Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fiduciary or similar document, of the type which includes a support on which security prints are provided.
  • “Fiduciary document” means all documents such as banknotes bank, checks, bank cards, used to transmit a sum of money.
  • assimilated document means all documents issued by a state administration to attest to the identity of a person, their rights to drive a vehicle ... nonlimiting, we can mention the identity card, passport, driving license, etc. Through this expression also means any document used to authenticate an object of value. It may for example be a label affixed to a luxury item of clothing.
  • detectors with ultraviolet radiation which allow to discern the real ones from the fake notes, in particular by revelation of ink impressions fluorescent and / or by lack of reflection of the backing paper.
  • the article is a laminate comprising a base layer and two superposed fluorescent layers.
  • the materials used are for example plastics such as polyvinyl chloride. of the fluorescent materials are dispersed in the plastic materials of the two layers. he it is specified that the first and second fluorescent materials are chosen so as to have different excitation and emission spectra, so as to emit colors different in the visible and infrared (IR) regions of the spectrum.
  • the article can constitute an adhesive label affixed for example on a video tape.
  • GB-A-2 300 596 relates to an element of fluorescent security for checks and banknotes, which is visible to the naked eye, but not reproducible by photocopy or scanner.
  • This element comprises a transparent substrate or translucent, formed from a plastic film or paper partially absorbing UV rays. This substrate are deposited a first and a second fluorescent coatings. These coverings consist of a filling material in which is dispersed a pigment or fluorescent dye. The two coatings are chosen to emit in fluorescence at different wavelengths. Therefore, depending on the type of light under which it is seen, the security element adopts the color of one or the other of the two coatings.
  • document EP-A-595 583 (CANON) relates to a means not visible to the naked eye to verify that the document on which it is placed is authentic.
  • the invention also relates to a method for verifying that the document is or is not authentic. It includes equipment for reading information contained in said means and analyze whether the document is a copy or an original.
  • the means not visible to the naked eye is an identification mark formed an ink comprising a plurality of fluorescent coloring materials, each having a fluorescence wavelength close to IR. Furthermore, these materials have a absorption spectrum with maximum absorption wavelengths which are not not overlap.
  • the present invention aims to provide additional security fiduciary documents by providing them with an additional means to guarantee their authenticity, without this security being reproducible, in particular by photocopying, and this using a simple technique, commonly used in the field of documents Trustees.
  • the invention which makes use of prints using special inks, does not in no way calls into question the usual technique of manufacturing documents shareholders.
  • FIG. 1 The document 1 shown schematically in Figure 1 is for example a banknote. Signs, drawings, values and other inscriptions usually carried by a bank note have not been shown here for the sake of clarity.
  • this note is coated with a first impression 3, in this case the acronym "ABC”, which is produced in an ink C 1 invisible to the naked eye, but fluorescent or phosphorescent.
  • This ink is for example red in color.
  • this first impression 3 is not detected.
  • This first impression can take the form, as shown in the Figure 1, of a message made up of letters. However, such a message can also understand numbers and / or other signs. He can have a character totally arbitrary or, on the contrary, have meaning for the reader.
  • a second impression 4 is carried by document 1, which covers the first impression. Particularly advantageously, this impression occupies more surface area than the first impression.
  • Printing 4 is carried out with an ink visible or invisible to the naked eye.
  • it is an ink of color C 2 different from C 1 .
  • a color C 2 complementary to C 1 is used , in order to obtain a good contrast.
  • C 2 is the color green.
  • the second printing is carried out so as to form a visual scrambling of the first printing, so that under neutral light illumination when the ink C 2 is a visible ink, or under UV lighting when the ink C 2 is an ink invisible to the naked eye, only the second impression 4 is visible.
  • This is what has been shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, where the reference O designates the eye of an observer, while the oblique arrow represents UV radiation.
  • the second printing is carried out in the form of a guilloche pattern, i.e. an arrangement of directed interlaced lines in any directions, so that the arrangement of these lines and their density per unit area are such that they obscure the vision of the first impression.
  • a guilloche pattern i.e. an arrangement of directed interlaced lines in any directions, so that the arrangement of these lines and their density per unit area are such that they obscure the vision of the first impression.
  • This second impression constitutes a first level of security for the document.
  • C 2 is an invisible fluorescent or phosphorescent ink
  • a source of UV radiation of well known type
  • the support 2 of the document consisting of paper when it it is a bank note, will preferably be devoid of optical brightener so that that, under UV radiation, no light is reflected by it. Otherwise, this additional reflected light would make it more difficult to consult the second printing (no contrast).
  • Figures 3A and 3B is shown the situation in which, in addition to UV radiation, the observer consults document 1 through a filter, by plastic example, the color of which is similar to that of the first impression 3.
  • C 1 is preferably the color red, while C 2 is preferably the color green.
  • any other pair of colors, preferably complementary, can be used.
