Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of secure articles.
- security elements applied on the surface or introduced en masse or in window (s) in a secure article, for example a label, packaging, especially for drugs, food, cosmetics, electronic parts or spare parts.
- the secure article can in particular be chosen from a means of payment, such as a bank note, a bank card, a check or a restaurant ticket, an identity document such as an identity card, a visa, a passport or driver's license, a secure card, a lottery ticket, a transport ticket or an entrance ticket to events.
- a means of payment such as a bank note, a bank card, a check or a restaurant ticket
- an identity document such as an identity card, a visa, a passport or driver's license
- a secure card such as a lottery ticket, a transport ticket or an entrance ticket to events.
- WO 2011/007344 A1 describes a secure article comprising a first optical structure and a second optical structure, or an assembly comprising a secure article and another object, the secure article comprising one of the first optical structure and the second optical structure and the object comprising or forming the other of the first optical structure and the second optical structure, having most of the features of claim 1.
- WO 2011/007344 A1 in alternative a) of claim 1, does not describe that the first optical structure comprises corresponding frame elements of different dimensions according to the or at least one of the directions, does not describe that the first optical structure comprises corresponding frame elements out of phase with one another along an axis perpendicular to the one or one of their directions.
- WO 2011/007344 A1 in alternative b) of claim 1, does not describe that the at least two blocks of first optical structure comprise corresponding nested image lines of different dimensions according to the or at least one of the directions, does not describe that the at least two blocks of a first optical structure comprise nested image lines phase-shifted between them along an axis perpendicular to the one or one of their directions.
- the invention aims to meet this need and has for object, according to a first of its aspects, a secure article comprising a first optical structure and a second optical structure, or an assembly comprising a secure article and another object, as defined by claim 1.
- the invention it is possible to benefit from a secure article offering a new means of authentication, consisting in the formation of revealed images. different, leading for example to the formation of a particular colored pattern easily recognizable by the man in the street.
- the other aforementioned object is, for example, similar in its function and / or in its form to the secure article according to the invention.
- the secure item and the other item are banknotes, especially with the same fiduciary value.
- the secure article and the other object can then only be differentiated from one another by a serial number for example.
- each block lets appear a certain proportion of each of the nested images of the combined image to form the revealed image .
- the proportion of a nested image is between 0 and 1, the value 0 being assigned to a nested image when the latter is not a component of the revealed image, that is to say when the latter is completely obscured by the revelation frame at the level of the corresponding block and the value 1 being assigned when the entire nested image is a component of the revealed image, that is to say when the latter is not at all obscured by the revelation frame at the level of the corresponding block.
- the combined image or each of the combined image blocks comprises a periodic alternation of nested image elements in one or more directions.
- the combined image or each of the combined image blocks can comprise at least two nested images, preferably at least three.
- the combined image or each of the combined image blocks may include at least two elements of each nested image, preferably at least three.
- the successive elements of the same nested image can be spaced apart by a distance defining a period.
- the or each period may be between 10 ⁇ m and 1 mm, preferably between 50 ⁇ m and 200 ⁇ m.
- the nested image elements belonging to different nested images are of different colors.
- the color is defined by the combination of three parameters which are the hue, the saturation and the luminosity.
- Hue is the perception of color measured on a color disk
- saturation is the purity of the color
- lightness is the degree of lightening or darkening of a color.
- the nested image elements belonging to different nested images are of different hues.
- the elements belonging to different nested images in particular to at least two of the different nested images, can be different in their appearances, in particular their hues, opacities, saturations, luminescence or brightness, and / or present a contrast, in particular a saturation contrast , of intensity, of hue and / or of luminance, and / or a sufficient colorimetric difference to make it possible to distinguish, in particular under white light, two adjacent nested image elements when they are observed with a certain magnification. So at least two of the, better all, nested images, look different.
- the nested image elements of the same nested image are preferably of the same color but of a different color from those of the other nested images.
- the image revealed by each of the blocks can then be an image whose color is defined by the proportion of each visible nested image, that is, the proportion of each color.
- Images revealed at two or more blocks are of different colors.
- the combined image or each combined image block comprises three nested images of respective colors red, green and blue and each revealed image is of a color depending on its proportion in each of the nested images, the color can easily be changed. determined by its RGB coordinates.
- the RGB coordinates are in the form of three numbers between 0 and 255 characterizing said color, each number representing the proportion of one of the red, green and blue components making it possible to obtain said color.
- under given observation conditions is understood to mean a given position and a given orientation of the revealing frame relative to the combined image and a given observation angle of the revealing frame and of the combined image.
- the colors of the nested image elements may or may not be primary colors.
- the combined image or each combined image block, and the nested images that it or it comprises, are raster images; the combined image or each combined image block may be a colored frame.
