Definitions

  • the invention relates to a document of value, such as a banknote, identity card, passport or the like, which has a security paper and a marking produced by means of a laser, wherein the security paper has at least one partial area with a coating. Furthermore, the invention relates to a security paper and method for producing a value document or security paper according to the invention.
  • Banknotes, checks, tickets, tickets and other documents of value, in particular made of paper, are equipped with security features for the purpose of forgery-proofing, by means of which the authenticity of the value documents can be checked.
  • US 6,139,065 discloses a document of value comprising a security paper and a print.
  • the value document may further be provided with a security thread.
  • the imprint on the document of value and an optionally arranged on the security thread imprint are applied with conventional printing methods, so-called pressure-form-bonded printing method, but not by means of a laser.
  • WO 03/023723 A1 For example, a document of value is known in which two materials, which have different resistances to a laser and are arranged adjacent to one another, are deposited on a substrate, which can be made of paper, for example.
  • the two materials deposited on the substrate have a laser mark, which is produced by sublimation of a part of the deposited material under the action of the laser beam.
  • the substrate itself is not substantially burned or sublimated by the laser beam.
  • the object of the present invention is to propose a value document and a security paper with an improved visual security feature, which has a high security against counterfeiting, and a method for producing such a security feature.
  • a security document according to the invention such as a banknote, a passport or the like, has a security paper and a laser-generated marking, wherein the security paper is provided with a coating at least in a partial area, and the marking over the boundary area between coating and security paper extends. Since the laser is continuously guided over the document of value in the form of the marking and the laser radiation influences the coating and the paper substrate differently, the marking shows a different appearance in the different areas, wherein these different appearances merge directly into one another. The marking thus appears at the transition in the boundary region between coating and security paper with perfect Passerhaltmaschine, whereby the achieved with this mark counterfeiting security compared to a reprint is very high.
  • the coating comprises at least one metal layer, e.g. Aluminum, gold, silver etc., on.
  • the metal layer is removed, so that the lying in the metal layer part of the marker is in the form of recesses in the metal layer. Since the laser beam is continuously guided across the boundary between the coating and the security paper, the negative representation of the marking merges seamlessly into a positive representation in the area of the security paper.
  • the type and color shade of the color change depends on the composition of the security paper used. This color change or color change can be enhanced by suitable additives which may be contained in the volume of the security paper, the sizing or a subsequent primer. The type of additives used depends on the type of laser used or the laser wavelength used.
  • Conceivable are laser radiation absorbing additives, such as carbon black, thermochromic substances or titanium dioxide.
  • the lying in the security paper part of the marker according to the invention can also be designed to be tactile tactile, as in the WO 204/009371 described.
  • the metal layer according to the invention may be a layer containing printed, metal pigments or metallic effect pigments or a vapor-deposited or sputtered layer.
  • the metal layer is preferably prepared on a separate carrier and applied to the security paper or document of value in the form of a label or transfer element.
  • labels or transfer elements may also comprise any further layers, such as e.g. a lacquer layer, in which diffraction structures are embossed in the form of a relief.
  • the metal layer usually serves as a reflection layer for the diffraction structures.
  • the coating may be formed as a laser-sensitive recording layer, wherein it has at least one component absorbing laser radiation of a selected wavelength.
  • a color mixture which has a mixture component which absorbs the laser radiation and a mixture component transparent to the laser radiation is suitable as the laser-sensitive recording layer.
  • the marking is due to a caused by the action of the laser radiation irreversible change in the optical Properties of the color mixture visually recognizable.
  • the absorbing mixture component may for example be bleached, vaporized, changed in its reflection properties under the action of the laser radiation or converted by a chemical reaction into a material having different optical properties.
  • the color mixture preferably contains optically variable color pigments, with transparent mixture components, in particular optically variable liquid-crystal pigments, being used for the laser radiation, and, for example, optically variable interference-layer pigments for the absorbing mixture component.
  • Such a coating shows a change in color when the viewing angle is changed, the perceptible color impression representing a superimposition of the color impressions of the various optically variable color pigments.
  • the color impression of the interference layer pigments disappears or changes, so that the lasered areas contrast in color with the surroundings.
  • the lasered areas still show an optically variable effect. If the lasered marking extends over the boundary region between the coating and the security paper, the optically variable fraction of the marking is converted into a non-optically variable fraction which is produced by lasering the paper substrate. This gives the impression that the marking has been produced with different methods in an exact register.
  • a very similar appearance of the marking can be produced if the parts of the mixture which are transparent and absorbing for laser radiation are arranged one above the other in separate layers.
  • Nd YAG lasers having a wavelength of 1064 nm are preferably used.
  • the laser can be used in continuous wave mode or in pulsed mode.
  • pulsed operation a visible variation in the degree of blackening over the course of the mark can be generated in the security paper.
  • alphanumeric characters can be represented, for example serial numbers of the value documents or any codes, such as one-dimensional or two-dimensional bar codes or blind codes, any symbols, graphics, patterns, images or micro-writing. Any alphanumeric characters, such as date, time, batch name, or lettering are possible.
  • Each mark according to the invention extends beyond the boundary of the coating into the security paper, whereby at the transition the appearance of the mark changes with perfect passer-like behavior.
  • the value document according to the invention may contain further security features, such as a security thread, an optically variable security element, a security imprint, such. As a gravure printing, or machine-readable security features, such as luminescent or magnetic substances have. If the document of value has a security thread, the inventive laser marking can also in Be provided for the security thread.
  • the value documents according to the invention can also be used to secure products of any kind.
  • the value document according to the invention is any document whose essential component is a security paper, such as a banknote, a check, a visa, a label, a passport or another document to be secured from security paper.
  • a security paper such as a banknote, a check, a visa, a label, a passport or another document to be secured from security paper.
  • the laser marking step takes place at any stage in the production of the value document. So it may be useful to provide the security paper after production in roll form with a corresponding mark. This is the case, in particular, when the security paper is provided in continuous form with a film coating, such as a diffraction-optically effective, for example, strip-shaped security element, and this security element is to be provided with a marking according to the invention as described above.
  • a film coating such as a diffraction-optically effective, for example, strip-shaped security element
  • the step of laser marking is preferably carried out as one of the last working steps in the production of the value document. If the value documents are printed, for example, in the form of sheet-shaped multiple uses, the laser marking can still take place on the sheet or already on the cut, finished value document. The latter is particularly useful if individual information, such as a serial number, is to be generated by means of the laser marking:
  • a particular safety advantage of the present invention is the fact that the effect described can not be adjusted by simple means.
  • the use of lasers requires high investments and in-depth technical know-how, which goes far beyond the level of knowledge required for the use of conventional printing presses or digital printing devices.
  • a further advantage of the invention is that the laser marking can be carried out without contact in a speed typical for printing companies.
  • each document can be individually marked, for example, by integrating the serial number or another individualizing feature as a security feature in the value document.
  • Fig. 1 shows a value document 1 according to the invention in the form of a banknote.
  • the value document 1 according to the invention has a marking 2 in the form of a number sequence, which was generated by the action of a laser beam and extends into the edge region of the banknote 1.
  • Fig. 2 shows an enlarged detail of the area A of Fig.1 ,
  • the transition of the marking 2 which is essential to the invention, over the boundary region between the coating 3 and the security paper 4 within the illustrated "4" can be clearly seen.
  • the marker 2 continues seamlessly and without offset. Due to the darker gray level of the marking in the area of the security paper 4, the transition is clearly visible and appears with perfect Passerhaltmaschine, which would be unavailable for a printed mark.
  • the Fig. 3 shows a section through the value document 1 along the line BB.
  • a coating 3 in the form of a security element 3 is arranged in the region of the marking 2, the security element 3 consisting of a transfer element.
  • the transfer element is attached to the value document 1 by means of an adhesive layer 5.
  • an adhesive layer 5 Between the adhesive layer 5 and a plastic layer 7, in particular lacquer layer 7, there is a metal layer 6.
  • Fig. 4 shows a section through the value document 1 along the line CC. It can be seen that this metal layer 6 is missing in the region of the marking 2. In the labeling or marking process with the laser, the metal layer 6 is changed so that it is no longer visible.
  • the reference numeral 8 denotes the area acted upon by the laser radiation.
  • Fig. 5 shows a section through the value document 1 along the line DD. It is a caused by the laser marking color change 9 in the security paper (substrate) to see 4, which is part of the mark belonging to and recognizable in supervision "8". In this example, an "8" is shown with a black level corresponding to a dark gray level. The laser power must be adjusted to the desired degree of blackening.
  • the appearance or the representation of the marking 2 changes in the boundary region A.
  • the marking 2 is represented in the form of recesses 8 in the metal layer 6, ie as a negative representation, while the marking 2 outside the security element 3 in the form of color changes, ie as a positive representation exists.
  • Fig. 6 shows a security paper (substrate) 20, such as a banknote or other value document, on which a coating 22 of a color mixture of two mixture components 24 and 26 is applied.
  • a security paper substrate 20
  • the mixture components 24 is transparent to the radiation of the infrared laser used below for marking, the other mixture component 26 absorbs the laser radiation.
  • the marking layer 22 has been irradiated with the marking laser with suitably selected laser parameters to remove, alter, or deactivate the absorbent mixture component 26 by the action of the laser radiation.
  • the absorbent blend component 26 may be bleached, vaporized, altered in reflective properties, or converted to a material having other optical properties by a chemical reaction.
  • the optical properties of the color mixture in the region 28 are irreversibly changed by the irradiation. Possible effects include a color change, the generation of a color change, the lightening of a color, the change in the tipping color of an effect color mixture or the local change of the polarization properties or the luminescence properties of the coating 22.
  • an information-carrying printing layer may be provided between the substrate 20 and the coating 22, and the change in the optical properties of the coating 22 in the production of transparent portions 28 in an otherwise opaque layer, so that the information of the print layer in these areas after the laser irradiation are visible.
  • a coating 32 is applied to a substrate 30 which has a first transparent layer 34 for the laser radiation of the selected wavelength, an absorbing layer 36 and a second layer 38 transparent to the laser radiation.
  • At least one of the absorbent or transparent layers contains optically variable color pigments.
  • the transparent layer 34 may include liquid crystal pigments that exhibit a reflection-angle-changing reflection color.
  • the absorbent layer 36 has been removed in a partial region 40, wherein the transparent layer 38 lying above the absorbent layer 36 has been entrained by ablation therewith.
  • the layers 34, 38 transparent to the laser radiation can be opaque and colored in the visible spectral range.
  • the shape and shape of the removed area 40 can bring a variety of markings into the coating 32, in which, for example, an optically variable color effect of a liquid crystal layer 34 emerges in contrast to a monochrome surrounding area of a second transparent printed layer 38.
