Definitions
- the present invention relates to a component with an authenticity marker and use indicator, a system or machine containing such a component, and a method of checking a component for authenticity and/or use.
- EP 0 831 379 A2 discloses the preamble of claim 1.
- Use indicators are likewise known from the state of the art for products subject to wear, WO2009/058191 A1 , for example, describes a colour indicator for cleansing wipes.
- the fibres of the cleansing wipes have a surface coating the colour of which is different from the colour of the fibres.
- surface coating is removed, as a result of which the colour of the fibres appears and indicates the wearing of the surface coating.
- the indication of use follows the actual wear of the product.
- the sole criterion for an indication of use in this context should be a particular number of uses or a particular duration of use.
- the component ought to enable a distinction to be made between new and unused components on the one hand and used authentic parts on the other.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide an appropriate method of checking a component for authenticity and/or use and a system or machine containing a corresponding component.
- the first object is achieved by a component on and/or in which is disposed substantially inseparably a carrier material which contains
- the term "component” is intended to mean an article that can be used alone or as part of a system or machine. Such a component does not need to have any predetermined shapes or dimensions and can be used in any field of technology. It may, for example, be an automotive spare part, a part for a complex industrial production system, a part in an electronic apparatus, etc.
- An authenticity marker in the context of the present application is to be understood as a marker with which the authenticity (genuineness) of the correspondingly marked article can be checked.
- Corresponding authenticity markers are sufficiently well-known in the art, such as from WO2010/066237 A1 .
- a component in accordance with the invention is intended to be understood in the present context as the utilisation of the component. That utilisation may be a single utilisation, multiple utilisation, continuous or discontinuous.
- the use of the component can preferably also comprise the wear, i.e. the abrasion, of such a component.
- a use indicator is intended to be understood as an indicator that can be used to identify the use defined above.
- the carrier material is disposed on the surface of the component, preferably inside an indentation on the surface of the component, where the indentation advantageously has an opening width of at least 0.2 mm, preferably 1.0-5.0 mm.
- the indentation preferably has a depth of at least 0.1 mm, preferably 2.0-5.0 mm.
- the carrier material can be introduced onto the component, preferably into the indentation, in the form of a liquid or paste and then cured.
- the carrier material to be used in accordance with the invention, together with the authenticity marker and use indicator, is preferably chemically inert, mechanically robust and temperature-stable.
- the component can preferably be made of metal, glass, wood, plastic and/or a ceramic material.
- the carrier material is selected from the group consisting of glass and polymeric compounds such as epoxy, polyester, polyether, silicone and/or phenolic resin.
- the carrier material which contains the authenticity marker and the use indicator may be disposed on and/or in the component.
- the carrier material may, for example, be disposed as a marker drop in an indentation on the surface of the component, or may be distributed homogeneously in the material of the component. In this way, it is possible to have a distribution located at specific points (such as a marker drop) and/or homogeneously.
- the authenticity marker is selected from the group consisting of Stokes and/or anti-Stokes pigments, ceramic markers, preferably with a chemical code, or a material possessing a characteristic that can be distinguished from the carrier material and/or the component.
- the use indicator includes a measurable characteristic which changes irreversibly, continuously or discontinuously, as a result of measuring that characteristic of the use indicator and/or of the authenticity marker itself.
- the characteristic of the use indicator is a photochemical and/or photophysical characteristic.
- the component is covered with an optical filter in the region of the carrier material containing the authenticity marker and use indicator so that it only allows the radiation needed for reading out to pass through from the outside.
- the invention in accordance with the invention also relates to a method of checking a component of the invention for authenticity and/or use, comprising the steps of:
- Steps (i) and (ii) or (iii) and (iv) in the method of checking a component in accordance with the invention can be performed one after the other or simultaneously.
- the invention also relates to a system or machine containing, in accordance with the invention, a component and also containing measurement and/or control technology for measuring the authenticity marker and/or use indicator, comparing the measuring results with stored information and controlling the system or machine on the basis of the results of the comparison.
- the component of the invention does not require any individual numbering or any networked and secure data management, but provides manufacturers of original components with reliable control over the use and utilisation of the components.
- One or more measurable characteristics of the authenticity marker are used to detect the authenticity of the component and constitute a security feature.
- a use indicator present in the carrier material in the component of the invention, which includes one or more measurable characteristics which reliably and continuously or discontinuously, but irreversibly, change/changes either as a result of the use of the component and/or as a consequence of measuring the security feature or of detecting the authenticity marker and/or of measuring that characteristic of the use indicator itself.
- the use indicator it is also possible at the same time or in addition for the use indicator to have one or more measurable characteristics which reliably and continuously or discontinuously, but irreversibly, change/changes the measurement of the security feature as a result of the use of the component and/or as a consequence of measuring the security feature itself and/or of measuring that characteristic of the use indicator. Over time, the use indicator preferably ensures that it becomes impossible to measure the security feature.
- the use indicator can thus reflect the use and wear of the component and also prevent the multiple utilisation of a used component.
- the change in the use indicator and/or its influence on the intensity of a measuring signal can be employed flexibly for measuring the authenticity marker.
- the controller of the machine or the system registers the values measured and can refuse to restart and/or continue operation of the machine or system if the authenticity marker is not detected and/or the status of the use indicator does not match its original status or differs to a specified extent.
- controller of the machine or system can be configured such that removing or changing the component concerned is detected by the controller. Then, renewed operation can be made dependent on the used or substituted component concerned being replaced by an unused or new genuine component.
- the measuring of the authenticity marker and of the use indicator can be integrated into the machine or system by means of suitable measurement and control technology.
- the photochemical reaction is triggered by radiation, preferably laser radiation, particularly preferably either UV radiation outside the range of the light reaching the Earth (UV-C) or of a wavelength that also excites the fluorescence of the authenticity marker.
- radiation preferably laser radiation, particularly preferably either UV radiation outside the range of the light reaching the Earth (UV-C) or of a wavelength that also excites the fluorescence of the authenticity marker.
- optical filters are provided to control the intensity of the radiation strength and as protection against ambient radiation.
- the embodiment in accordance with the invention contemplates that a radiation-sensitive substance is integrated into a marker system as described in DE 102012003519 A1 .
- This can change the system in such a way that the signal of the authenticity marker is no longer detected.
- the detector can still detect the authenticity, but it issues a warning that the end of the service life is approaching.
- the marker can be clouded with a powerful pulse of radiation such that the signal of the detector is no longer recognised. This rules out erroneous continued utilisation.
