Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a security paper, as well as a microlens thread for introduction into a paper web with such a method.
  • Security documents such as banknotes, stocks, bonds, certificates, vouchers, checks, high-quality admission tickets, but also other forgery-prone papers, such as passports or other identity documents, are often provided with security elements for security, which allow a verification of the authenticity of the value document and at the same time serve as protection against unauthorized reproduction.
  • the security elements can be designed, for example, in the form of a security thread completely or partially embedded in a banknote.
  • microlens security threads have become established on the banknote market. These microlens filaments differ significantly from metallized filaments and offer attractive optical properties.
  • the microlens threads are equipped with microlenses whose focusing effect is produced by refraction of light on an approximately spherically curved surface.
  • microstructures which are arranged so that the interaction of the microlenses and the microstructures allows the viewer to display an enlarged image with special motion effects.
  • the lens side of the thread is not provided with adhesive prior to embedding in a paper web, as with conventional security threads, such as hologram threads the case is.
  • conventional security threads such as hologram threads the case is.
  • dispensing with adhesive on the top of the thread (lens side) often results in reduced durability of the produced banknotes and in part even wrinkling on the banknotes back.
  • the present invention seeks to avoid the disadvantages of the prior art and in particular to provide a method for producing a security paper, which allows a secure embedding of a microlens thread in the paper and at the same time in the window areas in which the microlens thread on the Surface of the paper, ensuring an attractive visual appearance of the microlens thread.

  • the microlens thread may include a motif with a motif jump.
  • a motif with a motif jump As in the publication WO 2008/145333 A2 described in more detail, in the production of a microlens thread usually first an endless security element film is produced as a roll material, which always occur when using conventional manufacturing methods break points, especially gaps or an offset in the appearance of the security elements. These fractures are due to the fact that the precursors for the embossing tools used in the production in general are produced as flat plates, 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 a scene jump of the type mentioned.
  • a microlens thread containing a motif with a motif jump Registered registered in the paper web, so that the motif jump comes to rest in one of the web areas of the paper web. The subject jump then remains hidden from the viewer.
  • subject jumps occur several times within an embossing cylinder. For example, if the patterns are composed by recombination of small segments, stitches with motif jumps result. In general, motive jumps occur due to the process both in the grid of the microstructures and in the grid of the microlenses. Usually, attempts are made to bring the two seams in the production in coverage, so that arises for the viewer the impression of only one jump in the subject.
  • the microlens thread is printed directly before entering the paper web targeted in the areas of its upper side with an adhesive layer, which come to lie in the sheet formation below land areas of the paper web.
  • the microlens thread can contain a motif with a motif jump and the microlens thread can be registered, so that the motif jump comes to rest in one of the web areas of the paper web and is therefore hidden from the viewer.
  • the microlens thread is provided in the areas of its upper side with openings, which come to rest below the land areas of the paper web during sheet formation, immediately before entering the paper web.
  • the openings are advantageously produced by punching or laser cutting. If the openings are only produced immediately before the microlens thread enters the paper web, they are preferably produced by laser cutting.
  • the paper web is expediently formed with the predetermined web pattern in a paper machine and the endless microlens thread runs into the paper machine.
  • a microlens thread is provided whose upper side has partial areas with microlenses and microlens-free partial areas, the microlens-free partial areas being smaller than the width of the bridge areas of the Web pattern are in the paper web, and wherein the microlens-free portions are coated prior to introduction into the paper web with adhesive.

  • microlens sections and the microlens-free sections may usually be in the form of rectangles. However, it would also be possible for the partial areas with microlenses and the microlens-free partial areas to be present in the form of diagonals. It can be made especially for wider threads diagonal paper webs.

  • a motif layer 26 is arranged which contains a likewise grid-shaped arrangement of micromotif elements 28.
  • the arrangement of the micromotif elements 28 also forms a lattice with a preselected symmetry, wherein the matching of the lattice of the microlenses 22 and the arrangement of the micromotif elements 28 produces a desired magnification effect, characteristic movement effects and / or tilting effects.
  • the micromotif elements are invisible to the naked eye.
  • the microstructures may also consist of image fragments which are not arranged repetitively.
  • the microlens thread 12 typically includes other layers 24, such as protective, masking or other functional layers, which are not essential to the present invention and therefore will not be described further.
  • the motif perceived by the viewer usually has a motif jump, as in the publication WO 2008/145333 A2 described in more detail.

  • the microlens thread 12 can be aligned in this manner with its coated and uncoated areas 44, 46 in register on the window and web areas 14,16.
  • the method is such that the thread carries a register mark, which is recognized particularly well by a detection system.
  • the thread embedding is then controlled by means of the tension on the thread so that the register mark of the thread is in fixed local reference to the register mark of the paper, usually a watermark.

In some embodiments, it is also provided that the coated regions 46 are smaller, for example by not more than 10% or not more than 50% smaller than the land areas 16.
  • the glue-coated part compared to the paper webs thread length is also very much related to the register tolerance of registered thread embedding. For example, if the registration allowance is ⁇ 1 mm registered thread insertion, the glue-free areas of the thread should be 2 mm shorter than the paper webs. Even if only a part of the microlens thread 12 is glued to the web areas 16, a significantly improved embedding results compared with the prior art.
  • a further advantage of the registered introduction of the microlens thread 12 is that any motive jumps 34 in the motif image can be hidden under a paper web 16 of the security paper 50, as in FIG Fig. 3 shown. Thereby, the uniformity of the visual appearance of the microlens thread 12 is further increased.
