CLOSURE
A package comprises a container and a closure. The container includes a body formed to include a product-receiving space, a filler neck coupled to the body, and a thread coupled to the filler neck. The closure includes an outer cap, an inner cap arranged radially inward of the outer cap, and an electronic system arranged between the outer cap and the inner cap.
NFC/RF Mechanism With Multiple Valid States for Detecting an Open Container, and Methods of Making and Using the Same
A wireless (e.g., near field or RF) communication device, and methods of manufacturing and using the same are disclosed. The wireless communication device includes a receiver and/or transmitter, a substrate with an antenna thereon, an integrated circuit, and one or more protection lines. The antenna receives and/or transmits or broadcasts a wireless signal. The integrated circuit processes the wireless signal and/or information therefrom, and/or generates the wireless signal and/or information therefor. The integrated circuit has a first set of terminals electrically connected to the antenna. The protection line(s) are on a common or different substrate as the antenna. The protection line(s) sense or determine a continuity state of a package or container on which the communication device is placed or to which the communication device is fixed or adhered, and are electrically connected to a second set of terminals of the integrated circuit different from the first set of terminals.
Lockable security receptacle for delivered packages
Disclosed is a lockable security receptacle for the safe temporary storage of delivered articles to a home or office. The receptacle comprises of a bag having single opening through which the articles can be placed, a lock to secure the articles within the bag, means to securely but removably attach the bag to the inside of the home or office door and a cable connecting the bag to the attachment means. The bag can comprise a water-resistant, ballistic grade fabric of interwoven conductive fibers for protection and security of the delivered article, and can be made with one or more alarms that are triggered if the bag is cut, if the bag is pulled or if the attachment means is pulled.
SECURITY TAG HOUSING
A housing for a security tag having improved band attachments is provided. The housing includes undercut regions for receipt of the band to allow for securement of the band to the security tag.
Anti-counterfeiting structure and packaging box having the same
An anti-counterfeiting structure to prevent tampering or replacement of the authenticated product of a packaging box includes a fixing member, a connecting member, a first mounting member, a second mounting member, and an anti-counterfeiting member. The connecting member connected to the fixing member defines a first receiving groove. The first mounting member is disposed in the first receiving groove and defines a second receiving groove. The anti-counterfeiting member in the second receiving groove includes an electronic screen and a battery disposed on the electronic screen. The first mounting member can be readily moved along a first direction away from the connecting member, driving the electronic screen along the first direction and thereby separating the battery from the electronic screen, causing cancellation of the structure and the visible authenticity of the product within the packaging box.
Wireless tamper system
Disclosed is a wireless tamper sensor (WTS). The WTS includes a transmitter, probe, processing device, and power supply. The processing device is in signal communication with the probe and the power supply is in signal communication with the transmitter and processing device. The processing device includes a processor and a computer-readable medium (CRM). The CRM has encoded thereon computer-executable instructions to cause the processor to initiating a tamper state to untampered, detect a physical trigger on the probe, and set the tamper state to tampered in response to detecting the physical trigger.
Beverage container sound device
A noise producing beverage container comprising a container having a surface which includes a sealed opening in the surface. The noise producing beverage container includes a sound making device attached to the interior of the container adjacent the sealed opening and an arm movable upon opening the sealed opening to contact the sound making device. The sealed opening is initially in a closed position and upon opening the sealed opening the arm contacts the sound making device to produce a sound.
NFC/RF mechanism with multiple valid states for detecting an open container, and methods of making and using the same
A wireless (e.g., near field or RF) communication device, and methods of manufacturing and using the same are disclosed. The wireless communication device includes a receiver and/or transmitter, a substrate with an antenna thereon, an integrated circuit, and one or more protection lines. The antenna receives and/or transmits or broadcasts a wireless signal. The integrated circuit processes the wireless signal and/or information therefrom, and/or generates the wireless signal and/or information therefor. The integrated circuit has a first set of terminals electrically connected to the antenna. The protection line(s) are on a common or different substrate as the antenna. The protection line(s) sense or determine a continuity state of a package or container on which the communication device is placed or to which the communication device is fixed or adhered, and are electrically connected to a second set of terminals of the integrated circuit different from the first set of terminals.
Anti-counterfeiting assembly and packing box having the same
An anti-counterfeiting assembly includes a fixing member, a first connecting member, a second connecting member, an anti-counterfeiting member and a cover. The first connecting member fixed to the fixing member, the first connecting member defining a first receiving groove. The second connecting member movably connected to the first connecting member, the first connecting member is arranged between the fixing member and the second connecting member, the second connecting member defining a second receiving groove communicating with the first receiving groove. The anti-counterfeiting member includes an electronic screen and a battery arranged on the electronic screen, the battery disposed in the first receiving groove, the electronic screen disposed in the second receiving groove. The cover wrapping the first connecting member and the second connecting member, the second connecting member is adapted to move along a first direction away from the fixing member.
Membrane seal comprising a liquid pouch and a radiofrequency device for determining the integrity of the seal
The invention relates to a membrane seal (1) for a container (2) for products, for example a container for food products, cosmetic products, products for medical use, etc. The membrane seal comprises a control device and is configured to facilitate inventory management, authenticate contents, and protect against an ill-intentioned attempt to siphon the content stored in the container (2). The invention also relates to a stopper and a container provided with such a membrane seal.
