antenna sections (11, 12) comprises a first meander-shaped antenna arm (13) and a second meander-shaped antenna arm (14), which are arranged at a predetermined distance (D1, D2, D3) from each other and are electromagnetically coupled to each other.

  • Publication number: 20250292055
    Abstract: An electronic labelling assembly for a multi-part container includes a sleeve-shaped supplementary element which has a coupling structure and which is configured to be coupled with respect to a longitudinal axis of the supplementary element by means of the coupling structure to an outer surface of a primary closure of the container and to surround the primary closure. The labelling assembly further includes a label, wherein the label and the supplementary element are formed in coordination with each other and coupled to each other so that the label can be attached to the primary closure of the container by means of the supplementary element.

  • Patent number: 11734542
    Abstract: A transponder label has a dielectric spacer body with a first side and a second side and a transponder inlay with a chip and an antenna, wherein the transponder inlay is applied to the spacer body such that a first part of the antenna is arranged on the first side of the spacer body and a second part of the antenna is arranged on the second side of the spacer body. The transponder label further includes a sensor unit electrically coupled to the chip of the transponder inlay and configured to detect a measurement signal representative of a physical and/or chemical environmental parameter.
