Definitions
- the invention relates to banknotes, in particular banknotes that can be divided without becoming worthless.
- Banknotes are documents with security elements that embody value. They are also referred to as documents of value. Banknotes are issued by banks, usually central banks of states, and serve as a means of payment in order to be able to pay for the value of goods and services.
- Banknotes have a flat substrate, the substrate thickness of which is significantly smaller than the surface area of the banknote.
- the substrate may be any substrate from which banknotes are commonly formed.
- the substrate can be designed in one or more layers and consist of one or more different materials in combination.
- Banknotes are often produced based on a fibrous material, for example cotton fibers, and/or plastic polymers. A large number of security elements are incorporated into the banknote, which are intended to prevent falsification and/or imitation and thus unauthorized production of banknotes.
- Prior art banknotes when issued by the central bank, typically represent a fixed value. However, paying for goods or services often involves amounts that are less than the value of a single banknote. This particularly applies to banknotes with high denominations.
- a banknote with a value of 100 can be divided into six sections via the perforations, for example, of which the outer, narrower sections have a value of 10 and the middle, wider sections have a value of 20. If an equivalent value of 20 is to be paid with this banknote, the separation at the perforations must be carried out in such a way that after the payment process the payer is left with at least two physical units of the divided banknote, after a middle section that embodies the equivalent value of 20 the payment was used.
- the invention is based on the object of improving such divisible banknotes and simplifying their handling and value determination for the user.
- the invention is based on the idea of designing the banknote in such a way that it comprises a mother section and a plurality of child sections and the child sections each adjoin the mother section.
- Predetermined separation lines formed by material weakenings make it possible for the child sections to be separated individually from the mother section and the other child sections, so that, if possible, all child sections not used for the payment process remain connected to the mother section. This improves the handling of the banknote.
- a divisible banknote comprising a flat substrate which comprises a mother section and a plurality of child sections, with material weakenings being formed in the flat substrate, which form at least one predetermined separation line for separating the flat substrate, the mother section and each of the child sections each being at least have a share value indication which indicates the value of the child section after its separation or the value of the mother section after all child sections have been separated, each of the child sections directly adjoining the mother section along one of its section edges, the material weakenings being designed in such a way that each of the child sections can be separated by separating the substrate along the at least one desired separation line.
- the material weakenings are preferably designed as perforations.
- the substrate itself is preferably designed in such a way that several security features are formed in both the mother section and in the child sections, which prevent and/or make it impossible to replicate and/or falsify the respective mother or child section.
- value information is formed on the individual sections, which indicates the value of the individual section after it has been separated and separated. This applies to both the mother section and the child sections.
- the mother section and the several child sections have a common identifier, so that their original association can be determined even after the one or more child sections have been separated.
- the common identifier is formed and stored in each of the child sections and in the parent section. This is done, for example, by printing an alphanumeric identifier that identifies the divisible banknote.
- each of the sections i.e. the parent section and each of the child sections, also has its own unique numbering.
- numbering again refers to an alphanumeric code.
- the banknote has a main denomination formed on the flat substrate, the main denomination extending over the mother section and each of the child sections.
- the main value is preferably specified numerically. Alternatively or additionally, however, it is also possible for the value to be given alphanumeric or only with alphabetic characters in words.
- a part of the main value is formed on each of the sections. In particular, a part of the main value statement, i.e a letter or number of the main value, printed on the corresponding section. If a child section is separated, part of the information is missing and it can be seen that the remaining part of the divided banknote no longer represents the main value.
- At least one group value information is also formed on the flat substrate, the formation of which extends over the mother section and some, but not all, of the child sections or over a group of the child sections, the group value information being the sum of the individual value information of all sections over which the at least one group value information extends.
- the banknote is cleverly designed, its current value corresponds to the largest, completely intact group value after one or more child sections have been divided.
- divisible banknotes can also be used to make a payment at least to the institution issuing the banknotes or the entity behind them without the physical exchange of banknotes or parts of the banknotes.
- the main value information deviates from the sum of the individual values of the individual sections.
- the main value is greater than the sum of the individual values of the mother section and all child sections and information about the main value and the sum of the individual values of the different banknotes is preferably stored on the mother section.
- Payment is made by splitting the banknote during the payment process. This will make the Banknote devalued by the difference between the main value and the sum of the individual values. This difference is collected by the issuing body, for example the state that maintains the central bank.
- this can take place, for example, at the time when the parent section returns to the central bank.
- This makes it possible, for example, to effect payment of fines, for example in road traffic, without the risk that means of payment obtained by corrupt police officers could be embezzled.
- No means of payment is physically exchanged, but rather just cut, which can be done in front of the police and leads to the devaluation of the divisible banknote.
- the individual sections can then be divided and used according to their share value as described above. As long as the banknote remains intact, it has the value of the main value stated on it.
- Fig. 1 is a schematic view of a divisible banknote in the undivided state
- Fig. 2 shows the banknote according to Fig. 1, in a state in which a child section is isolated
- FIG. 3 shows a further schematic representation of a divisible banknote in which a child section has a network of a three-dimensional completely closed body with stabilizing surfaces;
- Fig. 4 is a further schematic view of the divisible banknote, in which the main value is greater than the sum of the individual values in the section.
- a banknote 10 is shown schematically in FIG. This includes a mother section 20 and child sections 30 - 70.
- the banknote 10 is formed from a flat substrate 15.
- the flat substrate 15 has material weakenings 80 along predetermined separation lines 81 - 89, which are formed, for example, by means of perforations.
- the individual child sections 30 - 70 can be moved along the desired separation lines 81 - 89 when the substrate 15 is separated along the desired separation lines 81 - 89 are isolated, ie separated individually from the mother section 20 and the remaining child sections 30 - 70.
- FIG. 2 shows a state in which the child section 70 in the lower right corner 13 is isolated from the rest of the banknote 10, i.e. from the mother section 20 and the remaining child sections 30 - 60.
- the same technical features are marked with identical reference numbers in all figures.
- Each of the sections 20 - 70 has an individual value, which is printed as individual value information 21, 31, 41, 51, 61, 71. These indicate the corresponding individual value of section 20 - 70 if this is separated from the other sections 20 - 70.
- the mother section 20 has an individual value of 5
- the child sections 30 - 70 each have an individual value of 1.
- the main value of banknote 10 is “10”, which corresponds to the sum of the individual values of sections 20 - 70.
- the main value 100 is designed in the letters “ten” so that the print extends over all sections, i.e. the mother section 20 and all child sections 30 - 70. If one of the child sections 30 - 70 is separated from the mother section 20, the lettering “Ten” will be damaged.
- group value information 110, 120 shown here indicates the value of the child sections that were removed together or the remaining value of the Mother section with remaining child sections. If cleverly designed, the largest undamaged group value indicates the value of the interconnected sections 20 - 70. If in doubt, the value can be determined using the sum of the individual values.
- the mother section 20 and the child sections 30 - 70 each have a common identifier 150, in the present embodiment “A7”. This can be designed in any way in the corresponding sections 20 - 70.
- the common identifier 152 - 157 is printed on the individual sections.
- each of the sections 20 - 70 has an individual serial number 162 - 167 which individually identifies the individual section.
- the serial number which is preferably alphanumeric, is C.
- the mother section 20 has the serial number 162 “C1”, the child sections 30 - 70 have the serial numbers 163 - 167 “02” to “06”.
- This simply designed common identifier 150; 152 - 157 as well as the simple design of the serial numbers 160; 162-167 is chosen here for simplicity. For the expert it is clear that more complex identifiers and serial numbers can be selected here.
- FIG. 3 shows a further embodiment as an example, in which a child section 30 in the mother section 20 has a material weakening 80 designed as a perforation, which forms a predetermined separation line 81.
- the child section 30 has the shape of a cube net 91 with the 6 side surfaces 92 and stabilizing surfaces 93, whereby edges 94 of the cube net 91 can be designed as folds, so that after the child section 30 has been separated, this child section 30 can easily be converted into a three-dimensional one Body can be folded.
- the banknote 10 is divided, i.e. one of the child sections 30 - 70 from the parent section 20 is separated, the total value changes by the amount of the difference between the specified main value “20” and the sum of the individual values “10” of all sections 20 - 70.
- the value is halved. This means that a payment to the issuer in the amount of the difference “10” can be made by dividing the banknote 10.
