Definitions

  • the invention relates to a data carrier, such as a security, an identity card, a banknote, a packaging or the like with at least one security element applied to the data carrier, which has a serial number, which individualizes the data carrier from a number of data carriers and a method for producing the data carrier ,
  • a data carrier such as a security, an identity card, a banknote, a packaging or the like with at least one security element applied to the data carrier, which has a serial number, which individualizes the data carrier from a number of data carriers and a method for producing the data carrier ,
  • serial number is usually printed on the already completed data carrier.
  • this printed serial number of the disk is individualized, i. it is assigned an individual and unique feature, whereby the data carrier from a series of otherwise identical data carriers is uniquely identifiable.
  • a numbering unit is usually used, which is introduced in a numbering station, whereby the data carriers to be numbered are already through the numbering station as a single benefit or even in a multiple-use arc, thereby providing the serial number.
  • serial number For applying the serial number to a security document, a method is already known from DE-OS 1486 894, in which a serial number is applied by means of a numbering on the document, wherein the numbering has digit scrolls, which after each imprint of a number to a counter be switched on.
  • This multi-digit serial number can be provided several times on the document and can be applied horizontally or vertically as required.
  • this serial number it is possible to apply this serial number with a special color, which ensures that the value document against falsification is better secured and moreover, a simple control of the correct numbering and adjustment, i. So the correct application of the serial number is possible.
  • magnetic colors are proposed for this purpose so that the numbering can be read by machine with the aid of suitable detectors.
  • EP 0 061 795 B1 In order to increase the security against forgery of value documents, it is further proposed in EP 0 061 795 B1 to provide an additional code number on the document.
  • This code number is applied to the document by a numeric roller arranged equiaxially to the numbering machine and can be controlled as a function of the respective setting of the number wheels of the serial number.
  • an additional code number can be generated, which is generated depending on the printed serial number and applied together with it.
  • EP 0 160 504 B1 further proposes to provide the serial number on a document in such a way that at least two characters of the serial number differ in their height, width, font or in a combination of these properties.
  • the invention is thus based on the object of providing numbered documents with a security element, which on the one hand ensures individualization of the individual documents from a series of documents and, on the other hand, improves the forgery-proofing of the numbered documents.
  • a data carrier such as a value document
  • a security element having a serial number, this security element consisting of two parts.
  • the first part of the security element has only a part of the serial number, while the second part of the security element has the entire serial number.
  • both parts of the security element are each applied with a separate numbering on the document relative to each other in a defined position.
  • the numbering device used is, in particular, in each case a numbering unit which has numbering wheels.
  • number wheels are provided with a blind numbering, so number wheels that carry no digits. This blind digitization causes no digits to be transmitted to the document at these locations, so the number applied represents only partially the serial number.
  • the two parts of the security element are applied with different numbering on the disk, it is possible to make the first part of the security element so that it only partially represents the serial number, while the second part of the security element can be designed so that it Completely reproduces the serial number.
  • the first and the second part together form the security element according to the invention.
  • the serial number may be entered in to represent two different shades.
  • the sequence of digits associated with the first part of the security element may be presented in a completely different color than the sequence of digits associated with the second part of the security element.
  • a positionally accurate guidance of the document within the numbering ensures after the application of the first part of the security element, ie the first, incomplete digit sequence of the serial number that the document is exactly the second numbering supplied and here the second part of the security element, ie the full serial number the value document is applied.
  • the incomplete serial number of the first part of the security element is completed by a digit of the second part of the security element. It is irrelevant in this procedure which part of the security element is applied first and which second is applied to the data carrier.
  • FIG. 1 schematically shows eight adjacent number blocks 18 of a first number row 10 from a first numbering unit and eight adjacent number blocks 20 of a second number row 12 of a second numbering unit.
  • numeric blocks 18, 20 10 numeric blocks with digits 16 and numeric blocks are provided with a blind numeral 14 alternately in the number series.
  • the number blocks 20 carry digits 17 at the positions where the number row 10 has blind digits 14, while the dummy digits 15 of the number row 12 are correspondingly provided at the points at which the series 10 digits 16 are provided.
  • the first and the second numbering works are now provided in a numbering station for numbering documents in such a way that first the number series 10 is printed on the document.
  • the second digit sequence is applied in the present case to the document that the full serial number, which consists of a combination of Numbers 16 of the first row of digits 10 and the numbers 17 of the second row of numbers 12 is applied to the document.
  • the position of the security element which is composed of the digits of the first row of digits 10 and the second row of digits 12, is freely selectable on the document.
  • the data carrier 22 for example a banknote
  • the numbers 16 of the first number row 10 and the numbers 17 of the second number row 12 are applied so that they are on a common straight baseline.
  • the serial number 24 is thereby applied with the help of two numbering machines, which each contain a blind numbering.
  • This serial number then represents the security element that consists of two parts.
  • the first part represents the serial number only incomplete and consists for example of the number sequence "A 641".
  • the second part also represents the applied serial number also incomplete and in this example consists of the digit sequence "7 5 3 2".
  • the two parts of the security element are applied to the banknote in such a way that the individual numbers from the two numbering stations alternately follow one another and together form the complete serial number 24.
  • serial number 24 which, as indicated in the present example, has different colors alternately for the individual digits of the serial number, if the two numbering units are colored differently become. Since each numbering unit is usually colored with only one color, the numerals printed by a numbering system always have the same color.
  • the serial number can also be provided on the banknote several times with a suitable design of the numbering station, the serial numbers 24 and 25 being applied to the banknote 22 in the manner described above.
  • the serial number 24 can be applied, for example, with two different colors, such as black and red, while the serial number 25 may well have a different color combination, such as green and blue.
  • the first part of the security element 28, which represents the serial number only incomplete and, for example, from the digit sequence "7654312" is combined with the second part of the security element 30 so that by the positionally accurate arrangement the two parts of the security element 28 and 30, the first part of the security element 28 is supplemented by the first digit ("A") of the second part of the security element 30 to the complete serial number.
  • a first and a second numbering unit are provided in the numbering apparatus, the first numbering unit having the serial number only incompletely, i. that at one point, in this case the first digit, a blind digit is inserted.
  • the second numbering unit is in the present case designed as a vertical numbering unit and includes the complete serial number without blind numbering.
  • the document is then guided in the numbering station so that after the application of the first part of the security element 28, the second part of the security element 30 is applied to the banknote 22 with exact position, so that the first part 28 is replaced by a digit of the second part 30 to the complete serial number is supplemented.
  • the first part of the security feature 28 can be supplemented by any point of the second part of the security element 30 per se.
  • the number sequence "A765431" on the document 22 is supplemented by the last digit "2" of the second part of the security feature 30 to the complete serial number.
  • the security element is designed so that the first part of the security element crosses with the second part of the security element and the first part is supplemented by the second part to the complete serial number.
  • the first part of the security element 28 which only partially has the serial number, is combined with the second part of the security element 30, which has the serial number completely, in such a way that the number sequence of the first part is followed by a digit of the second part a complete serial number is added.
  • the security element provided in this manner on the data carrier gives a considerably higher protection against imitation, since the two parts of the security element have to be applied to each other with exact position, which is possible only with high-precision special machines.
  • FIG. 7 shows a further possibility of arranging the first and the second part of the security element on the document in such a way that the forgery-proofness of the document is considerably increased.
  • the first part of the element consists of the numbers 32 and 36, which are applied vertically or horizontally on the document 22 along a respective common baseline. Offset to this baseline, the second part of the security element 34 or 38 is provided on the document 22 respectively.
  • the numbers 32 and 34 or 36 and 38 are arranged in their position relative to each other so that they are intertwined and offset from one another, wherein both parts together form the complete serial number.
  • the security feature can be provided in one or more of the listed variants one or more times on a disk.
  • the security element can be applied to a disk, if this is still available as a multiple use, for example as a sheet.
  • This sheet is then fed to a numbering station, wherein successively the first and then the second part of the security element are each applied simultaneously to each individual volume of the sheet.
  • the order in which the first and second parts of the security element are applied to a document is irrelevant.
