Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is a concealment information carrier used for an international telephone card, an Internet connection card, a net small payment card, a lottery, etc., and in particular, concealment information having a structure in which confidential information such as a personal identification number or lottery number is concealed by a scratch layer. It relates to a carrier.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, as this type of concealment information carrier, concealment information is printed on a base material, an OP varnish for protecting the concealment information is applied thereon, and further, it can be peeled off by silk screen printing. Those having a scratch layer are generally used.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the above-described concealment information carrier, in order to prevent the concealment information from being seen through, it is desirable that the peelable scratch layer is formed by depositing ink in a thickness of about 5 to 6 μm. However, there is a situation in which it is difficult to actually manage the ink volume. Therefore, in order to prevent the concealment information from being visible through the back side with a powerful light source, there are prints with a dark color pattern printed on the back side or prints with a dark color base under the concealment information. In addition, there is a printed pattern (background pattern) on the ground. In addition, in order to obtain a concealing effect, for example, a special base material such as paper with a metal reflection layer interposed therebetween is used.
[0004]
However, in the type that forms a pattern on the back side to prevent it from being visible through the back side, there is a problem that the design is limited because a dark color is used for the design, and the back side printing process increases. There are also problems. In addition, there is a problem in that a dark color background or background pattern is printed under the concealment information, resulting in a dark color as a whole. In addition, the type using a special base material has a problem of high cost.
[0005]
The present invention is intended to solve these problems. The object of the present invention is to reduce the burden of managing the amount of ink in the scratch layer, and it is not necessary to use a special base material. Is to provide.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above object, the concealment information carrier of the present invention has concealment information formed on a base material, and a transparent protective layer is provided to cover the concealment information. impersonation information is formed alternately with concealed information, is formed with a further scratch layer over the impersonation information, even disguised information and scrape a scratch layer is characterized by being adapted to be shaved off together.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0008]
FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing a concealment information carrier according to the present invention. FIGS. 2A and 2B are plan views of the concealment information carrier viewed from the front side and the back side, respectively, and FIG. 2B shows a state in which light can be seen through the back side.
[0009]
As shown in FIG. 1, the concealment information carrier 10 has concealment information 12 formed on a base material 11, and a transparent protective layer 13 is provided to cover the concealment information 12. The concealment information carrier 10 can be peeled off on the transparent protective layer 13. The fake information 14 is alternately formed with the concealment information 12, and the scratch layer 15 is formed to cover the fake information 14. In FIG. 2B, numerals 1, 2, 3, and 4 are concealment information 12, and numerals 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are impersonation information 14.
[0010]
The base material 11 is not particularly limited, and general-purpose card paper and plastic sheets are used. Then, concealment information 12 is formed on the substrate 11 by printing or printing. In this case, various types of concealment information 12 are used depending on the application. In addition to the numbers as shown, for example, arbitrary characters, symbols, various patterns, and the like can be given.
[0011]
It is preferable from the viewpoint of cost that the transparent protective layer 13 is formed by applying OP varnish to the base material 11 from above the concealment information 12. Of course, you may form by other methods, such as vinyl sticking.
[0012]
The camouflage information 14 is formed by silk screen printing using ink of the same color as the concealment information 12 or by silk screen printing using ink having a color or density different from that of the scratch layer 15. Alternatively, printing may be performed by a printer or the like as long as it can be formed so as to be peelable. The scratch layer 15 is formed by silk screen printing so as to cover the fake information 14.
[0013]
When viewed from the front side, the concealment information carrier 10 has the scratch layer 15 exposed on the surface as shown in FIG. 2A, and both the concealment information 12 and the camouflage information 14 are hidden underneath. . Then, as shown in FIG. 2B, even if the concealment information 14 is visible through the back side of the concealment information carrier 10, the disguise information 14 is also visible as with the concealment information 12. It becomes possible, and since both pieces of information appear to be mixed, it is impossible to grasp accurate information.
[0014]
When the scratch layer 15 of the concealment information carrier 10 is scraped off, the camouflage information 14 is also scraped off, and the concealment information 12 is visible as shown in FIG. Of course, even if the light is seen through the back side, only the concealment information 12 can be seen as shown in FIG.
[0015]
In order to prevent the concealment information from being analogized by the arrangement of the concealment information and the camouflage information, the concealment information and the camouflage information are preferably arranged alternately on a straight line or a curve, for example. 4 (A) and 4 (B) are explanatory views showing such an arrangement example, in which (1) to (6) indicate concealment information, and 1 to 6 indicate impersonation information.
[0016]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, in the concealment information carrier of the present invention, concealment information is formed on a base material, and a transparent protective layer is provided to cover the concealment information. There are formed alternately with concealed information, it is formed with a further scratch layer over the impersonation information, by adopting a configuration in which even disguised information and scrape a scratch layer adapted to be shaved off together, by light Even if the concealment information can be seen through, the camouflage information can be viewed in the same manner as the concealment information, and both pieces of information appear to be interlaced, so that accurate information is not found. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the management burden of the ink deposit amount of the scratch layer. Moreover, at the time of use since it is Kezurito impersonation information with the scratch layer can be visually only hiding information. In addition, it is not necessary to use a special base material in order to provide a concealing effect, and the cost can be reduced.
