Abstract

A yarn comprising at least a fiber or a single thread which is hidden inside the yarn and which can be identified by a suitable device.

Description

The invention relates to the field of the seals which are utilized to ensure the authenticity of products. More specifically, the invention relates to a yarn comprising at least one fiber which can be identified in order to verify the authenticity of the yarn employed and of the product into which the yarn is incorporated.
Background art
Protection from counterfeit products is a well-known problem in many markets, for example in the fashion and the accessory goods fields.
The real identity of a product is usually ensured by attached seals which are conceived in order to make it as difficult as possible to be fraudulently reproduced. Although these seals are often efficient, it is quite clear that reproducing them is often possible, which makes them useless.
Detailed description of the invention
The invention provides a very useful way to ensure the authenticity of a product by a yarn, preferably a multi-thread yarn, comprising at least one fiber hidden inside the yarn and which can be identified by a suitable reading device.
The latter therefore constitutes the internal core of the yarn or can be alternatively arranged as internal element of a coaxial yarn.
The fiber of the invention is a fiber carrying a code obtained by magnetic materials.
The suitable reading device is a magnetic detector
The fiber can be arranged inside and constitute the core of a yarn of the usual type (preferred solution where the yarn is a synthetic yarn manufactured by extrusion). The yarn, for example when fabrics are concerned, can be embedded in the fabric or sewn into a predetermined part of an article of clothes.
In view of the above, it evident that a yarn or a fiber according to the invention provides an highly efficient and reliable way to verify the authenticity of a product. This result is obtained simply by checking with the suitable reading device whether or not a fiber is inserted in the predetermined position of the product to be verified. A yarn according to the invention can also be used to fix a conventional seal to a product, because the replacement or the cutting of the yarn which binds the seal to the product could be easily verified. On the other hand, neither is it possible to cut the yarn in order to apply the same seal to a counterfeited product.

Claims (6)

  1. A yarn comprising at least one fiber characterized in that such fiber is hidden inside the yarn and can be identified by a suitable reading device,
  2. Yarn according to claim 1, characterized in that said fiber is a fiber carrying a code obtained by magnetic materials.
  3. Yarn according to claims 1 and 2, characterized in that the fiber constitutes the core of the yarn.
  4. Yam according to claim 3, characterized in that the fiber constitutes the core of a synthetic yarn manufactured by extrusion.
  5. Authentication method of a product, characterized in that at least a yarn according to claims 1 to 4 is applied to said product.
  6. Authentication method of a product, characterized in that a yarn according to claims 1 to 4 is utilized to fix a seal to said product.
