Patent number: 8851387Abstract: An anti-counterfeiting bottle includes a metal cap, a bottle body and a RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification) tag. The RFID tag includes a grounded surface, a monopole antenna and a RFID chip. The grounded surface is attached to the bottle body. The monopole antenna is attached to the bottle and is electrically connected to the grounded surface. The RFID chip is attached to the bottle and is electrically connected to the monopole antenna and the grounded surface respectively, wherein the RFID chip, the monopole antenna and the grounded surface form a loop structure. When the RFID tag is torn up, the loop structure is destroyed as well, such that the RFID tag cannot be read anymore, thus achieving the anti-counterfeiting function.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2011Date of Patent: October 7, 2014Assignee: China Steel CorporationInventors: Shih-Kang Kuo, Sung-Lin Chen, Long-Gee Liao, Jhu-Yong Hsu

Patent number: 8568652Abstract: A resident measurement system for a charge level of a blast furnace includes a chamber, a servo system, a distance measurement unit, and a cooling-cleaning unit. The chamber is combined with a lateral furnace wall of the blast-furnace, covers an opening of the furnace wall, and has a pivoting hole. A pivot of the distance measurement unit is pivotally disposed at the pivoting hole, and the distance measurement unit is driven by the servo system to perform a motion with the pivot as a movement center, so as to measure the charge level. The cooling-cleaning unit is used to supply a high-pressure gas, which flows through the distance measurement unit to perform cooling and cleansing operations.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2010Date of Patent: October 29, 2013Assignee: China Steel CorporationInventors: Chen-Yuan Lu, Shih-Kang Kuo, Lien-Kuei Chiang, Wen-Chieh Li, Shan-Wen Du

Patent number: 8044805Abstract: A radio frequency identification (RFID) tag using a monopole antenna is provided, in which an antenna structure is disposed on a metal plate, two ends of an RFID chip are electrically connected to the antenna structure, and the antenna structure and the RFID chip form a loop structure. The RFID tag can be disposed on a surface of an object to be measured, or disposed in an inner accommodation space of the object to be measured, so it is widely used in various applications. Additionally, the RFID tag is easily manufactured, so the production cost can be reduced. Furthermore, the RFID tag has a larger readable distance, and an electromagnetic wave emitting direction of the RFID tag is adjustable according to different included angles between the metal plate and the antenna structure, thereby causing signals to be read easily and identification ability to improve, two desirable effects.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2009Date of Patent: October 25, 2011Assignee: China Steel CorporationInventors: Shih-Kang Kuo, Sung-Lin Chen, Chang-Tsun Lin, Lung-Chi Liao
