Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a security band intended to be incorporated in part into the structure of a security document at least partially made up of fibers.
  • This integration can be done in "embedded” form, in which case the thread is completely integrated into the mass of the paper.
  • the windows are visible by reflection, while the submerged parts are only visible by transmission.
  • reflection is meant the phenomenon by which the rays of incident light are reflected on the surface of the support.
  • the document US 2008/160226 A1 discloses, for example, a security band emerging from the surface of a security document in the form of a set of windows.
  • this integration technique means that the security thread is only visible from the upper side of the paper, and only partially, that is to say at the level of the windows.
  • the present invention aims to fill this gap. It also aims to facilitate the authentication of the security document which incorporates this band, in particular by the man in the street.
  • the present invention in a first aspect, relates to a security strip intended to be incorporated in part into the structure of a security document at least partially consisting of fibers, this strip emerging on the surface of said document in the form of 'a set of windows, and comprising a transparent or translucent support material, covered, on one or the other of its opposite faces, with at least three distinct and superposed layers of coating.
  • this band comprises, among these three layers respectively designated first layer, second intermediate layer and third layer, a second intermediate layer which has an optical rendering different from that of the first and third layers.
  • the second intermediate layer is opaque and comprises at least two regions at least partially devoid of coating, these two regions respectively having different contours and the first and third coating layers consist of at least one pattern, a part of the pattern of the first layer being visible through one of said two regions at least partially devoid of coating, while at least part of the pattern of the third layer is visible through the other of said two regions at least partially devoid of coating, said patterns being different from each other.
  • the presence of an opaque intermediate layer makes it possible, on either side of it, to affix additional layers which will be respectively visible from the front face and the back face of the band. Moreover, insofar as the intermediate layer has partially hollowed-out regions of different outlines, the latter will constitute visible additional security signs and the authentication of the headband by the man in the street will be facilitated thereby. And jointly, the task of a fraudster will be made more complex.
  • part of the pattern of the first layer is visible through one of these regions and that part of the pattern of the third layer is also visible through the other region makes the manufacture of the particularly complex headband, hence greater difficulty for fraudsters to produce the headband according to the invention.
  • a stencil effect is thus obtained, that is to say a filter effect.
  • the surfaces of the patterns are "filtered” by the shape of the regions and give different information depending on whether the strip is observed from its front face or its back face.
  • This stencil effect thus generates different but intrinsically linked information.
  • Another aspect of the invention relates to a security document such as a banknote. This is remarkable in that it includes a banner according to one or other of the preceding characteristics, which is incorporated into this document while emerging on the surface of at least one of its visible faces, as a set of windows.
  • the security document is coated locally with a de-opacifying agent, that is to say improving the visibility of the band where it does not emerge on the surface of at least one of the visible faces of the document.
  • the security document 1 shown in the figures 1 and 2 attached here consists of a banknote.
  • it could be another type of security document, such as a passport.
  • This security document is preferably based on cotton paper, with or without chemical pulp, cellulose-based paper or any other material containing fibers of different types and weights, including at least some synthetic fibers. It is also possible to use a hybrid support combining polymer(s) and paper.
  • a strip 2 is partially incorporated into the document 1, while emerging at its upper surface corresponding to the front face 10 of the ticket, in the form of a set of windows.
  • the strip extends along the small transverse dimension of the ticket.
  • the letter P has marked the zones of the band 2 which are integrated into the mass of the banknote and are therefore not completely visible, unlike the window zones F, as shown in the figure 1 .
  • the headband according to the invention comprises a support material 4 that is transparent, or at least translucent, such as a plastic film.
  • polyester film having, without limitation, a thickness of approximately 10 to 12 ⁇ m.
  • this support material On the lower face of this support material, that is to say in the direction of the back face 11, there is a thickness 3 of adhesive or of a mixture of adhesives intended to secure the whole of the strip 2 of security with the fibrous material of the document in which it is to be inserted.
  • the same material as that of the support 4 can be used.
  • This coating is to protect all of the information contained at the level of the layers 5, while allowing their readability.
  • the assembly is covered, on the front face side, with another layer 7 of adhesive, preferably of the same nature as layer 3 (but not necessarily).
  • FIG. 4B represents what is visible on the recto side, that is to say according to a direction of observation which is located from above the layer 53.
  • FIG. 4C it symbolizes what is visible according to the reverse face of the stack
  • layer 51 is formed of a set of opaque patterns, for example consisting of a covering black ink printing.
  • the patterns consist here, for illustrative purposes, of a curvilinear transverse line and whose acronym “FCOF” is printed upside down with the letter “O" full.
  • the second layer 52 which can be described as intermediate, has an optical rendering different from that of the first layer.
  • optical rendering it is meant that, when these two layers are observed with the naked eye, they can be immediately differentiated from one another, in particular by their color, their shine, their opacity /transparency and/or their different contrast.
  • a characteristic of intermediate layer 52 is that it is opaque.
  • any material having real opacity can be used, and it will be preferred, for example, to form this layer by means of a metallic deposit such as an ink print containing metallic particles with a gold, silver, copper, etc. effect.
  • a metallic deposit such as an ink print containing metallic particles with a gold, silver, copper, etc. effect.
  • This layer 52 partially covers the first layer 51.
  • this intermediate layer 52 rests a third layer 53 which also has a pattern 530 consisting here of the stylized representation of the letter “O” on the one hand, and in the presence of four squares on the other hand.
  • the materials used for the patterns of layer 51 are the same as those of layer 53.
  • the intermediate layer 52 makes it possible to clearly differentiate the layers 51 and 53 from each other, as well as the patterns present therein.
  • first layer 51 comprising patterns 510.
  • intermediate layer 52 opaque whose some areas 520 are uncoated.
  • a third layer 53 which is preferably identical in nature to layer 51.
  • This layer forms patterns referenced 530.
  • An additional layer that can be described as a fourth layer 54 superimposes the stack 5 of layers 51, 52 and 53.
  • This layer 54 is identical in nature to or different from that of the second layer 52.
  • This fourth layer 54 also exhibits perforated zones since the only region, in which a concealing material is present, is confined here to a circle 540.
  • a fifth layer 55 covers the whole. It is preferably of a different nature than the first and third layers. Particularly advantageously, this layer 55 consists of an ink with effects chosen from among the optically variable, iridescent, liquid crystal type so as to create color change effects depending on the angle of observation.
  • This layer can be semi-transparent and comprises patterns 550 which are located directly above patterns 530 and 510 or 540.
  • the fifth layer 55 reveals a first piece of information consisting of the patterns 550.
  • the opaque coating of the layer 54 has recessed areas overlapping with the layer 55 and the layer 53 can reveal incidentally, advantageously, another negative message which does not overlap layers 55 and 53.
  • Coating 53 is only visible from the front face through the recessed areas of layer 54. Conversely, coating 53 is only visible from the back face ( Fig. 6C ) only through the recessed areas of layer 52.
  • the information resulting from the stack 51, 52, 53, 54 and 55 directly above said recessed areas and overlapping layers 52 and 54 is different from an observation in reflection of one of the faces, reciprocally of the other face.
  • a first layer 51 consisting of a covering black ink coating.
  • this black layer occupies only part of the surface of the strip.
  • a second intermediate layer 52 On this first layer is deposited a second intermediate layer 52, always formed of an opaque coating, for example of the metallic type, with areas devoid of coating.
  • the shape of the dot and of the raster line as well as its orientation and its coverage are parameters well known to those skilled in the art.
  • a grid of circular dots of 10 ⁇ m is proposed, with a coverage of 50% and an orientation at 45°.
  • a third layer is affixed to the second layer 52. It may or may not be identical in nature to that of the layer 51 and, in the present case, they are of the same nature.
  • the third layer 53 reveals a first piece of information consisting of the negative patterns 530.
  • the opaque coating of the metallic type of the second layer 52 offers partially recessed areas overlapping with the first layer 51.
  • the coating of the layer 51 is visible from the front side only through the partially recessed areas of the layer 52 , and, conversely, the coating of layer 53 is visible from the reverse side only through the partially hollowed-out areas of the second layer 52.
  • the information resulting from the stacking of the three layers 51 to 53 plumb partially hollowed out areas of the layer 52 are therefore different from an observation in reflection of one of the faces, reciprocally of the other face, and present a visual rendering, semi-transparent and more nuanced than in the example of the figures 4A to 4C .
  • the security document in accordance with the invention can be locally coated with a de-opacifying agent, that is to say improving the visibility of the strip 2 where it does not emerge on the surface of at least one of the visible sides of the document, so as to make the information carried by the first layer 51 of the stack 5 more visible.
  • a de-opacifying agent that is to say improving the visibility of the strip 2 where it does not emerge on the surface of at least one of the visible sides of the document, so as to make the information carried by the first layer 51 of the stack 5 more visible.
  • At least one of the layers 51, 52, 53, 54 or 55 can incorporate agents that can be authenticated during automatic machine reading. These are, for example, magnetic particles forming a continuous band, blocks or code in the form of bits. They can also be conductive, fluorescent, phosphorescent particles, revealed by infrared radiation or else comprising a specific signal detectable with a dedicated device.
