Description

  The present invention relates to a scratch printed matter in which confidential information data such as an instant lottery product is concealed by a scratch concealment layer, and in particular, the variable information data is a variable information data composed of a complicated game. The present invention relates to a scratch-printed product with a verification unit that verifies data loss.

  Conventionally, for example, in an instant lottery ticket or a game card, in order to conceal confidential information data such as “winning”, “missing” or a picture corresponding thereto, concealment and scratch-off (ease of scratching) The confidential information data is concealed by the ink having the above), and when the purchased customer uses it, the confidential information data is scratched off with a coin or the like, and the confidential printed data is known and used in various fields.

  As the printed matter having the scratch concealing layer, for example, as shown in the laminated sectional view of FIG. 5, confidential information data (11) such as a picture, characters, numbers, etc. is formed on a base material (30) made of paper or the like. A scratch concealing layer which is printed and has an easy peeling layer (32) formed of a transparent peeling varnish or the like so as to cover the confidential information data (11), and contains aluminum powder or the like on the easy peeling layer (32). (34) is applied, and the customer who has purchased the scratch printed material scratches off the scratch concealment layer (34) with a coin, a nail, etc. Alternatively, confidential information data (11) such as a picture corresponding thereto can be visually recognized.

  However, there is no problem as long as the confidential information data of the above-mentioned scratch print is relatively simple “win” and “out” information, but in recent years, there are many complicated games as this confidential information data. Depending on the grade of the game, there is a game with rich game characteristics that makes it difficult to immediately understand "winning", "missing", etc. Also, a single ticket such as bingo (card etc.) There is a demand for tickets that can be enjoyed for hours.

  In this way, when the information data becomes a complicated game, for example, the “off” ticket and the “winning” ticket are misunderstood at the sales floor, etc., and are exchanged for money, or the grade (eg, 1st, 2nd, etc.) is wrong. There is a problem of paying.

  In addition, in a complicated game, there is a problem that it is difficult to understand “winning”, “missing”, etc., and it takes a lot of time for the judgment.

  Also, as shown in FIG. 6, for example, in a scratch game of “10 million if you add 100 to your favorite number”, if the lowest number in the leftmost column is “07” In the case of “01” and “winning” and coming to cash, or when scratching, the number in the bottom row of the leftmost column was inadvertently destroyed, but “winning” However, there are cases where it is requested to appraise the appraisal, and in any of these cases, verification of the destroyed part (50) is almost impossible or takes a long time. .

  In addition, there are cases where a part of the scratch department or a place where the scratch can be made is provided, and a mark such as “win” or “out” is printed there, and this part is used as a verification section. Those who knew the system enjoyed the game itself, scratched only the verification location and came to cash, or broke the verification location and made it difficult to identify.

  The present invention solves the problems and demands of the prior art, and the problem is that the variable (confidential) information data such as lottery numbers and games are concealed and scratch-off (easy to scratch). ) In the scratch prints concealed with ink, it is possible to easily and accurately verify (interpret) the winnings and grades of numbers, games, etc., especially complex games, etc. Even if it is devised so as not to impair the fun of the game, and the security is maintained, even if a part of the game part is intentionally or carelessly destroyed, the winning etc. It is an object of the present invention to provide a scratch printed matter with a verification unit that can be easily verified.

  In order to achieve the above object in the present invention, first, in the invention of claim 1, a game part in which variable information data constituting a game is printed on one side of a base material, and adjacent to the game part, In the printed matter with a verification unit, which is linked to the variable information data and has a verification unit on which verification data representing the success or the like is printed, the game unit scratches the variable information data through an easy peeling layer so as to cover the variable information data. A masking layer is applied, and the verification unit is provided with a black masking layer that does not contain an infrared absorbing material so as to cover the verification data, and at least the verification data is printed with ink containing an infrared absorbing material. It is set as the scratch printed matter with a verification part.

  In the invention of claim 2, the black masking layer applied so as to cover the verification data is a scratch masking layer containing a metal powder and / or carbon black that absorbs infrared rays through the easy peeling layer. The scratch printed matter with a verification unit according to claim 1, wherein the printed matter is a scratch printed matter.

  According to a third aspect of the present invention, the infrared absorbing material contained in the ink for printing the verification data is made of carbon black or infrared absorbing dye, and the ink containing the carbon black or infrared absorbing dye contains the variable information data. The scratch-printed product with a verification unit according to claim 1 or 2, which is the same as the ink to be printed.

  According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, there is provided the scratch printed matter with a verification part according to the first, second or third aspect, wherein the base material is provided with a light shielding layer.

  Furthermore, in the invention of claim 5, the white concealment is performed on the entire surface including the scratch concealment layer of the game unit and the black concealment layer of the verification unit or the scratch concealment layer containing a metal powder and / or carbon black that absorbs infrared rays. The printed pattern layer is provided through the layer, and the scratch printed matter with a verification unit according to claim 1, 2, 3, or 4 is provided.

In addition to being easy to make ink (toner), the same information is used for printing the variable information data of the game section, so that the verification data and the variable information data of the game section can be used on the same device (same line, etc.) There is an effect that printing can be performed simultaneously.

  According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the variable information data of the game unit before scratching and the verification data of the verification unit are visually recognized from the opposite side when a strong light is held by applying a light shielding layer to the base material. It is possible to make a scratch printed matter with a verification unit without fear.

  Furthermore, the invention according to claim 5 includes the scratch concealment layer of the game unit and the black concealment layer of the verification unit, or the scratch concealment layer including a metal powder and / or carbon black that absorbs infrared rays. By applying a printed pattern layer to the entire surface via a white hiding layer, consumers can not even know the presence of the black hiding layer in the verification section, and the printed design with the verification section has been improved to improve the design of this printed material. There is an effect that can be provided.

  Therefore, the present invention exerts an excellent practical effect as a scratch printed matter including a particularly complicated game in which variable (confidential) information data such as a lottery number and a game is concealed by a scratch concealment layer.

  The best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a front view showing an example of a scratch printed matter with a verification unit of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional side view showing an example of a scratch printed matter with a verification unit of the present invention, and FIG. It is a lamination side sectional view showing other examples. FIG. 4 is a front view showing an example when the verified printed scratch printed matter of the present invention is fraudulent.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the present invention has a game unit (100) on a base material and a verification unit (100) adjacent to the game unit (100), and the game unit (100) includes a large number of games. The variable information data (10) is printed, and a scratch concealing layer (not shown) is applied on the variable information data (10) via an easily peelable layer. The variable information data (10) scratches off the scratch concealing layer. If you do not, you can not see. In the verification unit (200), verification data (20) representing the winning or grade of the variable information data (10) is printed, and a black masking layer (not shown) is applied thereon. The verification data (20) is not visible to the consumer.

When the consumer who has purchased the printed scratch with verification unit (1) scratches off the game unit (100) with a coin or the like, the variable information data (10) appears, and the variable information data (10
) After having enjoyed the game in accordance with), bring the verification of the game's winnings and grades to a sales office, etc., and verify it with a dedicated verification machine such as an infrared monitor, and receive cash for the verification data (20). It is.

  The above-mentioned scratch printed matter with verification part (1) of the present invention will be described in more detail. As shown in FIG. 2 (a), for example, a high-quality paper having a basis weight of about 150 to 200 g / m2 is used as a base material (30), A light-shielding layer (30a) is printed with black ink or the like, and a transparent ink receiving layer (31) mainly composed of polyacetal resin is applied to the surface.

  The variable information data (10) according to the game absorbs infrared rays by carbon ink or infrared absorbing dyes such as phthalocyanine-based ink jets at locations corresponding to the game part (100) on the ink receiving layer (31). It is printed with ink-jet ink that uses naphthalocyanine, anthraquinone, colonic methine, etc. as the colorant, and at the same time, the same as the game part in the same way as the verification part (200) on the ink receiving layer (31). Verification data (20) representing a winning or the like linked to variable information data (10) constituting the game is printed with ink.

  Furthermore, in the game unit (100), an easy peeling layer having a thickness of 3 to 10 μm is applied by applying a gravure method or the like with a peeling varnish in which about 5% of silicon is added to polyurethane acrylic resin so as to cover the variable information data (10). (32) is formed, and a scratch concealing layer (34) having a thickness of 3 to 10 μm is formed thereon by scratch printing with a scratch ink obtained by adding aluminum powder to the SBR resin.

  On the other hand, in the verification unit (200), mixed-color ink that does not contain an infrared absorbing material so as to cover the verification data (20) printed in this department (black ink by mixing process ink excluding black ink) A black masking layer (36) having a thickness of about 0.5 to 5 μm is applied by pattern printing using flexo printing, offset printing, or gravure printing.

  Subsequently, the entire surface including the above-obtained scratch concealment layer (34) in the game unit (100) and the black concealment layer (36) in the verification unit (200) is made of a pigment mainly composed of titanium white. A white printed layer (37) is applied to the white ink by offset printing or gravure printing, and a printed pattern layer (38) is formed thereon by offset printing or the like to obtain a scratch printed matter (1) with a verification unit.

  As the printed pattern layer (38), at least in the verification section (200), it is preferable not to include a pattern of black ink using carbon black as a pigment. In particular, characters and numbers made of this black ink must be avoided. This is because the detection by the infrared monitor as a dedicated verification machine may overlap with the verification data (20), and may not be detected or erroneously detected.

  Further, when the density of the verification data (20) is high, the readability on an infrared monitor or the like is improved. However, if the density of the black hiding layer (36) made of mixed-colored ink is low and sufficient printing is not ensured, printing is performed. Since there is a concern that the verification data (20) thus viewed is visually recognized, the density of the verification data (20) in the visible light region and the density of the black hiding layer (36) made of mixed-colored ink are substantially equal or the verification data (20 ) Is preferred.

When the consumer who has purchased the scratch printed matter (1) with the verification unit configured as described above scratches off the game unit with coins in accordance with the game message (scratch off the game unit), for example, FIG. As shown in (b), the white hiding layer (37) and the printed pattern layer (38) are peeled off together with the scratch hiding layer of the game unit (100), and the variable information data (10 ) Will be visible. Further, the verification part (200) adjacent to this is not peeled because there is no scratch layer even when scratched off, and is visually recognized because it is covered with the white hiding layer (37) and the printed pattern layer (38). Is impossible, and even its existence is unknown.

  Further, as the light shielding layer (30a) to be applied to the base material (30), for example, as shown in FIG. 3A, a base material in which a light shielding paper is laminated as a light shielding layer (30a) between two high-quality papers and the like ( 30).

  As shown in FIG. 2A and FIG. 3A described above, the substrate (30) provided with the light shielding layer (30a) gives, for example, strong light and is viewed from the opposite side. In addition, the verification unit with improved reliability that cannot illegally view the variable information data (10) of the game unit (100) before the scratch-off and the verification data (20) representing the success of the verification unit (200), etc. A scratch print (1) can be obtained.

  Further, in the present invention, as shown in FIG. 3A, for example, printing with a laser beam on the base material (30) of the verification unit (200) and the game unit (100), that is, electronic (photographic) toner (ink). The verification data (20) and the variable information data (10) are printed by the transfer method of (2), and the verification unit (200) uses a transparent peeling varnish on the black masking layer (36) made of mixed-colored ink not containing an infrared absorbing material. A scratch concealing layer (34) having a thickness of 3 to 10 μm is formed by a screen printing method using a scratch ink obtained by adding aluminum powder to SBR resin through an easily peelable layer (32), followed by the verification obtained above. The white ink composed of a pigment mainly composed of titanium white is offset on the entire surface including the scratch concealment layer (34) of the part (200) and the scratch concealment layer (34) of the game part (100). White hiding layer (37) applied by printing or gravure printing method, it is also possible to the print pattern layer by offset printing on (38) scratch prints with verification portion formed (1).

  As described above, the variable information data (10) and the verification data (20) are printed by the toner (ink) transfer method using laser light. In this case, the ink jet method as shown in FIG. The ink-receiving layer (31) is not necessary as in the case of printing by. Other printing methods include, for example, a thermal ribbon transfer method using a thermal head (in this case, a transfer layer containing a pigment mainly composed of carbon black is formed on the ribbon), a dot impact method (ink in this case) In any of these systems, the ink receiving layer (31) is unnecessary.

  As described above, by applying the scratch concealment layer (34) to the verification unit (200), as shown in FIG. 3B, when the consumer scratches off the game unit (100), the transparent easy peeling The variable information data (10) is visually recognized through the layer (32) and the game can be enjoyed. Even if the verification unit (200) is scratched off, the black masking layer (32) is passed through the transparent easy peeling layer (32). 36) can be seen, but the verification data (20) is not visible, and the existence of this cannot be known. The black concealing layer (36) which does not contain this infrared absorbing substance by an infrared monitor or the like at a sales office or the like. ) Through which the verification data (20) contained in the carbon black that absorbs infrared rays can be read.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3 (a), by applying a scratch concealing layer (34) containing aluminum powder or carbon black that absorbs infrared rays to the verification unit (200), a dedicated verification machine such as a sales office can be provided. It is now impossible to perform fraudulent acts such as reading the verification data of the pre-sale ticket at the place where it is provided, and extracting only the ticket corresponding to “winning” etc., unless this scratch concealment layer is scratched off. Scratch printed matter with verification part (1)
It is.

  Examples of the infrared monitor as the dedicated verification machine include a sensor or an infrared camera that cuts light in the visible region by irradiating a laser beam having a wavelength of 750 nm, 780 nm, 810 nm, 830 nm, 905 nm, 940 nm or the like with a semiconductor laser. Thus, the verification data (20) is identified as a positive pattern of the white background.

  The scratch printed matter (1) with the verification unit configured as described above cannot be visually confirmed by the consumer on the verification data (20) indicating the winnings, but it can be easily and accurately detected on an infrared monitor at a sales office or the like. Verification is possible. That is, as shown in FIG. 4, for example, in the scratch printed matter (1) with a verification part “10 million if a favorite number is added,” when the game part (100) is scratched, the lowest number in the leftmost column is “ Even in the case of deliberately destroying what was "07" and coming to cash for "01" if it was "winning", the verification part ( 200) is scratched off (when the scratch concealment layer is applied), and the verification data (20) of “displacement” is read on the infrared monitor, and the destroyed portion (50) is not “01” It has been found that this kind of fraud can also be prevented. Further, it is possible to obtain a scratch printed matter (1) with a verification unit that can easily and accurately read the verification data (20) even when it is destroyed carelessly.
