Definitions

  • the invention relates to a data carrier, in particular a value or security document, with a film security element, and a manufacturing method for such a data carrier.
  • Data carriers such as banknotes, stocks, bonds, certificates, vouchers, checks, high-quality admission tickets, but also other forgery-prone papers, such as passports or other identity documents, are often provided with security elements for security, which allow a verification of the authenticity of the value document and at the same time serve as protection against unauthorized reproduction.
  • security elements for security, which allow a verification of the authenticity of the value document and at the same time serve as protection against unauthorized reproduction.
  • transparent security features such as see-through windows in identification cards and other identity documents are becoming increasingly attractive.
  • see-through security features are often personalized using laser engraving equipment. If such facilities are also available to counterfeiters, personal information may be subsequently manipulated or falsified.
  • ID documents are partially equipped with negative images that show an inverse effect on positive images when exposed to laser light.
  • compensation layers or further functional layers usually have to be provided in the document, so that the production is complicated and cost-intensive because of the many manual steps required.
  • a security device for a security substrate which comprises a carrier made of at least partially translucent material Polymer material, wherein the carrier has a plurality of fine opaque lines, which are separated by gaps.
  • the appearance of the lines may be increased or decreased by increasing the width of the lines, by changing the density of the lines, by changing the color of the lines, by dividing the lines into several smaller lines, by activating an activatable material or by using an optical variable medium in areas to be changed.
  • the present invention seeks to provide a data carrier of the type mentioned, which can be provided in a simple and cost-effective manner with a hidden, personalizable security element. Ideally, the personalized information contained in the security element is sustainably protected and the data carrier can easily be verified with the aid of the security element.
  • the invention is also intended to provide a suitable method for producing such data carriers.
  • the film security element has a photochromic substance in a feature region whose photochromic properties are permanently modified, in particular attenuated or deactivated, in a subregion of the feature region by the action of electromagnetic radiation, so that the modified subregion is exposed to light the foil security element emerges in a contrasting manner within the feature area.
  • Photochromism refers to a reversible change in state of a substance caused by exposure to light, in particular a color change.
  • the reverse reaction can take place spontaneously with a specific time constant or likewise photochemically by irradiation with light of a different wavelength.
  • the reversibility of the change of state is an essential feature of photochromism, which distinguishes it from other light-induced reactions.
  • inorganic and organic photochromic substances are known per se and can be used in the context of the present invention.
  • Spiropyrane are about colorless in the initial state and go on irradiation with UV light in a blue state, which can be converted by irradiation with visible light back to the colorless state.
  • the feature area of the film security element can be arranged in an opaque area of the data carrier, but at present it is preferred that the feature area is arranged in a see-through area of the data carrier, since in this way, in particular see-through security elements can be protected effectively and reliably.
  • the action of light can usually take place from both sides, so that the photochromic effect can be triggered, for example, by the action of light from the rear side, while the viewing takes place from the front side.
  • the modified subregion is preferably designed in the form of patterns, characters or codes.
  • the modified subarea comprises a personalized identification, for example the name, a date of birth or a portrait of a user or holder of an identification document.
  • the modified subarea may, for example, also include a nationality, the issuing authority or the issue date of an identity document.
  • the modified subregion forms a hidden marking which has substantially no contrast to the surrounding regions of the feature region without the action of light on the film security element.
  • the film security element is applied to the data carrier, for example glued.
  • the data carrier represents a multilayer data carrier and the film security element forms an inner layer of the multilayer data carrier.
  • the foil security element can also occupy only a portion of the volume surface.
  • one or both sides of the foil security element advantageously includes an opaque layer of the data carrier.
  • the opaque layer or the opaque layers are expediently expedient in the feature area, so that the view of the feature area is released from at least one side of the data carrier. closes an opaque layer on only one side of the film security element can, however, not necessarily be omitted in the feature area.
  • the data carrier is advantageously an identification card, in particular an identity card, a data page for a document of identification, a bank card, a credit card or a driver's license.
  • the photochromic substance is modified by the action of laser radiation, but it is also possible to produce the modification with a strong, in particular focused light source.
  • the modification of the photochromic substance can be carried out prior to integration or application of the photochromic film in or on the data carrier. However, it is particularly advantageous if the photochromic substance is modified only after the incorporation / application of the photochromic film in / on a multilayer data carrier. In this way, the data carrier with the photochromic film can be produced at a production site and later personalized at another location, that is to say provided with personal data of a user.
  • the photochromic film may also already be partially pre-modified.
  • a generic motif such as a state coat of arms, can already be introduced into the feature area by laser application during the production of the document.
  • Another, individual motif such as a portrait of the cardholder, however, is later inscribed in the photochromic film in connection with the issue of the identity document to a specific owner.
  • FIG. 1 shows an identification card 10, such as an identity card, bank card, credit card or driver's license.
  • the identification card 10 typically includes a plurality of open tags, such as a serial number 12 or a portrait 14 of the cardholder.
  • the identification card 10 has a hidden tag 16 integrated with a photochromic film security element 20.
  • the hidden label 16 is not visible under normal viewing conditions and in FIG Fig. 1 therefore only indicated dotted. Rather, the film security element 20 appears structurally transparent under normal viewing conditions.
  • a motif-shaped subregion of the film security element 20 shows a significant change in color, while the remaining areas of the film element remain unchanged, so that the 16 formed by the motif-shaped portion of marking 16 appears in high contrast in appearance. After completion of the lighting, the color change is completely back, so that the label 16 fades and after some time, the original, featureless appearance of the film security element 20 sets again.
  • the film security element 20 is arranged in a see-through region 18 of the identification card 10, so that the action of light can take place both from the front side and from the back side of the card.
  • a photochromic film security element 20 can also be arranged in an opaque subarea of a data carrier, as described below with reference to FIG Fig. 4 explained.
  • FIGS Figures 2 and 3 show Fig. 2 the identification card 10 initially in the initial state without Lichtbeierschlagung, ie under normal viewing conditions. It puts Fig. 2 (a) a cross section of the map along the line AA the Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 (b) schematically shows the visual appearance of the film security element 20 in supervision.
  • the layer sequence of the identification card 10 contains in this order a first transparent cover film 22, a first opaque film 24, a photochromic film 30 forming the photochromic film security element 20, a second opaque film 26 and a second transparent cover film 28.
  • the Both opaque films 24, 26 are recessed congruent in the see-through area 18 of the identification card 10, so that there the view of the photochromic film 30 is released.
  • the photochromic film 30 contains in a feature region a photochromic substance which, upon exposure to light, exhibits a reversible state change, in particular a color change.
  • the photochromic substance is colorless transparent in the initial state and reversibly turns into a state of blue color upon excitation by UV irradiation.
  • the back reaction to the colorless state occurs spontaneously with a certain time constant, but can also be accelerated by irradiation with visible light.
  • the photochromic substance was deactivated by the action of laser radiation in a marking area 32, that is, the photochromic substance was modified so that it no longer shows any color change on illumination.
  • the inventors have found that it is possible by appropriate adjustment of the laser parameters on the photochromic substance used in each case to mitigate the photochromic properties of the photochromic substance or even completely disable, without causing a further, always recognizable changes in the visual appearance.
  • the identification region 32 with the modified (deactivated) photochromic substance can therefore not be distinguished from the surrounding region 34 with the unmodified photochromic substance without the action of light.
  • the film security element 20 thus appears as a structureless transparent surface 36, as in FIG Fig. 2 (b) shown.
  • the modified identification region 32 can easily be formed in the form of desired patterns, characters or codes.
  • the identification area 32 in the exemplary embodiment represents a copy of the portrait 14 of the cardholder.
  • the photochromic film security element 20 is then illuminated with suitable light 42 of a light source 40, as in FIG Fig. 3
  • the unmodified photochromic substance in region 34 shows the desired color change, in this case from colorless to blue, while the deactivated photochromic substance in region 32 remains unchanged colorlessly transparent. Therefore, after exposure to the light, when viewing the film security member 20, the portrait of the cardholder formed by the tagging portion 32 becomes rich in contrast, as in FIG Fig. 3 (b) illustrated. Since the photochromic portrait 32 has a copy of the open portrait 14 (FIG. Fig. 1 ), it can easily be checked for consistency by the viewer and thus used for an additional authenticity check of the card 10.
  • the security element 20 spontaneously returns to the colorless state with a certain time constant Fig. 2 (b) or may be returned to the colorless state by further irradiation with light of other wavelengths.
  • the reversible change of state can be triggered as often as required by renewed lighting.
  • FIG. 4 shows as another embodiment an identification card 50, wherein the feature area 38 of the photochromic film security element 20 is disposed in an opaque region of the identification card 50.
  • the layer sequence of the identification card 50 in the relevant subarea contains a first transparent cover film 22, a continuous opaque film 52, a photochrome film 30 forming the photochromic film security element 20, and a second transparent cover film 28.
  • the photochromic sheet 30 contains in the feature area 38 a photo-chrome substance which has been deactivated by the action of laser radiation in a motif-shaped marking area 32, while remaining unmodified in the areas 34 outside the marking area 32.
  • the unmodified photochromic substance When illuminated with a suitable light source 40, the unmodified photochromic substance then shows the desired color change in region 34, while the deactivated photochromic substance in region 32 does not change its appearance. After exposure to light, therefore, the motif formed by the marking area 32 appears in high contrast and can serve as an authenticity assurance of the identification card 50.
