A motor casing and a combination of a motor casing and a plug connection, the motor casing being designed for a drive of movable components of a vehicle, in particular sunroofs, blinds or roofs of convertible. A plug is inserted in the motor casing and a gap is provided between the motor casing and the plug connection. According to the disclosure, at least one projection is provided in the area of the gap and avoids play between the motor casing and the plug connection.

Threshold sensor with RFID communication ability

A differential pressure sensor with wireless RFID communication ability senses and records a specified differential pressure threshold without great energy consumption and without requiring direct access or visual inspection of the sensing element. The differential pressure sensor includes a sensing element sensing a differential pressure between a low pressure side and a high pressure side and a RFID tag comprising a tag antenna, a tag integrated circuit (IC) and a tamper loop connected to the tag IC for tracking a specific differential pressure threshold of the differential pressure sensor. The RFID tag is connected to the sensing element in such a way that the tamper loop is triggered if the specific differential pressure threshold has been reached.

Differential pressure sensor with RFID tag

This invention relates generally to ID frequency identification (RFID) transponders and receivers. More specifically to the methods, apparatus and systems of the fabrication of the transponders and receivers. In one example embodiment, to methods, apparatus, and systems to form effective barriers for devices having a layer structure, including encapsulating at least a portion of the side of the devices from being degraded due to impurity penetration into a laminate structure of the devices, which can cause corrosion or malfunction of the devices.

Barrier configurations and processes in layer structures

This invention presents an improved RFID method, system or apparatus which includes integrating one or more RFID elements or devices in an object, placing one or more RFID elements or devices on an object, and providing a smart placer which determines and places the RFID in the most efficient location in respect to interference, attenuation or frequency shifts that may exist, to improve the performance or efficiency of the RFID transponder and reader system ability.

Integrated RFID antenna fabrication method and apparatus for transponder assembly

A contactless smart card includes a card body, an antenna and an integrated circuit chip connected to the antenna's connecting terminals. The connecting terminals of the antenna are further connected to conductive via holes emerging at the card surface. A junction based on an electrically conductive substance is flush with the card surface and connects the conductive via holes. The electrically conductive substance is designed to be removed by scraping, and prevents the card from being used until it is removed.

Contactless card comprising inhibiting means

A contactless smart card has a sheet-like body containing an integrated circuit and an antenna via which the integrated circuit communicates with a terminal. The antenna lies in the plane of the card body and is constituted by several turns of a conductor that form a winding. A conductive bridge connects at least two turns of the winding to reduce its inductance. The card body includes a rupture zone that is designed to be broken when the card is first used. A portion of the connecting bridge lies within the rupture zone, so that it is broken when the rupture zone is broken during use.
