Publication number: 20230019696Abstract: An RFID assembly that includes both a UHF patch antenna and an HF or LF loop antenna is provided. The patch antenna and the loop antenna are arranged inside a housing in such a manner that the loop antenna partially overlaps an end portion of the patch antenna, thereby forming an extension of the patch antenna. In this manner, a performance of the UHF patch antenna can be maintained despite decreasing the size of the same, while an interference between the patch antenna and the loop antenna can be suppressed, in particular, by providing a gap between the same.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 27, 2020Publication date: January 19, 2023Inventors: Elies Ennabli, Eric Suligoj

Patent number: 11030511Abstract: A device for holding a radio frequency identification (RFID) device and securing the RFID device to another object, particularly an object having a curved or irregular shaped surface. The device includes multiple locking plates that interleave or overlap within slots formed in the base of a container holding an RFID device. One of more locking members integral with the locking plates assist in securing one locking plate to another and resist separating the locking plates once installed. Flanges or extensions extend outside of the base and provide structure to secure the device to an object to be identified.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2018Date of Patent: June 8, 2021Assignee: ASSAABLOY ABInventors: Eric Suligoj, Jean-Miguel Robadey, Elies Ennabli, Gilles Horisberger

Patent number: 10824930Abstract: An RFID tag to be used, for example, for tagging livestock. The RFID tag has a high resistance to mechanical and thermal stress due to a physical separation of a main antenna and an integrated circuit forming an RFID circuit. The RFID tag may comprise an inlay with the main antenna and a chip module with the integrated circuit and a loop antenna inductively coupled to the main antenna. The inlay and the chip module are safely embedded in a tag housing. The compact chip module with electrical connections between the loop antenna and the integrated circuit can be reliably protected.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2019Date of Patent: November 3, 2020Assignee: ASSA ABLOY ABInventors: Jean-Miguel Robadey, Elies Ennabli, Hugo Kapp

Patent number: 10296821Abstract: An RFID device includes a substrate and an antenna. The antenna includes a first antenna section on a first side of the substrate and a second antenna section on the first side of the substrate and separated from the first antenna section by a non-conductive part of the substrate. The first antenna section includes a first plurality of vias that extend through the substrate from the first side of the substrate to a second side of the substrate. The antenna includes a third antenna section on at least the second side of the substrate to electrically connect conductive portions of the first plurality of vias to the second antenna section. The RFID device includes a circuit on the substrate and to process signals of the antenna.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2017Date of Patent: May 21, 2019Assignee: ASSA ABLOY ABInventors: Eric Suligoj, Elies Ennabli, Peter Kemarau

Patent number: 10176422Abstract: The RFID tag comprises an antenna (11) connected to a wireless communication device (18). The antenna comprises a conductive planar surface and a slot (14) extending at least in a part of said conductive planar surface, the slot (14) forming a non-conductive area of the antenna and defining a first part (12) and a second part (13) of the antenna. The wireless communication device comprises two contact pads (16, 17) being electrically connected respectively each to one of the first and second part of the antenna. The slot comprises a closed end formed by a further conductive part connecting said first and second parts the antenna and further comprises at least one conductive bridge (19-19??, 20, 21-21?) connecting said first and second parts of the antenna, the conductive bridge allowing to tune the resonance frequency of the tag by varying the length of the electrical path between the pads from the wireless communication device in the antenna.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2015Date of Patent: January 8, 2019Assignee: ASSA ABLOY ABInventors: Elies Ennabli, Jean-Miguel Robadey, Christian Mirus
