Definitions
- the invention relates to a product securing element for the protection of a plurality of similar products and a method for securing a variety of similar products.
- High-quality products and their packaging are often provided with product protection elements as security, which serve as a proof of authenticity and should prevent unauthorized reproductions.
- luminescent substances for authenticity assurance.
- the presence of the luminescent substances can be easily checked, for example, with the aid of a UV lamp.
- fluorescent mottling fibers may be incorporated from short fiber cores provided with a fluorescent coating.
- the mica fibers are invisible, but under UV illumination, they appear clearly despite their small size due to their bright colored fluorescence.
- the printing of true color luminescence images is also known. This special colors are printed on, which are not visible under normal lighting and after excitation by UV light, a comparable color impression as a classic image, such as a portrait of the passport owner show.
- the object of the invention is to specify a product securing element which connects the cost-effective production, which is indispensable in the product securing area, with high counterfeit protection.
- the invention provides a product securing element for securing one of a plurality of similar products, which is a serial number plate, that is identical for all similar products to be protected and includes an individualization mark, which is unique for each product to be protected.
- the serial code comprises a luminescence region which can be excited by UV radiation
- the individualization code comprises a modification region which is invisible in the visible spectral region and locally modifies its luminescence in cooperation with the luminescence region upon UV excitation of the luminescence region and thereby visually and / or mechanically detects the individualization identifier ,
- the identical for all similar products serial number plate can be produced with a fast and cost-effective method, for example in offset printing and provides a basic insurance for all products provided with it.
- the unique individualization indicator for each product to be protected additionally enables a clear individualization of the respective product.
- the two markings are closely interwoven, since the modification region locally modifies the luminescence of the luminescence region and thus produces a strong interaction. In some designs, the information contained in the modification region is not readable without the luminescence region.
- the interaction of the two markings offers several significant advantages: Thus, the counterfeiting security of the product securing element is increased by the interaction, since a correct interaction of the two elements is required for a successful authenticity check.
- the production of the serial number plate can be easily separated from the production of the individualization code, since the securing effect is achieved only by the combination of the two elements. So can the two elements are manufactured by different manufacturers in different production plants using different methods. For example, a product packaging can be provided with the series designation by a packaging manufacturer, while the individualization designation in the form of an adhesive label is provided separately by a security provider. Even though this only provides the individualization marks, it nevertheless retains complete control over the number and use of the product protection elements produced.
- the luminescence region can already be visible without aids and be combined, for example, with conventional printing inks. In an advantageous embodiment, however, it is provided that the luminescence region is invisible in the visible spectral range without UV excitation.
- the luminescence region can show monochromatic luminescence, or else comprise a plurality of different luminescence colors.
- the luminescence region may, for example, contain a true color image from the luminescent primary colors red, green and blue or else show any other multicolored image.
- the modification region is arranged above the luminescence region, in particular printed on the luminescence region.
- Modification region and luminescence region are in an advantageous design in a fixed spatial relationship to each other. In other equally useful designs, the two areas are on different parts of a product and / or its packaging.
- the modification region contains a UV absorber and reduces the luminescence of the luminescence region in at least one UV excitation wavelength range (UV-A, UV-B and / or UV-C).
- the modification region contains a luminescent substance and modifies the luminescence of the luminescence region by additive color mixing.
- the luminescent substance of the modification region advantageously differs in its luminescence color from the luminescence colors of the luminescence region.
- the luminescence region can also be arranged with a first subregion above and with a second subregion below the modification region.
- visually high-quality designs can be generated in a simple manner.
- the parts of the modification region with or without a luminescence region arranged above them can appear perfectly matched with different colors on UV excitation without requiring a registration of the luminescence region and the modification region with respect to one another.
- the modification area advantageously comprises an alphanumeric digit sequence or a 1- or 2-dimensional code, such as a bar code, a bar code, or a QR code.
- a 1- or 2-dimensional code such as a bar code, a bar code, or a QR code.
- the information of the individualization indicator can already be detected purely visually, in other designs, such as a QR code, the license plate is indeed visually visible in UV light, but required for decrypting the information contained one machine detection.
- the luminescence region and the modification region can both be in the form of a print layer on the product to be protected.
- the modification region can also be present on an adhesive strip, in particular a slotted adhesive strip.
- the adhesive strip is adhered to the product to be protected, preferably in the region of a closure opening, where it forms the product securing element together with the luminescence region. If the adhesive strip is removed or the product packaging is opened, the integrity of the product securing element is destroyed. The luminescence region and the modification region can then not be easily returned to their original, product-securing positions.
- a slit adhesive strip is irrevocably destroyed when the package is opened or when it is removed from the package and therefore can not be reused.
- the product securing element is advantageously a brand protection label, preferably with a peel-off indicator, or represents a seal or tamper-evident closure, in particular for bottles or cartons.
- the peel-off indicator may also be, for example, that when removing the product securing element from a package or opening the package a part of the luminescence region and / or the modification region remains on the packaging, while another part remains on the product protection element itself.
- the product securing element can also be a thermoformed plastic film, in particular a blister pack or a molded part of a branded article. Furthermore, it can also be a shrink film.
- the modification region is produced in an adhesive strip only after the adhesive strip has been applied to the packaging to be secured.
- the packaged tablets or capsules are usually packaged in a blister pack protected from contamination and at the same time a visually recognizable precise removal is simplified.
- a blister pack usually consists of a transparent top layer, which takes up the shape of the tablets or capsules and an aluminum pad with a blister varnish, which may still contain information about the product on the back.
- the transparent blister top can be provided, for example by means of inkjet, with a modification region or a luminescence region in the form of a first fluorescence, and a transparent window in the cardboard packaging can be provided with a second information that forms the associated luminescence region or modification region.
- the two areas created in the blister and the package then form a product securing element of the type described above and complement each other under UV illumination to a predetermined, affirming the authenticity of the products appearance. This makes it possible, in particular, to check the product or the originality of the product without opening the packaging.
- the tax stamp for a cigarette packet then carries a modification region or a luminescence region in the form of a first fluorescence and the transparent outer packaging carries the second information that forms the associated luminescence region or modification region.
- the product to be protected for example, be a license plate number.
- a license plate in Germany consists of a support plate (preferably metal or plastic), applied to the backing plate retroreflective sheeting with a negatively recessed country code, one or more letters for the city or district, alphanumeric characters for the owner of the license plate and a sketchplakette for the main inspection, which is applied by the vehicle testing center (eg TÜV or DEKRA).
- the inventive solution would be suitable if with the creation of the license plate a first fluorescent badge is applied, which carries a first piece of information. With the payment of the vehicle tax, the vehicle owner receives a second label, which is then applied to the first label.
- the labels are designed so that they can not be removed non-destructively.
- the test is carried out by the police using a conventional UV hand lamp.
- the invention further includes a method for securing a plurality of similar products, in which on each of the plurality of similar products, a series identifier which is identical for all similar products to be protected, and an individualization identifier, which for each zu protective feature is unique, be applied, wherein the serial number comprises a luminescent region excitable with UV radiation, and the individualization mark comprises a visible in the visible spectral region modification region, which modifies its luminescence locally in cooperation with the luminescence region upon UV excitation of the luminescence and thus the Personalization indicator makes visually and / or mechanically detectable.
- the luminescence region is advantageously produced by printing on at least one luminescent printing ink.
- Suitable printing methods are offset printing, gravure printing, flexographic printing, screen printing, toner-based printing with dry or liquid toner or inkjet printing.
- the offset printing is suitable.
- the modification region is advantageously produced by applying a printing ink containing a UV absorber. Suitable printing methods are inkjet or laser printing or number printing. In particular, the injection pressure is suitable.
- the modification region can also be produced by applying a luminescent substance which modifies the luminescence of the luminescence region by additive color mixing.
- the luminescent substance can in particular be printed, preferably in the inkjet or laser printing process.
- the luminescence region and / or the modification region can be produced with at least one fluorescence color and / or at least one phosphorescent color.
- FIG. 1 shows a plan view of the part of the package 10 in which the fuse element 12 is applied, wherein Fig. 1 (a) the visual appearance in normal environmental conditions without UV lighting and Fig. 1 (b) the visual appearance when excited with a UV lamp 14 shows.
- FIG. 2 schematically shows a cross section through the package 10 with the product securing element 12 along the line II-II of Fig. 1 (b) ,
- the medicine package 10 shown in the embodiment represents a packaging for a particular drug M of a particular manufacturer H, wherein the drugs contained in the packaging of a production batch with a specific batch number originate.
- the specific drugs contained in the packaging by the specification of the batch number are individualized.
- the product securing element 12 contains on the one hand a serial number 20 which is identical for all similar packaging of the medicament M of the manufacturer H, and on the other hand contains an individualization number 24 in which the specific batch number of the respectively contained drug is coded and which is unique for each packaging 10 ,
- the series identifier 20 is formed in the exemplary embodiment by a luminescence region 22 which can be excited by UV radiation, and which is visually detected by three invisible fluorescent colors printed in a rainbow design.
- This rainbow bow design is identical in all product packaging of the drug M of the manufacturer H and is already printed in the production of the packaging in offset printing.
- the individualization indicator 24 is formed by a modification region 26 which is invisible in the visible spectral range and in which a UV absorber, for example Tinuvin 460 or titanium dioxide in the rutile or anatase modification, is printed on the luminescence region 22 in the form of a QR code.
- a UV absorber for example Tinuvin 460 or titanium dioxide in the rutile or anatase modification
- the product fuse element 12 is a hidden feature that can not be seen on the package 10 under normal lighting conditions, as in FIG Fig. 1 (a) indicated by the dashed outlines.
- the product fuse element 12 is exposed to the UV radiation 16 of a UV lamp 14, as in Fig. 1 (b) are shown, the fluorescent colors of the luminescence region 22 are excited to luminescence.
- the QR code of the individualization indicator 24 therefore occurs in contrasting dark UV light in front of the luminescent background of the luminescence region 22 in UV light out. He can then be read, for example, with a smartphone app and decoded the included batch number.
- the smartphone app can also check if the coded number is a lot number that is valid for that medicine and therefore an authentic product.
- the QR code may, of course, also contain further information, for example about the product composition, the manufacturer or the expiry date of the drug. These and other information can also be retrieved via a pointer contained in the QR code from a database. Particular advantages may provide a hybrid form, in which a basic information, such as the batch number and the expiry date of the drug is stored directly in the code and additional information, such as revenue and compatibilty or a possible recall of the manufacturer via a pointer from a database retrievable are.
- the batch number can also be printed again in clear text on the package 10, and allow the user to directly compare the decrypted by the smartphone app batch number and the printed batch number.
- the following color compositions can be used for the fluorescent dyes and the UV absorber
- the adjustment of the pH takes place e.g. with citric acid or triethanolamine.
- the pH is between 6 and 9.
- the surface tension is 30 - 35 mN / m.
- the adjustment of the surface tension is ionic, e.g. with sulfosuccinic acid ester or sodium lauryl sulfate, or non-ionic, e.g. Acetylene glycol or nonylphenol ethoxylate or sorbitan stearate.
- the viscosity is between 100 and 200 mPas at 20 ° C.
- the color is e.g. suitable for piezo inkjet printers (e.g., Epson, Xaar)
- the luminescence region 22 with the three Fluo colors # 1 (red), # 3 (blue) and # 4 (green) can be applied in a rainbow pattern with an application rate of 1.5 g / m 2 in offset printing
- the Modification area 26 can be applied with the absorber paint # 1 with an application of 2 g / m 2 in offset printing.
- the modification area can be printed on with the above-mentioned inkjet printing ink (1-2g as dry application).
- FIG. 3 shows a further embodiment of a product fuse element 30, in which the serial plate 20 is formed by a luminescent region 32 which can be excited by UV radiation and which is printed with a visually invisible, green fluorescent color.
- the Fluo-color # 5 can be used with a paint application of 1 g / m 2 .
- This serial number 20 is identical here also in all packaging of the drug M of the manufacturer H and is printed, for example, in the production of the packaging in offset printing.
- the individualization indicator 24 is formed by a modification region 34 which is invisible in the visible spectral range and in which a visually invisible, red fluorescent fluorescent dye in the form of a QR code is printed on the luminescence region 22.
- the Fluo color # 1 can be used in offset printing with a color order of 1 g / m 2 .
- the product fuse element 30 can not be recognized under normal illumination conditions.
- the green fluorescent color of the luminescence region 32 and the red fluorescent color of the modification region 34 are excited to luminesce, so that the luminescence region 32 outside the modification region 34 luminesces green and within the modification region 34 by additive Color mixing gives the mixed color yellow.
- the QR code of the individualization indicator 24 therefore appears clearly contrasting yellow in front of the green luminescent background of the series identifier 20 and can be detected and decrypted, for example, with a smartphone app.
- FIG. 4 shows a modification of the embodiment of Fig. 3 in the form of a product securing element 40, in which the individualization mark 24 in addition to the modification region 34 also includes a supplementary area 42 which is printed with the same, visually invisible, red fluorescent fluorescent color, but which is not arranged above, but adjacent to the luminescence region 32.
- the product securing element 40 when exposed to UV radiation then points next to the green fluorescent background of the luminescence region 32 and the yellow mixed color of the modification region 34 also has a red fluorescent identification component in the supplementary region 42.
- FIG. 5 shows another product securing element 50 according to an embodiment of the invention, wherein Fig. 5 (a) a cross section through the product securing element and Fig. 5 (b) the appearance when excited with UV radiation in supervision shows.
- a UV absorber in the form of desired information is printed on a luminescent region 52, which is printed, for example, with a visually invisible, green fluorescent ink, to form a modification region 54.
- a further luminescent imprint 56 having a visually invisible, red fluorescent fluorescence color is applied to a part of the luminescence region 52 and a part of the modification region 54.
- the further luminescent imprint 56 may be identical for all similar packaging of the medicament and thus together with the luminescence region 52 form the series identifier 20.
- the outline shape of the luminescent imprint 56 is selected differently for each package, for example derived from the batch number via an algorithm, so that the imprint 56 together with the modification area 54 forms the individualization identifier 24 of the product securing element 50.
- all involved regions 52, 54, 56 are printed with colors which are not visible in the visible spectral range, so that the product protection element 50 can not be recognized under normal illumination conditions.
- a first background region 60 of the product fuse element 50 shows green fluorescence since only the green ones are there fluorescent color of the luminescence region 52 is present.
- a first foreground region 62 (here in the form of the sub-digit sequence "667") in which the excitation of the luminescence region 52 is suppressed by the UV absorber in the modification region 54 shows no luminescence and therefore appears dark.
- a second background region 64 the green fluorescent color of the luminescence region 52 and the red fluorescent color of the further luminescent printing 56 produce a yellow color impression through additive color mixing.
- a second foreground region 66 (here in the form of the sub-digit sequence "408"), in which the additional imprint 56 overlies the UV absorber 54, a red fluorescence finally results, since there the excitation of the green luminescence region 52 by the UV absorber is suppressed, and thus only the red fluorescent color of the imprint 56 appears.
- the dark foreground area 62 and the red fluorescent foreground area 66 automatically appear perfectly matched with each other and form the overall number sequence "667408" without the layers 52, 54, 56 having to be matched to each other.
- QR code described by way of example, such as a 1D or 2D bar code or 1D or 2D bar code.
- the luminescence code can be verified, for example, by comparison with a visually visible code, for example a printed batch number or, as described above, by matching the code with a database.
- FIG. 6 In a further embodiment according to the invention, the securing of the closure region 72 of a packaging 70 is illustrated.
- the secured packaging 70 is provided on both sides of the closure region 72 with partial regions 74-1, 74-2 of a luminescence region 74, which is used as a series identifier for all similar packaging 70 is identical.
- the two sides of the closure region 72 are pasted over with an adhesive strip 80 having an individualization mark of the type described above in the form of a modification region 82 invisible in the visible spectral region.
- the modification area 82 is designed in particular in the form of a number, bar, or bar code.
- the individualization identifier and the series identifier together form a product assurance element 84.
- the luminescence region 74 can be formed by printed fluorescent colors and the modification region 82 can be formed by a UV absorber applied to the adhesive strip 80.
- the information contained in the adhesive strip 80 is then revealed only in combination with a fluorescent background, as provided by the luminescent region 74, and can not be taken from the adhesive strip 80 alone.
- the product securing member 84 Upon opening the package 70 or peeling off the adhesive strip 80, the product securing member 84 is destroyed so that an intact product securing member 84 provides assurance of an authentic and unopened product.
