Abstract

A sealing tape to be used with a sealing device includes an adhesive surface to which an adhesive is applied and RFID tags are attached; and a non-adhesive surface being a back side of the adhesive surface. The sealing device includes a tape supply reel for supplying a sealing tape to which an RFID tag has been coupled; and a sealing part for sealing, with the sealing tape, an opening of a plastic packaging material holding a product, wherein the sealing part adheres the RFID tag, which is coupled to one end of the sealing tape having the length for one use, to an adhesive positioned on the other end portion of the sealing tape having the length for one use, wherein the RFID tag is broken by the adhesive strength with respect to the other end portion when the sealing tape sealing the plastic packaging material is torn.

Claims (12)

1. A sealing tape comprising:

an adhesive surface to which an adhesive is applied; and

a non-adhesive surface being a back side of the adhesive surface;

wherein the sealing tape has basic sections repeatedly arranged in a lengthwise direction of the sealing tape, each of the basic sections including a first adhesion section, a second adhesion section, a first RFID tag section, and a second RFID tag section arranged in consecutive order in the lengthwise direction of the sealing tape and separated by adhesive non-application areas therebetween,

wherein the first RFID section and the second RFID section include RFID tags disposed on the adhesive surface thereof, and the first adhesion section and the second adhesion section include no RFID,

wherein the first adhesion section, the second adhesion section, the first RFID tag section, and the second RFID tag section have substantially equal lengths,

wherein the RFID tags are arranged on an area adjacent to one side of each of the first RIFD tag section and the second RFID tag section, and

wherein the first adhesion section and the second adhesion section are configured to be attached to the first RFID tag section and the second adhesion section, respectively, and the RFID tag is structured to be broken when separated from the adhesion surface.

2. The sealing tape of claim 1 , wherein the adhesive non-application areas comprise first adhesive non-application areas formed at both ends of each of the first adhesion section and the second adhesion section in the widthwise direction.

3. The sealing tape of claim 1 , wherein the adhesive non-application areas comprise second adhesive non-application areas formed at both ends of each of the first adhesion section, the second adhesion section, the first RFID tag section, and the second RFID tag section in the lengthwise direction.

4. The sealing tape of claim 1 , wherein a plurality of transporting holes for transporting the sealing tape are formed at regular intervals at both ends of the sealing tape in the lengthwise direction.

5. The sealing tape of claim 1 , wherein a plurality of sensing holes for arranging the sealing tape at a suitable position on a sealing device are formed at regular intervals at least one end of the sealing tape in the lengthwise direction.
