BACKGROUND
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The invention relates to a bottle cap for packaging fast moving consumer goods, in
particular to a bottle cap with an identification code (two-dimensional code or digital
code) in a preset region, thereby realizing the bottle cap applied to commodity anti-counterfeiting,
point accumulating marketing, product tracing, goods fleeing prevention and other
aspects.
RELATED ART
[0002] Along with popularization of intelligent phones, people increasingly depend on a
cellphone to obtain various pieces of information. It is an important means to obtain
the information by using two-dimensional code application taking the cellphone as
an important inlet. At present, no matter pamphlets, newspaper, television or internet
all contain massive two-dimensional codes. A consumer can connect the cellphone to
a designated webpage to obtain a content by using the cellphone to slightly swipe
the two-dimensional code on various media.
[0003] Although being very popular in application, the two-dimensional codes are mainly
concentrated on application of product propagation. Currently, the two-dimensional
codes are not much too applied in aspects of fast moving consumer goods such as beverage,
alcohols, health care products, seasonings, etc., even one of the products has uses
the two-dimensional code, one type of products has one code which is similar to a
one dimensional code on the product and only intends to facilitate the consumer to
quickly obtain product information instead of anti-counterfeiting.
[0004] Since competition of a selling market is fierce day by day, products, especially
famous brand products, of many manufacturers have a huge risk of counterfeiting, as
so far, the manufacturers invest a lot in anti-counterfeiting and source tracing of
the products. But as a fact that one product has one code is not realized, the anti-counterfeiting
effect is slight. Several anti-counterfeiting techniques realize the fact that one
product has one code, but due to huge investment, a consumer positive anti-counterfeiting
method is complex and lags behind, an anti-counterfeiting and source tracing rate
of the products is relatively low, and a real anti-counterfeiting and source tracing
action is not realized.
[0005] In daily life, bottled liquid fast moving consumer goods are common, bottle caps
used for product packaging are various, and common bottle caps comprise spiral bottle
caps, tinplate bottle caps (also called as crown caps) and pull ring bottle caps,
etc. The spiral bottles caps are mainly used for mineral water and beverage of plastic
package, the tinplate bottle caps are mainly used for beer and beverage of glass bottles,
and the pull ring bottle caps are mainly used for edible oil, soybean sauce, vinegar,
etc. In prior art, for the bottle cap-based anti-counterfeiting code, a label with
an anti-counterfeiting coating or a label which remains remaining a bottom after being
uncovered is pasted to the bottle cap, but a defect of using these two labels is that
the labels are very easily and maliciously scraped or uncovered by people by a retail
market.

is, one two-dimensional code corresponds to only one digital code; in addition, the
two-dimensional code on each bottle is unique and is equivalent to an account, the
digital code is not unique and is equivalent to a password, and a combination of the
two-dimensional code and the digital code is unique, thereby uniquely verifying a
bottle cap identity. The second anti-counterfeiting code can also be a two-dimensional
code. With combination of the two-dimensional code as a account and the two-dimensional
code as a password, the paired anti-counterfeiting codes uniquely verify a bottle
cap identity.

taken out of the lower cap body 12 to opening a sealing opening.
[0068] In FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, on the pull ring bottle cap, a two-dimensional code 20Ais
arranged on the upper surface of the upper cap body 11, and a second anti-counterfeiting
code 20B is arranged on the lower surface of the inner plug piece 14; the two-dimensional
code 20A and the second anti-counterfeiting code 20B are in one to one correspondence
and constitute a verification code of single products. A complete verification code
of the product can be obtained by only taking down the inner plug piece 14, thereby
participating in corresponding activities and obtaining points or draw a lottery.
[0069] Structures of the two pull ring bottle caps are described as above, the two-dimensional
code is arranged at the upper surface of the upper cap body, a second anti-counterfeiting
code is arranged at the lower surface of the inner plug piece (sealed in a bottle
body), so that a product sealed by the pull ring bottle cap is not easy to counterfeit
and good in anti-counterfeiting effect. In addition, the pull ring bottle cap with
the paired anti-counterfeiting codes further has the advantages of simplicity in manufacturing
and lower cost. A laser engraving device or a code spraying device is adopted to manufacture
the two-dimensional code at the front surface of the pull ring bottle cap, and then
the digital code corresponding to the two-dimensional code is manufactured on the
conveyor belt or at the back of the inner plug piece of the overturned pull ring bottle
cap, thereby obtaining the pull ring bottle cap with the paired anti-counterfeiting
codes. The second anti-counterfeiting code can also be a two-dimensional code.
[0070] After the pull ring bottle cap is endowed with the codes, a production enterprise
uses the pull ring bottle cap to seal a product. When the product with the pull ring
bottle cap is invested into the market and purchased by a consumer, the consumer can
participate in activities provided by the manufacturer in following manners: (1) the
consumer scans the two-dimensional code on the front surface of the bottle cap by
using recognizing software of a cellphone; (2) the consumer accesses to a background
by a URL of the two-dimensional code and accesses an activity website of the manufacturer;
(3) the consumer is prompted to pull the pull ring open and input the digital code
on the back of the inner plug piece; and (4) activity information provided by the
manufacturer is shown to participate in the manufacturer activities. Specific activity
information can be anti-counterfeiting, points accumulating, lottery drawing, source
tracing and other contents, and the manufacturer can further set other activity information.
[0071] In addition, since the two-dimensional code arranged at the upper cap body of the
pull ring bottle cap is unique for single products, the manufacturer or consumer can
query the source tracing information without opening the cap of the product by scanning
the two-dimensional code on the bottle cap. On one hand, the consumer can predict
the authenticity of the product in advance, and on the other hand, the manufacturer
can query whether goods fleeing exist.
[0072] Compared with the prior art, according to the pull ring bottle cap according to the
present invention, paired anti-counterfeiting codes are arranged at the upper surface
of the upper cap body and the lower surface of the inner plug piece in the lower cap
body. After scanning the two-dimensional code, the consumer can obtain related links,
and then pulls the pull ring to tear the inner plug piece open to obtain the second
anti-counterfeiting code, thereby participating in activities, points obtaining or
lottery drawing. The anti-counterfeiting codes are arranged in pair, and the second
anti-counterfeiting code is hidden at the lower surface of the inner plug piece, thereby
preventing damage or counterfeiting.
[0073] In a fourth group of embodiments of the present invention, there is provided a bottle
cap with dual identification codes. Two embodiments are combined for describing a
structure of the bottle cap with dual identification codes.
Embodiment 9
[0074] As shown in FIG. 13, the bottle cap with the dual identification codes according
to the present invention comprises a cap body 1; a two-dimensional code information
layer 4 and an adhesive layer 8 are downward arranged at the inner side of the cap
body 1 in sequence; a bottom ink layer 7 and a surface ink layer 6 are upwards arranged
at the top side of the cap body 1; and after a partial area of the surface oil surface
6 is removed by a laser engraving process etc., the exposed visible bottom ink layer
7 forms a character code information layer 3. The character code information layer
3 containing different information can be formed by changing a path of the laser engraving.
Information in the character code information layer 3 consists of letters and/or numbers
which are shorter in length, thereby facilitating recognition in a production process
and realizing a faster velocity. Character strings in the character code information
layer 3 are arranged in one row or multiple rows for arraying. In order not to affect
a product appearance, the bottom ink layer 7 adopts fluorescent ink or transparent
ink. In addition, a printed pattern layer is arranged between the bottom ink layer
7 and the surface ink layer 6 (not shown in figure).
[0075] In the bottle cap with the dual identification codes according to the present invention,
information in the two-dimensional code information layer and information in the character
code information layer are associated and have a unique corresponding relationship
and constitute two identification codes of the bottle cap. Two-dimensional codes arranged
on different bottle caps are different, character codes arranged on different bottle
caps are different and the two identification codes respectively become identity identifications
of the bottle cap. The two-dimensional code information layer 4 can be used for participating
in points accumulating, lottery drawing and other activities after a consumer damages
the package. The two-dimensional code information layer 4 is arranged at the inner
side (inner surface) of the cap body 1 and can prevent the two-dimensional code participating
in the activities from being damaged or counterfeited in a selling process. The character
code information layer 3 arranged at the top side of the cap body is used for preventing

the middle of the top side or a position close to the periphery of the top 11 with
a laser engraving device, and can be engraved in one row or a plurality of rows. A
two-dimensional code information layer 14 can be formed by spraying a solvent such
as ink in the middle of the inner side of the top 11.
[0077] As shown in FIG. 15, a sealing gasket 15 is arranged at the inner side of the crown
cap and is arranged at the surface of the adhesive layer and the second two-dimensional
code information layer 14. The sealing gasket 15 is made of an edible silica gel material
and is arranged to isolate the second two-dimensional code information layer 14 from
the liquid in a bottle, the second two-dimensional code information layer 14 is prevented
from being dissolved and damaged by liquid, and the second two-dimensional code information
layer 14 is prevented from polluting the liquid in the bottle. The sealing gasket
15 is usually a round transparent silica gel gasket and contacts with the adhesive
layer with the upper surface. The edge of the lower surface of the sealing gasket
15 has an annular groovy structure, which is matched with the top of the cap body
in size; when the bottle cap is covered, a bottle opening can be embedded into a sealing
groove of the sealing gasket 15 to isolate liquid in the bottle from outside; and
the sealing edge of the sealing gasket is prevented from being corroded by liquid
and from falling off.
[0078] In the present embodiment, information in the second two-dimensional code information
layer 14 and information in the character code information layer 13 which are arranged
on the bottle cap correspond to and are associated with each other, and a production
manufacturer or dealer can determine a two-dimensional code at the inner side of the
bottle cap by recognizing the character code at the outer side of the bottle cap,
thereby ensuring that the normal proceeding of the marketing activity is ensured by
regulating a lottery winning range of the two-dimensional code. Each bottle of beverage
or beer has unique identity by arranging different two-dimensional codes at the inner
side of each bottle cap, and a consumer can participate into the activity of the manufacturer
by obtaining the two-dimensional code.
Embodiment 10
[0079] As shown in FIG. 16 and FIG. 17, the present embodiment provides an injection molding
plastic bottle cap. A cap body comprises an upper cap body and a lower cap body which
are separable; and a plurality of connecting ribs is arranged between the upper cap
body and the lower cap body. The upper cap body is rotated to tear the connecting
ribs and realize separating between the upper cap body and the lower cap body. The
lower cap body is arranged at the top of a bottle body and realizes connection between
the bottle cap and the bottle body. In addition, corresponding threads are arranged
at the inner side of the upper cap body and the outer side of the bottle opening,
and sealing between the bottle cap and the bottle body is realized.
[0080] In the present embodiment, a character code information layer 23 is arranged at the
top side of the upper cap body, a two-dimensional code information layer 24 is arranged
at the inner side of the upper cap body, and information in the character code information
layer 23 and information in the two-dimensional code information layer 24 are associated
and correspond to each other. The character code information layer 23 and the two-dimensional
code information layer 24 can be shaped by injection molding together with the plastic
cap body 20, or formed on the plastic cap body 20 by a laser engraving process, etc.
[0081] The above two embodiments respectively introduce a technical solution of setting
dual identification codes on the crown cap and the separable plastic cap. Similarly,
the dual identification codes according to the present invention can be arranged on
bottle caps of other structures, for example, the dual identification codes are arranged
on a bottle cap only comprising a cylindrical cap wall and a top.
[0082] The bottle with the dual identification codes according to the present invention
is described by exampling. The character codes are arranged on the top side (external
surface) of the cap body and are used for preventing goods fleeing in a production
and selling process; and the two-dimensional code is arranged at the inner side (internal
surface) of the cap body and can be used for a consumer to participate activities
such as points accumulating and lottery drawing after the consumer damages a package.
The information in the two-dimensional code information layer and information in the
character code information layer are associated, have a unique corresponding relationship
and constitute two identification codes of the bottle cap. The two-dimensional codes
and character codes arranged on different bottle caps are different and become unique
identity of the bottle cap. By associating the character codes and the two-dimensional
codes in a production chain, normal proceeding of the marketing activities is ensured,
and the two-dimensional code is prevented from being simulated or damaged in a selling
chain.
[0083] The bottle cap according to the present invention is simple in structure and convenient
to use. The dual identifications codes are arranged on the bottle cap, thereby meeting
normal information query requirements in a production and selling process, preventing
the two-dimensional code participating in the activities from being damaged and counterfeited
in a selling process, and ensuring legal rights of a manufacturer and a consumer at
the same time.
[0084] In a fifth group of embodiments of the present invention, there is provided a bottle
cap with three identification codes.
[0085] In combination with structural schematic diagrams as shown in FIG. 18, FIG. 19 and
A-A sectional structural schematic diagrams as shown in FIG. 20, the bottle cap with
three identification codes according to the present invention comprises a cap body.
A bottom ink layer 17 and a surface ink layer 18 are upwards arranged on the top side
of the cap body in sequence, and the visible bottom ink layer 17 exposed after a partial
area of the surface ink layer 18 is removed by a laser engraving process, etc. forms
an information layer. The information layer comprises a first two-dimensional code
information layer 14 and a character code information layer 13 (refer to FIG. 18 and
FIG. 20). In order not to affect a product appearance, the bottom ink layer 17 adopts
fluorescent ink or transparent ink. In addition, a printed pattern layer (not shown
in figure) is arranged between the bottom ink layer 17 and the surface ink layer 18.
A second two-dimensional code information layer 15, an adhesive layer and a sealing
gasket 16 (see FIG. 19) are downwards arranged at the inner side of the cap body in
sequence. Information of the first two-dimensional code information layer 14, information
in the second two-dimensional code information layer 15 and information in the character
code information layer 13, which are arranged on different bottle caps are different;
the information of the first two-dimensional code information layer 14, the information
in the second two-dimensional code information layer 15 and the information in the
character code information layer 13, which are arranged on the same bottle cap correspond
to each other. Therefore, the information of the first two-dimensional code information
layer 14, the information in the second two-dimensional code information layer 15
and the information in the character code information layer 13 constitute three identification
codes of the bottle cap together.
[0086] Specifically, the bottle cap as shown in FIG. 18 and FIG. 19 is a crown cap made
of a metallic material, and a cap body comprises a top 11 and a skirt 12. The top
side of the top 11 is provided with a character code information layer 13 and a first
two-dimensional code information layer 14. The information in the character code information
layer 13 consists of letters and/or numbers which are shorter in length, thereby facilitating
recognition in a production process and realizing a faster recognition process; information
in the first two-dimensional code information layer also facilitates recognition,
and many kinds of two-dimensional code recognizers suitable for handheld use or use
of a portable terminal exist in prior art.
[0087] The character code information layer 13 consists of letters and/or numbers, and the
character code information layer 13 can be engraved in the middle of the top side
or the position close to the periphery of the top 11 by a laser engraving device and
can be engraved in one row or multiple rows. Information in the character code information
layer 13 can only comprise data characters and can further comprise data characters
and error correction characters. The error correction characters are obtained by the
data characters according to an error correction algorithm. A coding method and decoding
method for the character codes constituted by the data characters and the error correction
characters can refer to the specification disclosed in Chinese Invention Patent Application
CN201510363185.7 and is not repeated herein. The character codes with an error correction function
are used to prevent the character codes from being misread in a use process.
[0088] The first two-dimensional code information layer 14 is also engraved at the middle
of the top side or the position close to the periphery of the top 11 by a laser engraving
device. The character code information layer 13 and the first two-dimensional code
information layer 14 are arranged in different regions of the top side of the cap
body. Information in the first two-dimensional code information layer 14 and information
in the character code information layer 13 can be same. A two-dimensional code in
the first two-dimensional code information layer 14 can be a two-dimensional code
formed by coding the information in the character code information layer. The information
in the first two-dimensional code information layer 14 can also be different from
the information in the character code information layer 13.
[0089] The information in the first two-dimensional code information layer 14 and the information
in the character code information layer 13 are used for preventing goods fleeing and
source tracing querying and can also used for other purposes. When the information
in the first two-dimensional code information layer 14 and the information in the
character code information layer 13 are used for preventing goods fleeing simultaneously,
the first two-dimensional code information layer at the top side of the cap is scanned
or the information in the character code information layer is input into a query system
in a machine recognition or manual inputting manner to perform goods fleeing query
on the bottle cap, and source tracing query can also be performed. In an actual query
process, one of the manners can be selected for use, the character code or two-dimensional
code can be automatically recognized for fast query when a scanning device exists
and the character code information can be input into the query system for query when
no scanning device exists.
[0090] As shown in FIG. 19, a second two-dimensional code information layer 15 is arranged
at the inner side (internal surface) of the cap body, and the second two-dimensional
code information layer 15 can be an information layer formed by spraying a solvent
such as ink to the middle of the top 11. As the second two-dimensional code information
layer 15 is arranged at the inner side of the bottle cap and cannot be obtained by
a consumer before purchasing, the second two-dimensional code information layer 15
can be used for the consumer to participate in activities such as points integrating
and lottery drawing after the consumer damages a package, and can be used for anti-counterfeiting.
[0091] A sealing gasket 16 is commonly arranged at the inner side of the crown cap, and
the sealing gasket 16 is arranged at the surface of the second two-dimensional code
information layer 15 and an adhesive layer. The sealing gasket 16 is made of an edible
silica gel material, and is arranged to isolate the second two-dimensional code information
layer 15 from liquid in a bottle, and prevent the liquid from dissolve and damage
the second two-dimensional code information layer 15 and prevent the second two-dimensional
code information layer from polluting the liquid in the bottle. The sealing gasket
16 is usually a round transparent silica gel gasket, the upper surface of which contacts
with the adhesive layer, and the edge of the lower surface of the sealing gasket 16
has an annular groove-like structure which is matched with the top of the cap body
in size; after the bottle cap is covered, a bottle opening can be embedded into the
sealing groove of the sealing gasket 16 to isolate the liquid in the bottle from outside;
and the sealed edge of the sealing gasket is prevented from being corroded by the
liquid and from falling off.
[0092] In the bottle cap with the three identification codes according to the present invention,
information in the first two-dimensional code information layer, information in the
second two-dimensional code information layer and information in the character code
information layer are associated, have a unique corresponding relation and constitute
three identification codes. The information in the first two-dimensional code information
layer arranged on different bottle caps is different, the information in the second
two-dimensional code information layer arranged on different bottle caps is different
and the information in the character code information layer arranged on different
bottle caps is different. The character code information layer and the first two-dimensional
code information layer at the top side of the cap body can be used simultaneously
for goods fleeing prevention in a production and selling process. The bottle cap provides
two goods fleeing querying manners, automatic recognition fast query can be realized
when a scanning device exists and character code information can be manually input
into a query system for query when no scanning device exists, use is convenient, and
the bottle cap is suitable for various selling environments. The product can be subjected
to goods fleeing preventing or source tracing querying by any identification code
in the two identification codes. The second two-dimensional code information layer
arranged at the inner side of the bottle cap is used for points accumulating, lottery
drawing and other activities after a consumer damages a package and can also used
for anti-counterfeiting query. The second two-dimensional code information layer is
arranged at the inner side of the cap body, and which can prevent a second two-dimensional
code participating the activity from being damaged or counterfeited.
[0093] In addition, the information in the first two-dimensional code information layer,
the information in the second two-dimensional code information layer and the information
in the character code information layer correspond to one another and are associated,
and a production manufacturer or dealer can determine a two-dimensional code at the
inner side of the bottle cap by recognizing the character code at the outer side of
the bottle cap, thereby ensuring that the normal proceeding of the marketing activity
is ensured by regulating a lottery winning range of the two-dimensional code. Each
bottle of beverage or beer has unique identity by arranging different two-dimensional
codes at the inner side of each bottle cap, and a consumer can participate into the
activity of the manufacturer by obtaining the two-dimensional code.
[0094] Therefore, the three identification codes are arranged on the bottle cap, thereby
meeting the normal information query requirements in a production and selling process,
preventing the two-dimensional code participating in the activity from being damaged
or counterfeited in a selling process and ensuring legal rights of the manufacturer
and the consumer. In addition, the bottle cap provides two goods fleeing query manners,
automatic fast query can be performed when a scanning device exists, and character
code information can be manually input into the query system for query when no scanning
device exists, and use is convenient.
[0095] The crown cap with three identification codes is introduced in above embodiment.
The three identification codes according to the present invention can be arranged
on a bottle cap of other structures, for example, the three identification codes are
arranged on an injection molding bottle cap only comprising a cylindrical cap wall
and a top.
[0096] According to the bottle cap with three identification codes according to the invention,
the character code information layer and the first two-dimensional code information
layer are arranged at the top side (external surface) and are used for preventing
goods fleeing in a production and selling process, the information in the first two-dimensional
code information layer and the information in the character code information layer
can be same or different; the second two-dimensional code information layer is arranged
at the inner side (internal surface) and is used for the consumer to participate in
points accumulating, lottery drawing and other activities after the consumer damages
the package. The information in the first two-dimensional code information layer,
the information in the second two-dimensional code information layer and the information
in the character code information layer are associated, have a corresponding relation
and constitute three identification codes. The first two-dimensional code information
layer at the top side of the cap body is scanned or the information in the character
code information layer is input into a query system to perform goods fleeing query
on the bottle cap and source tracing query can also be performed, and by scanning
the second two-dimensional code information layer at the inner side of the bottle
cap, the consumer can participate in the activities and can perform anti-counterfeiting
query.
[0097] The bottle cap according to the present invention is simple in structure and convenient
to use, and in addition, the three identifications codes are arranged on the bottle
cap, thereby meeting normal information query requirements in a production and selling
process, preventing the two-dimensional code participating in the activities from
being damaged and counterfeited in a selling process and ensuring legal rights of
a manufacturer and a consumer at the same time. In addition, the bottle cap provides
two goods fleeing query manners, automatic fast query can be performed when a scanning
device exists, and character code information can be manually input into the query
system for query when no scanning device exists, and use is convenient.
[0098] A sixth group of embodiments of the present invention provides a bottle with dual
two-dimensional code information layers.
[0099] It can be known from structural schematic diagram as shown in FIG. 21, FIG. 22 and
an A-A sectional structural schematic diagram as shown in FIG. 23, the bottle cap
with the dual two-dimensional code information layers comprises a cap body. A bottom
ink layer 17 and a surface ink layer 18 are upwards arranged at the top side of the
cap body in sequence, and the visible bottom ink layer 17 exposed after a partial
area of the surface ink layer 18 is removed by a laser engraving process forms a first
two-dimensional code information layer 13. In addition, the visible bottom ink layer
17 exposed after a partial area of the surface ink layer 18 is removed by a laser
engraving process forms a character code information layer (not shown in the figure),
and the character code information layer and the first two-dimensional code information
layer can be arranged at different regions of the top of the cap body and can also
be arranged at the same side region of the top of the cap body. By changing a path
of laser engraving, the first two-dimensional code information layer 13 and the character
code information layer containing different pieces of information can be formed. In
order not to affect a product appearance, the bottom ink layer 17 adopts fluorescent
ink or transparent ink. In addition, a printed pattern layer is arranged between the
bottom ink layer 17 and the surface ink layer 18 (not shown in figure). The first
two-dimensional code information layer 13, the character code information layer and
the printed pattern layer can be positioned in different regions of the cap body;
or one of the first two-dimensional code information layer 13 and the character code
information layer, and the printed pattern layer are positioned in the same region,
and the other one of the first two-dimensional code information layer 13 and the character
code information layer is positioned in the other side region. When the first two-dimensional
code information layer 13 and the character code information layer and the printed
pattern layer are positioned in the same region, the first two-dimensional code information
layer 13 and the character code information layer can be overlapped.
[0100] A second two-dimensional code information layer 15, an adhesive layer and a sealing
gasket 16 are downwards arranged at the inner side of the cap body (refer to FIG.
22). Information in the first two-dimensional code information layer 13, the second
two-dimensional code information layer 15 and the character code information layer,
which are arranged at different bottles caps are different; in addition, the information
in the first two-dimensional code information layer 13, the second two-dimensional
code information layer 15 and the character code information layer, which are arranged
at the same bottle cap are in unique correspondence; and the information in the first
two-dimensional code information layer 13, the second two-dimensional code information
layer 15 and the character code information layer constitute multiple identification
codes of the bottle cap.
[0101] Specifically, the bottle cap as shown in FIG. 21 and FIG. 22 is a crown cap made
of a metallic material, the cap body comprises a top 11 and a skirt 12, the top side
of top 11 is provided with the first two-dimensional code information layer 13. The
first two-dimensional code information layer 13 is engraved at the middle of the top
side or a position close to the periphery of the top 11 with a laser engraving device.
The area of the first two-dimensional code information layer 13 to the total area
of the cap body is not smaller than 10%, and more preferably between 13-20%, thereby
ensuring effective recognition on the first two-dimensional code information layer
13. The information in the first two-dimensional code information layer 13 can be
fast recognized by many kinds of two-dimensional code recognizers suitable for handheld
use or use of a portable terminal exist in prior art. By scanning the first two-dimensional
code information layer 13 at the top side of the cap body, the bottle cap can be subjected
to goods fleeing query, and source tracing query can also be performed.
[0102] As shown in FIG. 22, the second two-dimensional code information layer 15 is arranged
at the inner side (internal surface) of the cap body and can be an information layer
formed by spraying a solvent such as ink to the middle of the inner side of the top
11. The second two-dimensional code information layer 15 is arranged at the inner
side of the bottle cap and thus cannot be obtained by a consumer before purchasing,
so the second two-dimensional code information layer 15 can be used for the consumer
to participate in activities such as points integrating and lottery drawing after
the consumer damages a package and can be used for anti-counterfeiting. The information
in the second two-dimensional code information layer 15 and the information in the
first two-dimensional code information layer 13 are different. The variety of two-dimensional
codes used by the second two-dimensional code information layer 15 and the first two-dimensional
code information layer 13 can be same or different. For example, the first two-dimensional
code information layer 13 uses a DM code, and the second two-dimensional code information
layer 15 uses a QR code.
[0103] A sealing gasket 16 is usually arranged at the inner side of the crown cap and is
arranged at the surface of the adhesive layer and the second two-dimensional code
information layer 15. The sealing gasket 16 is made of an edible silica gel material
and is arranged to isolate the second two-dimensional code information layer 15 from
the liquid in a bottle, the second two-dimensional code information layer 15 is prevented
from being dissolved and damaged by liquid, and the second two-dimensional code information
layer 15 is prevented from polluting the liquid in the bottle. The sealing gasket
16 is usually a round transparent silica gel gasket and contacts with the adhesive
layer with the upper surface. The edge of the lower surface of the sealing gasket
16 has an annular groovy structure, which is matched with the top of the cap body
in size; when the bottle cap is covered, a bottle opening can be embedded into a sealing
groove of the sealing gasket 16 to isolate liquid in the bottle from outside; and
the sealing edge of the sealing gasket is prevented from being corroded by liquid
and from falling off.
[0104] In addition, a character code information layer is arranged at the top side of the
cap body. The first two-dimensional code information layer 13 and the character code
information layer are arranged in different regions or same region of the top side
of the cap body. Information in the first two-dimensional code information layer 13
and information in the character code information layer can be same. A two-dimensional
code in the first two-dimensional code information layer 13 can be a two-dimensional
code by coding the information in the character code information layer. The information
in the first two-dimensional code information layer 13 and the information in the
character code information layer can be different.
[0105] The information in the first two-dimensional code information layer 13 and the information
in the character code information layer are used for preventing goods fleeing and
source tracing querying and can also used for other purposes. When the information
in the first two-dimensional code information layer 13 and the information in the
character code information layer are used for preventing goods fleeing simultaneously,
the first two-dimensional code information layer at the top side of the cap is scanned
or the information in the character code information layer is input into a query system
in a machine recognition or manual inputting manner to perform goods fleeing query
on the bottle cap and of course, source tracing query can also be performed. In an
actual query process, one of the manners can be selected for use, the character code
or two-dimensional code can be automatically recognized for fast query when a scanning
device exists and the character code information can be input into the query system
for query when no scanning device exists.
[0106] The character code information layer consists of letters and/or numbers, and the
character code information layer can be engraved in the middle of the top side or
the position close to the periphery of the top 11 by a laser engraving device and
can be engraved in one row or multiple rows. Information in the character code information
layer is shorter in length, thereby facilitating recognition in a production process
and realizing a faster recognition speed. The information in the character code information
layer 13 can only comprise data characters and can further comprise data characters
and error correction characters. The error correction characters are obtained by the
data characters according to an error correction algorithm. A coding method and decoding
method for the character codes constituted by the data characters and the error correction
characters can refer to the specification disclosed in Chinese Invention Patent Application
CN201510363185.7 and is not repeated herein. The character codes with an error correction function
are used to prevent the character codes from being misread in a use process.
[0107] In the bottle cap with the multiple two-dimensional code information layers according
to the present invention, information in the first two-dimensional code information
layer, information in the second two-dimensional code information layer and information
in the character code information layer are associated, have a unique corresponding
relation and constitute three identification codes. The information in the first two-dimensional
code information layer arranged on different bottle caps is different, the information
in the second two-dimensional code information layer arranged on different bottle
caps is different and the information in the character code information layer arranged
on different bottle caps is different. The character code information layer at the
top side of the cap body and the first two-dimensional code information layer can
