Definitions

  • the invention relates to a security element for security papers, documents of value or identity cards, which is designed self-supporting and has two different optically variable security features. Furthermore, the invention relates to a security paper and a value document with such a security element.
  • a document of value in which after its manufacture a continuous opening is punched, which is then closed on one side with a covering film projecting on all sides.
  • the cover film is transparent at least in a partial area, so that when attempting to copy the document of value, the substrate shines through and reproduced by the copying machine accordingly.
  • the cover sheet may have a security feature, such as a hologram.
  • a security document which consists of a transparent plastic carrier, on the surfaces of which the opacity-increasing printing layers are applied.
  • the security document has a security device which is unilaterally hidden by a plurality of the above-mentioned pressure layers. The layers on the other side of the carrier are applied so as to eliminate a half-window through which the security device is visible.
  • the invention has for its object to propose a security element and a security paper and a document of value, which has an increased security against counterfeiting in comparison to the prior art.
  • a security element according to the invention has two different security features, which are arranged on opposite sides of the security element and wherein the security features each have an opaque coating with breaks in the form of characters, patterns or logos and the respective opposite opaque coating in the area of the interruptions over the entire surface, so that when viewing the security element from one side only one of the security features is recognizable.
  • optically variable security features can be, for example, reflection structures which can be observed in reflection, coarse lattice structures whose optically variable impression is based solely on their reflective properties, thin-film elements or optically variable imprints;
  • Ink contains at least one optically variable pigment, such as liquid crystal pigments or interference layer pigments.
  • the security element may have any combination of optically variable security features.
  • the other security features which can be used according to the invention can be any desired printed images, semi-transparent or screened metal layers.
  • any printing inks can be used which may also have machine-detectable properties, such as luminescent, magnetic or electrically conductive properties.
  • the security element according to the invention can be used particularly advantageously in security papers or value documents which have a continuous opening.
  • a value document according to the in the WO 95/10420 As described prior art, which has only one security feature in the region of the opening, there is only one side on which the security feature can be viewed correctly and completely. Viewed from the back, the security feature is either not recognized at all or only mirrored.
  • the security element according to the invention is arranged in the region of the opening, a complete and laterally correct security feature can be recognized from both sides. This increases the protection against counterfeiting, since the opening, if it was produced by simple punching, can be generated just as easily by a counterfeiter.
  • the double-sided security element is not easy to adjust. Especially not if there is a substantive relationship between the two security features or the security features represent different views of the same subject.
  • the first optically variable security feature may represent the front view of a subject such as an eagle or the face portion of a portrait
  • the second optically variable security feature represents the back of the eagle or the back of the portrait.
  • the two security features are also preferably arranged congruently, so that a counterfeiter must overcome the additional problem of the register-containing arrangement.
  • the security element according to the invention also offers particular advantages if the security features contain readable information, which is preferably identical in both security features and because of the double layering of the security element can always be read in the correct direction.
  • a machine-testable layer can be arranged between the security features.
  • This can be at least one IR-absorbing, electrically conductive or magnetic layer.
  • Several such layers can also be arranged between the security features.
  • these intermediate layers do not have to be full-surface, but may be designed in the form of codes or other information.
  • the security element consists of a plastic film, which is provided on both sides with at least one opaque coating.
  • Each of these opaque coatings has discontinuities, preferably in the form of characters, patterns or logos. These interruptions are arranged offset from one another here. That is, in the region in which the one opaque coating has breaks, the opposite opaque coating is made over the entire surface. In this way, it is ensured that the security element on each page has only one side-by-side recognizable information.
  • the opaque coatings are preferably metal layers, but also other coatings, such as color layers can be used. Combinations are also possible in which the first security feature consists of a metal layer of any desired color and the second consists of an opaque ink layer or an optically variable printing layer or a thin-layer coating. It is also possible to use layers or printing inks that show different colors when viewed from above and in the background.
  • the metals used here may additionally have different colors and / or be made translucent. If at least one of the layers is translucent, the interruptions in the opposite layer can also be detected in transmitted light. The translucency can be generated via the layer thickness or the use of grids. These possible embodiments of the metal layer can also be used in all other embodiments described below, in which metal layers are addressed. In the used For example, metals include aluminum, iron, copper, gold, nickel. The term "metal" in the context of the invention, any alloys understood.

  • the "window areas" where the security threads on the security paper surface are directly accessible and thus verifiable, are provided alternately on the front and back of the paper.
  • the security element according to the invention can also be used to remedy this problem, even if the security paper has window areas on one side.
  • the security element can be used not only to secure security papers or documents of value, but also to secure counterfeit goods of any kind.
  • the security element may have any outline contours and, for example, round, oval, rectangular, trapezoidal, star-shaped or strip-shaped.

  • the security feature 7 arranged on the opposite side of the carrier material 33 consists of a printed image 40 which is covered by a semitransparent layer 41.
  • This semitransparent layer 41 may be a thin, translucent, full-surface metal layer or a screened metal layer.
  • a multilayer structure which, for example, has a diffraction structure analogous to the security feature 6.
  • a dielectric transparent layer instead of the metal layer 35, a dielectric transparent layer has to be used, which on the one hand reveals the imprint 40 and, on the other hand, makes the diffraction structures visible in reflection.
  • the semitransparent layer 41 can also be arranged on the same side of the carrier material 33 under the security feature 6.
  • the metal layer 35 also has interruptions of any shape.
  • the interruptions can also have the form of a larger area with any outline shape, such as square, round or rectangular. These interruptions can be seen when viewing the security element 3 from the direction A in reflected light.
  • the semitransparent layer 41 arranged below the security feature 6 ensures that the imprint 40 can not be recognized practically from this viewing direction. Only when viewed in transmitted light, the pressure 40 through the interruptions 42 through. When viewing the security element from the viewing direction B, however, only the imprint 40 can be clearly seen, since here too the semitransparent layer 41 obscures the security feature 6.
  • a further embodiment of a non-inventive security element 3 is shown.
  • the security feature 6 consists in this case of a plastic layer, are introduced into the diffraction structures, and then at least partially provided with a metal layer 35 is.
  • the security feature 7 consists of a print 40, which is visually separated from security feature 6 by an opaque white print layer 42.
  • both the security feature 6 and the security feature 7 each consist of an opaque coating having interruptions 44, 46 in certain areas. It is essential that the opaque coating 45 in the region of the interruptions 44 has no interruptions, that is, that it is executed over its entire surface in this area. Conversely, the opaque coating 43 in the area of the interruptions 46 is executed over its entire surface. In this way, it is ensured that the information represented by the interruptions 44 can only be recognized by one side of the security element 3 and, in the case of text, can always be read in the correct direction.
  • the opaque coating 43, 45 may be any desired color layers and / or metal layers.
  • the layers 43, 45 may have different color, wherein in the case of metal layers, the different color can also be generated by additional Aufdrukken a translucent colored lacquer layer. It is also possible to use optically variable printing inks or metallic effect paints which are applied to the carrier material 33 as a negative pressure.
  • metal layers are used for the opaque coating 43, 45, these can of course be combined with diffraction structures, as already explained.
  • diffraction structures are used as a security feature, they can also be embodied as transparent diffraction elements by replacing the metal layer with a dielectric layer having a corresponding refractive index. Under certain circumstances, this dielectric layer may also be a corresponding adhesive layer which serves as a connecting element to a further security feature or the final substrate.
  • the security features have metal layers, they can also be made semitransparent or in the form of a screened metal layer.
  • Fig. 13 shows a further embodiment of the value document according to the invention.
  • the opening 2 in the banknote 1 is closed on both sides by a respective security feature 27, 28. That is, the security element 3 is not prepared in this case as a uniform layer structure and then arranged in the region of the opening, but the items of the security element 3, that is, the security features 27, 28 are arranged separately from each other on one side of the opening.
  • the already described security features 6, 7 can be applied analogously. They also show the same optical effects and are also in terms of the information shown in an analogous relationship to each other.
  • This in Fig. 1 illustrated security element 3 may have any outline shapes.
  • it can be round, oval, rectangular, star-shaped or trapezoidal.
  • the outline contour can be adapted to the outline contour of the opening 2 or match this.
  • the security element 3 may also be designed in the form of a strip which extends over the entire width or length of the document of value. This embodiment is particularly useful if a security paper is used for the production of the value document and the security element 3 is already to be applied to the security paper in a continuous form.
  • Fig. 14 shows a section of such a security paper 30 in supervision.
  • Security elements 3 in the form of strips are applied to the paper 30 at appropriate intervals from each other in a continuous hot embossing process.
  • This paper web 30 is then printed in further processing steps and cut into individual documents.
  • Fig. 15 shows a cross section through this paper web 30 along the line D - D. It can be seen that the paper web 30 has under the security element 3 at certain intervals openings 2. Preferably, the openings 2 are arranged at such a distance that each subsequent individual document in each case has an opening 2. The openings 2 were produced here during the production of the paper web 30, which is why the edges 31 of the openings 2 are formed irregular and fibrous.
  • the security feature may also be implemented as a security thread that is embedded in the security paper.
  • the security paper preferably has openings on both sides, so-called windows.
