  • Patent number: 10417940
    Abstract: A plate holder for holding a license plate includes: a holder base having, on a first side, a contact surface, which extends along a contact plane and on which a license plate is rests in a position arranged on the plate holder; and two guide rails, which are arranged on the holder base and extend parallel to each other and between which the license plate can be slid in an insertion direction for arrangement on the contact surface, the license plate being held between the guide rails in the position arranged on the plate holder, wherein the holder base has, on a second side facing away from the contact surface, a placement surface, which extends parallel to the contact plane, is spaced apart from the contact surface in a vertical direction pointing perpendicularly to the contact plane, and can be placed on an object to arrange the plate holder.

  • Patent number: 10410545
    Abstract: A plate carrier for carrying a license plate includes: a carrier body; two guide rails that are arranged on the carrier body and extend so as to be mutually parallel, and between which the license plate can be pushed in an insertion direction in order to be arranged on the plate carrier, the license plate being held between the guide rails when arranged on the plate carrier; and at least one resilient latching element that is arranged on the carrier body and that can be deformed elastically when the license plate is being arranged on the plate carrier, and that secures the license plate on the carrier body against movement in the insertion direction when the license plate is arranged on the plate carrier.

  • Patent number: 10068499
    Abstract: A label for being applied, by being wrapped around, to an object to be identified, includes a non-adhesive top side including a printing region for receiving a print on the top side and an adhesive bottom side, by which the label is fastened to the object. The label is in the shape of a strip having a length that is greater than a periphery of the object to be labeled. A transparent wrapping tab is arranged adjacently to the printing region in a longitudinal direction of the label. A length of the wrapping tab is at least equal to the periphery of the object to be labeled. The wrapping tab is wrapped on the printing region and covers the printing region when the label has been applied to the object. An RFID transponder is arranged between the top side and the bottom side in the printing region.
