Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a on a Pad applied image element, in particular a Security element for labeling of packaging, goods and Cash.
  • DOVDs diffractive optically variable devices
  • Security printing Among the most commonly used (pressure) procedures for Evidence of originality belongs to the so-called Security printing. This can, for example, as gravure, Intaglio printing (results in a noticeably elevated pressure), Screen printing, flexo printing, offset printing, letterpress printing or Raster gravure (by the special writing edge effect especially hard to fake).
  • Security printing can also be open or concealed Security features included, such as Special colors, guilloches (difficult to make and hardly copyable) or security grid.
  • thermal inks can be used which change their color tone under the influence of temperature, or Reagent colors that react to chemicals with discoloration, or water-soluble paints when in contact with water "bleed” or copy protection colors that are not true to color copiable or invisible fluorescent colors, which are only visible under UV light or black colors which become invisible in IR light, allowing for some special colors call.
  • the mentioned DOVDs are special ones Security elements, which in turn can be divided into analogue holograms, ie produced by photography Holograms, and digital, computer-generated holograms, like for example Trustseal, Kinegram, Megapix, Heliogram, 2D / 3D Hologram, Digital Image Each of these DOVDs has one different security level.
  • the DOVDs are called holographic labels, laminates or hot stamping foils manufactured and applied to the desired products.
  • DOVDs are also very bad too recognize and must under a certain light to be viewed as.
  • DOVDs in the form of films can in principle Applied to many products or product packaging become. However, they are then unrelated to the Product, as it is basically just a sticker is. You could therefore also by unauthorized persons simply glued or imprinted or as Printing material to be used.
  • the content of Security prints and DOVDs usually go unnoticed. Detailed descriptions about the correct verification, eg on the same packaging where the DOVD is located weakening the confidence in the brand and therefore avoided. Space reasons often speak against such Description.
  • the DE 39 32 505 A1 discloses a combination of a DOVD and a printed image.
  • the aim of the invention is therefore to provide a picture element in particular to create a security element that this Disadvantages prevented and easier for the end user recognizable and can be assessed as genuine.
  • the characterizing feature of claim 3 describes a preferred embodiment of the invention.
  • the characterizing features of claim 4 describe a process according to the invention for the preparation a picture element according to the invention.
  • Fig. 2 shows a more detailed view of the picture element 2.
  • This includes a motif 3, which on the one hand from a printed image 4 produced by known printing techniques and on the other hand from a DOVD 5.
  • a motif 3 which on the one hand from a printed image 4 produced by known printing techniques and on the other hand from a DOVD 5.
  • DOVD 5 As the Division is not important to the invention. What is important, however, is that lines and surfaces are inside continue the DOVDs in adjacent printed image.
  • FIG. 3 shows a picture element according to the invention with another Motif, namely a ball with the center outward leading, curved lines.
  • the hatched areas of the Balls are DOVD, whereas the others Areas are designed as normal pressure. The important thing here is turn, that the lines and surfaces inside the DOVDs continue in adjacent printing.
  • the picture element according to the invention can be applied to three different types are produced. On the one hand, first the printed image 4 are applied to the substrate. About the Print image is then applied to the DOVD 5. Another Possibility would be to install the DOVD 5 first and then, over and on the DOVD to apply the print image 4. The third Possibility would be to print 4 and DOVD 5 side by side apply, that is, the area covered by the DOVD 5 is taken when applying the printed image. 4 released.
  • Hot foil stamping can be used, it can be a micro-embossing made of metallic foil or the DOVDs can as Slide under the printed image.
  • the DOVDs can be metallic, be colored or transparent. It is important in the printing and Embossing process, that registration of the printing elements is guaranteed to each other.
