Definitions
- the invention relates to a multilayer card-shaped data carrier with a core layer of paper carrying an individualization by which it is assigned to a person or an institution.
- the invention relates to payment cards, e.g. Credit cards or bank cards, entrance tickets, identity cards or data pages for passport books.
- a lenticular lens structure is also formed just above the security element.
- the knolls of the lenticular lens structure rise above the surface and form raised ribs.
- the Lentikularlinsenstrukrur causes a viewing angle-dependent optical effect.
- various effects can be achieved. Among other things, the effect of an apparent movement or a color effect can be achieved.
- a multi-layer card-shaped data carrier in the form of a security card is also known, whose upper side is formed over its entire surface as a lenticular lens structure.
- the lenticular lens structure is set up so that an individualization applied to an inner layer can be recognized only at a certain viewing angle.
- DE 10 2009 004 128 A1 shows a data carrier which is based on a multilayer composite which contains at least one paper layer. The data carrier is printed and embossed with a relief which, together with the print, produces a viewing angle-dependent effect. Printing and embossing can be done in any order. In one variant, the stamping is used as a security feature.
- the solution can be combined with holograms or other diffractive structures.
- DE 4441 198 AI describes a card with a card body, in whose
- Top is imprinted a lens structure.
- the lens structure penetrates a paint layer applied to the upper side.
- the data carrier according to the invention provides effective mechanical separation protection between a cover layer with security elements and a paper-based core layer provided with an individualization.
- another security element is advantageously provided that can be visually checked without any aids.
- the invention provides a connection between the cover layer with the security elements and the paper core layer provided with an individualization, which is not reversibly separable. In a separation either the individualization is at least partially irreversibly destroyed or the cover layer with the security elements is impaired so that a reconnection with a previously separated paper layer is immediately recognizable or the paper core layer breaks when separating at some points, so that an uneven separation surface arises, which is easily recognizable when recombined with another layer of paper.
- embossing at least in a part of the surface of the data carrier to form a relief which extends into the core layer and which preferably almost completely punctures the core layer at some points.
- the relief is from the cover side or from the back impressed forth and can miterFassen existing security elements on the top.
- the texture depth of the relief relative to the total thickness of the data carrier is relatively large and may correspond to it, i. the texture depth can be up to 100% of the total thickness of the undeformed media.
- the relief furthermore preferably has a viewing-angle-dependent optical effect which superimposes the pattern or motif formed by the relief in such a way that both the relief and the viewing angle-dependent optical effect can be recognized.
- a viewing-angle-dependent optical effect which superimposes the pattern or motif formed by the relief in such a way that both the relief and the viewing angle-dependent optical effect can be recognized.
- the individualization and existing security elements it carries its own information, which becomes visible in a relay-specific optical effect.
- the effect is that the relief produces a different visual impression at different viewing angles.
- a first information is displayed at a first viewing angle and second information is visible at a second viewing angle.
- the relief specifically detects part of the individualization. As a result of the resulting relatively strong deformation of the individualization, it is impossible or at least considerably more difficult to expose the individualization in the relief area by separating the cover layer of the paper layer clean.
- the core layer consists of paper and the individualization is carried out in the form of an inkjet printing or by a thermal transfer process.
- the relief is carried out in an advantageous manner as stamping. In an advantageous embodiment, this has the relief height differences and structure widths of up to 200 ⁇ on; expedient amount of height differences up to 100 ⁇ , particularly expedient up to 80 ⁇ .
- the relief embossing can be carried out in embodiments so that it not only covers the cover layer and the core layer, but continues into the lower-side protective layer, so that the relief on the bottom of the disk in attenuated form is perceptible.
- embossed structures are generated in the data carrier, which show other optical effects.
- This is preferably done with a single die in which all or at least several embossed structures are applied at the same time.
- the die has the same size as the data carrier.
- the cover layer has a particular useful embodiment, a thickness of 1 to 10 ⁇ and the core layer has a thickness of 50 to 200 ⁇ .
- 1 shows a cross section through a data carrier before carrying out the deformation
- 2 shows a cross section through a data carrier after introduction of a relief

The lower-side protective layer 8 may also be omitted in some embodiments. Furthermore, additional layers can be provided with additional functions, for example, a textile layer between the core layer 2 and cover layer 4 can be attached to stabilize the structure of the data carrier 1.
- the core layer 2 is preferably made of paper or based on paper. Additives, eg safety substances, can be added to the paper.
- the core layer 2 is often provided with a background design printing layer 9, which covers the entire surface of the data carrier 1 or at least the largest part thereof.
- the design print layer 9 is difficult to reproduce and, in addition to its optical effect, also constitutes a security feature.
- the bonding layer 3 is a transparent or semi-transparent adhesive film, which consists for example of a hotmelt material. It has a thickness of 1 to 10 ⁇ , suitably from 3 to 8 ⁇ .
- the cover layer 4 is likewise transparent or semitransparent and is expediently based on an embossing lacquer. It is dimensionally stable against temperatures and pressures occurring during lamination and has a thickness of 10 to 40 ⁇ , preferably from 20 to 30 ⁇ .

- the support layer 15 is suitably made of plastic and has a thickness of 30 to 100 ⁇ ; it is soluble after lamination of the cover layer 4 and is removed.
- the lower-side protective layer 8 is preferably made as an opaque or transparent plastic layer, e.g. made of polycarbonate or PET. It suitably has a thickness of 50 to 300 ⁇ . In some embodiments, the lower-side protective layer 8 is designed as a decorative layer and carries its own individualizing information, security elements and / or decorative elements. The lower-side protective layer 8 is basically optional and can also be omitted.
- the entire data carrier 1 typically has a thickness D of 100 to 300 ⁇ m, preferably of 120 to 180 ⁇ m, without a carrier layer 15.
- the individualization 5 is formed on the top surface of the core layer 2 to the top 6 back. It is designed so that it is visually recognizable by cover layer 4 and compound layer 3.
- the individualization 5 includes, for example, address or name information, individual key figures, the reproduction of handwritten signatures or photos.
- the formation of the individualization 5 happens before the bonding layer 3 and the cover layer 4 are applied. As indicated in FIG. 1, the individualization 5 can partially penetrate into the core layer 2.
- the customization 5 is expediently carried out in the form of an inkjet printing or transmitted by a thermal transfer process. Other methods for customization are also possible.
- a relief 10 having a three-dimensional structure is applied to the upper side 6. This is illustrated in FIG. 2.
- the formation of the relief 10 is expediently carried out after the data carrier 1 has been individualized, connecting layer 3 and the cover layer 4 have been applied and the carrier layer 15 has been removed.
- the formation of the relief 10 takes place before the removal of the carrier layer 15, e.g. during a lamination process for applying the cover layer 4.
- the relief 10 is tactile perceptible. Its three-dimensional structure is also such that it additionally produces an optically variable effect, which depends on the viewing angle.
- the viewing-angle-dependent optical effect expediently consists in the representation of two different pieces of information which are visible at different viewing angles.
- the optical effect is to provide viewing angle dependent alphanumeric and / or graphical information.
- the information applied in the relief 10 is designed such that at a first viewing angle, a first alphanumeric information or a first graphical pattern is recognizable and at a second viewing angle a second alphanumeric information or a second graphical pattern.
- the additionally optically variable effect brought about by the relief 10 also superimposes the effect of the optically variable element 7 formed in the cover layer 4. Both are perceptible simultaneously or independently of one another, depending on the design.
- the relief 10 is applied in an expedient embodiment in an area of the data carrier 1 in which there is no individualization 5.
- the surface area of the relief 10 is selected accordingly.
- the selected area is specially prepared, e.g. by printing a suitable base color instead of the design print 9 or above.
- the base color is preferably a metallic shiny, reflective color, e.g. a gold or silver color.
- a metallization may also be formed on the underside of the cover layer 4.
- a security element 7 can also be located in the selected area.
- an area of the data carrier 1 is selected for the relief 10, in which there is also a part of the individualization 5.
- an area is selected in which parts of an image or an alphanumeric individualization information lies, in which the mean line thickness of the individual characters is greater than the structural depth of the relief 10;
- a validity period can be selected.
- the formed on the surface of the die 20 negative 21 of the relief 10 to be produced is designed so that it can be transferred to the disk 1 in a high quality embossing process. It has correspondingly no undercuts and the structures are shaped so that the relief 10 produced has no cracks.
- the negative 21 has depressions and elevations which, when embossed in the surface of the data carrier 1, produce corresponding elevations / depressions with deep points 11 and high points 12, whose height difference can be of the order of magnitude of the thickness of the core layer 2.
- the generated low points 11 and high points 12 expediently form a visible to the naked eye; plastically acting pattern or motif, the nature of which is different from the adjacent top 6.
- the pattern may be, for example, a serrated pattern or a [] wavy pattern.
- the negative 21 has at least one peak structure 23 which projects beyond the elevations and depressions and which, during embossing, penetrates more than 66% into the core layer 2 and thus almost punctures it.
- the counter-mold 19 produced by the tip structure 23 in the relief 10 is nevertheless referred to below as punch-through.
- At least one flank of the tip structure 23 is also provided with a steep flank angle. kel ⁇ from 70 ° to 90 °, based on the top 6, executed.
- the negative 21 further has structural elements which produce relief structures 10 in the relief structure 10, which influence the reflection behavior of the relief 10 and produce an optically variable effect, which is due to the relief
- the substructures 13 are formed on the flanks of the elevations / depressions.
- the substructures 13 are small compared to the height differences between troughs
- FIG. 4 shows an enlarged perspective view of an example of a design of the substructures 13 formed in the relief 10.
- Two pyramidal or prismatic substructures 13 are formed on both sides of the flanks of the elevation / depression, which are small in comparison to the structural depth of the relief 10
- the substructures 13 each have a first flank 16 which is oriented approximately perpendicular to the top 6 and a second flank 17 which is aligned parallel or nearly parallel to the opposite flank of the flute / depression.
- the substructures 13 here consist of dormer-like structures, which are each formed out of a flank of the elevation / depression.
- the substructures 13 can be designed, for example, as a quarter sphere or as a quarter ellipse, as indicated in FIG. 5a, where also any other sections or parts of a sphere or ellipse are possible. Or they may have the shape of a saddle roof as indicated in Fig. 5b, which protrudes from the elevation / depression.
- the main axes of the substructures 13 can be arranged in any desired angular positions relative to the longitudinal axis of the elevation / depression.
- the elevations and depressions of the negative 21 are designed specifically as sharp and steep structures with flank angles ⁇ of 70 ° to 90 °, which at least in places cause a stamping effect during the embossing process, which leads to elevations of the cover layer 4.
- the cover layer injuries are intended. In addition, they complicate the separability of the core layer 2 and the cover layer 4 or the possibility once assembled layer parts together again to the initial state.
- the embossing tool 20, 22 the relief 10 is impressed from the top 6 ago by pressure in the data carrier 1.
- recesses 11 are produced on the one hand whose low points are up to 100 ⁇ , advantageously 30 to 50 ⁇ below the level of the top 6 of the undeformed data carrier 1.
- the texture depth h of the relief 10 is therefore up to 100%, ie it is up to 200 ⁇ in the embodiments considered here. Typically, it is between 10 and 100 ⁇ , especially useful between 10 and 80 ⁇ .
- the mean structure width b of the relief 10 is expediently slightly below the order of magnitude of the structure depth h and amounts to approximately% thereof, ie the structure width b is expediently up to 150 ⁇ m; particularly expedient it is between 10 and 70 ⁇ . Larger structure widths b of up to 300 ⁇ but are also possible.
- the distance of the troughs 11 from the level of the undeformed data carrier 1 is more than half the thickness of the data carrier.
- the residual material thickness at the punch-throughs is 33% to 0%, preferably 70% and 90% of the thickness D of the data carrier 1.
- the core layer 2 is thus almost severed at the punch-throughs 19. Relative to the exemplary embodiments, this means that the deep points 100 to 200 ⁇ , preferably 140 to 180 ⁇ lie below the level of the undeformed data carrier 1 at the punch-throughs 19.
- the embossing process for producing the relief 10 can be carried out at room temperature. Preferably, however, it is carried out at an elevated temperature of 50 to 200 ° C, preferably at 80 to 140 ° C.
- the pressure is basically chosen so that the deformation does not lead to cracks in the cover layer 4 or in the core layer 2; suitable pressures are, for example, 0.1 to 1.0 t / cm 2 , corresponding to about 1 to 10 MN / m 2 .
- deformation-related cracks in the cover layer 4 may also be intended in order to further increase the security against tearing attempts. In such cases, higher pressures are also considered.
- the deformation for relief formation takes place so that on the opposite side of the data carrier 1, ie on the side of the lower protective layer 8, the relief 10 is no longer perceptible and the underside of the data carrier 1 rather remains smooth. This is achieved by the counter-pressure element.
- the deformation of the data carrier 1 in the region of the relief 10 is carried out so that it continues at least weakened even into the lower-side protective layer 8. At least the system of the relief 10 is thereby still tactile perceptible on the opposite side of the data carrier 1.
- the embossing tool 20, 22 has the same or a similar size as the data carrier 1.
- further embossing structures 14 can be applied simultaneously with the relief 10 in other subregions of the data carrier 1, the other structure depths and have broad and cause other physical or optical effects.
- a microlens structure - with microlenses having a diameter of e.g. less than 50 ⁇ -, a matte structure or a Blazegitter are created, as they are known for example from the above-cited prior art.
- a microprint 14 may be embossed in another subregion.
- the simultaneous production of different embossed structures 10, 14 in this way in just one embossing process ensures that all embossed structures 10, 14 are placed in exactly defined relation to one another.
- FIG. 3 shows by way of example a data page for a passbook in which a relief 10 and at the same time a micro-font structure 14 are created.
- the relief 10 overlays a part of the individualization 5.
- oriented along the longitudinal axis of the data side viewing angle ⁇ is for a viewer while other information visible than under the supervision angle (3.
- Other angles and angular orientations are of course readily possible. While maintaining the basic idea of impressing a relief in a portion of a data carrier provided with an individualization, the invention allows a number of further appropriate embodiments which are not described individually here. For example, there is some latitude in the materials of the layers.
- additives can be added to individual layers, such as security elements, or they can undergo a special upstream processing.
- the embossing tool may also contain purely design embossing elements, such as a frame enclosing the embossed area, in further embodiments. It can also be provided that the embossing tool simultaneously with the reliefs at predetermined locations of the data carrier breakthroughs, for example generated in the form of slots or holes. Further, it is further possible to design the viewing angle dependent optical effect so that more than two different pieces of information become visible at more than two different viewing angles.
