Definitions

  • the invention relates to a carrier provided with a perforation pattern arranged by laser, which perforation pattern provides an image depending on the angle of view.
  • Such a carrier is known from the Netherlands patent application 1012460 .
  • the effect of an image depending on the angle of view is herein achieved by arranging perforations at an oblique angle in the carrier of a certain thickness, for instance 0.8 mm in the Netherlands passport.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a carrier which can be thick (for instance about 0.8 mm) as well a thin (for instance about 0.1 mm), wherein such an effect can be achieved.
  • WO-A-97/18 092 discloses a carrier which is provided with a perforation pattern applied by laser, wherein the perforation pattern comprises a number of perforations which perforation pattern provides an image depending on the angle of view, wherein at least some of the perforations have an oval shape.
  • the present invention provides a carrier according to claim 1.
  • An oval is a shape without acute angles, and can thus be arranged more easily with a laser.
  • the invention is however in no way limited to such oval openings; it is for instance possible to arrange rectangular holes with rounded ends; the effect according to the invention is herein also achieved.
  • the perforation pattern at least partly comprises perforations with an oval area, the smallest dimension of which is smaller than the smallest dimension which can be realized with a laser light source with a wavelength of 10.6 ⁇ m.
  • the present invention thus also provides a method according to claim 6.
  • the invention therefore also provides a device for arranging a laser pattern in a carrier which is characterized in that the device is adapted to arrange oval perforations, wherein the device is adapted to generate a laser beam with a wavelength which is smaller than 10.6 ⁇ m.
  • Figure 1a shows a carrier 1, which is for instance formed by a document representing value such as a card which is for instance incorporated in a passport. Only two openings 2a and 2b are arranged herein for the purpose of elucidation, wherein opening 2a is smaller in the direction of the shown cross-section than that of opening 2b in the same direction. In the case of a straight angle of view, wherein the light beams to be caught by the eye are shown by lines 3a respectively 3b, it has been found that the amount of transmitted light is proportional to the width of perforation 2a respectively 2b. It is assumed here - for the sake of simplicity - that the dimensions are the same in the direction transversely of the shown cross-section.
  • Figure 1b shows the same carrier 1 in which the same openings 2a, 2b respectively are arranged.
  • an oblique angle of view which is represented by light beams 4a, 4b respectively, it has been found that both light beams are narrowed. They are narrowed by the same width.
  • opening 2a is smaller than opening 2b, the relative decrease in the light beam width at the small opening 2a is greater than that at the opening 2b.
  • the relation between the thickness of the carrier and the size of the openings is important.
  • the described effect is found to still work in carriers which are as thin as a sheet of paper.
  • the edge of the opening will not be wholly cylindrical when laser equipment is used; the phenomenon whereby the material is removed occurring as a result of supplying laser energy is formed on the one hand by evaporation and disintegration of the material, but also due to phenomena resembling combustion.
  • the removed material will hereby not have a precisely cylindrical form, whereby variations in the above outlined model result.
  • FIG. 2 shows a pattern of 8x5 openings substantially formed by round openings.
  • a group of openings with the configuration of the letter P is embodied as an oval opening.
  • the longitudinal axis of these openings extends in one direction. It is herein ensured that the surface area of the oval openings is the same as the surface area of the round openings.
  • These photos can be formed by the image which is normally visible, i.e. at a straight angle of view, wherein the second image only becomes visible during tilting.
  • Figure 3 shows another embodiment wherein a pattern is arranged of elongate perforations 9 with a longitudinal axis in a first direction.
  • Some of the perforations of the pattern, i.e. perforations 10, are likewise oval but have the longitudinal axis in a direction extending perpendicularly thereof.
  • the surface area of both types of oval opening 9, 10 is herein chosen such that at a normal, i.e. straight, angle of view, a first pattern can be seen, for instance a photo.
  • a first pattern can be seen, for instance a photo.
  • the second pattern becomes visible, in the present case a letter E.
  • Figure 4 shows a perforation pattern made up of rectangular openings with rounded ends instead of oval openings.
  • the letter "A” herein becomes visible during tilting.
