Rubber-covered RFID module, and pneumatic tire having the it is embedded
View Patent ↗An RFID module comprising a transponder covered with a 0.2 to 2 mm thick rubber sheet containing 100 parts by weight of a diene-based rubber, less than 30 parts by weight of carbon black and 5 to 55 parts by weight of silica, having a relative permittivity of 7 or less and having a dynamic modulus of elasticity (E′) of 2 to 12 MPa, which can extend a communication distance with a required installation location and is superior in the durability at the time of being embedded in the tire.
1. An RFID module comprising a transponder covered with a 0.2 to 2 mm thick rubber sheet containing 100 parts by weight of a diene-based rubber, less than 30 parts by weight of carbon black and 5 to 55 parts by weight of silica, having a relative permittivity of 7 or less and having a dynamic modulus of elasticity (E′) of 2 to 12 MPa.
2. An RFID module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said diene-based rubber is at least one rubber selected from the group consisting of natural rubber, polyisoprene rubber, polybutadiene rubber, butyl rubber, ethylene-propylene-diene copolymer rubber and styrene-butadiene copolymer rubber.
3. An RFID module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said rubber sheet is comprised of a rubber composition of 100 parts by weight of the diene-based rubber into which 0 to 10 parts by weight of carbon black and 15 to 45 parts by weight of silica are compounded.
4. A pneumatic tire in which an RFID module according to claim 1 is embedded inside the tire at a position above a rim-flange contact portion from a tire shoulder portion.
5. An RFID module as claimed in claim 2 , wherein said rubber sheet is comprised of a rubber composition of 100 parts by weight of the diene-based rubber into which 0 to 10 parts by weight of carbon black and 15 to 45 parts by weight of silica are compounded.
6. A pneumatic tire in which an RFID module according to claim 5 is embedded inside the tire at a position above a rim-flange contact portion from a tire shoulder portion.
7. A pneumatic tire in which an RFID module according to claim 2 is embedded inside the tire at a position above a rim-flange contact portion from a tire shoulder portion.
8. A pneumatic tire in which an RFID module according to claim 3 is embedded inside the tire at a position above a rim-flange contact portion from a tire shoulder portion.
