Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a label, a system comprising such a label and a method for forming such a label.
  • Labels are used to prove origin or to provide information that can be requested if necessary.
  • Electronic labels have conductor track structures that form, for example, a coil or antenna unit for RFID functionality. It is always a challenge to contribute to cost-effective production of the label and also to enable reliable and secure functionality for an intended application.
  • a label for forming a multilayer conductor track structure comprises a first label section and an adjacent second label section.
  • the first label section has a first conductor track structure which comprises a plurality of conductor tracks which are electrically coupled to a first connection point by means of a further conductor track.
  • the second label section has a second conductor track structure which comprises a plurality of conductor tracks which are electrically coupled to a second connection point by means of a further conductor track.
  • the two conductor track structures are formed on or at a common carrier layer and can be arranged one above the other with respect to a stacking direction by means of folding along a fold line, so that a folded label can be formed.
  • the label can be used to create a multi-layer conductor track arrangement in a simple and cost-effective manner, for example a coil or drilling protection arrangement.
  • the label is simply folded along one or more fold lines to form a two- or multi-layer conductor track arrangement. Folding is therefore a cost-effective replacement compared to multiple printing and laminating steps to create layers lying one on top of the other.
  • the two conductor track structures are preferably formed on a common side of the carrier layer and can be folded towards and/or away from each other along the fold line.
  • the two conductor track structures face each other and are surrounded by the carrier layer or face away from each other, so that the carrier layer is partially arranged between the two conductor track structures.
  • one conductor track structure or a section thereof can be formed on an opposite side of the carrier layer relative to the other.
  • the first conductor track structure is formed on the top side and the second conductor track structure is formed on the bottom side of the carrier layer.
  • the conductor track structures can be folded inwards and protected by the carrier layer.
  • the conductor track structure can be folded outwards to be more easily accessible and easier to contact.
  • the associated output label provides correspondingly specified conductor track structures, which are formed next to one another on the common carrier layer, in particular during a printing process.
  • the carrier layer is designed, for example, as a paper or plastic element, for example as a PET film element, and provides a support structure for the conductor track structures. No different printing processes are required to provide several printing layers on top of one another. The label described thus provides an efficient way of forming an electrically conductive multi-layer structure.
  • the conductor track structures each have, for example, several straight sections, each of which has a different main direction of extension to adjacent further sections and is mainly described in this description as a conductor track of the associated conductor track structure. If the conductor tracks or the conductor track sections are connected to one another, the sections can alternatively also be viewed as just one connected conductor track of the conductor track structure. In addition, individual or all conductor tracks or conductor track sections of a conductor track structure can also be non-straight.
  • conventional arrangements for multi-layer labels comprise a printing process for applying conductive structures to a substrate and then overprinting with an insulating layer, on which in turn another layer of a conductive structure is printed in order to form a multi-layer label with conductive structures.
  • Each individual printing layer requires a separate pass through a printing machine and requires corresponding time and costs.
  • Such process steps cause additional time and material expenditure and increase the manufacturing costs.
  • a particularly high level of precision is also required, which is difficult to ensure with multiple overprinting, so waste and further costs must be taken into account.
  • a conventional arrangement can be realized by printing several conductive structures on several substrates and then arranging and laminating the individual printed substrates one on top of the other.
  • Several printed layers of functional materials on top of each other result in higher cumulative production costs and contribute to a certain amount of material waste.
  • each individual printed layer requires a separate pass through a printing machine.
  • contacts must be made between individual film layers.
  • Such through-plating requires, for example, the production of holes or openings, which are subsequently filled with conductive Materials such as silver or carbon paste must be filled. This means that additional work steps with a very high level of precision are required.
  • different parameters such as different film batches, different influences on substrates during different production steps, such as different silver batches or different screens and different production times, have a negative impact on the precision when laying conductor track structures on top of one another and thus result in increased production waste.
  • a multi-layered conductor track structure can be created by printing the label sections side by side once and then folding them over one another.
  • the conductive connections of the individual label sections can be printed at the same time without any additional effort.
  • time-consuming through-plating after laminating can be eliminated. Costs can be reduced because only one or at least fewer printing steps are required.
  • identical conditions when producing the individual label sections contribute to high precision when laying one on top of the other and also reduce label waste.
  • the conductor tracks of the first conductor track structure and the second conductor track structure are formed in a meandering shape, so that the label is designed to form a multi-layer drilling protection arrangement in a folded state.
  • the conductor tracks of the first conductor track structure can be oriented transversely to the stacking direction in relation to a lateral direction of the label, parallel to and offset from the conductor tracks of the second conductor track structure.
  • the fold line between the two conductor track structures which are arranged one above the other after folding, can be arranged asymmetrically, so that when folding, for example, the conductive conductor tracks of the first conductor track structure on one side of the carrier layer are above the gaps between the conductor tracks of the second conductor track structure. come to rest on the opposite side of the carrier layer and form a closed surface in the projection.
  • the conductor tracks of the first and second conductor track structure for example in relation to a top view, create a continuous protective surface that cannot be passed through without damage using a micro drill.
  • the conductor tracks of the first and second conductor track structures can be printed adjacent to one another with respect to a projection within a common plane or can be designed such that they overlap one another in sections along a lateral direction of the label. If the conductor tracks of the first and second conductor track structures are designed to be straight and parallel, for example, the folded label then results in a strip-shaped overlap of adjacent conductor tracks of the first and second conductor track structures with respect to a top view, which corresponds to a projection within a common plane.
  • the conductor tracks of the first and second conductor track structures can alternatively be designed such that they are oriented obliquely or perpendicular to one another. The conductor tracks of the first and second conductor track structures then form a grid structure with several overlapping sections, for example with respect to a top view along the stacking direction.
  • Payment information that is temporarily stored on a card payment reader is of interest to unauthorized persons, such as thieves or hackers. It is therefore urgently necessary to improve the security of such card payment readers in order to prevent unauthorized access.
  • unauthorized persons try to gain access to the payment information on a card payment reader using an instrument, for example a micro drill or a laser.
  • an instrument for example a micro drill or a laser.
  • microscopically small holes can be made in the housing of the card payment reader through which the stored payment information can be read.
  • the described label enables the formation of a drilling protection arrangement, which is attached, for example, inside the card payment reader, and provides reliable protection against such an access attempt and can contribute to improving the security of such card payment readers.
  • the Connection points of the label or the drilling protection arrangement are signal-coupled to the electronics of the device to be protected, and if the conductor tracks are damaged by an unauthorized attempt at access, the stored data of the electronic device is immediately deleted.
  • a drilling protection arrangement can be provided in a simple and cost-effective manner, which provides reliable protection for stored data of an electronic device.
  • the drilling protection arrangement can be printed on a common label web in particular and, as a folded label, can create a layer stack with a plurality of printed functional layers and be referred to as a drilling protection element or drilling protection film.
  • the drilling protection arrangement can reliably protect electronic devices against unauthorized access.
  • one or more protective lacquer layers can be provided, which cover the conductor track structures in sections or completely as an alternative or in addition to insulation layers.
  • the label can also be designed such that the conductor tracks of the first conductor track structure are designed in a meandering shape and surround each other in a spiral, and/or the conductor tracks of the second conductor track structure are designed in a meandering shape and surround each other in a spiral, so that the label is designed to form a multi-layer coil arrangement in a folded state.
  • the first and the second conductor track structure each comprise a connection point which is surrounded by the respective conductor tracks in a meandering and spiral shape and which is electrically coupled to the associated connection point by means of a respective further conductor track.
  • the respective conductor track structures can be designed such that an electrical coupling of the respective conductor track structures is set up before and/or after folding.
  • the label is designed such that the first and the second conductor track structures are electrically coupled to one another both before and after folding along the fold line.
  • This can be realized in particular by a connecting conductor track that extends between the first and the second label section and electrically connects the two conductor track structures to one another. If the fold line between the label sections, the connecting conductor track accordingly crosses the fold line at least once.
  • the label can be designed such that the first and the second conductor track structure each comprise one or more connecting sections and are designed such that they are spaced apart from one another before folding and are electrically coupled to one another after folding along the fold line by means of the connecting sections.
  • the connecting sections are designed to be coordinated with one another in terms of position and geometry so that they come into contact with one another after folding and establish a reliable electrical coupling of the respective conductor track structures.
  • connecting sections assigned to one another are designed with respect to the stacking direction such that together they have a predetermined height that is greater than a total height of conductor tracks of the first and second conductor track structures facing one another.
  • the label can be designed such that conductor track structures are formed separately from one another and are also separated in a predetermined manner after folding and, by means of their connection point or connection points, provide respective contact areas, for example for an electrical coupling with a conductor track or a connection of an external sensor or an external detector unit.
  • the label has one or more insulation layers that cover the first and/or the second conductor track structure at least in sections, so that they are arranged between opposing conductor tracks when the label is folded.
  • insulation sections can be applied locally over predetermined conductor track sections or cover the entire surface of the first and/or the second label section or, if necessary, further label sections.
  • insulation sections are applied to the respective conductor track structures and cover associated conductor tracks up to a connection point and/or a connection point.
  • One or more further conductor tracks can then be applied to such insulation sections.
  • insulation sections can be provided specifically with regard to the folding of the label.
  • the insulation layers are each designed to to prevent unwanted electrical connection between conductor tracks, especially in the folded, operational state of the label.
  • the label can further comprise a third label section and a fourth label section with a respective conductor track structure, each of which has a plurality of conductor tracks.
  • the first to fourth conductor track structures are formed together on or on the carrier layer and can be arranged one above the other by means of folding along predetermined fold lines with respect to a stacking direction, so that a folded label can be formed in which the first to fourth conductor track structures are electrically coupled to one another and form respective conductor track layers of a multilayer conductor track arrangement.
  • the label can be designed in such a way that between two conductor track structures in the area of a respective fold line, a predetermined curved conductor track is formed on the carrier layer, which crosses the associated fold line several times and electrically connects the two conductor track structures to one another.
  • the label can have between two adjacent conductor track structures in the area of a respective fold line, a predetermined thick or wide conductor track on the carrier layer, which crosses the associated fold line and electrically connects the two conductor track structures to one another.
  • a conductive connection between the layers or label sections of the label can thus be implemented in various variants and protected from damage caused by folding.

  • an electrical connection can be established by a predetermined design of surfaces or pads in and around the fold line, which come to lie on top of one another when folded and above them the make electrical contact.
  • Such opposing connecting elements or connecting sections can have an electrically conductive adhesive on an upper side so that they contact each other after folding and are adhesively connected to each other.
  • one or more spacers are formed on the carrier layer between two conductor track structures in the area of a respective fold line, which spacers have a predetermined height and limit a maximum folding of the label.
  • the spacers can in particular counteract damage to the electrical connecting conductor track that crosses the fold line, so that, for example, the first label section cannot be folded 180° towards or away from the second label section.
  • the spacer(s) thus form a curvature limitation in the area of the associated fold line in order to prevent the connecting conductor tracks from bending too sharply at the fold edge.
  • Such spacers can be formed, for example, by dispensing or printing dots or lines of varnish or of curable adhesive on and/or at the fold line.
  • the first conductor track structure has a free end section with an associated connection point at each end that is opposite in terms of signal technology.
  • the second conductor track structure can have a free end section with an associated connection point at each end that is opposite in terms of signal technology.
  • the conductor track structures each comprise a plurality of interconnected conductor tracks that form, for example, a continuous conductor track strip with changes in direction. The respective ends of such a conductor track strip can be referred to as opposite ends in terms of signal technology, since a signal would run from one end to the other end.
  • the conductor track structures can also be applied as separate components to the material web of the label, so that they are separated in a predetermined manner even after folding and provide corresponding contact areas for electrical coupling via their respective connection points.
  • Such electrical coupling can, for example, when using the label, the process can be carried out by coupling one or more connection points with electronic components. This makes it easy and cost-effective to create a multi-layer conductor track arrangement, which, for example, sets up a coil or drill protection arrangement that can later be further processed and electrically contacted with connection components.
  • the conductor track structures and their respective connection point or connection points can be formed in relation to existing fold lines on a common label section or on different label sections.
  • the fold lines separate, for example, adjacent label sections from one another, so that, for example, the first conductor track structure with one or more connection points and the second conductor track structure with one or more connection points are formed in relation to an intermediate fold line on different label sections.

  • Such a film element preferably offers contact points on the top and/or bottom for the respective connection points 61-68.
  • External fastening - the third label section 13 with the four material strips and the eight connection points 61-68 located thereon is folded outwards and connected, for example, to a clamping contact strip (see Figures 36 and 37).
  • the third label section 13 accordingly has a stiffening due to the double material thickness of the material track of the label 1, 10, which can be useful for establishing an electrical connection at the connection points 61-68.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une étiquette (1, 10) pour former une structure de chemin conducteur multicouche, comprenant une première section d'étiquette (11) avec une première structure de chemin conducteur (51), qui a une pluralité de chemins conducteurs (5) qui sont électriquement couplés à un premier point de connexion (61) au moyen d'un autre chemin conducteur (5, 6). L'étiquette (1, 10) comprend en outre une seconde section d'étiquette (12) avec une seconde structure de chemin conducteur (52), qui a une pluralité de chemins conducteurs (5) qui sont électriquement couplés à un second point de connexion (62) au moyen d'un autre chemin conducteur (5, 6). Les deux structures de chemin conducteur (51, 52) sont formées sur une couche de support commune (2) et peuvent être disposées l'une sur l'autre par rapport à une direction d'empilement (R) par pliage le long d'une ligne de pliage (F, F1, F2, F3) de telle sorte qu'une étiquette pliée (1) peut être formée.
