Description

Die Erfindung beschreibt Verfahren zur Veränderung einer Kante eines tragbaren Datenträgers.The invention describes methods for changing an edge of a portable data carrier.

Aus dem Stand der Technik sind Verfahren zur Herstellung von tragbaren Datenträgern, wie z.B. Chipkarten, Kreditkarten, Bankkarten, Ausweisen, Versicherungskarten, Führerscheinen, etc., bekannt, welche eine farbige und/oder eine personalisierte Kante aufweisen, die sich zwischen den zwei Außenseiten des tragbaren Datenträgers befindet.The prior art discloses methods of making portable data carriers, such as portable media. Smart cards, credit cards, bank cards, identity cards, insurance cards, driver licenses, etc., are known, which have a colored and / or a personalized edge, which is located between the two outer sides of the portable data carrier.

Im Stand der Technik werden zur Herstellung eines tragbaren Datenträgers mit einer farbigen Kante farbige Folien verwendet, die im Inneren des Datenträgers angeordnet sind. Die farbigen Folien werden von beiden Seiten flächig mit einer weißen Farbe bedruckt, was einen aufwändigen Druckprozess und einen hohen Verbrauch an Farbe bedeutet. Ferner entstehen im Bereich des flächigen Drucks Verbundprobleme mit angrenzenden Folien, die nur über entsprechende, zusätzliche Lackierungen und/oder eine Verwendung von klebstoffbeschichteten Folien gelöst werden können.In the prior art, colored sheets are used for producing a portable data carrier with a colored edge, which are arranged in the interior of the data carrier. The colored foils are printed flat on both sides with a white color, which means a complex printing process and a high consumption of color. Furthermore, in the area of surface printing, composite problems arise with adjacent foils, which can only be achieved by means of corresponding, additional coatings and / or use of adhesive-coated foils.

US 2014 224 880 A1 offenbart eine Bedruckung der Kante. Dazu werden mehrere tragbare Datenträger gestapelt und anschließend die außen liegenden Kanten bedruckt. Der Nachteil ist, dass es sich hierbei um einen aufwändigen Prozess handelt, der nicht standardisiert ist. Darüber hinaus besteht die Gefahr, dass durch den Druckprozess der gestapelten Datenträger nicht nur die Kanten selbst bedruckt werden, sondern, dass Farbe zwischen die im Stapel aneinanderliegenden Datenträger läuft und somit auch die Außenseiten der Datenträger einfärbt. US 2014 224 880 A1 discloses a printing of the edge. For this purpose, several portable data carriers are stacked and then the outer edges are printed. The disadvantage is that this is a complex process that is not standardized. In addition, there is the danger that not only the edges themselves are printed by the printing process of the stacked data carriers, but that color runs between the media lying in the stack and thus also colors the outer sides of the data carriers.

Im Stand der Technik gibt es ferner zur Herstellung von tragbaren Datenträgern mit einer personalisierten Kante den Ansatz, dass tragbare Datenträger verwendet werden, die eine gerade gestanzte Kante aufweisen, wobei die Kante selbst eine ebene Oberfläche aufweist. Die Kante schließt mit den Außenseiten des tragbaren Datenträgers jeweils einen Winkel von ca. 90 Grad ein. Entsprechende Verfahren offenbaren die DE 10 2008 033 461 A1 und die EP 1970 211 A1 . Der Nachteil gemäß Stand der Technik ist, dass es sich um sehr aufwändige und nicht standardisierte Prozesse zum Druck und/oder zur Personalisierung der Kante handelt, für die es keine standardisierten Fertigungsvorrichtungen gibt.Further, in the prior art, for the production of portable data carriers with a personalized edge, there is the approach of using portable data carriers having a straight punched edge, the edge itself having a flat surface. The edge in each case encloses an angle of approximately 90 degrees with the outsides of the portable data carrier. Corresponding methods disclose the DE 10 2008 033 461 A1 and the EP 1970 211 A1 , The disadvantage of the prior art is that it involves very complex and non-standardized processes for printing and / or personalization of the edge, for which there are no standardized manufacturing devices.

Aus der WO2004/063977A2 ist es bekannt die Kanten eines kartenförmigen Datenträgers abzuschrägen.From the WO2004 / 063977A2 It is known to bevel the edges of a card-shaped data carrier.

Es ist deshalb Aufgabe der Erfindung eine Lösung für die oben genannten Probleme zur Verfügung zu stellen.It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a solution to the above-mentioned problems.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung wird durch den unabhängigen Anspruch gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausführungen sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen beschrieben. Zur Lösung der Aufgabe offenbart die Erfindung ein Verfahren zur Veränderung einer Geometrie einer Kante eines tragbaren Datenträgers, welches sich dadurch auszeichnet, dass die Geometrie der Kante verändert wird, um die Kante und mindestens eine Außenseite des Datenträgers von einer gemeinsamen Seite aus zu bearbeiten, ohne dass eine räumliche Lage des Datenträgers verändert wird. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass standardisierte Verfahren und Vorrichtungen für den Druck und die Personalisierung sowohl auf mindestens einer Außenseite als auch auf der Kante des tragbaren Datenträgers verwendet werden können. Der tragbare Datenträger kann erfindungsgemäß in einer räumlichen Lage so bearbeitet werden, dass sowohl eine Außenseite des Datenträgers als auch die um die Außenseite laufende Kante bearbeitet, z.B. bedruckt und/oder personalisiert und/oder markiert, werden kann, ohne dass der Datenträger in seiner räumlichen Lage verändert werden muss, z.B. verschwenkt oder gedreht werden muss, um die Kante zu bearbeiten. Dies hat den großen Vorteil, dass die Herstellung von tragbaren Datenträgern mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren schneller und kostengünstiger möglich ist, als mit den Verfahren des Stands der Technik.The object of the invention is achieved by the independent claim. Advantageous embodiments are described in the dependent claims. To achieve the object, the invention discloses a method for changing a geometry of an edge of a portable data carrier, which is characterized in that the geometry of the edge is changed to edit the edge and at least one outer side of the data carrier from a common side, without that a spatial position of the data carrier is changed. This has the advantage that standardized methods and devices for printing and personalization can be used on at least one outer side as well as on the edge of the portable data carrier. According to the invention, the portable data carrier can be processed in a spatial position such that both an outer side of the data carrier and the edge running around the outer side are processed, For example, printed and / or personalized and / or marked, can be, without the disk must be changed in its spatial position, eg pivoted or rotated to edit the edge. This has the great advantage that the production of portable data carriers with the method according to the invention is faster and more cost-effective than with the methods of the prior art.

Ein vorteilhaftes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist, dass die Kante bearbeitet wird, indem die Kante mittels eines Druckverfahrens bedruckt wird. Für das Druckverfahren kommt jedes geeignete Druckverfahren in Frage, wie z.B. ein Tampondruckverfahren. Somit kann beispielsweise die Kante bedruckt werden, um einen farbigen Rahmen um mindestens eine Außenseite des Datenträgers zu erzeugen, wobei die bedruckte Kante auch unter dem Begriff Colored Egde bekannt ist.An advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the edge is machined by printing the edge by means of a printing process. Any suitable printing process is suitable for the printing process, e.g. a pad printing process. Thus, for example, the edge can be printed to produce a colored frame around at least one outer side of the data carrier, wherein the printed edge is also known by the term Colored Egde.

Ein weiteres vorteilhaftes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist, dass die Kante bearbeitet wird, indem die Kante mittels eines Laserverfahrens markiert wird. Das Laserverfahren ist ein standardisiertes Verfahren z.B. zur Personalisierung, mittels dem erfindungsgemäß einfach die Kante bearbeitet, z.B. markiert oder personalisiert, werden kann, ohne dass z.B. die Kante in ihrer räumlichen Lage bewegt werden muss, damit ein Laser die Kante z.B. markieren kann. Ferner eignet sich das Laserverfahren besonders zur nachträglichen Bearbeitung der Kante, also nach Abschluß des Herstellungsverfahrens des tragbaren Datenträgers.Another advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the edge is machined by marking the edge by means of a laser process. The laser process is a standardized method, e.g. for personalization, by means of which, according to the invention, the edge is simply processed, e.g. marked or personalized, without, e.g. the edge must be moved in its spatial position in order for a laser to move the edge e.g. can mark. Furthermore, the laser method is particularly suitable for subsequent processing of the edge, so after completion of the manufacturing process of the portable data carrier.

Ein weiteres vorteilhaftes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist, dass die Geometrie der Kante so verändert wird, dass sie schräg und/oder rund ist in Bezug auf mindestens eine Außenseite des Datenträgers. Die schräge oder runde Geometrie der Kante sind nur zwei beispielhafte Möglichkeiten für die mögliche Geometrie der Kante, um erfindungsgemäß mindestens eine Außenseite und die Kante von einer Seite des tragbaren Datenträgers bearbeiten zu können, ohne dass die räumliche Lage des tragbaren Datenträgers verändert wird und ohne dass spezielle Vorrichtungen und Verfahren verwendet werden müssen, sondern dass herkömliche Vorrichtungen und Verfahren weiter benutzt werden können. Alternativ bietet sich z.B. eine Geometrie an, bei der im Verlauf der Kante um die Außenseiten des tragbaren Datenträgers sich z.B. eine runde in eine schräge Geometrie verändert. Desweiteren muss die Geometrie sich nicht über eine gesamte Höhe des tragbaren Datenträgers erstrecken, sondern kann sich auch nur über einen Teil der Höhe erstrecken. Die Kante selbst kann z.B. mittels eines Stanzverfahrens hergestellt werden. Alternativ kann die Kante auch mittels eines Laserverfahrens oder eines mechanischen Fräsverfahrens ausgebildet werden. Ferner kann die Kante während oder nach dem Herstellungsverfahren des tragbaren Datenträgers hergestellt werden.Another advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the geometry of the edge is changed so that it is oblique and / or round with respect to at least one outer side of the data carrier. The oblique or circular geometry of the edge are just two exemplary possibilities for the possible geometry of the edge in order to be able to work according to the invention at least one outside and the edge of one side of the portable data without the spatial position of the portable data carrier is changed and without the need for special devices and methods must be used, but that conventional devices and methods can be used further. Alternatively, for example, offers a geometry in which changes in the course of the edge around the outer sides of the portable data carrier, for example, a round into an oblique geometry. Furthermore, the geometry need not extend over an entire height of the portable data carrier, but may extend over only a portion of the height. The edge itself can be produced, for example, by means of a stamping process. Alternatively, the edge can also be formed by means of a laser method or a mechanical milling method. Further, the edge may be made during or after the manufacturing process of the portable data carrier.

Ein weiteres vorteilhaftes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist, dass ein Datenträger verwendet wird, der in seinem Inneren mindestens eine weiße Folie und als äußerste Folie auf beiden Außenseiten jeweils eine Overlayfolie aufweist. Die Verwendung dieses Aufbaus hat besonders vorteilhafte Eigenschaften insofern, als eine Kennzeichnung der Kante, z.B. durch ein Bedrucken und/oder ein Markieren ein hoher Kontrast erzeugt wird, wobei ein Betrachter die Kennzeichnung auf der Kante besonders gut und deutlich erkennt.A further advantageous embodiment of the invention is that a data carrier is used which has in its interior at least one white film and as the outermost film on both outer sides in each case an overlay film. The use of this construction has particularly advantageous characteristics in that a marking of the edge, e.g. a high contrast is produced by printing and / or marking, with a viewer recognizing the marking on the edge particularly well and clearly.

Im Folgenden werden vorteilhafte Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung beschrieben.

  • Figur 1 zeigt einen schematischen Aufbau eines kartenförmigen Datenträgers gemäß Stand der Technik im Querschnitt.
  • Figuren 2, 3, 4 und 5 zeigen jeweils einen Aufbau eines erfindungsgemäßen Datenträgers mit unterschiedlichen geometrischen Kantenformen im Querschnitt.
In the following, advantageous embodiments of the invention will be described.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic structure of a card-shaped data carrier according to the prior art in cross section.
  • Figures 2 . 3 . 4 and 5 each show a structure of a data carrier according to the invention with different geometric edge shapes in cross section.

Figur 1 zeigt einen kartenförmigen Datenträger 2 gemäß Stand der Technik. Der Datenträger 2 umfasst im Inneren des Datenträgers 2 z.B. zwei weisse Folien 4. Die weisse Folie 4 ist eine eingefärbte Folie, wie sie käuflich erwerblich ist. Auf den beiden äußeren Seiten des Verbunds, bestehend aus den beiden weissen Folien 4, ist jeweils eine Overlayfolie 6 und 8 als äußerste Folienschicht angeordnet. Um die umlaufende Kante z.B. zu bedrucken oder zu markieren, ist es notwendig, dass der tragbare Datenträger so bewegt wird, dass z.B. mittels eines Druck- oder Laserverfahrens die Kante bearbeitet werden kann. Dies ist sehr aufwändig und stellt einen Nachteil des Stands der Technik dar, welcher durch die vorliegende Erfindung überwunden wird. FIG. 1 shows a card-shaped data carrier 2 according to the prior art. The data carrier 2 comprises inside the data carrier 2, for example, two white films 4. The white film 4 is a colored film, as it is commercially available. On the two outer sides of the composite, consisting of the two white films 4, an overlay film 6 and 8 is arranged as the outermost layer of film. For example, to print or mark the peripheral edge, it is necessary that the portable data carrier be moved so that, for example, by means of a printing or laser process, the edge can be edited. This is very complicated and represents a disadvantage of the prior art, which is overcome by the present invention.

Die Figuren 2, 3, 4 und 5 offenbaren jeweils ein Ausführungsbeispiel eines erfindungsgemäßen kartenförmigen Datenträgers 12 mit unterschiedlicher geometrischer Form einer Kante 24. Der erfindungsgemäße Datenträger 12 weist in seinem Inneren zwei weisse Folien 14 auf. Auf einer Oberseite der oberen weissen Folie 14 ist eine erste Overlayfolie 16 angeordnet. Auf einer Unterseite der unteren weissen Folie 14 ist eine zweite Overlayfolie 18 angeordnet. Die geometrische Form der Kante 24 ist in einer gestrichelten Linie dargestellt. Die geometrische Form der Kante 24 kann während und/oder nach der Herstellung des tragbaren Datenträgers 12 ausgebildet werden. Dazu eignen sich beispielsweise mechanische Verfahren, z.B. ein Fräsverfahren, oder ein Laserverfahren oder jedes andere geeignete Verfahren, um die geometrische Form der Kante 24 zu erzeugen. Die Kante 24 kann z.B. bedruckt werden, um einen farbigen Rand des tragbaren Datenträgers zu erzeugen. Als weitere Alternative kann die Kante 24 z.B. mittels eines Lasers markiert oder personalisiert werden, um z.B. benutzerspezifische Daten auf die Kante 24 des tragbaren Datenträgers 12 zu schreiben. Der erfindungswesentliche Effekt ist, dass durch die geometrische Form der Kante 24 sowohl mindestens eine Außenseite 26, 28 als auch die Kante 24 selbst z.B. bedruckt und/oder mittels eines Lasers markiert werden können, ohne dass die räumliche Lage des tragbaren Datenträgers verändert werden muss. Ein weiterer Vorteil der Erfindung ist, dass die Kante 24 auch nach der Herstellung des tragbaren Datenträgers 12 hergestellt und bearbeitet, z.B. bedruckt und/oder mittels eines Lasers markiert oder personalisiert werden kann.The Figures 2 . 3 . 4 and 5 each disclose an embodiment of a card-shaped data carrier 12 according to the invention with a different geometric shape of an edge 24. The data carrier 12 according to the invention has two white foils 14 in its interior. On a top side of the upper white film 14, a first overlay film 16 is arranged. On a lower side of the lower white film 14, a second overlay film 18 is arranged. The geometric shape of the edge 24 is shown in a dashed line. The geometric shape of the edge 24 may be formed during and / or after the manufacture of the portable data carrier 12. Mechanical processes, for example a milling process, are suitable for this purpose. or a laser process or any other suitable method to produce the geometric shape of the edge 24. For example, the edge 24 may be printed to create a colored border of the portable data carrier. As a further alternative, the edge 24 can be marked or personalized, for example by means of a laser, for example, to write user-specific data on the edge 24 of the portable data carrier 12. The effect essential to the invention is that by the geometric shape of the edge 24 both at least one outer side 26, 28 and the edge 24 itself can for example be printed and / or marked by a laser, without the spatial position of the portable data carrier must be changed. A further advantage of the invention is that the edge 24 can also be produced and processed after the manufacture of the portable data carrier 12, for example printed and / or marked or personalized by means of a laser.

Ein weiterer Vorteil der Erfindung ist, dass die geometrische Form der Kante 24 des Datenträgers 12 einen optischen Eindruck beim Betrachten des Datenträgers 12 hinterläßt, dass wenn ein Betrachter eine Außenseite 26, 28 des Datenträgers 12 betrachtet, dann sieht der Betrachter gleichzeitig die Kante 24 und erhält damit zudem einen optischen Eindruck einer z.B. farbigen und/oder personalisierten Kante 24 des Datenträgers 12. Für die geometrische Form der Kante 24 gibt es unterschiedliche Möglichkeiten. Beispielhaft sind in den Figuren 2 und 3 eine einseitig abgeschrägte Form, in Figur 4 eine beidseitig abgeschrägte Form und in Figur 5 eine abgerundete Form angegeben. Figur 2 zeigt, wie sich die Kante 24 über die gesamte Höhe des tragbaren Datenträgers 12 und alle Folien des Datenträgers 12 erstreckt und Figur 3 zeigt, wie sich die Kante 24 nur über einen Teil der Folien bzw. der Höhe des Datenträgers 12 erstreckt. Es sind alle anderen geeigneten geometrischen Formen für die Kante 24 ebenfalls möglich. Ferner ist es möglich, dass die Kante 24 in ihrem Verlauf um die erste und zweite Außenseite 26 und 28 die geometrische Form behält oder verändert, dass z.B. eine runde in eine abgeschrägte Form übergeht.Another advantage of the invention is that the geometric shape of the edge 24 of the data carrier 12 leaves an optical impression when viewing the data carrier 12, that when a viewer views an outside 26, 28 of the data carrier 12, then the viewer sees the edge 24 and thus also receives an optical impression of a colored and / or personalized edge 24 of the data carrier 12, for example. There are different possibilities for the geometric shape of the edge 24. Exemplary are in the Figures 2 and 3 a one-sided beveled shape, in FIG. 4 a bevelled shape on both sides and in FIG. 5 given a rounded shape. FIG. 2 shows how the edge 24 extends over the entire height of the portable data carrier 12 and all the slides of the data carrier 12 and FIG. 3 shows how the edge 24 extends only over part of the films or the height of the data carrier 12. All other suitable geometric shapes for the edge 24 are also possible. Further, it is possible that the edge 24 in its course around the first and second outer side 26 and 28 the geometric shape retains or changes, for example, that goes from a round into a bevelled shape.
