Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing documents with security marks of the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a method is suitable, for example, for the production of particularly counterfeit-proof banknotes, in which individual optically striking security marks are applied to sheet-like printed products.
  • EP-A-0 401 4666 is a layer composite from which stamps can be punched which have striking, optically variable compositions of diffraction structures.
  • the composite layer comprises a hot-melt adhesive layer, so that the application of heat is necessary for the adhesive bonding.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a method with which security marks can be applied to documents, in which the application of heat when gluing can be dispensed with and in which the edge sharpness of the transferred image of the security mark is large.
  • 1 means a coating unit with which a film strip 2 is coated on one side with an adhesive 3.
  • the adhesive 3 is a cold adhesive which is liquid but not sticky in the initial state and which only becomes sticky when irradiated with an ultraviolet light-emitting first UV source 4.
  • 5 denotes a substrate to be provided with a security mark. This substrate 5 can be in the form of sheets or in roll form. These are, for example, large sheets that contain a number of banknotes that have already been printed but not yet cut.
  • the adhesive 3 can also be an adhesive that can be activated by electron radiation.
  • An UV source 4 then takes the place of the UV source 4.
  • the adhesive 3 can also be an adhesive that does not require preactivation by the UV source 4 or the electron beam source. Such adhesives are sticky in the cold state, but in the cold state they have an unsuitable viscosity for application to the film strip 2. That's why they are applied when hot.
  • the coating unit 1 contains a heating device.
  • the preactivation by the UV source 4 or the electron beam source can be omitted.
  • the film tape 2 is a tape containing security marks, which will be described later.
  • the film strip 2 coated on one side with adhesive 3 and the substrate 5 are fed to a stamping and gluing unit 6, the side of the film strip 2 coated with the adhesive 3 facing the substrate 5.
  • security marks 7 are punched out of the film strip and glued to the substrate 5.
  • the film strip 2, from which the security marks 7 have already been punched out, is rolled up on a reel 8.
  • the substrate 5 provided with the security marks 7 is fed to a cutting device, not shown, in which the arcuate or endless substrate 5 is divided into the individual documents.
  • the substrate 5 provided with the security marks 7 can previously be exposed to the radiation from a second UV source 9. This has the advantage that the adhesive 3 cures completely, so that there is then a particularly intimate and permanent connection between the security marks 7 and the substrate 5. If an adhesive 3 that can be activated by electron radiation is used, a second electron beam source replaces the second UV source 9.
  • FIG. 2 An example of the film strip 2 is shown in FIG. 2. It consists of a transparent carrier layer 11, on which an intermediate layer 12, a first lacquer layer 13, a reflection layer 14 and a second lacquer layer 15 are applied in the order given.
  • This structure is known from EP-A-0 401 466. It contains embossed diffraction structures 16 which are repeated several times in the foil strip 2.
  • FIG. 3 shows a single security mark 7 with a layer of adhesive 3 which is punched out of the film strip 2.
  • the reference numbers correspond to those in FIG. 2.
  • the method according to the invention for producing documents with security tags 7 using an adhesive 3 that can be activated by ultraviolet light or by electron radiation consists in coating the film strip 2 containing the security tags 7 with an adhesive 3 that can be activated by ultraviolet light or by electron radiation, the subsequently Adhesive 3 is activated by ultraviolet light or electron radiation, and that 2 security marks 7 are punched out of the film strip, which are then immediately adhered to the substrate 5 in the punching and adhesive work 6.
  • an adhesive 3 which can be activated by ultraviolet light or electron radiation instead of a hot adhesive has the advantage that the device for punching and sticking security tags can be very simple because a heating device can be dispensed with. Such a simple device is described below.
  • a stamp 22 is attached to a stamp plate 21.
  • a cutting tool guide 23 is guided by guide pins 24 and supported by means of springs 25 against the stamp plate 21.
  • a die 26 is attached to the cutting tool guide 23.
  • the cutting tool guide 23 and the die 26 together form a cutting tool 27.
  • the substrate 5 lies on a counter-pressure plate 28.
  • the foil strip 2 is passed between the punch 22 and the die 26.
  • the film strip 2 and the substrate 5 have register marks, not shown, which are recognized by means of register mark readers, also not shown, and the exact mutual positioning of the film strip 2 and substrate 5 in the usual manner Allow wise.
  • the substrate 5 is first clamped between the counter-pressure plate 28 and a support surface 29 of the die 26.
  • the stamp 22 moves relative to the cutting tool 27 and an end face 30 of the stamp 22 presses the film strip 2 against a support surface 31 of the die 26.
  • the punch 22 then plunges into an opening 32 of the die 26, whereby the film strip 2 is cut at the moment of immersion. 4, a security mark 7 is cut out of the film strip 2, which is then located on the end face 30 of the stamp 22.
  • the stamp 22 now moves further towards the counterpressure plate 28 until the end face 30 of the stamp 22 with the security mark 7 is placed on the substrate 5. At the moment of placement, the security mark 7 is glued onto the substrate 5.
  • the cutting tool 27 and the punch 22 then move away from the counterpressure plate 28 again.
  • the film strip 2 and substrate 5 are moved on by means not shown, so that the next cutting and gluing process can then take place.
  • the support surface 31 is coated with an anti-adhesive. It can be teflon-coated or siliconized. During punching, the film strip 2 is supported with its side coated with the adhesive 3 on this support surface 31.
  • a punching and gluing unit 6 according to FIG. 1 advantageously contains several of the tools shown in FIG. 4, so that several security marks 7 can be glued to the substrate 5 in one operation.
  • the film strip 2 can also be a continuous strip on the Substrate 5 are glued. In this case, punching can be dispensed with entirely.
