Detailed Description

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

Fig. 1 shows a flowchart of a method for authenticating a timepiece according to an embodiment of the invention. As shown in fig. 1, the method includes:

step 101: the method comprises the steps of collecting visual characteristics of the clock to be authenticated, wherein the visual characteristics comprise: trademark characteristics, identification characteristics, movement characteristics, appearance characteristics, and sanding characteristics.

In the embodiment of the invention, the clock needing to be identified as true or false is called a clock to be identified; for example, the watch to be authenticated may be a watch for post-purchase inspection by a consumer, or may be a watch for pre-sale inspection by a retailer; in general, the timepiece to be authenticated may be a brand clock, a watch, which has already formed a sufficiently active market, has a high value, and has a certain degree of awareness.

In the embodiment of the invention, the watch to be authenticated is authenticated by utilizing the visual characteristics of the watch to be authenticated. The visual feature refers to a visual feature that can be visually observed; the observation may be performed directly or by means of an existing optical element (for example, a magnifying glass). Accordingly, the acquisition of visual features can be achieved by means of a device capable of acquiring visual features; for example, the visual characteristics of the timepiece to be authenticated may be acquired by an image acquisition device (for example a camera or the like).

In order to comprehensively identify the clock to be identified, the visual features in the embodiment of the invention at least comprise trademark features, identification features, movement features, appearance features and polishing features of the clock to be identified. Trademark characteristics refer to brand trademark patterns produced on the surface of a timepiece, issued by a brand manufacturer/trademark rights, and generally include graphics, letters, numbers, colors, etc., or combinations thereof. The identification features refer to a pattern made on the surface of the timepiece, in addition to the brand pattern, and generally include graphics, letters, numbers, symbols, colors, etc., or combinations thereof. Movement characteristics refer to characteristics related to the shape and position of the timepiece movement parts. The appearance features refer to features which can be represented by appearance parts such as a watchcase and a watchband of the timepiece to be identified, and can be generally and directly observed. The polishing feature refers to a feature formed by performing an exquisite polishing treatment on the surface of the timepiece during the manufacturing process.

The movement is heart of the watch, is also the essence of brand name watch design and manufacture, and the movement structural design is a patent of the brand name watch and also represents the level of technology and manufacturing technology thereof; the movement is originally the place which is least easy to imitate by counterfeiters. However, because the technical difficulty of the movement design is high, besides the name list manufactured by an independent tabulating person, in the brand name list sold in the market, the movement varieties corresponding to the name list with the same brand type are relatively less or very single; in addition, in order to meet the personalized demands of consumers, brand manufacturers design universal interfaces between the machine core and the appearance piece, and the machine core and the appearance piece can be matched at will as long as the interfaces are consistent. Although the movement is difficult to imitate, with the continuous improvement of the manufacturing technology level, the appearance part can be imitated to be fake; in other cases, the appearance part is a wearing part, and can be independently ordered to the manufacturer; in addition, the movement is arranged in the appearance part and is not generally visible, and some fake making and counterfeiters just use the characteristics and use the real or highly imitated appearance part to match with the fake movement for counterfeiting, so that the fake watch manufactured by the fake making mode occupies a larger proportion at present, and the movement counterfeiting is the most common fake making mode of counterfeiters. The embodiment of the invention carries out the authentication of the clock based on the movement characteristics, and can realize more accurate authentication.

Step 102: collecting non-visual features of the timepiece to be authenticated, the non-visual features comprising: functional features and material element features.

In an embodiment of the invention, the timepiece to be authenticated is also authenticated based on the non-visual characteristics of the timepiece to be authenticated. Corresponding to the visual features described above, the non-visual features refer to features that are not visually observable or that are not observable by means of vision alone. Wherein the functional feature refers to a function of the timepiece to be authenticated, such as whether a time zone can be displayed, whether an alarm clock function is provided, and the like; the characteristic of the material element refers to the characteristic of the material element used for the timepiece to be identified, such as the type of material element, purity, etc.

Step 103: the visual characteristics and the non-visual characteristics of the clocks to be identified are compared with the corresponding characteristics of standard clocks in a pre-established database, and the standard clocks and the clocks to be identified are genuine clocks with the same brand and model.

In the embodiment of the invention, a database containing a plurality of genuine clock characteristics is established in advance, and the characteristics of each genuine clock are stored independently according to brands and models. When the true or false of the clock to be authenticated needs to be authenticated, the genuine clock with the same brand and model can be searched in the database based on the brand and model of the clock to be authenticated, and the genuine clock with the same brand and model is called as a standard clock, and whether the characteristics (including the visible characteristics and the invisible characteristics) of the clock to be authenticated are consistent with the characteristics of the standard clock or not is determined by taking the standard clock as a comparison reference.

Wherein, the public information of each brand type clock can be collected to form the database. For example, by means of a network information platform, information already known by brand clock manufacturers can be collected in detail, and visual features and non-visual features of genuine clocks are extracted from the information, so that a database containing a plurality of genuine clock features is built; for example, public information can be obtained from publicity materials such as the office website of the clock manufacturer and the "product album" issued by the office website, and related information of the brand name table can be sold by collecting the genuine products channel of the authorized dealer. And, the data in the database may be of a certain scale to be able to adapt to the scenarios of various horology. For example, the database includes data of more than 50 clock brands and more than 2000 model series specifications. The database containing the brand clock characteristics lays a high-precision and high-reliability foundation for true and false identification.

Step 104: in the event that the characteristics of the timepiece to be authenticated are identical to those of a standard timepiece, it is determined that the timepiece to be authenticated is authentic.

In the embodiment of the invention, if the characteristics of the clock to be authenticated are consistent with those of the standard clock, that is, the characteristics of the clock to be authenticated are consistent with those of the standard clock, the clock to be authenticated can be considered to be a genuine clock, and the true and false authentication result is true. Conversely, if at least one characteristic of the timepiece to be authenticated does not coincide with the corresponding characteristic of the standard timepiece, the timepiece to be authenticated can be considered as a fake timepiece, the true and false authentication result of which is false; wherein, the accuracy of the identification can be improved by combining a manual review mode. For example, if 1 to 3 features of the timepiece to be authenticated are inconsistent with the corresponding features of the standard timepiece, the timepiece to be authenticated may be tentatively suspected, and then whether the timepiece to be authenticated is an authentic timepiece may be further determined by means of manual review; if the characteristics of 3 or more clocks to be identified are not identical to the corresponding characteristics of the standard clock, it can be directly considered as a counterfeited clock.

Optionally, in order to trace the authentication result later, the method provided by the embodiment of the invention further includes: the acquired visual characteristics and non-visual characteristics of the clocks to be authenticated are stored, and the authentication result of the clocks to be authenticated is stored. In the embodiment of the invention, after the identification result (whether the identification result is true or false) of the clock to be identified is determined, the visual characteristics, the non-visual characteristics and the identification result of the clock to be identified can be stored, so that the follow-up tracing is convenient. For example, visual features, non-visual features may be recorded in raw record tables and pictures, and the authentication results (e.g., authentication reports) and corresponding raw record tables and pictures are archived by the inspection and detection facility for at least 6 years.

According to the method for identifying the authenticity of the clock, provided by the embodiment of the invention, the characteristics of the clock are described from at least seven dimensions of the trademark, the mark, the appearance, the function, the movement, the polishing, the texture element characteristics and the like of the clock to be identified, so that the whole body image of the clock can be more accurately reflected, comprehensive information is provided for identifying the authenticity, and the authenticity identification can be more accurately realized; in addition, the clock is identified based on the identification, the material and the characteristics of the clock inner movement, so that the manufacturing cost position of a counterfeiter can be hit with greater probability, and the authenticity of the clock can be accurately and reliably identified.

Optionally, the trademark and the like of the clock can be detected by the traditional clock true and false identification mode, but the granularity of detection is not fine. In the embodiment of the present invention, the step 101 of "acquiring the visual characteristics of the timepiece to be authenticated" includes the following steps A1-A2:

step A1: collecting macroscopic visual characteristics of the clock to be identified in a macroscopic collection mode, wherein the macroscopic visual characteristics comprise: macroscopic trademark features, macroscopic logo features, macroscopic movement features, and appearance features.

Step A2: the method comprises the steps of collecting microscopic visual characteristics of the clock to be identified in a microscopic collection mode, wherein the microscopic visual characteristics comprise: microcosmic trademark characteristics, microcosmic identification characteristics, microcosmic movement characteristics and polishing characteristics.

In the embodiment of the invention, visual characteristics are acquired from different granularities in a macroscopic acquisition and microscopic acquisition mode. Wherein the macro-acquisition refers to the acquisition as a whole, the visual features acquired by which are called macro-visual features capable of representing as a whole the features of the timepiece to be authenticated, such as the macro-features of a trademark, a logo, a movement, etc. The microscopic acquisition refers to the acquisition of details of the timepiece to be authenticated, the visual features acquired of which are called microscopic visual features, which can represent the detailed features of the timepiece to be authenticated, such as those of a trademark, a logo, a movement, etc.

The appearance features are generally only needed by a macroscopic acquisition mode, namely, only macroscopic detection is needed for the appearance; however, the polishing feature is generally easy to identify under microscopic observation, so that only a microscopic acquisition mode is required to acquire the polishing feature, namely only microscopic detection is required to be carried out on polishing. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the appearance feature may be acquired in a microscopic acquisition mode and the grinding feature may be acquired in a macroscopic acquisition mode, if desired, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto.

Optionally, the "macro acquisition mode" in the step A1 specifically includes:

step A11: under the illumination condition that the illuminance is not lower than 500Lx, collecting the clock to be identified at a preset distance from the clock to be identified in a mode of direct collection or collection through a first optical amplifying device; the preset distance is 20-30 cm.

The "mode of micro-acquisition" in the above step A2 specifically includes:

step A12: under the illumination condition that the illumination is not lower than 500Lx, the second optical amplifying device is used for collecting the light.

In the embodiment of the invention, the visual characteristics are collected under the illumination condition that the illumination is not lower than 500Lx (lux, illumination unit); macroscopic and microscopic acquisitions are achieved by whether optical magnification devices (e.g., magnifiers) are used, or by using optical magnification devices of different magnification. When the macroscopic visual characteristics are collected, the distance between the collecting device and the clock to be identified is 20-30 cm, so that the macroscopic visual characteristics can be comprehensively and accurately collected.

In the embodiment of the invention, macroscopic visual characteristics can be directly acquired without an optical amplifying device, and the acquisition can be performed through the first optical amplifying device, namely, the first optical amplifying device is arranged between the acquisition device and the clock to be identified, so that the acquisition of the macroscopic visual characteristics is realized. In the case of the acquisition of microscopic visual features, it is necessary to acquire them by means of a second optical amplifying device with a large magnification, i.e. arranged between the acquisition device and the timepiece to be identified, so as to acquire the microscopic visual features. When the microscopic visual features are acquired, the microscopic acquisition can be performed at a preset distance from the clock to be identified.

In the embodiment of the invention, the amplification factor of the first optical amplifying device is smaller than that of the second optical amplifying device. Optionally, the magnification of the first optical amplifying device is less than or equal to 5 times, for example 3 times; the magnification of the second optical amplifying device is 20 to 40 times, for example, 30 times, 40 times, or the like.

In the embodiment of the invention, the visual characteristics of the clock to be identified can be comprehensively acquired by utilizing the optical amplifying devices with different amplification factors. Wherein, in the case of microscopic acquisition, a second optical amplifying device with a larger magnification, for example, a magnification of more than 20 times, is needed; also, because of the limited manufacturing process of the timepiece, there are engineering defects during the manufacturing process, which are allowed, and if a second optical amplifying device with an excessive magnification is used, these allowed manufacturing defects are amplified, resulting in authentication errors. It is verified that when the magnification is less than 40 times, the influence of the engineering defect is small, so the optical amplifying device with the magnification less than 40 times is adopted as the second optical amplifying device in the embodiment. For example, the first optical amplifying device may be a magnifying glass conventionally fabricated by a convex lens, and the second optical amplifying device may be a double tube microscope or the like.

In the embodiment of the invention, the visual characteristics can be acquired in multiple aspects by combining macroscopic detection and microscopic detection, and the detection granularity of the visual characteristics can be improved. The visual characteristics are collected at the preset distance, so that the collected characteristics can be ensured to have unified standards, and the subsequent comparison is convenient; and the magnification of the second optical amplifying device is 20-40 times, so that not only can microcosmic detail characteristics be better collected, but also the defects of amplifying engineering can be avoided, and the accuracy of identification can be ensured.

Optionally, the above step 101 "acquisition of the visual characteristics of the timepiece to be authenticated" may comprise the following steps B1-B3:

step B1: and collecting trademark characteristics, identification characteristics and polishing characteristics of the clock to be identified in the state that the clock to be identified is not decomposed and is decomposed.

Step B2: and collecting the appearance characteristics of the clock to be identified in the state that the clock to be identified is not decomposed.

Step B3: and in the state that the clock to be identified is decomposed, the movement characteristics of the clock to be identified are collected.

In the embodiment of the invention, in order to conveniently collect the characteristics (namely the movement characteristics) of the movement in the clock to be identified, the clock to be identified can be disassembled, and the movement characteristics in the clock to be identified can be conveniently checked through the disassembly; and also to collect part of the visual characteristics of the timepiece interior to be authenticated. For example, when the timepiece to be authenticated is not decomposed (i.e., the timepiece to be authenticated is in an uncleaved state), the appearance characteristics of the timepiece to be authenticated, as well as part of the brand characteristics, the logo characteristics, and the grinding characteristics, such as the brand characteristics, the logo characteristics, and the grinding characteristics of the appearance piece, may be collected; after the timepiece to be authenticated is disassembled (i.e., the timepiece to be authenticated is in a disassembled state), the movement features of the timepiece to be authenticated, as well as other parts of the brand features, the logo features and the grinding features, such as those made in the inner member, are collected; the inner part comprises the surface of the movement part and also can comprise the inner side of the rear cover and the like. In general, only the trademark, the identification and the polishing characteristics of the movement need to be collected.

Optionally, the trademark feature comprises: a brand pattern of the outer part and a brand pattern of the inner part, the inner part comprising the movement.

The identification feature comprises: the identification pattern of the outer part and the identification pattern of the inner part.

The movement features include: the machine core model and the machine core structure.

The appearance features include: at least one of shape, size, component connection mode, color, inlay parameters, and material appearance characteristics.

The sanding feature includes: the outer part and the inner part are ground.

In the embodiment of the invention, the outer surface of the clock and the inner part (such as a movement and the like) are engraved with trademarks and marks, so that the patterns on the outer part and the inner part are collected to obtain complete trademark characteristics and mark characteristics; when patterns on the appearance piece and the inner part are collected, trademark characteristics and identification characteristics can be collected based on a combination mode of macroscopic collection and microscopic collection.

After the clock to be identified is decomposed, the model and the structural characteristics of the movement can be acquired. Wherein, the core model refers to: the code of the movement structure formed by letters and numbers is usually manufactured at a specific position of the movement part by a manufacturer, and each movement structure corresponds to one movement model; the movement structure includes: the arrangement and combination modes of a driving system, a transmission system, an escapement speed regulation system, a pointer system, a winding pointer system, a clamping plate screw system, an additional mechanism, a circuit of a quartz watch, a battery and the like of the mechanical watch. Optionally, in order to facilitate uniform and accurate comparison of the movement structure, the embodiment of the present invention divides the mechanical structure into a plurality of items, and specifically, the movement structure includes: at least one of the size of the movement, the time reference, the form of the transmission mechanism, the energy classification and the display mode; each item corresponds to a movement structure feature, which allows the movement structure to be compared in units of the item when comparing the timepiece to be authenticated with a standard timepiece. The specific classification of each item of the movement structure can be seen in the following table 1:

TABLE 1

The appearance characteristics of the timepiece to be authenticated can represent the appearance shape and structure of the timepiece to be authenticated, and the shape, size, component connection mode, color, inlay parameters and material appearance characteristics specifically include:

1) Shape: including but not limited to: square, round, arched, barrel, hemispherical, and irregular.

2) Size of: a measurable physical size; may be measured using calipers.

3) The component connection mode is as follows: the connection mode between the components.

4) Color: including but not limited to: single color, double color, gradual color change, multiple colors.

5) Inlay parameters: including the type, number and location of the inlay.

6) Material appearance characteristics: visual characteristics of materials used for the clock (including clock body materials and inlays); such as metallic luster, cranny with a stone setting, etc.

Furthermore, the exterior and interior parts of the timepiece (e.g., the movement) are typically polished, leaving a polishing trace, which is used as a polishing feature in this embodiment. Optionally, the grinding trace includes: the pattern (including solar tile pattern, fish scale pattern, sand drawing, etc.), chamfering (or chamfering), polishing, carving (such as pattern, characters, figures, etc.). Optionally, the sanding location may also be used as a sanding feature.

On the basis of any one of the above embodiments, the functional features include a travel time quality feature and an additional feature; the process of acquiring the non-visual features in step 102 includes: collecting the functional characteristics of the timepiece to be authenticated, and "collecting the functional characteristics of the timepiece to be authenticated" comprises the following steps C1-C2:

step C1: the method comprises the steps of enabling a clock to be identified with normal power to be static in a laboratory environment for a preset period of time, measuring the instantaneous daily difference of the clock to be identified based on a clock comprehensive tester, and determining the travel time quality characteristics of the clock to be identified; the preset time period is greater than or equal to one hour.

In the embodiment of the invention, when the travel time quality characteristics of the clock to be identified are acquired, the power of the clock to be identified needs to be ensured to be normal, namely the clock can travel time normally. For example, if the timepiece to be identified is a mechanical timepiece, its spring power should be sufficient, for example full string; if the timepiece to be authenticated is a quartz watch, the battery capacity thereof should be sufficient, for example, a new battery is replaced, etc., to ensure that the timepiece to be authenticated is powered normally. After the timepiece to be authenticated is stationary for a certain period of time (for example, more than one hour) and is in stable operation, the instantaneous day difference can be measured, and the instantaneous day difference is taken as the travel time quality characteristic of the timepiece to be authenticated. In addition, the swing amplitude and the vibration frequency can be used as the travel time quality characteristics.

For example, if the timepiece to be authenticated is a mechanical timepiece, the mechanical timepiece integrated tester may be used to measure the instantaneous daily differences and the 6-way swings of the positions on the surface and on the 6-way; if the clock to be identified is a quartz watch, the quartz watch comprehensive tester can be used for measuring the instantaneous daily difference.

Step C2: collecting additional features of the timepiece to be authenticated, the additional features comprising: at least one of a display mode, an energy classification, an environment suitability classification, a calendar mode, a time zone display mode and a ringing mode.

The complicated function identification of the clock is also a challenge for a real appraiser due to the complicated clock function; according to the embodiment of the invention, the functional characteristics of the clock are classified according to different items, and the different functional items are used as checking items for identifying the authenticity of the clock, so that the authenticity of the clock can be identified conveniently. The present embodiment refers to functional features other than the travel time function as additional features, which may include: at least one of a display mode, an energy classification, an environment suitability classification, a calendar mode, a time zone display mode and a ringing mode. Specifically, the functions of the various items are shown in Table 2 below.

TABLE 2

Wherein, part of the additional features are determined by the functions of the movement, and corresponding functional features (additional features) can be determined by collecting the features of the movement, such as display modes, energy classification and the like; however, since these features mainly represent the function of the timepiece and some of them need to be pressed to be revealed, this embodiment still classifies them as invisible.

Those skilled in the art will understand that the feature division manner adopted in the embodiment of the present invention is only one manner, and even if other division manners are adopted, implementation of the embodiment is not affected. For example, classifying the additional features as visual features (e.g., as movement features) or not classifying the features of the timepiece according to whether it is visual, does not affect the authentication of the timepiece to be authenticated based on the acquired trademark features, logo features, movement features, appearance features, grinding features, functional features, material element features, etc.

Optionally, the process of acquiring the non-visual features in step 102 includes: collecting the material element characteristics of the timepiece to be authenticated, and the "collecting the material element characteristics of the timepiece to be authenticated" includes:

step D1: and measuring the element components of the appearance piece and/or the inlay of the clock to be identified based on a spectrometer to determine the element types and the purities so as to generate the material element characteristics.

In the embodiment of the invention, the materials of the clock to be identified comprise the materials used for the parts such as appearance parts, automatic hammers, upper clamping plates, dial plates and the like, and the materials are generally noble metals or precious stones. The embodiment of the invention utilizes a spectrum inspection method to screen the material of the watch case. For example, the surface of the noble metal is excited by X-rays and emits characteristic X-ray fluorescence spectrum, according to the characteristic spectrum, the qualitative analysis of the noble metal material can be performed by using an X-ray fluorescence spectrum analyzer, and the names and the content of elements can be obtained based on trace element curves displayed on a spectrometer screen, so that the types and the purity of the elements can be determined.

In the embodiment of the invention, the visual characteristics can be represented in the form of images; therefore, a model (for example, a classification model, etc.) for judging whether the two images are identical can be established in advance, whether the image of a certain feature of the timepiece to be identified is identical to the image of the corresponding feature of the standard timepiece is compared by the model, and if the two images are identical, it can be stated that the feature of the timepiece to be identified is identical to the feature of the standard timepiece; the remaining visual features can also be aligned in the same manner.

For the invisible characteristics, the embodiment of the invention quantifies the invisible characteristics according to different projects so as to conveniently compare the clock to be identified with the standard clock, the comparison process is more standardized, and the influence of human factors can be effectively reduced. For example, as shown in table 2, the display modes may be divided into two types, i.e., a pointer type and a digital type, and if the display modes of the timepiece to be identified and the standard timepiece are both pointer type, the display modes of the two types are considered to be identical; for the material element characteristics, if the elements at the same part of the clock to be identified and the standard clock are the same in kind and the purity difference is within a preset range, the material element characteristics of the clock to be identified and the standard clock are considered to be identical.

Optionally, the method further comprises: after the characteristic that the clock to be identified is in the decomposition state is collected, the clock to be identified is restored, and whether the functional characteristic of the clock to be identified is abnormal is retested.

In the embodiment of the invention, after the clock to be identified is decomposed and the decomposed characteristics are collected, for example, after the movement characteristics, trademark characteristics, identification characteristics and polishing characteristics of the internal parts are collected, the clock to be identified needs to be restored; and retesting whether the functional characteristics of the recovered clocks to be identified are normal. For example, whether the mechanical clock to be identified has normal functional characteristics such as swing, vibration frequency, instantaneous daily difference on the surface and the like in the full string state is tested.

Further optionally, the method further comprises: setting a code for the clock to be authenticated, wherein the code comprises an authentication commission unit identification number and a sequence number; each visual and non-visual feature of the timepiece to be authenticated is provided with this code.

In the embodiment of the invention, in order to conveniently distinguish different clocks to be authenticated, a unique code needs to be arranged for the clocks to be authenticated, and the code comprises an authentication commission unit identification number and a sequence number. For example, if the authentication commission unit identification number is 1234 and the sequence number is 001, then the code may be represented as 1234001. And, when each feature of the timepiece to be authenticated is acquired, it is necessary to add the code to that feature. For example, a paper label can be hung for the timepiece to be authenticated, the label having a unique code number thereon; when the visual characteristics are collected, the tag can be placed in the view finding range of the collecting device, so that the tag and the clock to be identified are put into the frame together, and the visual characteristics with codes can be collected. Alternatively, the code may be added in the form of a watermark by adding a watermark to the visual features, which is not limited in this embodiment.

The flow of the method is described in detail below by way of one embodiment.

In the embodiment of the invention, the characteristics of the clock to be identified are comprehensively collected from seven dimensions of trademark, logo, appearance, function, movement, polishing, material and the like by means of five modes of macroscopic inspection, microscopic inspection, functional inspection, decomposition inspection and spectrum inspection. Devices that need to be used in the authentication process include, but are not limited to: a light source with illuminance not lower than 500Lx, a 3-time magnifying glass, a 40-time micro-mirror, a caliper, a clock comprehensive tester, a spectrometer, a camera and the like. Referring to fig. 2, the method includes:
