Abstract

A holder for conveyance of a cylindrical body includes a tubular portion having a hollow portion in which a cylindrical body is housed, and a protrusion having a base end connected to an inner wall surface of the tubular portion and a distal end formed as a free end. The protrusion has elasticity and flexibility, and the protrusion is disposed on an inner diameter side of an outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical body at an expected housing position such that a side surface of the distal end of the protrusion is allowed to come into contact with the outer circumferential surface while the protrusion is warped to an outer diameter side of the hollow portion.

Claims (10)

1. A holder for conveyance, comprising:

a tubular portion having a hollow portion in which a cylindrical body is housed; and

a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag and a ring member both embedded in the tubular portion,

wherein the ring member includes a ferromagnetic body, and

wherein in a plan view taken in an axial direction of the tubular portion, the ring member comprises a substantially annular shape that has at least one discontinuity along a circumference thereof, and the RFID tag and the ring member are concyclically positioned.

2. The holder for conveyance according to claim 1 , wherein the ring member has a C-shaped configuration in the plan view taken in the axial direction of the tubular portion.

3. The holder for conveyance according to claim 1 , wherein the ferromagnetic body is iron.

4. The holder for conveyance according to claim 1 , wherein an antenna built in the RFID tag is surrounded by an inscribed circle and a circumscribed circle of the ring member.

5. The holder for conveyance according to claim 1 , wherein a gap between opposing end surfaces across the at least one discontinuity of the ring member is 5 mm or greater.

6. The holder for conveyance according to claim 1 , wherein the ring member is not interposed between the RFID tag and an outer circumferential surface of the tubular portion in a range enclosed with a pair of lines each connecting a central axis of the RFID tag parallel to the axial direction to outer circumferential side edges of opposing end surfaces across the at least one discontinuity of the ring member, wherein an angle θ between the pair of lines is 100° or more.
