Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for forming an image including a light diffraction structure and a recorded matter.
- a method of forming an image including print information and a light diffraction structure is widely known as a security measure against information tampering.
- the image forming method for example, there is a method in which predetermined information is printed on a transfer object first, and a layer provided with the light diffraction structure of the light diffraction structure transfer sheet is transferred to the transfer object on the information. It is known (for example, Patent Document 1).
- Patent Document 1 JP-A-8-118857
- the above-described method is mainly aimed at preventing information forgery by focusing on the difficulty of manufacturing and restoring the optical diffraction structure. It is difficult to say that simply transferring the light diffraction structure onto the information that should prevent the security is not perfect for security. Further, in the above-described method, when information previously printed on a transfer target is printed by a thermal transfer method, there is a problem that the light diffraction structure does not adhere to the printed portion and is difficult to transfer.
- the present invention provides an image forming method that realizes higher security for preventing forgery or falsification of information by using an optical diffraction structure, and a method of forming a part previously formed by a thermal transfer method.
- an object of the present invention is to provide an image forming method and the like in which a light diffraction structure can be provided on the portion.
- the recorded image is transferred by transferring a layer including a light diffraction structure provided on a light diffraction structure transfer sheet onto a transfer target on which information is recorded.
- the "predetermined regularity" is defined as a case where the information included in the same recorded material, that is, the information recorded and the information formed by the optical diffraction structure have a specific relationship directly. Not only that, but also the regularity that can derive the information and force formed by each recorded information and each optical diffraction structure among a plurality of recorded materials.
- the method of transferring the light diffraction structure may be any method, such as thermal transfer or laser light, as long as the method can transfer the information having the predetermined rule.
- the light diffraction structure includes a hologram which is an interference fringe forming a predetermined shape and a diffraction grating which is a uniform uneven pattern.
- the “light diffraction structure” includes a so-called diffraction grating that is a repetition of a predetermined concavo-convex pattern, and a hologram composed of interference fringes expressing a predetermined shape.
- the first recorded material of the present invention is obtained by transferring a layer including a light diffraction structure provided on a light diffraction structure transfer sheet onto a transfer-receiving body on which information is recorded.
- the light diffraction structure transferred to the recorded matter is associated with the recorded information so as to have a predetermined regularity, so that a higher security is provided as described above. be able to.
- the recorded information and the information formed by the transferred light diffraction structure may be synchronized.
- Synchronized information is information that is visually, audibly or conceptually consistent with the recorded information.
- Conceptual agreement means a relationship where the same thing can be associated, for example, Japanese and its English translation.
- the recorded information may be printed with ink but not visible with visible light.
- the recorded information is not visually recognized under visible light, and can be recognized only by light other than visible light such as ultraviolet light, so that higher security can be realized.
- a second image forming method is directed to a light diffraction structure for transferring a light diffraction structure layer including a light diffraction structure from a light diffraction structure transfer sheet to a transfer object while avoiding a specific region of the transfer object.
- a transfer step and an ink transfer that transfers the ink layer to the specific area from an ink transfer sheet in which an ink layer including an invisible ink portion made of ink is not visible under visible light and is stacked on a base sheet.
- the ink layer having an invisible ink portion composed of ink that cannot be viewed under visible light since an image is formed by the ink layer having an invisible ink portion composed of ink that cannot be viewed under visible light, information that cannot be viewed under visible light can be added. it can. Furthermore, since the light diffraction structure layer is not transferred to the specific area where the ink layer is transferred, the ink layer can be provided on the light diffraction structure layer to make the edges of the ink layer that are conspicuous can be made inconspicuous. If the entire layer is almost transparent, the presence of the ink layer can be made invisible at a glance.
- the transfer in the ink transfer step includes a case where only the ink layer is transferred and a case where another layer is transferred together with the ink layer.
- the transfer in the light diffraction structure transfer step includes a case where only the light diffraction structure layer is transferred. And the case where another layer is transferred together with the light diffraction structure layer.
- the term "ink that is not visible under visible light” refers to a so-called stealth ink that becomes visible by emitting fluorescence or coloring under light other than visible light.
- the “invisible ink portion” may be the entire ink layer, or may be included in the ink layer in a predetermined shape. In the case of the entire invisible link portion ink layer, for example, the entire specific region is fluorescent under light other than visible light. [0015] When the invisible ink portion is formed in a predetermined shape, the shape becomes visible in a specific area under light other than visible light. The order of the light diffraction structure transfer step and the ink transfer step does not matter.
- the “light diffraction structure” includes a so-called diffraction grating, which is a repetition of a certain concavo-convex pattern, and a so-called hologram, which is composed of interference fringes expressing a predetermined shape.
- the light diffraction structure layer may be transferred in the light diffraction structure transfer step.
- the transfer layer including the ink layer is laminated on the substrate sheet, and the ink transfer step is performed such that a layer containing a release agent remains on the surface of the transfer layer in the ink transfer step.
- the transfer layer may be transferred to the transfer object.
- the surface of the transfer layer contains the release agent, the light diffraction structure layer does not adhere to the surface. Therefore, the light diffraction structure layer can be easily transferred while avoiding the area where the transfer layer has already been transferred.
- the ink layer may be transferred in the ink transfer step.
- the ink layer may be transferred so as to fill a specific area where the light diffraction structure has not been transferred.
- the specific region may have a linear shape.
- the specific region since the specific region has a narrow width and has a shape like a gap, if the ink layer is transparent under visible light, it becomes more difficult to confirm its existence.
- the specific area is formed in the shape of a character, character information can be added in addition to the presence of stealth ink, so that higher security can be provided.
- the ink layer including an invisible ink portion made of ink, which is invisible under visible light is provided in a specific region, and the light diffraction structure layer including a light diffraction structure is formed as described above. Provided to avoid the area! / It may be embodied as a second recorded matter having an image.
- the heat transfer sheet in which a transfer layer including a release layer containing no release agent is laminated on a base material sheet is opposed to a transfer object, Thermally transferring the layer to the object to be transferred so that the release layer remains on the surface thereof; and a light diffraction structure provided on a light diffraction structure transfer sheet on the release layer remaining on the surface of the transfer layer. Transferring the light diffraction structure layer containing Resolve.
- the inventor has paid attention to the fact that the light diffraction structure does not adhere to the portion printed by thermal transfer because the surface of the portion contains a release agent.
- the thermal transfer sheet is separated from the base sheet side and the transfer layer by the release layer, and the transfer layer has a release layer substantially free of a release agent such as wax, silicone, and a surfactant. Since heat transfer is performed to the transfer object so as to remain on the surface, the outermost surface of the transfer layer on the transfer object is a release layer containing no release agent. Therefore, the light diffractive structure layer can be bonded to this release layer, and the light diffractive structure layer can be further transferred onto the transfer layer thermally transferred onto the transfer object.
- “Release layer” is a general term for a layer included in a transfer layer and located at a position where the transfer layer is separated from the base sheet side during thermal transfer. Therefore, the layer may have not only the separating function but also other functions.
- the phrase “so that the release layer remains” refers to the case where the release layer of the thermal transfer sheet is included in the transfer layer as it is and is separated from the substrate sheet side and transferred to the object to be transferred. This includes the case where the release layer is separated from the base material sheet in the middle of the release layer while remaining on the material sheet side.
- the “transfer layer” includes a case where only a release layer is used and a case where another layer is laminated in addition to the release layer.
- the “light diffraction structure” includes a diffraction grating that is simply a repetition of a concavo-convex pattern, and a so-called hologram in which interference fringes representing a predetermined shape are formed.
- an ink layer containing ink is further laminated on the release layer, and in the thermal transfer step, the transfer layer forms a specific shape on the transfer object.
- Thermal transfer may be performed as follows. Thereby, a specific shape formed by the transfer layer on the transfer object can have a special meaning, and the shape can be used as information. In particular, if the ink is visible under visible light, the user can visually recognize the specific shape. Since the shape is formed by a thermal transfer method, the shape can be easily changed as needed.
- the “specific shape” includes a symbol, a character, a pattern, and the like as long as the shape is visible.
- the light diffraction structure may be transferred to a part of the transfer layer transferred on the transfer object. This does not cover the entire transfer layer transferred onto the transfer target, so even if the transfer layer is not transparent, the transferred transfer layer Can be visually recognized.

Accordingly, it is possible to provide a method of forming an image having a light diffraction structure that provides a high level of security that cannot be imitated at first glance under visible light.

In this case, it is necessary to provide a layer having a light-to-heat conversion function on each thermal transfer sheet. In this embodiment, all the transfer is performed by the thermal transfer method.
- the images 122a, 122b, 131, and 141 related to the non-transfer portions 132 and 142 and the light diffraction structure need not be formed by the thermal transfer method.
- Each of the thermal transfer sheets 123, 133, and 150 has a back surface outside the base sheets 124, 134, and 153 to prevent fusion with a heating element such as a thermal head and to improve paper feedability.
- Layers may be provided.
- the back layer can prevent the back surface from adhering to a surface layer such as a fluorescent ink layer when the transfer film is wound in a roll shape or sheets are stacked.
- the back layer preferably has heat-resistant lubricity and mold release properties.
- the material of the back layer include materials having releasability, such as curable silicone oil, curable silicone wax, silicone resin, fluorine resin, and acrylic resin.
- the thickness of the back layer is usually formed to be 0.1-3.
- layers may be further laminated in addition to the above-described layers.
- an adhesive layer corresponding to the transfer target 200 may be provided on the top of each of the thermal transfer sheets 123, 133, and 150.
- the character transfer unit 122b is not limited to character information, and may have a predetermined shape such as a symbol or pattern. Ma
- the location where the diffraction grating 151b is transferred to form a predetermined shape is not limited to one location.
- the variable information can be increased in addition to the thermal transfer information section 121, and the security is enhanced as the purpose of use is expanded.
- the patterns and characters shown in the hologram transfer unit 110, the first diffraction grating transfer unit 120, the second diffraction grating transfer unit 130, and the third diffraction grating transfer unit 140 are not limited to the above-described embodiments.
- the diffraction grating portion 15 lb may be first transferred so as to avoid the shapes of the non-transfer portions 132 and 142.
- a gap is formed in the shape of the non-transfer portions 132 and 142, so that stealth ink may be filled in the gap.
- the outermost surface of the non-transfer portions 132 and 142 does not need to contain the release agent.
- printing may be performed using ordinary visible ink that can be replaced with stealth ink.
