Abstract

The invention relates to the label production industry, more specifically to the production of labels with increased performance for improving and amplifying the function of a label. Even more specifically, the invention relates to a system that allows the handling of said label. Said smart label system is characterised in that it is formed by a smart label comprising a) a transparent or translucent film with a print on one of the faces thereof; a film of varnish on said print or on the opposite face, depending on whether the print is on the inside or on the outside, and on said varnish, there is another, different print in a special ink that becomes visible in the event of an attempt to remove the label from the item to which it is stuck, and on this print there is a layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive; b) a chip with an antenna between the varnish and the adhesive; c) an electronic mobile device for communicating with the chip; and ch) an algorithm on the chip and on the electronic mobile device for unique encoded reading (padlock) encryption.

Claims

1. A smart tag system characterized by being formed by an intelligent label comprising a) a film transparent or translucent with a printed on one of its faces; A varnish film on this print or on the opposite side, depending on whether the print is inside or outside, and on this varnish is another different print with a special ink that will be visible when attempting to peel off the label from the article in which it is adhered and on this impression there is a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive; B} a chip with antenna between the varnish and the adhesive; E) a mobile electronic device for communicating with e! chip; Eh) an algorithm on the chip and on the mobile electronic device for unique coded reading encryption (padlock), d) a decoding communication APP for reading the chip and downloading related information from the cloud, and e) a movie, called transfert, in That the label is gently adhered and that it can easily be peeled off to adhere it to the article to be labeled.

2. The smart tag system as claimed in the preceding claim, further characterized in that the transparent film or translucent with a printed on one of its faces is a high density polyethylene film.

3. Intelligent etching system as claimed in claim 1, further characterized in that the pressure-sensitive adhesive is a Hot Melt adhesive of high anchorage, ultra sensitive polymer-based, resistant to chemical transgressors.

4. Intelligent label system, as claimed in 1, further characterized in that the transfert is a siliconized and super calendared glazed paper.

Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0028] FIG. 1 Illustrates the label that when partially detached, shows that this manipulation was carried out.

[0029] FIG. 2 illustrates the different elements of the system permitting the handling of the tag of the present invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The present invention relates to a smart label system which achieves the objectives that the prior art has not achieved. Having shown the advantages of the present invention and the problems it solves, will be understandable its conceptualization, but to date it has not even been glimpsed in the prior art, with results, never imagined by the inventors.

[0031] The elements that make up the system are four: a smart tag with ability to show tampering, a communication algorithm between the tag and a smart device, such as a Smartphone, a Tablet or other device that allows the communication protocol and the ability to display the information received. It is required in addition to this communication protocol and a device, a cloud which containing a database with the information related to the information read on the label.

[0032] For information security in the cloud and in the mobile smart device, this information is encrypted, and only have sense with the algorithm located in the smart mobile saying.

[0033] The structure of the smart label capable of displaying an improper handling comprises a transparent or translucent film with a print on one of its sides. On this print there is a varnish layer and on this varnish has another different print with a special ink, which will become visible when trying to take off the label of the article in which it is attached. Finally, a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive is provided on this impression. This adhesive, is a high adhesion polymer based adhesive, sensitive to removable pressure.

[0034] The transparent or translucent layer with a printed on one of its faces is a high density polyethylene layer.

[0035] The chemical compositions of the different components are an industrial secret, but they are such as to allow to take off the transparent or translucent layer and leave in the article the layer of the adhesive, with a visible legend that says the label has been improperly manipulate.

[0036] Some modalities have to do with the colors of the legend that will appear in the article, or in the disposition of this legend. It is also possible to have a UV radiation filter in the printed layer, or the adhesive itself will comprise an absorbent of this radiation.

[0037] In the beginning, this label will be attached to a layer, called transfert, which will easily allow it to be peeled off to adhere to the article to be labeled. This transfert is a glazed paper, siliconized and super-calendered.

[0038] Between this support layer and the adhesive layer, a chip is located that will have the character string that makes it unique and hence the article in which the label will be fixed. There is also, as a preferred modality, an antenna connected to the chip, which has no dependence on WiFi.

[0039] In addition to the proprietary data, the chip will have an algorithm for single coded reading encryption (padlock) and decoder communication APP.

[0040] The Hot Melt adhesive is of high anchorage, ultra-sensitive with polymer base, resistant to chemical transgressors.

[0041] An example of a label with the possibility of indicating whether it has been fraudulently manipulated or not, is the one that exists in the market with the Label Look brand in its dual Layer version.

[0042] FIG. 1 illustrates the label which, when is partially detached, shows that this manipulation was carried out. In this figure the numeral 1 indicates the layer transparent or translucent with a printed on its upper face. The numeral 2 indicates the legend that becomes visible when partially or totally detaching the transparent or translucent film. The adhesive with stronger adhesion to its surface of the article than to the surface with which it is in contact with the transparent or translucent layer is indicated by the numeral 3, numeral 4 points to the chip, it is located between the translucent layer 1 and the adhesive 3, but may be in any required zone.

[0043] FIG. 2 illustrates the different elements of the system permitting the handling of the label of the present invention. The number 4 shows the chip, number 5 points out to the tag with the characteristic of making truculent manipulation thereof apparent, number 6 indicates the mobile device with the application for reading the contents of the chip of the tag and the algorithm for decrypting the information on the label and the one that is related to this information in the cloud 7.

[0044] Depending on its use, the label can be reused by rewriting the chip or relating the information contained therein, with other information contained in the cloud.

[0045] The invention has been sufficiently described so that a person of ordinary skill in the art can reproduce and obtain the results mentioned in the present invention. However, any skilled person in the field of the art of the present invention may be able to make modifications not described in the present application. However, if for the application of these modifications in a particular product or in the process of manufacture of the same, the matter claimed in the following claims is required, such structures should be understood within the scope of the invention.

[0046] Having described the invention with degree of habilitation. It is considered as novelty and is therefore claimed as novelty, contained in the following claims.
