Definitions

  • the invention relates to a security element having a translucent support material having on a first side a first periodic or near-periodic dot or line print pattern and on a second side thereof a substantially mirror-image second periodic or near-periodic dot or line print pattern, the second dot or line print pattern at least has a partial area in which points or lines are offset relative to the points or lines of the remaining second dot or line printing pattern.
  • the invention further relates to a method for producing such a security element, a data carrier with such a security element and the use of such a security element or data carrier for product security.
  • data carriers such as banknotes, securities, credit or identity cards, passports, certificates and the like, labels, packaging or other elements for product protection are provided with security elements which are printed on both sides, have translucent substrate.
  • security elements which are printed on both sides, have translucent substrate.
  • the protection against forgery of such a security element is based on the fact that, in addition to the printed images of the two sides of the carrier material, it is also possible visually to perceive an image that results in transmitted light as a superimposition of the front and back printed images. The visible image can not be reproduced or insufficiently reproduced by the abovementioned reproduction devices, as a result of which counterfeiting can be easily recognized.
  • a printing method for securing banknotes and other documents against unauthorized imitation known, in which z. B. a banknote from a translucent paper or other carrier material on the front and back with a periodic or almost periodic dot or line pattern is printed.
  • the dot or line pattern in arbitrary sub-areas of the front and back are intentionally offset from each other, so that moire images are generated, which can be detected in transmitted light with the unaided eye and evaluated as an authenticity feature.
  • the documents produced by this process variant provide some protection against imitation, it proves to be disadvantageous that the authenticity feature of a person can be perceived only with the eyes as a sensory organ.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to propose a security element of the type mentioned, which avoids the disadvantages of the known generic security elements, provides an increased level of protection against counterfeiting and can be checked at the same time in a simple manner on its authenticity.
  • a data carrier with such a security element and a method for producing such a security element should be specified.
  • the first dot or line print pattern is combined with an embossed structure which is produced by means of a intaglio printing method.
  • embossing structure is understood in the following any structure that consists of raised and recessed areas of the substrate and can be produced with the embossing tools commonly used in intaglio printing.
  • the embossing tools are deeply engraved plates using various techniques.
  • the first periodic or almost periodic dot or line print pattern interacts with the second dot or line print pattern in such a way that at least one partial area has a visually identifiable information characterizing the authenticity of the security element.
  • a periodic dot or line print pattern is understood below to mean any pattern whose periodicity is that described in the "Pocket Book of Mathematics",
  • the dots or lines forming the dot or line printing pattern are regularly arranged, i. H. the patterns have a recurring interval with respect to the spacing of the dots or lines.
  • a near-periodic dot or line-printing pattern will be understood below to mean any pattern that is not exact but only approximately periodic.
  • a dot matrix can also appear as a line grid, depending on the size and the distances of the dots when the visual resolution is not reached.
  • a sharp demarcation between point and line grids is not required, which is why such is dispensed with.
  • the perceived impression of the first and second dot or line print pattern always refers to viewing in reflected light, that is to say in reflection, unless it is expressly stated that it is the visual impression of the dot or line print pattern in Transparency, ie in transmission.
  • the security element according to the invention By combining the first dot or line printing pattern with an embossed structure, the security element according to the invention not only visually, but also haptically detectable authenticity features.
  • the safety element therefore represents a so-called "human feature” that can be grasped with the eyes and the sense of touch and that makes the authenticity check by "the man or the woman on the street” possible in a simple manner.
  • the counterfeit protection is further increased by the combination with the eyes of perceptible and palpable authenticity features, since the embossed structures of the security element with conventional reproduction techniques, such. B. color copiers, basically can not be played.
  • the embossing structure provided on the first side of the carrier material is to a certain extent always also present as a negative embossed structure on the second side of the carrier material, for which reason the security element can be detected haptically on both sides. As a result, the security against counterfeiting is further increased and the security element has on both sides the grip that the user perceives as typical for a value document.
  • the genuess identifying information is present.
  • any information that indicates the authenticity of the security element to the viewer without the use of auxiliary means is understood below.
  • the easily recognizable additional information of the security element further increases security against counterfeiting since it can not be reproduced or can only be reproduced very insufficiently by reproduction techniques such as scanners or color copiers.
  • the first dot or line printing pattern is a printed layer produced in intaglio printing.
  • the carrier material is thereby provided simultaneously with the first dot or line print pattern and the embossed structure according to the invention, since the intaglio printing method enables the simultaneous application of the printing ink in addition to the production of the embossed structure.
  • Such printing is also referred to as "color-guiding intaglio printing.”
  • the simultaneous application or arrangement of the first dot or line printing pattern or embossing pattern in intaglio printing enables the first side of the security element according to the invention to be printed in one single process step are generated, which proves to save time and money.
  • the printing layer is arranged substantially congruent to the raised regions of the embossed structure.
  • the congruent arrangement of printing layer and embossing structure is particularly pronounced preferred, because as a precise combination of dot or line pattern and embossed structure is possible. The user can perceive the color relief created in color-guiding intaglio printing very well with his sense of touch and his eyes.
  • the first dot or line print pattern is one in offset, screen, flexographic, xerographic, inkjet, thermographic, or a print layer created by a laser printer.
  • Each of the mentioned print layers depending on the method used for them, has certain properties which are well known to the person skilled in the art. The choice of a particular print layer will therefore depend on the intended use of color, the desired resolution, the intended print image, etc.
  • the printing is decoupled from the arrangement of the embossed pattern on the same side of the carrier material.
  • first dot or line printing pattern and the embossing pattern are produced by the separate operations described above, it is particularly advantageous if the first dot or line printing pattern and the embossing pattern for forming an optically variable structure are arranged so that at least parts of the first dot or line printing pattern are completely visible when viewed vertically, but are obscured when viewed obliquely.
  • the optically variable structure produced in this way shows a visually perceptible tilting effect, which on its own already represents an authenticity feature.
  • the embossing master and the printing pattern are in a defined spatial relationship with each other so that raised areas of the embossed structure cover at least parts of the printed pattern when viewed obliquely.
  • an impressive tilting effect requires that the printing layer is arranged at least in a region not congruent with the raised areas of the embossed structure, since otherwise no or only minimally viewing angle-dependent effect occurs.
  • the first dot or line print pattern and / or the second dot or line print pattern is a line grid with a constant screen ruling.
  • the print pattern with constant raster Wide represents a special case of a periodic print pattern, but with the proviso that it has only a defined period that does not change within the print pattern.
  • the printed pattern with a constant screen ruling can be produced relatively accurately with today's printing techniques and, moreover, fits well into an image motif or geometric pattern which may be present on the respective side of the security element.
  • the embossing structure of the security element can be a line grid with a constant screen ruling.
  • Such an embossed structure can be produced precisely with intaglio printing technology and can be combined particularly advantageously with a dot or line printing pattern of the same screen ruling as a line screen. If print pattern and embossed structure, as described above, are produced in a single process step and each well of the intaglio printing plate is filled with color, the combination of a printing pattern and an embossing pattern of the same screen ruling can be accomplished in a simple manner according to this process variant. If printing patterns and embossing, as described above, are produced in separate operations, the same screen ruling must be provided for the printing and embossing.
  • the embossing structure of the first side on the second side of the data carrier forms a substantially negative embossing structure which cooperates with the second dot or line pressure pattern to form an optically variable structure such that at least parts of the second point or Line print pattern are completely visible when viewed vertically, but concealed in oblique view.
  • the embossing structure of the first side always produces, to a certain extent, a negative embossed structure on the second side. If the raised and recessed areas on the second side are sufficiently high or low and combined with a suitable print pattern, the result is always an optically variable structure on the second side.
  • This structure can also be combined with an optically variable structure on the first side of the carrier material.
  • Such a security element with an optically variable structure on both sides of the substrate proves to be exceptionally forgery-proof and gives the security element a high degree of tactility.
  • Fraction of the grid width of the line grid are arranged offset. Particularly preferred is an offset by one third of the grid width of the line grid. In this way, one obtains a partial area with a relatively clearly defined offset with respect to the remaining printing pattern.
  • the second dot or line printing pattern has a plurality of partial regions. In this way can be seen in the transparent and the authenticity of the security element generate identifying information redundant, which is why they may still be visible even after partial destruction of the security element.
  • the dot or line printing pattern prefferably has a plurality of subregions which form a second information which has subareas in the horizontal direction and subareas in the vertical direction, where m, n ⁇ 1, preferably m, n> 2.
  • the security element can be technically complex and thus inherently produce counterfeit-proof.
  • the points or lines of the subregions are offset from the points or lines of the remaining second dot or line printing pattern offset by different fractions of the grid width of the line grid. Due to the different offset of the points or lines in the different subregions, a different brightness of the subregions results when viewed through, because the points or lines of the first and second printing patterns overlap to different degrees. As a result, information characterizing the authenticity can be perceived in the different subareas with a different brightness, which is very appealing to the viewer.
  • the information characterizing the authenticity can also be effected by modulation of the width of the lines in the subregions of the second lineprint pattern.
