Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a security element for a security paper, security document or the like, as well as a security document with such a security element.
  • Objects to be protected are often equipped with a security element that allows the authenticity of the object to be checked and immediately serves as protection against unauthorized reproduction.
  • Objects to be protected are, for example, security papers, ID and value documents (such as banknotes, chip cards, passports, identification cards, ID cards, shares, attachments, certificates, vouchers, checks, entrance tickets, credit cards, health cards, etc.) and product security elements (such as labels, Seals, packaging, etc.).
  • ID and value documents such as banknotes, chip cards, passports, identification cards, ID cards, shares, attachments, certificates, vouchers, checks, entrance tickets, credit cards, health cards, etc.
  • product security elements such as labels, Seals, packaging, etc.
  • Security elements which have a micro-optical display arrangement in the form of a moiré magnification arrangement, such as that shown in FIG WO 2007/076952 A2 is described, or in the form of a modulo magnification arrangement, such as that in the WO 2009/000528 A1 is described to have a three-dimensional image impression that is memorable.
  • a security element is difficult to imitate, since the micro-optical structure is difficult to copy or replicate.
  • counterfeiters since counterfeiters always work to counterfeit known security elements, there is a need for security elements with increased counterfeit security.
  • WO 2010/034420 A1 discloses the preamble of claim 1.
  • the present invention is based on the object of providing a security element for a security paper, security document or the like, which is more difficult to copy or reproduce.
  • the object is achieved by a security element for security paper, value document or the like, with a carrier which has a motif area which provides a visually perceptible motif with a first and a second motif part, the motif area being a first micro-optical display arrangement which is the first Subject part presents at least two different images depending on the viewing angle, and includes a second micro-optical display arrangement which, as the second subject part, presents a reflective surface which appears curved in relation to the actual macroscopic spatial shape of the second micro-optical display arrangement.
  • the motif area has the first and second motif parts, which comprise different micro-optical display arrangements, which as a rule place significantly different demands on their manufacturing processes, in particular origination. This means that a counterfeiter has to master both manufacturing processes, which increases the security against counterfeiting.
  • the security element according to the invention has a very high optical attractiveness and thus a particularly high recognition value.
  • the security elements are, for example, a security element for a banknote
  • the user will preferably check the authenticity of the banknote on the basis of this attractive security element.
  • the requirements for a counterfeiter are increased, since he is both micro-optical Representation arrangements must copy or copy in high quality, which is very expensive to produce a fake that is not recognized as such by the user.
  • the two motif parts are arranged (spatially) coherently, so that the images presented by the two micro-optical display arrangements can be perceived by the user as a single motif.
  • the coherent arrangement means that the distance between the two motif parts is preferably less than 1 mm and particularly preferably less than 0.2 mm. Furthermore, both motif parts can directly adjoin each other.
  • the security element can preferably be designed such that one of the two motif parts at least partially surrounds the other of the two motif parts.
  • the surrounding motif part can completely surround the other motif part in the manner of a frame.
  • the two motif parts overlap at least partially and / or are at least partially nested in one another.
  • a framing or the arrangement of the first and second motif parts at very short intervals increases the security against forgery especially when the two micro-optical representations have to be produced with different origination processes and / or cannot be embossed at the same time.
  • a counterfeiter then not only has to master two origination and / or embossing processes, but must also position the motifs produced with them in exact register with one another. In particular, nested motif parts are extremely difficult to forge.
  • the security element according to the invention can advantageously be designed such that, depending on the viewing and / or lighting situation, the display of one of the micro-optical display arrangements dominates, while the displays of the first or second micro-optical display arrangement in a different viewing or lighting situation become an overall motif complete.
  • the first micro-optical display arrangement provides a display that is independent of the illumination direction at a constant viewing angle, while the display of the second micro-optical display arrangement varies depending on the illumination direction.
  • the security element can also be designed such that one of the two micro-optical display arrangements represents a background against which the other of the two micro-optical display arrangements shows an object, so that overall a three-dimensional overall view can be perceived as a motif.
  • the first micro-optical display arrangement can present the at least two different images depending on the viewing angle in such a way that the images overlap at least in regions and / or are nested within one another.
  • the first micro-optical display arrangement can particularly advantageously present two different views of the same object as the at least two different images.

  • more than two different images of the same object can be presented by means of the first micro-optical display arrangement in such a way that parallax results. It can thus be achieved that when the viewing angle changes, image components of the first motif part in the foreground move relative to image components of the first motif part in the background. This can even cause you to quasi can look behind an object shown in the foreground of the first part of the motif.
  • the first micro-optical display arrangement can have a hologram.

  • a particular advantage of building out Figure 8 lies in the fact that both the micro concave mirror 28 and the facets 18 are mirrored, while for example in the case of the Figure 9 shown construction a demetalization in areas in the areas adjacent to the second micro-optical display arrangement 17 is necessary. The sharpness of the border between the two motif parts 4, 5 is then given by the corresponding tolerances of the demetalization.
  • This limitation lies with the construction according to Figure 8 not before, so that the curved surface in the second motif part 5 with a particularly filigree outline can appear in the first motif part 4 against the background of the moiré or modulo magnification arrangement.

  • a hole pattern 31 can be implemented, for example, by periodically arranged holes or slots in an opaque, for example reflective, metallized layer.

  • asymmetrical diffraction gratings are preferably arranged in such a way that the reflection behavior of a curved surface is (if possible) simulated achromatically, as is the case, for example, in FIG WO 2006/013215 A1 is described.
  • the two motif parts 4 and 5 can at least partially overlap. Alternatively or additionally, the two motif parts 4 and 5 can also be nested in one another in regions.
  • the surfaces of the two motif parts 4, 5 can be broken down into complementary surface elements, for example, and then combined into an overall motif. Each motif part loses part of its image information, which is replaced in the affected surface elements by the image information of the other surface element. If the dimensions of the surface elements are below the resolution of the eye, the viewer perceives the individual impressions of the two motif parts simultaneously and processes them into an overall motif.
  • the area proportions of the area elements originating from both motif parts can be distributed locally and / or globally in the same or different ways.
  • the motif part with the larger proportion of the area can visually dominate the motif part with the smaller proportion.
  • the first micro-optical display arrangement 11 is designed as a moiré magnification arrangement with microlenses 10 and the second micro-optical display arrangement 17 has the reflective facets 18, e.g. in the nested area, every second micro lens 10 of the first micro-optical display arrangement 11 is replaced by one or more reflective facets 18 of the second micro-optical display arrangement 17.
  • the motif area 3 of the security element 1 can be divided, for example, into small tiles or thin strips, each of which is occupied by elements of the first or second micro-optical display arrangement 11, 17.
  • This results in an interesting effect since the representation of the second motif part 5 is no longer purely metallic reflective, but partly transparent, so that an image of the first motif part 4, for example lying in the depth, can be seen through the second micro-optical representation arrangement 17.
  • the object displayed by means of the first micro-optical display arrangement 11 can also appear to lie or float in front of the surface of the second micro-optical display arrangement 17 that appears to be curved.

  • the first and / or second micro-optical display arrangement (s) 11, 17 can be provided in whole or in part with a color-shifting coating, in particular a thin film system with a reflector / dielectric / absorber. This can further increase the visual appeal and further increase the security against counterfeiting.
  • the security element 1 according to the invention can be arranged on the banknote 2 in such a way that it is not only of the type shown in FIG Figure 1 shown front, but is also visible from the back of the banknote. However, not all bulge or depth effects generated must be visible from both sides.
  • the security element 1 has in the first motif part 4 a first micro-optical display arrangement 11 according to Figure 8 which here periodically repeats the number 105 in depth.
  • a vaulted representation of a portrait is visible, the representation from both sides (ie also from the back according to Figure 12 ) appears arched. This can be done for example by means of facets 18 Figure 8 be realized. From the back, however, the viewer looks in the area of the first motif part 4 onto the back of the micro-concave mirror 28 of the first micro-optical display arrangement 11, so that he can only perceive a matt, metallized area there (in FIG Figure 12 the numbers 105 are therefore not shown in the first motif part 4).
  • a further curved representation (here the number 1452) can be used, for example, in a second motif area 32 adjoining the motif area 3, using reflective facets in the same way as in FIG Figure 8 be realized.
  • the second motif area 32 and thus the number 1452 is only visible from the back (the number would appear reversed from the front).
  • This can be achieved in particular in that the security element 1 is arranged in a window area of the banknote which is only as large as the motif area 3, so that the second motif area 32 is covered and can therefore only be seen from the rear.
  • first and second motif areas 3 and 32 can be deliberately covered with a color-shifting thin film system.
  • the second motif part 5 and the motif area 32 on the back ( Figure 12 ) be coated with a color-shifting thin film system, so that these elements then appear in the first motif area 4 with a changing color in front of the metallic matt and colorless background of the micro concave mirror backs.
  • the security element 1 according to the invention can be developed in such a way that both the bulging and the depth effect can be seen from both sides of the security element 1.
  • the first micro-optical display arrangement 11 in the first motif part 4 was designed such that a stereographic display with depth information is achieved.
  • This is understood to mean representations in which a three-dimensional Effect is generated in that the security element 1 provides the left and right eyes of the viewer with different views of an object, each of which shows the object viewed from the corresponding direction. From these different views, absolute depth information is then obtained for an observer, which results in an overall three-dimensional impression.
  • the representations used in this class can often have more than just two different views, which usually results in parallax (ie when rotating or tilting east-west, the image components in the foreground move relative to the image components in the background). Under certain circumstances, for example, you can look behind an object in the foreground by rotating it.
  • holograms for example directly exposed holograms or computer-generated stereograms.
  • microlens tilt images and moiré magnification arrangements with a depth effect and / or movement effect as described, for example, in WO 2007/076952 A2 or WO2009 / 000527 A1 is described.
  • a curvature is imitated by directional reflection, from which a depth effect or a three-dimensional effect results only indirectly.
  • This type of display shows no parallax, so that a display in front of or behind a reference plane is simply not possible.
  • reflective Fresnel structures e.g. EP 1570 422 B1 , EP 1 562758 B1
  • diffractive achromatic elements with a bulging effect e.g. WO 2006/013215 A1
  • arched matt structure lattice pictures e.g.
  • WO2010 / 034420A1 or in particular also appear relief-like security elements based on micro-optical sawtooth gratings, such as those associated with Figure 5 are described for example in the present application. All of these configurations have in common that an at least partially mirrored surface that is practically flat on a larger length scale violates the law implicitly assumed by the viewer that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection in the event of a reflection on a larger length scale, for example by locally aligning the surface with micromirrors that are not visible to the naked eye the respective surface normal deviates from the reference plane of the security element visible to the viewer and / or the incident light is diffracted in diffraction effects in directions unexpected by the viewer.
  • the first micro-optical display arrangement 11 can be designed such that in the first motif part 4 the parallax does not exactly correspond to the parallax of an object lying in the depth. This can be achieved, for example, by moiré magnification arrangements or modulo magnification arrangements. It can thereby be achieved that an additional movement effect occurs in the first motif part 4 when the security element 1 is tilted or rotated. This can be an orthoparallactic movement, such as that in the WO 2007/076952 A2 is described, the representations for the left and right eye of the viewer strictly speaking not permitting an assignment of a depth, since the viewing directions from which the observer sees the object with the left and right eye do not intersect.
  • a representation with correct parallax corresponds to a representation with an A matrix that is only occupied on the main diagonal.
  • the A matrix is populated only at the positions not on the main diagonal.
  • a small parallax error in the sense of the present invention is present when the A matrix is occupied both on the main diagonal and next to it.
  • the second micro-optical display arrangement may also have "errors" in the orientations of the microscopic structures compared to the orientation of the simulated surface.
  • Such an effect exists, for example, in a so-called imaginary surface.
  • this means the formation of a reflection or transmission behavior that cannot be generated with a real curved reflecting or transmitting surface. For example, if you turn the azimuth angles of all facets 90 ° to the right, a relief illuminated from above looks as if it were illuminated from the right.
  • the light reflections do not migrate in this case when tilting, as one would expect with the embossed relief, but also "orthoparallactic", which can be a very surprising effect. At first glance, however, such representations also appear to a viewer to be arched. For the impression of a curvature according to the invention, it is not important here that the orientation of the microstructures actually exactly reproduces the reflection behavior of a real curved surface.
  • the representation by means of the first micro-optical representation arrangement 11 in the first motif part 4 can change from a first image to a second image when the security element 1 is tilted or rotated from east to west.
  • a first symbol A lying in the depth could tilt into at least one other representation, for example a symbol B, when the security element 1 is tilted.
  • the first micro-optical display arrangement 11 can also implement additional effects, for example also kinematic effects (movements, pump effect, etc.) in addition to the tilting images mentioned above.
  • the three-dimensional representation in the first motif part 4 can move when the security element 1 is tilted.
  • the display could also switch from a certain tilt angle to the display of a completely different, not necessarily three-dimensional object (for example, a number lying in the depth can change to a different display, for example a symbol that then moves when tilted further).
  • the quality or the appearance of the two micro-optical display arrangements can each show a different dependency on the viewing or lighting situation used. For example, a stereogram realized with a hologram grating can only be clearly recognized from the right direction when the lighting is almost parallel, whereas it is blurred or not perceived at all in diffuse lighting becomes.
  • the second micro-optical display arrangement which appears to be curved according to the invention, is very well recognizable even in the case of diffuse illumination from a wide angular range. Other combinations can show differently recognizable first and second micro-optical display arrangements when viewed or viewed.
  • the first micro-optical display arrangement can consist, for example, of a moiré magnification arrangement based on a microlens screen, which, for example, shows a depth effect when viewed from above and through, while a second micro-optical display arrangement formed by metallized sawtooth structures shows the desired arch effect when viewed from above and can only appear opaque when viewed through .
  • the security element according to the invention can consequently be designed such that, depending on the viewing and / or lighting situation, the display of one of the two micro-optical display arrangements dominates, while the displays complement one another in another viewing or lighting situation.
  • the security element 1 according to the invention can also be designed, for example, as a security strip 33, as in FIG Figure 1 is shown. Furthermore, the security element 1 can not only be formed, as described, on a carrier film from which it can be transferred to the value document 2 in a known manner. It is also possible to form the security element 1 directly on the value document. Thus, direct printing on a polymer substrate with subsequent embossing of the security element can be carried out, for example in order to form a security element according to the invention in the case of plastic banknotes.
  • the security element according to the invention can be formed in a wide variety of substrates.
  • it can be in or on a paper substrate, a paper with synthetic fibers, ie paper with a proportion x polymeric material in the range of 0 ⁇ x ⁇ 100 wt .-%, a plastic film, e.g. B.
  • PE polyethylene
  • PET polyethylene terephthalate
  • PBT polybutylene terephthalate
  • PEN polyethylene naphthalate
  • PA polyamide
  • a multi-layer composite in particular a composite of several different foils (composite composite) or a paper-film composite (film / paper / film or paper / film / paper), the security element being able to be provided in or on or between each of the layers of such a multilayer composite.
  • micro-optical display arrangements are located on flat substrates.
  • the designs according to the invention can also be used advantageously in the case of curved or flexible substrates, such as labels, securities or banknotes.
