Definitions

  • the invention relates to a security document and a method for its production with a preferably colored security feature and a verification method.
  • a large number of security documents are known from the prior art. These include, for example, identity cards, passports, driver's licenses, identification cards, visas, but also labels and packaging protected against counterfeiting and other types of value documents such as banknotes, shares, securities, to name just a few.
  • Security documents have in common that they include at least one feature that makes unauthorized production, imitation, falsification or the like at least significantly more difficult or even impossible. Such features are referred to as security features. Physical configurations of security features are also referred to as security elements. In this sense, every security document that necessarily includes at least one security feature also represents a security element.
  • security documents of a class for example a passport of a state
  • security documents of a class usually also have a large number of other security features that make imitation, falsification, duplication and the like more difficult and/or impossible and also verification of the document as a real document. These are therefore usually the same for all documents
  • Security elements are generally integrated into the security document in a central security document production facility.
  • the personal and/or individual information is already stored in the security document during the central production.
  • only one security document blank is produced in the central production, which is then individualized or personalized centrally or decentrally with individual and/or personal information.
  • a lenticular lens security device comprising an array of focusing lenticular elements arranged over a corresponding array of pairs of imaging strips such that from a first viewing direction a first imaging strip is visible when viewed through a respective focusing lenticular element and from a second viewing direction a second image swath, distinct from the first image swath, is visible from each pair when viewed through one of the focusing lenticular elements.
  • a method for producing a security document with a security feature dependent on the viewing angle and such a security document are known.
  • the method described there comprises the steps of: printing print information onto a substrate layer; Integrating the printed substrate layer into a document body and introducing microlenses into the surface of the document body, the microlenses being introduced after the printed substrate layers have been integrated into the document body, in that the print information integrated in the document body is optically recorded and at least one feature of the recorded print information is evaluated, and on the basis of the evaluated feature one or more tools are aligned relative to the document body and then the microlenses are introduced into the surface with an exact register for the integrated print information.
  • the printed information is preferably colored and thus evokes different color impressions in an observer.
  • a data carrier in which markings in the form of patterns, letters, numbers and/or images are introduced by a laser beam, which are visible due to local changes in the optical properties of the data carrier caused by the laser beam and resulting from material transformations.
  • the data carrier comprises a laser-sensitive recording layer which is transparent in the visible spectral range and is provided with a surface relief in the form of a lenticular grid.
  • the markings are introduced into the recording layer with the laser beam from different directions through the lenticular grid and are recognizable when viewed later from the same directions.

If ever picture elements with different optical properties such. B. different shades of gray via different blackenings, so from every direction all different blackenings and thus types of picture elements can usually be seen. A given gray level does not occur under only one of the directions.
  • the invention is therefore based on the technical object of creating an improved security document, a method for its production and a verification method which do not have or reduce the disadvantages known from the prior art.
  • the invention is based on the idea of storing personalizing and/or individualizing information, possibly also non-personalizing and/or non-personalizing information, in a document body.
  • the storage takes place by means of at least two different types of picture elements, which can each be arranged at grid positions of a picture element grid assigned to the respective picture element type.
  • the thus at least two picture element grids are matched to one another in such a way that a corresponding grid position of another picture element grid corresponds to each grid position of one picture element grid.
  • the mutually corresponding grid locations of the picture element grids are adjacent to one another in the security document.
  • the raster positions of the various image element rasters are preferably offset relative to one another laterally with respect to a document surface, ie are not arranged in a superimposed manner.
  • the information is stored in the body of the document in a window area which is designed to be transparent so that it can be looked through without the stored information being present.
  • the information is stored in the body of the document in such a way that it is perceptible when optically capturing it from above.
  • the graphic information can thus, for example, be printed on the top or formed inside the document body, for example by printing the information on a substrate layer before this is joined to further substrate layers to form the document body.

Under a preferred detection direction of the at least two preferred detection directions, only the picture elements of one type are perceptible and under another preferred detection direction of the at least two preferred detection direction, only the picture elements of a different type of picture elements are perceptible.
  • the graphic information is preferably designed in color by using monochrome picture elements of a color system to create the graphic information. If, for example, cyan-colored, magenta-colored and yellow-colored image elements are used, pixels of any desired color impression of the CYM color system can be generated from three raster points that are assigned to one another. Thus, it is possible to store full color graphic information in the document body using picture elements of three types.
  • the lenses of the lenticular grid formed on the back are arranged with respect to the individual grid positions of the different picture element grids such that only the picture elements of one type, ie in this example a basic color of the color system, can be detected through the lenses in different detection directions.

  • the crossing points of vertical and horizontal lines parallel to one another can also be regarded as grid points of a grid made up of rectangular cells. In this case, for example, a length of the rectangles can be varied systematically in the grid along a designated direction, so that, for example, the perpendicular lines are at greater distances from the edges than the perpendicular lines in a center of the grid.
  • Similar grids are grids that have a geometric structure that corresponds to one another, preferably an almost identical structure, and that are shifted relative to one another only with regard to their positioning in space.
  • Grid points corresponding to one another of such grids of the same type are those grid points which have a minimum distance from one another. If one starts from a raster position of a raster, then the adjacent raster position of another raster is that raster position which has a minimum of the first raster position.
  • the mutually adjacent, mutually corresponding raster positions of different picture element rasters are offset laterally, e.g. in relation to the front side of the document body.
