Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the protection of equipment against theft and relates more particularly to the "tattooing" of equipment, in particular computer and office automation equipment.
  • the identification of computer or other hardware is traditionally carried out using a serial number carried by a self-adhesive label fixed on the housing of the device and which can be easily removed.
  • the stamp or label according to US-A-2 225 520 in fact constitutes proof of payment of a tax whose primary function is to remain clearly visible on the object carrying it in order to indicate that the tax due for this object was actually acquitted.
  • the arrangement described in this document makes it possible to make a tamper-resistant stamp because it comprises several superimposed layers, one of which is an underlying layer which identifies the stamp authenticating and which only appears by removing the upper layers of it by scraping or abrasion.
  • This stamp can be easily removed from its support without leaving a trace and therefore does not constitute a security element for the object which carries it.
  • the invention aims to remedy this lack of protection by creating means which make it possible on the one hand to give equipment an identification number and on the other hand, to make this identification number practically unalterable, so that the material carrying it is identifiable at all times.
  • an identification plate of a material carrying identification information on a first face the other face of said plate being adhesive and carrying an inscription transferable by sticking to a wall of the material to be identified during placing said plate and appearing on this wall in the event of the plate being torn off, characterized in that it carries, in a first zone of the first face, an identification number and in a second zone, information relating to the identification body which should be contacted for information relating to the holder of the identification number, in that the transferable inscription is a warning of theft of the material and in that the adhesive transferring the he inscription is such that it can no longer be removed from the wall and the inscription can no longer be erased without damaging the wall which carries it.
  • a plate 1 made for example of light alloy the front of which is subdivided into two main zones 2 and 3 delimited by an external frame 4 and by a horizontal dividing line 5.
  • Zone 2 bears an inscription relating to the designation of the organization and which manufactures the plate in question.
  • Zone 3 includes a central area 6 delimited by a rectangular frame 7 in which is registered the identification number of the plate and consequently of the device intended to receive it.
  • the inscriptions located in zones 2 and 3 are advantageously made by depositing a material in the vapor phase.
  • Fig.2 is shown the back of the plate of Fig.1.
  • This rear face of the plate has two adhesive side zones 8.9 on which are placed, for example, double-sided adhesives.
  • the adhesive used is for example of the 94.73 type 3M.
  • the setting time of this adhesive is 15 s and the optimal resistance to peeling is obtained after 24 hours.
  • This adhesive resists temperatures between - 50 and + 100 ° C, so that an attempt to manually peel it is almost impossible and would risk leaving traces.
  • a central zone 10 is provided on which is fixed a strip of film of thermo-stabilized plastic material 11 on which is printed upside down, using for example d '' a laser printer, an inscription 12 intended to warn that the material has been stolen, accompanied by the same identification number as that printed on the back in box 7.
  • the central zone 10 of the back of the plate 1 is coated with an adhesive such as, for example, a Cyanoacrylate gel adhesive, for example of the 454 Loctite gel type, manufactured and sold by the company Framet, and the protective strips are removed. of the two surfaces 8, 9 provided with their double-sided adhesive.
  • an adhesive such as, for example, a Cyanoacrylate gel adhesive, for example of the 454 Loctite gel type, manufactured and sold by the company Framet, and the protective strips are removed. of the two surfaces 8, 9 provided with their double-sided adhesive.
  • the plate is then applied to a wall, for example of plastic, of the box of the electrical equipment to be protected.
  • the two zones 8 and 9 carrying the double-sided adhesive quickly adhere to the wall of the case and the strip of plastic film 10 carrying the inscriptions printed upside down is glued to said wall with cyanoacrylate gel glue, so that the film with the characters is transferred and practically incorporated with the glue into the plastic of the equipment housing.
  • the film 11 is bonded to the wall of the housing when the plate 1 is fixed to it.
  • the setting time of the cyanoacrylate glue and 10s and the final resistance is obtained after 12 hours.
  • the plastic plate and strip may include an initials and / or a logo identifying the company to which the equipment belongs as well as a bar code in order to be able to manage the equipment of a company more easily.
  • Fig.3 there is shown in partial view, the wall P of an item of equipment identified using a plate according to the invention and the plate of which has been torn off. It can be seen that the tearing off of the plate has left incorporated into the wall of the apparatus, the plastic film 11 bearing the inscription of the theft warning of the material, the identification number of this material as well as the number of call from the IT equipment management body. These inscriptions are so intimately incorporated into the wall P of the housing, that it is practically impossible to erase them without damaging the wall which carries them.
