Description

The The invention relates to a method for producing a laminate for a pass-inlay according to the preamble of claim 1 and a thereby produced ID Card.

tamper and especially machine-readable identification documents are above all in terms of safety aspects very beneficial. For reading The data is used in the documents known from the prior art on a visually readable font with the data of the cardholder resorted the following in a safety database with the data stored there become.

such ID documents, however, only allow reading of data from the document, but no writing or changing the data on the document too, so that every reading at each relevant terminal with a data comparison on a sometimes very remote localized central server is connected. This is for example in the review of Criminal or death records, for example, in demand to the present Score of a road user very disadvantageous, because the Document of the road user himself does not have such data because the document is not for a data storage is designed.

to Storage of data or for identification of a user are in particular chip or magnetic cards known. These consist e.g. from a laminate composite, in which essentially two plastic discs a chip module and / or an antenna device sandwich, in particular the chip module fixed and insoluble in the card body thus formed is integrated.

such Chip cards can however for ID documents, such as passports, not so readily used, provided that the manufacturing devices, for example Printing or binding machines, on the processing of paper or Tissues, or the use of paper or fabric for the Identity document is required.

It thus results in the task of a method for producing a Laminate for to specify a passport inlay in an identity document, with the help of which it possible is, pass-inlays also in paper or fabric processing production lines to establish the identity documents.

Farther results in the task of specifying an identity document, the one simple and inexpensive Data storage combined with a simple way of data transmission and the largest possible counterfeit protection of the document and which contains such a pass-inlay

These The object is achieved with a method for producing a laminate for a Pass-inlay solved according to the features of claim 1, wherein the dependent claims expedient expansions and embodiments included. Regarding the device aspect The task is accomplished by an identity document with the characteristics of the Claim 4 solved, the dependent claims this expedient expansions and embodiments.

The Process for producing a paper processable Laminate for a pass-inlay is according to the invention by characterized in that an intermediate product is manufactured, wherein a Laminating a flat Prelaminate during the lamination process with a fibrous and / or tissue material accomplished becomes.

It Thus, the prelaminates are preferably sandwiched on both sides laminated, which is a chip module or the antenna device between them. The intermediate product thus has a fibrous or tissue surface, so that the laminate subsequently in appropriately designed production facilities processed, e.g. can be printed or bound.

at a first embodiment of the process becomes a fibrous coating a paper material laminated. This allows the finished laminate in paper processing Devices are processed further.

at a further embodiment a fabric material is laminated as a woven coating. The laminate receives Thus, the texture of a very strong fabric, in principle like a plan or guided Fabric can be treated.

following become exemplary embodiments an identification document or a semi-finished product for production an identification document.

It is mainly based on two basic variants. In the first embodiment, the laminate body is integrated into a lid main body of the identification document. This embodiment is particularly useful in 1 described. In the second embodiment, the laminate body itself forms the lid main body. This embodiment is particularly in 2 shown.

Of the laminate body can in both embodiments laminated with a paper or fabric layer and therefore as a be laminated intermediate product formed. Covered either the lamination of the lid, the lamination of the laminate body or the lamination of the laminate body at the same time forms the lamination of the cover of the identity document.

This in 1 The exemplary identification document illustrated has an arrangement, which is integrated into the region of the back and / or lid of the identification document, of an electronic data carrier in conjunction with an antenna device for contactless data transmission. Both the antenna device and the electronic data carrier are introduced into a laminate body. Alternatively, it is of course also possible to form only a conductive fabric or knitted fabric as a kind of "electronic joint" in the area of the back

By the laminate body is thus in the identity document a data storage, in particular a Memory chip, and an antenna device inserted, the with the body of the document, an insoluble one Form unity. This can only be done by destroying the identity document from each other be separated and is thus largely forgery-proof.

At the in 1 illustrated embodiment, the electronic data carrier and / or the antenna device as a in the back and / or cover insoluble introduced, in particular sewn, laminate body with einlaminiertem memory chip and / or laminated winding 30 is formed. The memory chip and / or the coil device are thus hidden from the outside inaccessible in the laminate body.

The electronic data carrier and / or the antenna device can also be used as components of an integrated in the identity card, inextricably linked to the identity document, in particular sewn, fleece or fabric be formed. The fleece or the fabric thus contains on the one hand the data carrier and / or antenna device as an integral part and on the other hand serves to cohesion of the identity document.

The Fleece or fabric may optionally be introduced in sections in the laminate body his and in the back of the identity document form a flexible hinge element. In order to Is it possible, the antenna device via The back to carry around the identity document, at the same time providing a flexible joint between forms the covers or between the laminate body.

The Fleece or fabric consists in this case of a metallic or plastic material, in particular a fiber material.

In the 1 is the ID document with a partially cut back 5 or lid 10 shown. The cover has a data carrier designed as a memory chip in this exemplary embodiment 20 on that with an antenna device 30 is connected to a contact or contactless data exchange with external reading devices. The antenna device is designed in this embodiment as a coil-like arrangement or winding.

In the in 1 In the exemplary embodiment shown, the arrangement of antenna device and data memory covers both a part of the back and front cover and the back of the identification document. Inside the lid 10 are the tracks of the antenna device 30 or the data memory 20 in a laminate body 40 embedded and forms with this an insoluble compact body. This composite is in the lid 10 the ID document indissoluble incorporated and can only by destroying the lid 10 or the laminate body are removed. For this example, the laminate body 40 with a body made of cardboard or plastic 41 of the lid 10 glued or sewn and with a cover lamination 42 of the lid 10 covered and thus inseparably connected so that the cover lamination can only be removed by irreversible damage to the identity document from the area of the laminate.

In the area of the back 5 of the identification document, the laminate body goes into a fleece or fabric 50 as part of the back as flexible material 5 forms. The fleece or the fabric here preferably consist of plastic fibers, which within the fabric, the conductor tracks of the antenna device 30 contain. Advantageously, the fleece or the fabric 50 introduced into the mentioned laminate body, ie sandwiched between the surfaces of Vorlaminate and within the laminate body with the disk 20 connected.

Farther is the fleece or the fabric with the main body of the lid or the other components of the back unsolvable so connected, in particular glued or sewn, that a separation of the fleece or fabric leads to its irreversible destruction.

Here are the sections of the lids 10 of the identification document arranged laminate body 40 in conjunction with the inside of the back 5 arranged fleece or fabric 50 a hinge connection, which is a folding or closing the lid 10 allows and at the same time a contactless data transmission between the antenna device 30 and external readers.

Of course, a number of modified embodiments are possible in which the entire assembly of laminate body 40 or fleece or fabric 50 in the lid 10 of the identity document are integrated. For example, for safety reasons, the nonwoven or fabric can be multi-coated with the cover lamination 42 connected, for example, be quilted.

2 FIG. 12 shows another exemplary embodiment of a badge document, shown here as an exemplary semi-finished product. Into the back made in the form of a fabric material 5 connected lid 10 in this example are two laminate bodies 40 inserted. These contain an antenna device or winding 30 and a memory chip 20 as a disk. In 3 is the laminate body 40 shown in an enlarged view. The identity document is in the area of the lid 10 laminated with a paper layer so that both laminate bodies are hidden under the paper layer. The lid body 41 can either be made of the same material as the inserted laminate body 40 or be made of one of this different material. At the in 2 In the embodiment shown, the cover body simultaneously forms the laminate body 40 and is covered with the paper layer or other liner. Furthermore, a fabric material 50 laminated in the example shown in the figure in the laminate body in the region of the back.

In the 2 The arrangement shown can be further processed in a paper lamination in devices that are designed for the processing of paper materials. In the example shown in the figure is an exemplary semi-finished product of two together units C and D, each consisting of the lids 10 or the back 5 with the corresponding laminate bodies 40 consist. The units C and D of the semi-finished product can be printed in the manner customary for paper surfaces and then separated along the cut edge S, in particular cut apart.

The 4a and 4b show two different sectional views of in 2 illustrated embodiment. The sectional view from 4a shows a section in the region of the back of the embodiment 2 along the section line AA, the sectional view from 4b shows a section in the region of the antenna device or winding 30 and the data carrier or memory chip 20 along the section line BB 2 ,

The sectional view from 4a shows one of two prelaminates 40a and 40b existing laminate body 40 , Between the prelaminates is the fabric material 50 laminated and forms a solid compound. On the outwardly facing surfaces of the thus formed composite of laminate body and tissue is a Papierkaschierung 57 by means of an adhesive layer 40c glued on the so formed back of the identity document or the in 2 completely masked semi-fabirates shown.

The sectional view from 4b shows a laminate body 40 that's from a prelaminate 40a with a cavity which is responsible for receiving a data carrier 20 in the form of a memory or chip module. The antenna device or winding 30 is together with the data carrier by means of a carrier foil 55 on the prelaminate 40a laminated, wherein the data carrier in the corresponding cavity of Vorlaminats 40a has been pressed. As previously mentioned, the resulting laminate body forms 40 the lid body 41 out, which also on both sides with a glued paper lamination 57 is covered.

For the design of the laminate body are different embodiments possible. In a first exemplary embodiment, the prelaminate is present each one layer of Pretex, between which the transponder device or the memory chip is sandwiched laminated. The joint element is made from a PET fabric laminated between the Pretex prelaminates, that in the back of the identity document can be integrated.

Farther is a use of PVC pre-laminates with one in the hinge area laminated PET fabric and one applied to the PVC pre-laminates Writable or printable paper lamination possible. Here you can the laminate body thus formed how to process a paper material.

The Vorlaminat can also be made of a polycarbonate material with a Laminated PET tissue in the joint area or the laminated Transponder device with memory chip exist.

Furthermore is also an embodiment possible, when on a Vorlaminat from a Teslin plastic the memory chip applied with transponder and on this arrangement a tissue layer, For example, a PET fabric is laminated. Instead of the Teslin plastic can also be used Pretex. Likewise can gauze or another cotton fabric is used.

In front lamination of the layers may be convenient for safety reasons, the prelaminates or the sandwiched transponder or fabric layer to sewn by means of a sewn-in security thread. The safety seam prevents in a mechanical way a later unintentional or as part of a forgery attempt made detachment of laminated layers. The safety seam is expediently executed as a stitching, for example, in an arbitrary shaped web, an X, O or a Lissajous figure, is applied and the ingredients of the laminate firmly connects. As a seam shape, in particular warp seams or flat seams be used. The seam can be made with a conventional sewing device.

Subsequently, will they sewed Laminated structure, i. pressed together. When pressing will be sewn Components pressed together on the level of the safety seam. there creates a flat and very smooth laminate surface.

The Safety seam can either include the paper lamination or covered by the paper lamination be.

The 5a and 5b show exemplary embodiments of a seam course within the cut structure 4a respectively. 4b , In the embodiment of 5a is a sewing thread 60 through the entire layer structure of paper lamination 57 , Carrier film 55 and the laminate composite from the prelaminates 40a and 40b or the tissue 50 passed through and is visible on the outside of the paper liner. So that the paper lamination can not be removed non-destructively.

In the embodiment of 5b is the sewing thread 60 under the lamination 57 hidden and only through the ingredients 40a . 40b . 50 and 55 guided. Such an embodiment is useful when the composite of the prelaminates 40a and 40b or the tissue 50 and the carrier film 55 first sewn and then pressed, with the paper lamination a uniform smooth and printable surface is required.
