Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plasticized safety document provided with a passport photograph having toothed and/or knurled edges.
  • Safety documents in the sense of the present invention are understood to mean strictly personal identification documents such as admission passes, bank passes, credit cards, and the like, as well as documents issued by the central government such as identity cards, passports, driving licences, etc.
  • documents which are intended for strictly personal use, against forgery, they are plasticized, that is, laminated with a laminate of thermosetting plastic material.
  • the relevant document consisting of printed paper, cardboard, or plastic material, is provided with a passport photograph and subsequently enclosed by two transparant protective sheets of thermosetting polyester material, each being provided with a thin adhesive layer of thermoplastic material, whereupon this entity is laminated by hot-pressing.
  • Such a plasticized safety document is primarily protected against forgery, but does not exclude it completely.
  • an experienced forger will be able to open the laminate again with the help of a hot iron, and change the particulars on the document, e.g. by forging a signature or applying another passport photograph, and subsequently laminating the forged document again.
  • the most vulnerable part of the document is a passport photograph. If a person succeeds in opening the laminate undamaged, it is relatively easy to remove a normal passport photograph without damage and replace it by another one.
  • a plasticized safety document comprising a passport photograph having rounded toothed edges and which is inserted in a matching recess in the document wherein the inner edges of the recess have counter-teeth in which the teeth of the edges of the passport photograph match.
  • the advantage of such an embodiment is, that the passport photograph itself is laminated on both sides as well. In this way protection against fraud is considerably increased, since removing and replacing the passport photograph is made very difficult with a great risk of damaging the teeth of either the passport photograph or the edge of the recess in the document.
  • the invention there is provided a further improvement of plasticized safety documents provided with a passport photograph having toothed and/or knurled edges, which makes fraud almost impossible.
  • the invention provides a safety document as described above, characterized in that the passport photograph edges are toothed and/or knurled according to a special coding pattern for authenticity identification.
  • the passport photograph has at least one character edge in which the teeth or knurls form characters for indication of use.
  • the passport photograph used for the document is actually intended for it.
  • photographs intended for driving licences can be distinguished from those which are designed for example for a specific safety admission pass. This also offers a possibility for preventing forgery.
  • the passport photograph can be inserted in a matching recess in the safety document, having the advantage of an even better safety than discussed above.
  • the invention furthermore provides a suitable method for such a plasticized safety document of the type in which the passport photograph is inserted in a matching recess in the document, characterized in that a passport photograph, not yet cut to the appropriate size, is put on the destined place on the document, is cut out in the appropriate size and with a knurled edge, together with the underlying part of the document, then the cut-out photograph is inserted into the opening formed in the document, and is laminated together with the document.
  • cutting-out can be effected with a passport photograph cutter provided with a cutting master having a format window which has knurled cutting edges, and a punch member that punches out the desired with knurled edges through the window.
  • the passport photograph according to the invention is characterized in that the size window is exchangeable. This offers the possibility of changing the knurl or teeth pattern, if necessary, or applying a different tooth coding, so that the risk of fraud is reduced to a minimum, for example by changing the tooth pattern periodically.
  • the Fig. 1 and 2 show a safety pass of the type which is used as admission control cards for companies and institutes with enhanced safety requirements.
  • the pass consists of a document 1 made of cardboard or hard plastic, comprising identification particulars, in Fig. 2 schematically indicated by full lines on the document on the left-hand side.
  • a passport photograph 2 On the right-hand side a passport photograph 2 has been applied, the smooth edges 3 of which fitting into a window opening 4 in the document 1.
  • document 1 is subsequently plasticized by placing the document 1 between two polyester sheets 5 having their inner sides provided with an adhesive layer of thermoplastic or hot-melt material. The whole is laminated by hot-pressing, whereupon one obtains a plasticized document which is reasonably well-protected against fraud.
  • Fig. 3 shows a safety pass according to the invention, in which the pass is protected against fraud with the passport photograph in particular.
  • a document provided with identification particulars is provided with a passport photograph 2', which fits in a window opening 4' in the document 1.
  • the passport photograph does not have smooth edges, but edges 3' provided with knurls. These knurled edges 3' fit closely within knurled edges 4' of the window opening of the document and, like with the known embodiment, the whole of the document with passport photograph is subsequently laminated on two sides with laminating layers 5 of polyester, having their inner sides provided with an adhesive layer.
  • a thus designed safety pass is particularly fraud-proof. If the laminate is opened by heating, for example with the help of an iron, it is practically impossible to remove the passport photograph 2' without damaging the edge 3' by tearing or breaking off.
  • the window opening 4' having an adjusting knurl pattern can also get damaged easily, so that in any case one can establish afterwards whether fraud was practised with the pass. If one wishes to place a new passport photograph, one firstly has to see to it that it has exactly the same knurled edges as those of the removed passport photograph.
  • Knurling the edges of the passport photograph together with knurling the edges of the window opening can suitably take place in a photograph punch tongs for punching out desired formats.
  • Such photograph cutters are well-known and are provided with a cutting master having a format window, the cutting edges of which cutting the desired format of a passport photograph with the help of a punch that punches the window portion of the inserted photograph through the window.
  • such photograph cutters are equipped with exchangeable windows provided with the desired knurled edges.
