Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method according to claim 1 and one accordingly characterized article according to claim 7.
  • the visually invisible markings usually uses UV pens used that with a very difficult to remove visually invisible UV color enable individual identification, for example by writing the Name of the owner on the item.
  • UV markers are as Locking pins commercially available.
  • a label is placed on the Item attached or the item itself is for example by means of a Engraving device or soldering iron permanently marked. It's the combination too possible, for example by using special UV or laser lacquers, d. H.
  • varnishes which only show a color or a different color in UV light or laser light than in of visual observation. Such varnishes can be used to make them harmless Create captions that are not made by a thief or fence, if not known be removed.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a resource with simple means relatively safe to label.
  • an object with a visual is not visible marking means marked.
  • One such marker is For example, a UV marker that only forms a visually visible color under UV light. Other detections are also possible.
  • the marking agent is applied however, not as free-hand or using stencils, as is customary up to now, but first attached a label to the object, around the edge of which the Marking agent is applied. This ensures that the marking agent takes on a very precisely defined geometric shape on the object, whereby it is almost impossible due to the infinite variety of special label shapes, that another identifier has the same geometric shape on his Objects.
  • the Marking is done much faster and not an additional marking Template must be stocked.
  • the stocking of the labels is proportional simple and is basically already done for those who already Label equipment, for example in the form of an inventory label.
  • the label as Visually visible marking can be left on the object so that one combines a visually visible with a visually invisible marking receives. The visible marking alone makes a certain one Theft deterrent achieved.
  • a label particularly suitable as a label are those that can be stuck on, since these are on the easiest to install.
  • other fastening methods such as for example rivets are possible.
  • self-adhesive labels suitable, whereby advantageously only difficult to remove labels (adhesive) are used.
  • UV varnishes that are common today, which make the visually invisible marking (clear tack) enable, are designed so that they do not with the usual solvents are removable and also penetrate something into many objects, so that a slight grinding does not lead to a loss of the marking.
  • the method according to the invention is also suitable for being completely invisible Labeling by using a label that is relatively easy to peel off is.
  • the label serves as a stencil for the marking in order to follow the Mark to be peeled off. Both can be combined particularly well by on the same object in one place the label with the marking remains and the label is removed at another point after the marking. This ensures that a thief who - the UV marking on the label - from for any reason whatsoever - detects and grinds the mark, the second Leaves the mark untouched.
  • the label particularly advantageously has an edge that is defined by a pure circle, rectangle, Square or triangle or other very simple geometric shapes, also with rounded corners, deviates. This makes practically one hundred percent individuality reached in labeling.
  • the label in particular can also be a have inner edge, so that in particular together with the outer edge particularly individual labeling is possible.
  • the label is very particularly advantageously designed as a logo, for example can a company logo can be used.
  • This makes it possible through the UV marking around the contours of the logo, especially any internal contours Label the object with the company logo. That means the logo if it remains on the object, visible to the eye without any aids Item identifies, whereas after removing the logo from the Subject the logo as a mark on the. Not visible to the naked eye The object remains.
  • the logo can then be used, for example, with a UV lamp can be recognized immediately, which also means that a security agency (police) Assignment of a found object becomes very easy.
  • the procedure is based on a Embodiment and drawings described in more detail.
  • two company logos 1 and 3 are created on one computer appropriate. It is attached by pulling off a protective film on the back the logo, sticking the logo on the computer 2 and pressing the logo, for example using a transfer film. If a transfer film is available is then deducted. After that, using a locking pin painted over entire logo. This painting over does not need to be done carefully along the edge of the logo, it can be done simply with the locking pin in the area of the edge or be painted over the entire logo, with the locking pin the object in the area of the edge of the logo 1 or 3 and possibly also that Logo itself marked. The latter is not a problem, since the locking pin is one for the Eye forms practically unrecognizable film.
  • the locking pin forms inside and outside around the Logo 1 or 3 an invisible film 4, which is shown dark in the figures, in the Reality, however, can only be detected or recognized by means of an aid.
  • the first labeling option is shown at Logo 1.
  • the label was after the overpainting removed with the locking pin, so that the entire logo 1 in Principle is not visible.
  • the film areas 4 can only be seen under UV light, the original surface 7 is then visible between the film areas 5. Only under UV light the logo 1 appears as shown.
  • the security film 4 is again applied, so that for a viewer can normally only see the label 6 as a logo without aids. Everything becomes colorful under UV light, even if film 4 was also painted over the logo.
  • a label is thus placed on an object 2 to be labeled 6 glued, which represents a company logo 3.
  • the label 6 has punched holes, see above that the marker 4 when painting over the outer 8 and inner 9 edges of the The label 6 shows the logo invisibly on the surface 7 of the object 2. Also after removing the label 6 (at 1) the logo remains as not marked Back surface 5 in the invisible UV film 4.
  • the invention is suitable for reliably identifying equipment against Theft.
