Abstract

A sealing cap with an anti-counterfeit and identification capability comprises a cap body, an identification chip with a signal emitting device generating an identification signal, and a destructive device, characterized in that the cap body is electrically connected with the signal generating device and serves as an antenna of a relatively large area and in that the destructive device after dismounting of the cap destroys the capability to emit radiation and thus prevents said identifying chip from being dismounted and reused.
