Definitions

  • the invention relates to security label sets, with at least two security labels according to the preamble of claim 1 and their use for counterfeit protection and / or proof of originality and / or gray market tracking of objects of any kind.
  • gray market trade This is to be understood as the trade in original articles via distribution channels which are not planned. Again, the manufacturer can suffer considerable economic damage. Appropriate security features such as serial numbers and their controls allow the manufacturer to identify products at the item level. He can then check whether a product via the intended distribution channel to the Customer has arrived or is in the intended distribution channel, and thus reveal and prevent gray market trade.
  • security labels are suitable for labeling the products for proof of originality or for gray-scale combating.
  • a number of different security features have been proposed which may be part of such security labels and which are intended to protect the products as well as the security labels themselves from imitation.
  • it is known, for example, a) printing to produce certain features, if appropriate using so-called security inks or printing inks, b) electronic identification (eg radio frequency identification (RFID), c) holographic features, d) doping with taggants (chemical or physical markers) or e) special safety numbers.
  • RFID radio frequency identification
  • safety label sets are known in the form of sign sets, which serve to identify several components of an automobile.
  • sign sets are supplied as unlabeled rolls of laser-markable film to the car manufacturer and processed there to an individual sign set consisting of several security labels.
  • the present invention is based on the problem to provide a security label set that is optimized in terms of handling and diverse uses.
  • the security label set according to the invention has at least two security labels. These security labels are arranged directly or indirectly on a common carrier. Indirect means in this context that between the respective security label and the carrier further layers, such as an additional film are arranged, whereas in the immediate arrangement on the support no layers are provided between the security label and the carrier.
  • This common arrangement of the security labels ensures easy handling, since thus the sets are provided as a whole and the Security labels can be applied as desired, without the risk of losing or swapping individual security labels. It is further provided that the security labels are arranged on the carrier on different substrates.
  • This arrangement is associated with a high effort compared to the provision of a constant role, but has the advantage that the security labels can be adapted to a wide variety of requirements, for example, in relation to the number of desired security labels, whereabouts on the support, adaptation to the ground in the application by different adhesives etc.
  • the customer does not process the security labels themselves and is therefore freed of accumulating ballast by cutting the roll material.
  • security labels which are known to the person skilled in the art can be used without restrictions as security labels.
  • Usable security labels carry open and / or hidden security features. These can be present in particular in the form of imprints. Microtexts and micrographics or even guilloches can be used, for example, as well as colors that change their visual impression depending on the external influence or viewing angle, which include, for example, so-called tilting colors. It is also possible to provide the security labels with taggants.
  • Useful security labels can also have embossed structures, in particular holographic structures.
  • electronic tags eg RFID

  • a card in particular a plastic card.
  • Such a configuration has the advantage over the known rolls that the label set remains captive even after the actual labeling and shaping of the labels.
  • the risk of unintentional release can be reduced by the design of the carrier as a card.
  • Unintentional release of a carrier usually begins at a bend of the carrier material, that is usually a film. Since here a card and thus a relatively stiff material is used as a carrier, the carrier is protected against kinks and thus the security labels against detachment of such kinks.
  • At least two of the security labels have on their underside adhesive layers with mutually different adhesives.
  • this security label set enables the adaptation of the security labels to different fields of use, such as, for example, bonding to the cardboard of a packaging and adhesion to the product itself, for example to plastic, metal, leather or the like.
  • the adhesive layers can thus be adapted to the respective adhesive substrate and thus apply the required bond strength and durability. Such an adaptation is not possible in particular with security label sets made of rolls.
  • the security labels preferably have a serial number.
  • the serial numbers between the individual security labels are advantageously correlated with each other. For example, they may be identical or partially identical, or may be different from one another by a particular run value, generally one or more alphanumeric characters, while others additional features on all security labels of the same security label set may be the same.
  • the security labels within a security label set may also include a feature that indicates their affiliation with this one security label set, but that differs from security labels of other security label sets.

  • the serial numbers may optionally be in coded form. Common coding formats are barcodes, matrix and 2D codes.
  • the coding can also be introduced in electronic or magnetic form (eg as RFID). Other open or hidden coding formats are also advantageously usable.

  • warranty or loyalty cards can be entered via the Internet to provide additional information about the product or to participate in customer loyalty programs, which are often also designed as a raffle.
  • This additional information can also be used for authentication of the product itself in an embodiment according to the invention for additional authentication of the card and thus via the correlation of the labels of the security label set.
  • the combination of a product and a warranty card, as well as possibly an additional packaging represent an application which can be operated particularly advantageously by the use of security label sets according to the invention.
  • the security label sets according to the invention offer the advantage in the process of equipping the product and possibly other objects associated with the product, such as a packaging or a warranty card, that the product to be secured is a series of products to be secured and possibly further with the product
  • Product i related objects a security label set, preferably a security label set i that differs in particular at least part of a serial number of other security label sets that are provided to secure the entire product series, can be assigned.
  • Personnel or a machine may then apply the security tags included within the scope of the security tag set at the appropriate locations in and / or on the product i and, if applicable, on other objects associated with the product i.
  • this can be considered Support material for the entire security label set. It itself is already provided with the appropriate security label, while the others required for securing the product are available on a release label for labeling. After labeling, the release label material is recycled, for example.
  • these sets can also be assigned security labels on or as a flag.
  • the invention further relates to a security label set arrangement.
  • Such an arrangement has at least one security label set.
  • the security label set has at least two security labels, which in turn are arranged directly or indirectly on a common carrier.
  • This carrier is now designed as a release label, that is, the labels are non-destructively detachable from this release label and reusable. So they are only temporarily arranged until their actual use on the release label, preferably glued to this.
  • the release label in turn is detachably arranged on a web-shaped liner. On this liner, a plurality of mutually different security tag sets are preferably arranged on independent release labels.
  • This arrangement has the advantage that a plurality of security label sets can be delivered simultaneously in a simple manner, but the assignment of the individual labels to a security label set nevertheless remains. A thorough mixing of the security labels of various security label sets is effectively prevented.
  • the individual security label sets can later be applied, preferably glued, to objects, such as a carrier card, in particular a plastic card, for further distribution or processing. Such an object may optionally have another label which has been applied in another way, in particular has been laminated to a plastic card.
  • the web-shaped liner is wound up as a roll, whereby handling and transport of a plurality of security label sets are significantly simplified.
  • the security label set is designed so that the web-shaped liner is reusable after detachment of the security label sets. This is particularly possible if the release label is removable without residue from the web-shaped liner.
  • the web-shaped liner preferably has a siliconized surface.
  • the security label sets arranged on the release label as well as the security labels themselves are further preferably designed in particular according to the previous description, to which reference is made in this regard.
  • Fig. 1 shows a top view of a security label set 1 according to the invention.
  • This security label set 1 has three security labels 2, 3, 4 and a common carrier 5.
  • the security labels 2, 4 are arranged directly on the carrier 5, while the security label 3 is arranged on an intermediate carrier 6, which in turn is arranged on the carrier 5.
  • the carrier 5 is here and preferably designed as a plastic card.
  • the intermediate carrier 6 is a release liner, ie a material that enables the non-destructive detachment of a glued-on security label.
  • the intermediate carrier 6 has for this purpose a siliconized surface.
  • the security labels 2, 4, on the one hand, and the security label 3, on the other hand, are thus arranged on mutually differing bases, which allows a high degree of flexibility in the choice of the possible adhesives for the security labels.
  • the security tag 2 is presently permanently connected to the carrier 5, i. it is only removable with at least partial destruction of it.
  • the security label is here laminated to the carrier 5, an alternative represents, for example, a permanent bond.
  • the security label 4 is adhered to the carrier 5, with an adhesive that is reversibly removable from the carrier 5.
  • the security tag 4 may then be otherwise connected to a product after removal from the carrier 5.
  • the security label 4 is sewn to a textile.
  • the security label 3 is detachably arranged on the intermediate carrier 6, namely here glued to the intermediate carrier 6 with a reversible adhesive material.
  • the intermediate carrier 6 is detachable from the carrier 5.
  • the security label 3 is permanently connected to the intermediate carrier 6, in particular adhesively bonded thereto. This can then in turn be connected together with the security label 3 releasably connected to the carrier 5.
  • Such a configuration is particularly advantageous if it is in the intermediate carrier 6 is a textile material that is then to be sewn to the object to be secured.
  • the security labels 2, 3, 4 each have an individualization in the form of an alphanumeric string.
  • the individualization contains a product identifier "ABC”, a label for the label set "ES05” and an identification of the individual label of the respective label set "E01", "E02", "E03".
