Abstract

In the case of an identity card (10) comprised of an assembly of preferably four sheets (12, 14, 16, 18), in order to make an inscription on one of the inner sheets (14) by means of a fast printer, the area (22) concerned by the inscription may be removed. A sheet (16) adjacent of the inner sheet (14) has an adherence elemet (30) which enables an accurate reinsertion into the set of sheets. This adherence element (30) insures the inscription carrying coupon (22) and prevents it from being displaced during welding.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Ausweiskarte mit vier übereinander angeordneten Folien umfassend eine transparente Vorderseitenfolie, eine mit einer Aussparung versehene erste Innenfolie, in deren Aussparung ein auf der Vorderseite mit sichtbaren Kennzeichen versehener Abschnitt und gegebenenfalls ein Foto angeordnet ist, eine gegebenenfalls auf der Rückseite sichtbare Kennzeichen aufweisende zweite Innenfolie sowie eine transparente gegebenenfalls ein Codierelement wie einen Magnetstreifen aufweisende Rückseitenfolie.The invention relates to an identification card with four foils arranged one above the other, comprising a transparent front foil, a first inner foil provided with a recess, in the recess of which a section provided with visible markings and optionally a photo is arranged, one which may be visible on the back Features a second inner film as well as a transparent backing film which may have a coding element such as a magnetic strip.

Die Herstellung einer entsprechenden Ausweiskarte, die einen Satz von vier Folien umfaßt, erfolgt normalerweise dadurch, daß sämtliche Folien in ihrem oberen Randbereich mittels Hochfrequenzverschweißung verbunden werden. Dabei ist die erste transparente Vorderseitenfolie in dem Bereich der Verschweißung perforiert, so daß ein Aufklappen möglich wird, um die erste Innenfolie zum Beispiel mit einer Schreibmaschine beschriften zu können. Ferner kann auf die erste Innenfolie zum Beispiel ein Bild befestigt werden, um anschließend den Foliensatz zum Beispiel in einer Kleinkaschierpresse zu einem Vollplastikausweis zu verarbeiten.A corresponding identification card, which comprises a set of four foils, is normally produced by connecting all foils in their upper edge region by means of high-frequency welding. The first transparent front-side film is perforated in the area of the weld, so that it can be opened to be able to label the first inner film, for example with a typewriter. Furthermore, an image can be attached to the first inner film, for example, in order to subsequently process the film set into a full plastic ID card, for example in a small laminating press.

Die Herstellung entsprechender Ausweiskarten ist insbesondere bezüglich der Beschriftung recht umständlich, da sie normalerweise von Hand erfolgt.The production of appropriate ID cards is particularly cumbersome with regard to the labeling, since it is usually done by hand.

Aus der US-A-4 330 350 ist eine aus bis zu vier Folien zusammengeschichtete Ausweiskarte bekannt, welche in einer in dem oberen inneren Blatt befindlichen Aussparung eine mit Informationen versehene Fotografie aufnimmt. Auf der unteren oder oberen Außenfolie ist ein Magnetbandstreifen angebracht. Vor dem Einbringen der Fotografie ist die Aussparung durch ein Füllstück exakt ausgefüllt, so daß eine Codierung des Magnetbandstreifens möglich ist, wobei dieser in konstantem geringem Abstand an einem Schreibkopf vorbeigeführt werden kann. Nach dem Austausch des Füllstückes gegen die Fotografie ist eine passgenaue Ausfüllung der Aussparung nicht mehr gewährleistet. Nach einem abschließenden Verspeisen der Folie zur fertigen Ausweiskarte ist die völlig ebene Anordnung der Magnetbandfolie nicht mehr gewährleistet, so daß bei späterem Codieren und beim Ablesen Übertragungsfehler auftreten können.From US-A-4 330 350, an identification card is made up of up to four foils, which takes a photograph provided with information in a recess in the upper inner sheet. A magnetic tape strip is attached to the lower or upper outer film. Before the photograph is inserted, the cut-out is filled exactly with a filler, so that coding of the magnetic tape strip is possible, and this can be guided past a write head at a constant short distance. After replacing the filler piece with photography, it is no longer possible to guarantee that the recess is filled exactly. After a final feeding of the film to the finished ID card, the completely flat arrangement of the magnetic tape film is no longer guaranteed, so that transmission errors can occur during later coding and reading.

Hier soll die Erfindung Abhilfe schaffen und eine Ausweiskarte der eingangs genannten Art bzw. ein Verfahren zu deren Herstellung so auszubilden, daß insbesondere mit Schnelldruckern eine Beschriftung der ersten Innenfolie erfolgen kann, ohne daß die Gefahr besteht, daß die genau aufeinander auszurichtenden Innenfolien eine Fehlposition zueinander einnehmen, wodurch insbesondere bei der Verwendung von Kodierelementen eine fehlerhafte Ausweiskarte entstehen und die zum Verschweißen erforderlichen Heizpressen beschädigt werden könnten.The invention is intended to remedy this situation and to design an identification card of the type mentioned at the outset or a method for its production in such a way that, in particular with high-speed printers, the first inner film can be labeled without the risk that the inner films which are to be aligned exactly with one another are in an incorrect position ingest, which creates a faulty ID card, particularly when using coding elements, and could damage the heating presses required for welding.

Die Aufgabe wird durch eine Ausweiskarte der eingangs genannten Art dadurch gelöst, daß der in der Aussparung angeordnete mit sichtbaren Kennzeichen versehene Abschnitt der zur Bildung der Aussparung aus der ersten Innenfolie entfernte Abschnitt ist. Mit anderen Worten kann der aus der ersten Folie zu beschriftende Bereich durch vorzugsweise Herausstanzen entfernt werden, um ihn zum Beispiel auf ein Endlosträgerband aufbringen und ihn beschriften zu können. Sodann wird dieser Abschnitt passgenau auf die zweite Innenfolie gelegt, wobei die nicht herausgestanzten Bereiche der ersten Innenfolie als Führung zum richtigen positionieren des beschrifteten Abschnitts auf die zweite Innenfolie dient. Dabei bilden diese Bereiche vorzugsweise einen Rahmen. Damit der lose in den Rahmen gelegte Abschnitt jedoch nicht mehr auf der zweiten Innenfolie verrutschen kann, weist dieser zumindest in einem Bereich ein Haftmittel auf, wodurch der herausgestanzte und beschriftete Abschnitt passgenau festgelegt wird. Dies ist insbesondere bei der Verwendung von Magnetstreifen oder anderen Kodierungen auf der zweiten Innenfolie von Wichtigkeit. Dadurch, daß der beschriftete und wieder in den Foliensatz zurückgelegte Abschnitt durch den Haftkleber genau in seiner Position festgelegt wird, kann außerdem der Nachteil nicht auftreten, daß der wieder eingelegte Abschnitt mit dem verbleibenden Bereich der ersten Folie zum Überlappen gelangt, da andernfalls die Pressplatten beschädigt werden könnten.The object is achieved by an identification card of the type mentioned at the outset in that the section provided with visible identifiers in the recess is the section removed from the first inner film to form the recess. In other words, the area to be labeled from the first film can be removed by preferably punching it out, for example in order to be able to apply it to an endless carrier tape and to be able to label it. This section is then placed precisely on the second inner film, the areas of the first inner film which have not been punched out serving as a guide for correctly positioning the labeled section on the second inner film. These areas preferably form a frame. However, so that the section loosely placed in the frame can no longer slip on the second inner film, it has an adhesive at least in one area, as a result of which the punched-out and labeled section is fixed precisely. This is particularly important when using magnetic strips or other encodings on the second inner film. The fact that the labeled and put back into the film set by the pressure-sensitive adhesive is exactly fixed in its position, the disadvantage that the reinserted section can overlap with the remaining area of the first film, otherwise the press plates are damaged could become.

Hinsichtlich eines einzubringenden Fotos kann aus der ersten Folie gleichfalls ein der Fotogröße entsprechender Abschnitt herausgestanzt werden, um in diesen Bereich unmittelbar auf die zweite Innenfolie das Foto zu legen. Dabei ist dieser Bereich mit einem Haftmittel versehen, um sicherzustellen, daß das Foto nicht verrutschen kann. Die Gefahr, daß demzufolge ein Abschnitt der ersten Innenfolie auf dem Foto zu liegen kommt, ist dadurch ausgeschlossen.With regard to a photo to be inserted, a section corresponding to the photo size can likewise be punched out of the first film in order to place the photo directly on the second inner film in this area. This area is provided with an adhesive to ensure that the photo cannot slip. This eliminates the risk that a section of the first inner film comes to rest on the photo.

Ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer Ausweiskarte umfassend im wesentlichen den zuvor beschriebenen Foliensatz sowie gegebenenfalls Kodierelemente und/oder ein Foto zeichnet sich dadurch aus, daß aus der ersten Innenfolie ein zu beschriftender Abschnitt herausgestanzt wird und daß der Abschnitt nach dessen Beschriftung auf die in diesem Bereich mit einem Maßtmittel versehene zweite Folie zurückgelegt wird, um anschließend die Folien zu verschweißen. Dabei dient der in der ersten Innenfolie nach Entfernen des Abschnitts verbleibende Bereich vorzugsweise in Form eines Rahmens als Führung zur richtigen Positionierung des auf die zweite innere Folie zu legenden ausgestanzten und beschrifteten Abschnitts. Das Beschriften des herausgestanzten Abschnitts aus der ersten Innenfolie erfolgt dabei mittels eines Schnelldruckers, wozu der Abschnitt auf einem Endlosträgerband befestigt wird.A method for producing an identification card essentially comprising the previously described set of foils and, if appropriate, coding elements and / or a photo is characterized in that a section to be labeled is punched out of the first inner film and that the section is inscribed in this area after it has been labeled a second film provided with a measuring means, in order to subsequently weld the films. The area remaining in the first inner film after removal of the section is preferably used in the form of a frame as a guide for the correct positioning of the punched-out and labeled section to be placed on the second inner film. The stamped-out section from the first inner film is labeled using a high-speed printer, for which purpose the section is printed on a Endless carrier tape is attached.

Bezüglich des Einbringens eines Fotos in die Ausweiskarte wird gleichfalls vorgeschlagen, daß ein dem Foto entsprechender Bereich aus der ersten Innenfolie herausgestanzt wird, um in den so gebildeten Freiraum das Foto einzubringen. Dieses wird dann in der richtigen Positionierung zu den Innenfolien mittels auf der zweiten Innenfolie vorhandenen Haftmittel festgelegt.With regard to the introduction of a photo into the identity card, it is also proposed that an area corresponding to the photo be punched out of the first inner film in order to introduce the photo into the free space thus formed. This is then fixed in the correct position relative to the inner foils by means of adhesive present on the second inner foil.

Weitere Einzelheiten, Vorteile und Merkmale der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der ein bevorzugtes Ausführungsbeispiel darstellenden Zeichnung.Further details, advantages and features of the invention result from the drawing showing a preferred embodiment.

In der einzigen Figur ist ein Ausweiskartenset 10 dargestellt, das aus einer transparenten Vorderseitenfolie 12, einer ersten mit einer Beschriftung zu versehenden Innenfolie 14, einer zweiten gegebenenfalls mit einem Rückseitendruck versehenen Innenfolie 16 sowie einer transparenten Rückseitenfolie 18, die unter Umständen mit Kodierelementen wie zum Beispiel Magnetstreifen versehen werden kann. Wie die Figur verdeutlicht, setzt sich ferner die erste Innenfolie 14 aus einem Rahmen 20 sowie aus einem mit einer Beschriftung zu versehenden Abschnitt 22 rechteckförmiger Geometrie zusammen. Aus dem Abschnitt 22 kann ferner eine Ausnehmung 24 herausgestanzt sein, die genau der Größe eines Fotos 26 angepaßt ist.In the single figure, an identification card set 10 is shown, which consists of a transparent front film 12, a first inner film 14 to be provided with a lettering, a second inner film 16 optionally provided with a back print, and a transparent back film 18, which may have coding elements such as, for example Magnetic stripe can be provided. As the figure shows, the first inner film 14 is also composed of a frame 20 and a section 22 of rectangular geometry to be labeled. A recess 24 can also be punched out of the section 22, which is exactly adapted to the size of a photo 26.

Die Folien 12,14,16 und 18 sind in ihren oberen Bereichen 28 verzugsweise mittels Hochfrequenzverschweißung verbunden, wodurch ein Zusammenhalt gegeben ist. Um ein einfaches Beschriften der Innenfolie 14 zu ermöglichen, wird der Abschnitt 22 herausgestanzt. Der Abschnitt 22 kann dann zum Beispiel auf ein Endlosträgerband aufgeklebt werden, um die Beschriftung dann mittels eines Schnelldruckers vornehmen zu können. Damit sichergestellt ist, daß der ausgestanzte Abschnitt 22 anschließend passgenau auf die zweite Innenfolie 16 zu liegen kommt, dient der Rahmen 20 als Führung. Bei in den Rahmen 200 eingebrachtem Abschnitt 22 stellt sich demzufolge wieder eine geschlossene gegebenenfalls mit der Ausnehmung 24 versehene Fläche zur Verfügung. Um jedoch sicherzustellen, daß bei der Ausbildung des Foliensatzes 10 zu einem Vollplastikausweis ein Verrutschen des Abschnitts 22 nicht erfolgt, befindet sich auf der der ersten Innenfolie 14 zugewandten Flache der zweiten Innenfolie 16 ein Haftmittel 30. Dieses Haftmittel in Form zum Beispiel eines Klebers stellt sicher, daß bei eingebrachtem Abschnitt 22 in den Rahmen 20 eine gewünschte passgenaue Ausrichtung zur zweiten Innenfolie 16 gegeben ist. Dadurch wird sichergestellt, daß nicht nur eine richtige Ausrichtung der auf der Rückseitenfolie 18 vorhandenen Kodierelemente zu den einzelnen Innenfolien 14 und 16 gegeben ist, sondern daß beim Ausbilden des Vollplastikausweises sichergestellt ist, daß Folienabschnitte nicht überlappend vorliegen, wodurch insbesondere Platten der verwendeten Pressen, zum Beispiel Kleinkaschierpressen beschädigt werden könnten.The foils 12, 14, 16 and 18 are connected in their upper regions 28 by means of high-frequency welding, whereby there is cohesion. In order to make it easy to label the inner film 14, the section 22 is punched out. The section 22 can then, for example, be glued to an endless carrier tape in order to then be able to carry out the labeling using a high-speed printer. To ensure that the punched-out section 22 then comes to lie precisely on the second inner film 16, the frame 20 serves as a guide. In the case of section 22 introduced into the frame 200, a closed surface, optionally provided with the recess 24, is again available. However, in order to ensure that when the film set 10 is formed into a full plastic ID card, the section 22 does not slip, there is an adhesive 30 on the surface of the second inner film 16 facing the first inner film 14. This adhesive in the form of, for example, an adhesive ensures that when the section 22 is inserted into the frame 20, there is a desired precise alignment with the second inner film 16. This ensures that not only is there a correct alignment of the coding elements present on the rear-side film 18 with the individual inner films 14 and 16, but that when the full plastic ID card is formed, it is ensured that film sections are not overlapping, thereby in particular plates of the presses used Example small laminating presses could be damaged.

Um auch sicherzustellen, daß ein in den Ausweis einzubringendes Fotos 26 die richtige Position einnimmt, ist auf der zweiten Innenfolie 16 in einem Bereich 32, der bei in den Rahmen 20 eingebrachtem Abschnitt 22 der Ausnehmung 24 zugeordnet ist, ein Haftmittel angeordnet, wodurch sichergestellt ist, daß das in die Ausnehmung 24 eingebrachte Foto 26 positionsgenau festgelegt wird. Auch dadurch ergibt sich der Vorteil, daß keine Folienabschnitte auf dem Foto 26 zu liegen kommen.In order to also ensure that a photo 26 to be inserted into the identification card takes the correct position, an adhesive is arranged on the second inner film 16 in a region 32 which is assigned to the recess 24 when the section 22 is inserted into the frame 20, thereby ensuring that the photo 26 introduced into the recess 24 is positioned precisely. This also has the advantage that no film sections come to rest on the photo 26.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Lehre wird demzufolge eine einfache Handhabung eines Ausweiskartensets 10 zur Verfügung gestellt, wodurch sichergestellt ist, daß ein schnelles und problemloses Beschriften der Innenfolien erfolgen kann, daß die fertiggestellten ausweise zum Beispiel hinsichtlich ihrer Kodierung einwandfrei ausgebildet sind und daß ferner beim Preßvorgang ein Beschädigen der Preßplatten nicht erfolgen kann.The teaching according to the invention accordingly provides simple handling of an ID card set 10, which ensures that the inner foils can be labeled quickly and easily, that the finished identification cards are properly formed, for example with regard to their coding, and that damage is also caused during the pressing process the press plates can not be done.
