BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a driver's license, a health insurance card, a passport and the like, which is used for certifying an individual's identity, so that a predetermined part is prevented from being copied. Regarding proof holder.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A driver's license, a health insurance card, a passport and the like have various personal information for confirming the identity of the person, such as a photograph of the person, his / her name, permanent address and address. for that reason,
These certificates are often used to prove an individual's identity.

[0003] For example, when purchasing a mobile phone or the like, it is required to present an identification card (identification card) in a procedure such as a contract.
You may be presented with a driver's license or health insurance card. These ID cards are copied by an agent or the like and used to confirm the address or the like.

[0004]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, if the ID card is copied as it is, all matters described on the ID card, such as permanent registration not necessary for the procedure and personal information of family members other than the person himself / herself, will be copied. There is. These pieces of personal information are likely to be misused, and in some cases, give offense to customers from the viewpoint of privacy protection.

A method is conceivable in which, out of the information written on the ID card, the items that the customer does not want to copy are hidden by paper or tape. However, this method requires much labor and time, and the processing efficiency decreases.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object thereof is to make it easy to hide predetermined information when copying an identification card. Another object of the present invention is to make it possible to easily hide a predetermined part of the identification card or predetermined information. Further, the present invention provides
The purpose of various procedures that require the presentation of identification is to simplify and expedite the processing of procedures.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, the ID holder according to the first aspect of the present invention is an ID card (for example, driver's license, health insurance card, passport).
Is stored (there is no need to store the whole), and a mask for hiding the predetermined information is provided at a position overlapping the predetermined information of the items described on the identification card in a state where the identification card is stored. To do.

According to this configuration, for example, a person who wants to make a copy of the ID card can store the ID card in this ID holder so that certain items such as family register information and date of birth are hidden by a mask. You can make a copy of the ID card while it is in the open position. That is, it is possible to copy the ID card in consideration of privacy with a very simple process. Therefore,
For example, even when an agent or the like keeps an ID card from a customer and makes a copy of the ID card, it is possible to give the customer a sense of security and contribute to the trust of the customer without lowering work efficiency.

Further, the identification card holder according to the second aspect of the present invention is formed by stacking two sheets and connecting the ends to each other, and the identification card is provided between the two sheets. A mask for concealing the predetermined information is provided at a position overlapping with the predetermined information of the items to be written on the identification card in a state where the identification information is stored while sandwiched.

According to this structure, it is possible to obtain an ID card holder having a simple structure in which two sheets are superposed (including a case where one sheet is folded into two). Moreover, like the ID holder according to the first aspect, it is possible to easily prevent copying of predetermined information such as privacy-related matters on the ID.

The ID holder is formed, for example, by laminating rectangular transparent sheets, and is connected to each other at two adjacent sides. In other words, the ID holder has, for example, a rectangular shape and is formed in a bag shape with two sides open. In this case, it is desirable that a mask be formed at a position overlapping with the predetermined information when the identification card is pressed against a corner formed by two connected sides. With this configuration, the position of the identification card can be easily aligned and the predetermined information can be hidden by the mask simply by pressing the corner of the identification card against the corner of the identification holder.

For example, on one surface of the ID holder,
The first is placed at a position overlapping the predetermined information on the stored first ID card.
The second mask is formed on the other surface at a position overlapping the predetermined information of the stored second ID card. By changing the direction of the ID holder surface, a plurality of ID cards can be obtained. It is configured so that it can correspond to the certificate. For example, as a driver's license, there are a small-sized driver's license (new model) and a large-sized driver's license (old model). In such a case, for example, by forming a mask on one surface at a position overlapping with the predetermined information of the small-sized driver's license, and forming a mask on the other surface at a position overlapping with the predetermined information of the large-sized driver's license. By simply changing the orientation of the ID holder, you can handle small and large sizes.

When actually copying the ID card, for example, an ID holder is prepared in advance, and it is determined whether the ID card to be copied is the first ID card or the second ID card. Then, according to the discrimination result, the ID card to be copied is sandwiched in the ID holder so as to face one surface or the other surface of the ID holder, the predetermined information of the ID card is hidden by a mask, and the predetermined information is masked by the mask. Make a copy with the ID holder hidden.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In the present embodiment, the ID holder of the present invention (driver's license copy holder) will be described as the driver's license.

(First Embodiment) As shown in FIG. 1A, an ID card holder 100 according to the first embodiment has a structure in which a transparent film 101 is folded in two. The dimensions are slightly larger than the driver's license, for example,
The length is 5.5 to 7 cm and the width is 10 to 12 cm. One side 102 of the film 101 is connected by welding or the like.

In other words, the substantially rectangular transparent film 1
01 has two sides connected to each other so as to overlap two sheets, and is configured in a bag shape (however, two sides are in an open state).

As a result, as shown in FIG. 1B, the ID card can be stored by sandwiching it between the transparent films 101.

In the ID card holder 100 shown in FIG. 1A, as shown in FIG. 1B, a driver's license is provided at one corner 103 of the ID card holder 100 (a connecting point between the closed sides 102 and 105). The mask 104 is provided so that when the driver's license 110 is sandwiched by aligning (pressing) one corner 111 of the certificate 110, the mask 104 is overlapped with the area 112 where the permanent registration is described. The mask 104 has, for example, a width of 0.3c
m, length 9.0 cm, formed by coating white paint. As a result, as shown in FIG. 1B, when the driver's license 110 is stored in the identification holder 100, the area 112 in which the permanent registration is written is blindfolded.

In the state shown in FIG. 1 (b), the driver's license 11
When 0 is copied, the area hidden by the mask 104 is not copied. Therefore, it is possible to easily take a copy of the driver's license 110 in which the main address is not displayed.

There are two types of driver's license sizes, a new relatively small size (card size) and an old relatively large size. In order to accommodate a driver's license of any size, as shown in FIG. 2, an ID holder 10 corresponding to two types of driver's licenses is provided.
It is sufficient to prepare 0 and 200. That is, the card holder holds all or part of the driver's license, and the ID holder that masks the domicile, and the car holder holds all or part of the large-sized driver's license, and masks the domicile. It is only necessary to prepare the ID holder to be used in advance. Further, an ID holder corresponding to a passport or insurance card may be prepared.

(Second Embodiment) In the first embodiment, it is necessary to prepare plural kinds of ID holders in order to deal with plural kinds of ID cards, which is inconvenient.
Therefore, an ID holder that can be used for multiple types of IDs will be described below with an example of an ID holder that can be commonly used for both new and old driver's licenses.

ID card holder 300 of the second embodiment
As shown in FIG. 3A, the shape is slightly larger than the old-type driver's license so that both the card-sized driver's license and the old-type driver's license larger than the card-sized driver's license can be stored ( For example, length 9.0cm, width 11.5c
m). The ID holder 300 has a shape in which the transparent film 301 is folded in half along the side 306 (including a shape in which two transparent films are laminated).

One side 302 of the film 301 is connected and closed by welding, fusing, bonding or the like. As a result, as shown in FIG. 3B or 3C, a card-sized driver's license 3 is placed in one corner 303 of the ID holder 300.
Corner 311 of 10 and corner 3 of old-type driver's license 320
21 can be stored together.

As shown in FIG. 3B, when a card-sized driver's license 310 is sandwiched on one surface 301a of the ID holder 300 shown in FIG. A mask 304 is provided so as to overlap with. The mask 304 has a shape with a width of 0.3 cm and a length of 9.0 cm, for example, and is formed by coating with white paint. As a result, FIG.
As shown in (b), when the card-sized driver's license 310 is stored in the ID holder 300, the area 312 in which the permanent registration is written is blindfolded.

The other side 301 of the ID holder 300
As shown in FIG. 3C, a mask 305 is provided in b so as to overlap the area 322 in which the permanent registration is described when the old-type driver's license 320 larger than the card size is sandwiched. The mask 305 has, for example, a width of 0.4c
m, length 10.0 cm, formed by coating with white paint. As a result, FIG.
As shown in (c), when the old-type driver's license 320 is stored in the ID holder 300, the area 322 in which the permanent registration is written is blindfolded.

When a driver's license is copied using this ID holder, the driver's license to be copied is new.
Determine which is the old type, and according to the determination result,
Insert the driver's license into the ID holder so that the surface to be copied faces one or the other side of the ID holder and press it lightly against the corner to copy the entire ID holder. Therefore, a driver's license of any size can be handled with simple work.

Further, whether the driver's license is a new type or an old type is discriminated by a sensor based on its size, and based on the discrimination result, the surface to be copied faces the one or the other surface of the ID holder. As you can see, rotate the driver's license and insert it into the ID holder, and then insert the driver's license into the copy device.
It is also possible to use a copying system.

As described above, in the second embodiment, a card-size driver's license mask 304 is provided on one surface 301a of the ID holder 300, and an old-type driver's license is provided on the other surface 301b. By providing the license mask 305, it is possible to store two types of driver's licenses in one ID holder 300, and to hide the main domicile described in each driver's license.

Therefore, in the state shown in FIG. 3B or 3C, by copying the card-sized driver's license 310 or the old model driver's license 320, the area hidden by the mask 304 or 305 is copied. Driver license 310 or 32 that is not displayed, that is, the legal domicile is not displayed
You can make a copy of 0.

Therefore, the ID holder 100, 200 or 300 described in the present embodiment is prepared in an agent or the like, and the ID of the customer is displayed in front of the customer.
By sandwiching between 0, 200 or 300 and copying,
You can ask the customer to confirm that the permanent copy is not copied. Therefore, copying the ID card does not cause distrust or discomfort to the customer.

In this embodiment, a white paint is used for the mask, but the color is not limited to white and may be colored, for example, black. Further, although a specific information can be visually observed by mainly absorbing or reflecting a light beam having a specific wavelength from a light source of a copying machine, a mask may be used so as to prevent copying. In any case, it is sufficient if it is possible to prevent the masked information from being copied.

Further, in the present embodiment, the ID holder is made of a transparent film, but it may be made of a semi-transparent or colored film as long as characters or the like can be clearly copied.

Further, in the present embodiment, the ID card holder having a substantially rectangular shape has been described. However, the shape is arbitrary as long as the ID card can be sandwiched, the mask and the predetermined position of the ID card can be easily aligned with each other, and the mask is not easily displaced when copying. For example, it may be a triangle or a quadrangle.

Further, in the present embodiment, the ID holder for hiding the main domicile has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and is similarly applicable to an ID holder that protects other information such as age, date of birth, and gender (information that does not necessarily need to be copied) from copying. .

Further, in the present embodiment, the ID holder for the driver's license has been described, but the present invention can be applied to various IDs such as a health insurance card and a passport.

In the present embodiment, the ID card holder that can be taken in and out has been described. However, the ID card itself may be covered with a pouch or the like by a film having a mask formed thereon.
