Abstract

See full text

A package includes a container and a closure secured to a neck finish of the container. An RFID circuit is disposed on the package, and includes an RFID tag on the closure and an RFID antenna on the container. The RFID tag and antenna are so disposed on the closure and the container that the tag makes electrical contact with the antenna to complete the RFID circuit when the closure is applied to the container neck finish. The RFID tag preferably is molded into or mounted on an inside surface of the closure, and the RFID antenna preferably is molded into or mounted on an external surface of the container neck finish. In various exemplary embodiments of the disclosure, the RFID tag is mounted on an inside surface of the closure skirt, an inside surface of the closure base wall or an inside surface of a liner disk within the closure, and the RFID antenna is molded into or mounted on an outside surface of the container neck finish or an end surface of the container neck finish.
