OVERCAP FOR SUPPORTING AN ELECTRONIC TAG TO A BOTTLE CAP

摘要

An overcap is provided for placement on a cap for a container. The overcap includes a pair of mating components separated by a hinge. Interlocking means is provided for securing the components together about the cap. The interlocking means couples the components for rotation about the cap without causing removable rotation of the cap and preventing non-destructible detachment of the components. The components define a lip for positioning beneath the cap for preventing removal of the overcap therefrom without destructible detachment of the components. The overcap supports an electronic tag therein. The mating components of the overcap include a severable location for removing the overcap from the cap.
