Definitions
- the invention relates to an endless material for security elements with micro-optical moire magnification arrangements and to a method for producing such continuous material.
- Security elements for the purpose of security, which permit verification of the authenticity of the data carrier and at the same time serve as protection against unauthorized reproduction.
- the security elements can be embodied, for example, in the form of a security thread embedded in a banknote, a covering film for a banknote with a hole, an applied security strip or a self-supporting transfer element which is applied to a document of value after its manufacture.
- Security elements with optically variable elements which give the viewer a different image impression under different viewing angles, play a special role, since they can not be reproduced even with high-quality color copiers.
- the security elements can be equipped with security features in the form of diffraction-optically active microstructures or nanostructures, such as with conventional embossed holograms or other hologram-like diffraction structures, as described, for example, in the publications EP 0 33033 A1 or EP 0 064 067 A1.
- EP 0 238 043 A2 describes a security thread made of a transparent material, on the surface of which a grid of several parallel cylindrical lenses is embossed.
- the Thickness of the security thread is chosen so that it corresponds approximately to the focal length of the cylindrical lenses.
- the print image is designed taking into account the optical properties of the cylindrical lenses. Due to the focusing effect of the cylindrical lenses and the position of the printed image in the focal plane different subregions of the printed image are visible depending on the viewing angle. By appropriate design of the printed image so that information can be introduced, which are visible only at certain angles. Although the image can be moved around an axis parallel to the cylindrical lenses, the subject moves only approximately continuously from one location on the security thread to another location.
- Moire magnification arrangements are used as security features.
- the principal operation of such moiré magnification arrangements is described in the article "The Moire Magnifier", MC Hutley, R. Hunt, RF Stevens and P. Savander, Pure Appl. Opt. 3 (1994), pp. 133-142 Moire magnification thereafter refers to a phenomenon that occurs when viewing a raster of identical image objects through a lenticular of approximately the same pitch. As with any pair of similar rasters, this results in a moire pattern, in which case each of the moire fringes is in the form of an enlarged raster and / or rotated image of the repeated elements of the image grid appears.
- an endless security element film is usually first produced as roll material, with the use of conventional production methods always being used Breakage, especially gaps or misalignment in the appearance of the security elements occur. These fractures are due to the fact that the precursors for the stamping tools used in the manufacture are generally manufactured as flat sheets which are mounted on a printing or embossing cylinder. At the seams, the mutually adjacent image patterns usually do not match and lead after printing or embossing in the appearance of the finished security elements to motive disorders of the type mentioned.
- the object of the invention is to avoid the disadvantages of the prior art and in particular to provide a method for producing security elements with micro-optical moiré magnification arrangements with trouble-free motif images, as well as a corresponding continuous material.

- FIG. 8 shows a motif grid in the form of a one-dimensional translation grid with a translation vector u and the predetermined longitudinal repeat q
- Fig. 9 is a motif grid as shown in Fig. 8 with marked longitudinal repeat q and Querrapport b.
- Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of a banknote 10, which is provided with two security elements 12 and 16 according to embodiments of the invention.
- the first security element represents a security thread 12 that emerges at certain window areas 14 on the surface of the banknote 10, while it is embedded in the intervening areas inside the banknote 10.
- the second security element is formed by a glued transfer element 16 of any shape.
- the security element 16 can also be designed in the form of a cover film, which is arranged over a window area or a through opening of the banknote.
- Both the security thread 12 and the transfer element 16 may include a moire magnification arrangement according to an embodiment of the invention.
- the mode of operation and the production method according to the invention for such arrangements will be described in more detail below with reference to the security thread 12.
- Fig. 2 shows a schematic diagram of the layer structure of the security thread 12 in cross section, wherein only the parts of the layer structure required for the explanation of the functional principle are shown.
- the security thread 12 contains a carrier 20 in the form of a transparent plastic film, in the Example of an approximately 20 micron thick polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film.
- PET polyethylene terephthalate
- the upper side of the carrier film 20 is provided with a grid-like arrangement of microlenses 22 which form on the surface of the carrier film a two-dimensional Bravais grid with a preselected symmetry.
- the Bravais lattice may, for example, have a hexagonal lattice symmetry, but because of the higher security against forgery, preferred are lower symmetries and thus more general shapes, in particular the symmetry of a parallelogram lattice.
- the spacing of adjacent microlenses 22 is preferably chosen as small as possible in order to ensure the highest possible area coverage and thus a high-contrast representation.
- the spherically or aspherically configured microlenses 22 preferably have a diameter between 5 .mu.m and 50 .mu.m and in particular a diameter between merely 10 .mu.m and 35 .mu.m and are therefore not visible to the naked eye. It is understood that in other designs, larger or smaller dimensions come into question.
- the moire magnifier structures for moire magnifier structures may have a diameter of between 50 ⁇ m and 5 mm, while moiré magnifier structures that can only be deciphered with a magnifying glass or a microscope also have a size of less than 5 ⁇ m can be used.
- a motif layer 26 is arranged, which contains a likewise grid-like arrangement of identical micromotif elements 28.
- the arrangement of the micromotif elements 28 forms a two-dimensional Bravais lattice with a preselected symmetry, again assuming a parallelogram lattice for illustration.
- the Bravais lattice differs from the microlenses 22 in FIG.
- the elements 28 in its symmetry and / or in the size of its lattice parameters are slightly offset from the Bravais lattice of the microlenses 22 in order to produce the desired moire magnification effect.
- the grating period and the diameter of the micromotif elements 28 are of the same order of magnitude as those of the microlenses 22, ie preferably in the range of 5 .mu.m to 50 .mu.m and in particular in the range of 10 .mu.m to 35 .mu.m, so that the micromotif elements 28 themselves are visible to the naked eye are not recognizable.
- the micromotiv elements are correspondingly larger or smaller.
- the optical thickness of the carrier film 20 and the focal length of the microlenses 22 are coordinated so that the micromotif elements 28 are located approximately at the distance of the lens focal length.
- the carrier foil 20 thus forms an optical spacer layer which ensures a desired constant spacing of the microlenses 22 and the micromotif elements 28.
- the observer sees a slightly different subarea of the micromotif elements 28 when viewed from above through the microlenses 22, so that the large number of microlenses 22 as a whole produces an enlarged image of the micromotif elements 28.
- the resulting moire magnification depends on the relative difference of the lattice parameters of the Bravais lattice used. If, for example, the grating periods of two hexagonal grids differ by 1%, the result is a 100-fold moire magnification.
- an endless security-element film is usually first produced as roll material, fractures 30 always appearing in the appearance 32 in known production processes, as illustrated in FIG. 3 (a). These breakages in appearance are due to the fact that the precursors for the embossing tools used in the manufacture are generally made as flat plates which are mounted on a printing or embossing cylinder 34, as shown schematically in Fig. 3 (b). At the seams 36, the adjacent motif grids 38, 38 'and / or the associated lenticular grid generally do not coincide and, after printing or embossing, lead to motif disturbances in the form of gaps or an offset in the appearance of the finished security elements.
- the micromotif elements 28 and the microlenses 22 are each in the form of a raster, wherein in the context of this description raster is understood to mean a two-dimensional periodic or at least locally periodic arrangement of the lenses or the motif elements.
- a periodic raster can always be described by a Bravais lattice with constant lattice parameters.
- the period parameters can change from place to place, but only slowly in relation to the periodicity length, so that the micro-raster can always be described locally with sufficient accuracy by means of Bravais gratings with constant grid parameters.
- a periodic arrangement of the microelements is therefore always assumed below.
- FIGS. 4 and 5 schematically show a moire magnification arrangement 50, not drawn to scale, having a motif plane 52 in which a motif grid 40 shown in greater detail in FIG. 4 is arranged and with a lens plane 54 in which the microlens grid is located.
- the moire magnification arrangement 50 generates a moire image plane 56 which describes the magnified image perceived by the viewer 58.
- the motif grid 40 includes a plurality of micromotif elements 42 in the form of the letter "F" arranged at the lattice sites of a low-symmetry Bravais lattice 44.
- the unit cell of the parallelogram grating shown in FIG. 4 can be represented by vectors w 1 and w 2 (with the components i 1 , w 21 and m 12 , w 22, respectively).
- Spelling the unit cell can also be given in matrix form by a motif grid matrix Ü:
- R W - (W - Üy ⁇ - (F - F 0 ) can be determined from the pixels of the motif plane 52.
- the two others can be calculated from two of the four matrices ⁇ , W, f, ⁇ .
- the transformation matrix A also describes the movement of a moire image during the movement of the moire-forming arrangement 50, which results from the displacement of the motif plane 52 against the lens plane 54.
- the columns of the transformation matrix A can be interpreted as vectors, where
- the vector O 1 indicates the direction in which the moire image moves when the motif and lenticular arrangement is tilted sideways, and that the vector 2 2 indicates in which direction the moiré moves when you tilt the arrangement of motif and lenticular grid backwards.
- the images given in particular by (M1) to (M4) are now supplemented by further linear transformations which describe a distortion of the Bravais grid of the motif grid or of the lens grid, and which are selected so that the motif grid and / or the Lenticular grid periodically repeated in a predetermined repeat.
- the procedure according to the invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to a few concrete examples.
- a motif image 70 having a motif grid in the form of a two-dimensional Bravais grid with the unit cell side vectors w, and ü 2 is given and the circumference q of the printing or embossing cylinder provided for generating the motif grid.
- the procedure is as follows: All grid points of the given motif grid are covered by ⁇ m • S 1 + n • ü 2 ⁇ with integers m and n.
- the motif image 70 can be applied without interruption to a cylinder with the circumference q if and only if there are integers M and N for which: wherein the circumferential direction is chosen in the following without restriction of the generality as y-direction in a Cartesian coordinate system.
- the Bravais lattice of the motif grid 70 is slightly distorted by a linear transformation so that the condition (1) for the distorted Bravais lattice is satisfied.
- the distorted grid then repeats periodically with a longitudinal direction repeat q and therefore fits without gaps and without offset on an associated printing or embossing cylinder with circumference q.
- the grid point P closest to the end point Q can be selected for this purpose.
- the concrete selection of the grid point P can be effected, for example, by the coordinates of all grid points in the computer be determined a surface which is slightly larger than a roll of the cylinder (at least some grid cells larger in size and in width) and that from these grid points then the one with the smallest distance to Q is determined.
- the effect of lattice distortion can be estimated from the typical dimensions of the embossing cylinders and grid cells.
- the grid cell dimensions are in the order of magnitude of 20 .mu.m, and the circumference of a suitable embossing cylinder is approximately
- Example 2 proceeds from a given motif image from a motif grid in the form of a two-dimensional Bravais grid with the unit cell side vectors, and U 2 and the circumference q of the printing cylinder provided for generating the motif grid.
- Point P maps to the end point Q.
- the untransformed grid and the transformed grid differ as little as possible when the vectors b and a differ as little as possible or even equal. For illustration, some special cases are picked out:
- a motif image 80 having a motif grid in the form of a two-dimensional Bravais grid with the unit cell side vectors M 1 and U 2 and the circumference q of the motif grid is provided Prescribed printing or embossing cylinder.
- the embossed endless material to be cut in a subsequent process step in strips of width b, the moire pattern on all strips should be the same side.
- the distorted Bravais grid of the motif image 80 is thus repeated periodically in the y direction with the longitudinal direction repeat q and in the x direction periodically with the transverse direction repeat b in this example.
- the motive image transformed via the relationships (2c) and (3) and the motive image transformed via the relations (2c) and (4) are structurally repeated in the x-direction with period b and in the y-direction with period q.
- the motif image therefore fits seamlessly and without offset on the given printing or embossing cylinder and can be cut after production in identical strips of width b.
- Example 4 describes a preferred approach in making an entire moire magnification arrangement:
- an enlargement and movement behavior is predefined for the moire pattern, which, as explained above, can be expressed by a motion matrix A. From the lenticular grid W and the motion matrix ⁇ . With the aid of the relation (M2) the motive grid U can be determined:
- the resulting moire pattern appears in the image plane with a grid array f passing through
- a motif image which is arranged in a motif grid grid calculated according to relationship (5), will generally not fit without interruption on an independently predetermined cylinder diameter, so that one with In the rhythm of the circumference of the cylinder, this film-shaped foil material shows disturbances in the motif image and thus also in the moire image.
- the motif grid grating Ü is therefore, as described in Example 1 or 2, by a transformed motif grid grid
- Example 5 a calculation example for moire-forming gratings is given for the procedures explained in Examples 1 to 4. The simple For better illustration, a hexagonal lattice symmetry is assumed for the rasters.
- the lenticular grid is a hexagonal lattice with a side length of 20 ⁇ m.
- the motif grid should have the same side length, but be rotated by an angle of 0.573 ° relative to the lenticular grid.
- the moire pattern should have an approximately 100-fold magnification and approximately orthoparallactic motion in the image plane.
- the lenticular grid W is chosen so that it already fits on a cylinder with 200 mm circumference:
- the original and the transformed motion matrix are through given.
- the moiré magnification of the original motif grid is 100.0 times as designed, the magnification with the transformed motif grid is 100.4 times horizontally and 100.0 times vertically, and thus has only changed insignificantly.
- the transformed motif grid grid results in a trouble-free motif image on a printing or embossing cylinder with a circumference of 200 mm, while the original motif grid grid leads to motif disturbances of the type shown in FIG. 3 (a).
- Example 6 is based on Example 5, in addition to the endless material produced in this example is cut into identical strips with a width of 40 mm.
- the undistorted motif grid is calculated from the lenticular grid and the desired magnification and motion behavior:
- moiré magnifiers can be realized not only with two-dimensional gratings but also with linear translation structures, for example with cylindrical lenses as microfocusing elements and with motifs that are arbitrarily extended in one direction as micromotif elements. Even with such linear translation structures, the Moire Magnifier data can be advantageously adapted to a predetermined repeat, as now explained with reference to the motif images 90 and 95 of Figures 8 and 9.
- a linear translation structure can be described by a translation vector u, that is to say by a displacement d and a displacement direction ⁇ , as shown in FIG. 8 (see also formula (NI) on page 69 of the abovementioned international application PCT / EP2006 / 012374).
- the parallel lines 92 in FIG. 8 schematically represent a motif arranged repeatedly displaced with the translation vector M.
- a vector of length q is drawn with the end point Q, which stands for the given longitudinal repeat.
- this condition can be met in the following manner by a slight change of the quantities d, ⁇ or q.
- a transformation matrix V can be found with the aid of which the motif structure and the movement behavior can be adapted to the repeat with a minimum change.
- a point P is located on the translation structure near the point Q.
- an adaptation to a transverse repeat can also take place in the case of a linear translation structure in addition to adaptation to the longitudinal repeat, as explained with reference to the motif image 95 of FIG.
- the longitudinal repeat is represented in FIG. 9 by a vector (0, q) with end point Q, the transverse repeat by a vector (b, 0) with end point B. Furthermore, points P and A are selected with the coordinates (p x , p y ) and (a X / a y ) in the translation structure, which are close to Q and B, respectively.
- this information provides a transformation matrix V, with the help of which the motif structure and the movement behavior can be adapted with minimal change to both repetitions, namely with equation (2c):
- the printing or embossing cylinders themselves have seams
- the design of moire magnification arrangements is inventively designed so that it fits together before and after a seam.
- plates can be produced with latticed, free-standing, generally cylindrical resist structures, which are referred to as lacquer points. These paint spots are produced in a lattice-like arrangement which results for the lenticular grid using the above-described relationships (1) to (8).
- Such plates can be produced for example by means of classical photolithography, by means of lithographic direct-write methods, such as laser writing or e-beam lithography, or by suitable combinations of both approaches.
- the plate with the lacquer points is then heated, so that the resist structures flow away and generally form latticed, arranged small hills, preferably small spherical caps. Shaped in transparent materials These hill lens properties, lens diameter, lens curvature, focal length, etc. on the geometric structure of the paint dots, especially their diameter and the thickness of the paint layer, can be determined.
- Another possibility is the direct structuring of the plates with latticed, free-standing hills, for example by means of laser ablation.
- plastic, ceramic or metal surfaces are processed with high-energy laser radiation, for example with excimer laser radiation.
- a nickel layer for example 0.05 to 0.2 mm thick, is deposited and this is lifted off the plate.
- This nickel foil is suitable as an embossing stamp for embossing a lenticular grid.
- the nickel foil is precisely cut to size and welded with the embossing recesses outwards to form a cylindrical tube, the sleeve.
- the sleeve can be attached to an embossing cylinder. Since in the exposure control for the emboss pattern, the cylinder circumference including the sleeve was taken into account by using the relationships (1) to (8) according to the invention, the grating period also fits in the area of the weld seam.
- the calculated lens grid is then embossed into an embossable lacquer layer, for example a thermoplastic lacquer or UV lacquer, on the front side of a foil.
- embossable lacquer layer for example a thermoplastic lacquer or UV lacquer
- the production takes place analogously to the lenticular cylinder, whereby plates are produced with lattice-shaped, free-standing, freely designed motifs.
- lens raster, motif raster and cylinder circumference are in the relationships given by equations (1) to (8), so that the grating period also fits in the area of the weld seam.

- the motif grid can be colored, as explained in the co-pending German patent application 10 2006 029 852.7, the disclosure of which is incorporated in the present application in this respect.
- the further processing of the double-sided with lenticular grid and motif grid embossed film can be done in different ways.
- the motif grid can be metallized over the entire area, or the motif grid can be obliquely vapor-deposited, and then a two-dimensional application of a color layer to the partially metallized areas can take place, or the embossed motif grid can be applied by full-surface application of Color layers and subsequent wiping or by using the above-mentioned dyeing technique of German Patent Application 10 2006 029 852.7 be colored.
- Seamless cylinders for use in stamping or printing machines as such are state of the art and known for example from the documents WO 2005/036216 A2 or DE 10126264 Al. However, there is no teaching as to how such cylinders are designed to meet the special requirements of Moire magnification arrangements.
- a lens grid is mounted on one side of a film and a matching motif grid on the other side of the film.
- embossing or impression cylinders are imaged, for example, according to the methods described in the prior art, wherein the design is carried out according to the above-described inventive calculation using the relationships (1) to (8).
