La présente invention est relative à un document fiduciaire ou assimilé, du type qui comprend un support sur lequel sont prévues des impressions de sécurité. Elle concerne également un procédé pour son obtention. Par "document fiduciaire", on entend tous les documents tels que billets de banque, chèques, cartes bancaires, servant à transmettre une somme d'argent. Par "document assimilé", on entend tous les documents émis par une administration de l'Etat pour attester de l'identité d'une personne, de ses droits à conduire un véhicule... A titre non limitatif, on peut citer la carte d'identité, le passeport, le permis de conduire, etc. Par cette expression, on entend également tout document servant à authentifier un objet de valeur. Il peut s'agir par exemple d'une étiquette apposée sur un vêtement de luxe.The present invention relates to a fiduciary document or similar, of the type which comprises a support on which are provided security printing. It also relates to a process for obtaining it. "Fiduciary document" means all documents such as banknotes, checks, bank cards, used to transmit a sum of money. By "assimilated document" is meant all the documents issued by an administration of the State to attest to the identity of a person, his rights to drive a vehicle ... Non-limiting, we can mention the map identity, passport, driving license, etc. By this expression is also meant any document used to authenticate an object of value. This may be for example a label affixed to a luxury garment.
L'un des principaux axes de recherche de nouvelles sécurités fiduciaires est celui qui consiste à mettre au point des éléments aisément indentifiables par l'homme de la rue, mais avec un niveau de complexité élevé en termes d'élaboration.One of the main lines of research for new fiduciary securities is the development of easily identifiable elements by the man in the street, but with a high level of complexity in terms of elaboration.
Tels sont les cas du filigrane dans le papier et des hologrammes, pour ne citer que ces derniers. Plus généralement, les encres destinées à l'impression d'effets visuels sécuritaires (irisation, changement de couleurs selon l'angle d'observation etc.) sont constituées de mélanges de substances difficiles à obtenir et/ou dont les formulations sont complexes. On comprend que le niveau de sécurité de ces encres, en théorie introuvables pour les non-professionnels, constitue un premier élément, important, de la sécurité.Such are the case of the watermark in paper and holograms, to name only the latter. More generally, inks intended for the printing of safe visual effects (iridescence, color change depending on the angle of observation, etc.) consist of mixtures of substances that are difficult to obtain and / or whose formulations are complex. We understand that the level of security of these inks, in theory not found for non-professionals, is a first important element of security.
Il est toutefois fondamental de considérer que les techniques d'impression qui mettent en œuvre des encres particulières dans l'imprimerie fiduciaire forment l'autre versant de la sécurité.It is important to consider, however, that printing techniques that use special inks in fiduciary printing form the other side of security.
Tout d'abord, un haut niveau de conception graphique des éléments à imprimer constitue la base de cette sécurité. Ensuite, une large palette de techniques d'impression (offset, sérigraphie, taille-douce, flexographie, typographie...) peut être mise en œuvre lors de la réalisation, certaines de ces techniques, comme la taille douce, étant très spécifiques au métier de l'imprimerie fiduciaire. De surcroît, la combinaison des procédés d'impression permet d'obtenir des finesses de design, des imbrications de motifs, des alliances d'effets très difficiles à reproduire avec un matériel standard d'imprimerie et encore plus facilement détectable lorsqu'il s'agit d'une contrefaçon, ou d'une falsification faisant appel à du matériel de reproduction grand public (scanner, imprimantes laser ou à jet d'encre couleur etc .).First, a high level of graphic design of the elements to be printed is the basis of this security. Then, a wide range of printing techniques (offset, silkscreen, intaglio, flexography, typography ...) can be implemented during the realization, some of these techniques, such as the soft-sizing, being very specific to fiduciary printing business. In addition, the combination of printing processes makes it possible to obtain design subtleties, pattern interweaving, effect alliances that are very difficult to reproduce with standard printing equipment and that are even more easily detectable when it is used. is a counterfeit, or falsification using consumer reproductive material (scanner, laser or color inkjet printers etc).
Pour allier simplicité de l'effet et difficulté d'élaboration (et donc de reproduction) d'un élément de sécurité fiduciaire, il est alors intéressant d'associer la complexité des substances mises en œuvre et l'originalité des effets qu'elles présentent avec des conceptions graphiques recherchées et des techniques d'impression différentes, elle-même difficiles à mettre en œuvre et/ou indisponibles dans le domaine public.To combine the simplicity of the effect and the difficulty of elaborating (and therefore reproducing) a fiduciary security element, it is then interesting to associate the complexity of the substances used with the originality of the effects they present. with desirable graphic designs and different printing techniques, which are themselves difficult to implement and / or unavailable in the public domain.
Il faut toutefois mentionner que le développement de nouveaux effets sur les encres induit immanquablement des coûts de recherche conséquents. Dans cette même perspective, les deux axes cités (encres - conception graphique/techniques d'impression) peuvent être combinés pour élever en conséquence le niveau de sécurité mais cela renchérit encore le coût de fabrication.It should be mentioned, however, that the development of new effects on inks inevitably leads to significant research costs. In this same perspective, the two axes mentioned (inks - graphic design / printing techniques) can be combined to raise the level of security accordingly, but this increases the cost of manufacture.
Ainsi, pour des imprimeurs dont la profession est la production de documents de valeur, il est donc capital de se concentrer sur le cœur de métier, c'est-à-dire la conception graphique et les techniques d'impression afin de garantir un haut niveau de sécurité pour ses clients et, bien entendu, une maîtrise des coûts de production.Thus, for printers whose profession is the production of valuable documents, it is therefore essential to focus on the core business, that is to say the graphic design and printing techniques to ensure a high level of security for its customers and, of course, control of production costs.
L'une des techniques connues pour dissimuler un motif ou un texte dans un ensemble imprimé sur un support est celle de l'image latente réalisée en taille douce, dont la principale caractéristique est qu'il s'agit d'une impression tactile en relief (déformation mécanique du support, surmontée d'une couche épaisse d'encre, l'ensemble allant jusqu'à 100 micromètres). Selon cette technique, un fond est imprimé en relief, avec ou sans encre, préférentiellement sans, selon une première trame de trait et avec une inclinaison donnée, et le motif à dissimuler y est inséré, de manière à générer une brisure dans cette trame, selon un angle différent, par exemple orthogonal à la première inclinaison, si bien que l'image latente est difficile à repérer selon une direction d'observation normale au plan du support, mais décelable en observation rasante.One of the known techniques for concealing a pattern or text in a set printed on a medium is that of the latent image made in intaglio, the main feature of which is that it is a tactile impression in relief (mechanical deformation of the support, surmounted by a thick layer of ink, the whole up to 100 micrometers). According to this technique, a background is printed in relief, with or without ink, preferentially without, according to a first line of feature and with a given inclination, and the pattern to be hidden is inserted, so as to generate a break in this frame, at a different angle, for example orthogonal to the first inclination, so that the latent image is difficult to locate according to a direction of observation normal to the plane of the support, but detectable in grazing observation.
Plusieurs images latentes peuvent être imbriquées. Un des inconvénients de cette technique est que lorsque l'on souhaite obtenir un graphisme bien visible pour le motif ou le texte imprimé, il est parfois possible de le détecter relativement aisément sous plusieurs angles d'observation, y compris l'angle normal.Several latent images can be nested. One of the drawbacks of this technique is that when it is desired to obtain a clearly visible graphic for the pattern or the printed text, it is sometimes possible to detect it relatively easily from several angles of observation, including the normal angle.
L'inverse est également vrai, c'est-à-dire que si le graphisme dissimulé est très discret, il sera d'autant plus difficile à retrouver. Le corollaire de tout ceci est que les graphismes à cacher ne peuvent être que simples. On décrit dans le document US-4,715,623 un document comportant des impressions de sécurité faites par impression en taille- douce, sans encre. Dans les premiers modes de réalisation, on a affaire à un "message invisible" qui est réalisé par impression en taille-douce selon une orientation de lignes perpendiculaires à l'orientation des lignes de l'arrière-plan. Ainsi, selon l'angle de vision et l'orientation de la source de lumière, le "message invisible" est révélé sous forme claire ou foncée par rapport à l'arrière-plan.The opposite is also true, that is to say that if the hidden graphics is very discreet, it will be even more difficult to find. The corollary of all this is that the graphics to hide can only be simple. Document US Pat. No. 4,715,623 describes a document comprising security prints made by intaglio printing, without ink. In the first embodiments, there is an "invisible message" which is made by intaglio printing in an orientation of lines perpendicular to the orientation of the lines of the background. Thus, depending on the viewing angle and the orientation of the light source, the "invisible message" is revealed in light or dark form relative to the background.
Dans un autre mode de réalisation, on imprime sur le document un message qui se situe au-dessus de l'impression en taille- douce.In another embodiment, a message is printed on the document that is above the intaglio print.
Il s'agit donc d'une technique particulière de réalisation d'une image latente en timbre sec (taille douce sans encre) visible seulement en réflexion spéculaire dans un domaine précis d'angle (angle d'observation par rapport à la surface du support). D'autre part, la marque cachée n'est visible que dans un domaine d'angle latéral donné (angle de l'axe d'observation par rapport à l'axe des reliefs/sillons des lignes de ladite marque).It is therefore a particular technique for producing a latent image in dry stamp (soft size without ink) visible only in specular reflection in a specific angle range (viewing angle with respect to the surface of the support ). On the other hand, the hidden mark is visible only in a given area of lateral angle (angle of the axis of observation relative to the axis of the reliefs / grooves of the lines of said mark).
On a affaire à une sécurité constituée d'un timbre sec sous forme d'image latente qui peut être plus ou moins bien dissimulée. En ce qui concerne les fonds "anti-photocopie" et "antiscanner", deux techniques principales sont connues. La première consiste à perturber l'étape d'acquisition de l'image lors du balayage lumineux de l'appareil, en incluant des motifs avec des matériaux réfléchissants la lumière sur l'original (hologrammes, encres métalliques...), qui apparaîtront noirs ou gris sur les copies. II existe néanmoins aujourd'hui des contrefaçons très approchantes d'hologrammes. D'autre part, les encres avec des effets brillants métalliques sont de plus en plus accessibles pour les contrefacteurs.We are dealing with a security consisting of a dry stamp in the form of a latent image that can be more or less concealed. With regard to "anti-photocopying" and "antiscanner" funds, two main techniques are known. The first is to disrupt the image acquisition step during the luminous scanning of the camera, including patterns with light reflective materials on the original (holograms, metallic inks ...), which will appear black or gray on the copies. Nevertheless, today there are very similar counterfeits of holograms. On the other hand, inks with shiny metallic effects are becoming more accessible for counterfeiters.
La seconde technique employée pour ces fonds anti-copies consiste à réaliser des enchevêtrements de lignes avec des fréquences de linéature multiples et des brisures, destinées à gêner la restitution de la copie à la résolution finale choisie et donc, à provoquer des effets moirés. Toutefois, là encore, avec l'évolution des équipements, la performance de ces fonds est de moins en moins satisfaisante. La présente invention a pour but de résoudre ces problèmes en proposant un document fiduciaire ou assimilé qui présente un niveau de protection renforcé et dont les éléments de sécurité de premier niveau favorisent d'une part leur reconnaissance par le grand public et, d'autre part, permettent d'assurer une protection efficace contre la reproduction et, en particulier, contre celle qui a recours à l'utilisation de scanners et/ou de photocopieurs.The second technique used for these anti-copy funds is to perform entanglements of lines with multiple frequencies of scintillation and broken, intended to interfere with the reproduction of the copy at the chosen final resolution and thus to cause moiré effects. However, again, with the evolution of equipment, the performance of these funds is less and less satisfactory. The purpose of the present invention is to solve these problems by proposing a fiduciary or similar document which has a reinforced level of protection and whose first-level security elements favor, on the one hand, their recognition by the general public and, on the other hand, , ensure effective protection against reproduction and, in particular, against the use of scanners and / or photocopiers.
Il s'agit donc d'un document fiduciaire ou assimilé, tel qu'un billet de banque, un passeport, une carte d'identité, du type qui comprend un support sur lequel sont prévues des impressions de sécurité. Conformément à l'invention, les impressions de sécurité comprennent :It is therefore a fiduciary document or similar, such as a bank note, a passport, an identity card, the type that includes a support on which are provided security impressions. In accordance with the invention, the security impressions include:
- un premier motif constitué d'une impression d'une première encre sous forme d'un à-plat , ajouré ou non ;- A first pattern consisting of an impression of a first ink in the form of a flat, perforated or not;
- au moins un deuxième motif, non identique au premier, constitué d'une impression d'une deuxième encre sous forme de traits et/ou d'au moins un à-plat, l'un des deux motifs recouvrant au moins partiellement l'autre ;at least one second unit, not identical to the first, consisting of an impression of a second ink in the form of lines and / or at least one flat, one of the two patterns covering at least partially the other;
- une impression en taille douce qui recouvre au moins la surface commune auxdits premier et deuxième motifs, de sorte que : - le motif qui présente la surface la plus grande est visible et l'autre motif est au moins partiellement invisible à l'œil nu, selon un éclairage naturel ou artificiel, sous réflexion spéculaire,- a intaglio printing which covers at least the common surface to said first and second patterns, so that: - the pattern that has the largest surface is visible and the other pattern is at least partially invisible to the naked eye, according to a natural or artificial lighting, under specular reflection,
- tandis que ledit autre motif devient intégralement visible à l'œil nu selon un éclairage naturel ou artificiel sous la forme d'une source lumineuse diffuse.- While said other pattern becomes fully visible to the naked eye in natural or artificial lighting in the form of a diffuse light source.
Grâce à cet ensemble de caractéristiques, l'homme de la rue va pouvoir discerner, selon l'orientation de son observation vis-à-vis du document, l'un ou l'autre des motifs. Par ailleurs, ledit autre motif est indéniablement confirmé lors d'une observation en transmission à travers le document (transvision). Dans ce cas, toutefois, d'éventuelles zones calandrées et/ou images latentes générées auparavant en taille douce sont invisibles.Thanks to this set of characteristics, the man of the street will be able to discern, according to the orientation of his observation vis-à-vis the document, one or other of the reasons. Moreover, said other motive is undeniably confirmed during a transmission observation through the document (transvision). In this case, however, any calendered zones and / or latent images previously generated in intaglio are invisible.
De plus, dès qu'une photocopie de ce document fiduciaire sera réalisée, seul un motif apparaîtra, à savoir celui qui occupe la surface la plus importante, ce qui permettra aisément de déterminer l'origine frauduleuse de ce document.Moreover, as soon as a photocopy of this fiduciary document is made, only one reason will appear, namely the one that occupies the largest area, which will easily determine the fraudulent origin of this document.

Par ailleurs, la présente invention est relative à un procédé de fabrication d'un document conforme à l'une des caractéristiques précédentes. Ce procédé comprend les étapes successives suivantes :Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a document according to one of the preceding characteristics. This process comprises the following successive steps:

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de la présente invention apparaîtront à la lecture de la description détaillée qui va suivre d'un mode de réalisation préférentiel.Other features and advantages of the present invention will appear on reading the detailed description which follows of a preferred embodiment.
Cette description sera faite en référence aux dessins annexés, dans lesquels :This description will be made with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
- la figure 1 est un schéma représentant un billet de banque comportant des impressions de sécurité conformes à la présente invention ; - les figures 2 à 4 sont des schémas qui représentent les différentes étapes du procédé de fabrication du document de la figure 1 ;- Figure 1 is a diagram showing a bank note with security printing according to the present invention; FIGS. 2 to 4 are diagrams which represent the different steps of the manufacturing process of the document of FIG. 1;
- les figures 5 à 7 sont des schémas destinés à illustrer ce qui est vu par un observateur lorsqu'il observe le document de la figure 1 , en réflexion spéculaire ou autre. La présente description est donnée en référence à un billet de banque 1 tel que celui représenté à la figure 1.FIGS. 5 to 7 are diagrams intended to illustrate what is seen by an observer when he observes the document of FIG. 1, in specular or other reflection. This description is given with reference to a banknote 1 such as that shown in FIG.
Toutefois, il est bien entendu que la présente invention s'applique à tout autre document fiduciaire ou assimilé, dont le passeport et la carte d'identité sont des exemples non limitatifs. Pour faciliter la consultation de la figure 1 , on s'est contenté d'y représenter les impressions de sécurité qui constituent le cœur de l'invention, ainsi que la mention de sa valeur faciale 2.However, it is understood that the present invention applies to any other fiduciary document or similar, whose passport and identity card are non-limiting examples. To facilitate the consultation of Figure 1, it was sufficient to represent the safety impressions that constitute the heart of the invention, as well as the mention of its facial value 2.
Autrement dit, toutes les autres impressions et mentions habituellement présentes sur un tel billet ne sont pas représentées, dans un but de simplification.In other words, all other impressions and mentions usually present on such a ticket are not represented, for the sake of simplification.
Le billet 1 comporte une face recto 3 et une face verso 4.The ticket 1 has a front face 3 and a reverse side 4.
Conformément à l'invention, la face recto 3 comporte un premier motif 5, un deuxième motif 6, ainsi qu'une impression en taille douce 7.According to the invention, the front face 3 comprises a first pattern 5, a second pattern 6, and a printing intaglio 7.
Bien entendu, la face verso 4 pourrait présenter des impressions similaires ou de forme différente.Of course, the reverse side 4 could have similar impressions or different shape.
Dans l'exemple représenté ici, le premier motif 5 consiste en une représentation schématique de la carte de France. Le deuxième motif est quant à lui constitué de la succession verticale des lettres du mot 6 "FRANCE".In the example shown here, the first pattern 5 consists of a schematic representation of the map of France. The second reason is constituted by the vertical succession of the letters of the word 6 "FRANCE".
Par ailleurs, l'impression en taille douce 7 recouvre les deux motifs 5 et 6. Elle est en repérage par rapport au motif 5.Furthermore, the intaglio printing 7 covers the two patterns 5 and 6. It is in registration with respect to the pattern 5.
L'observation des figures 2 à 4 permet de comprendre la manière dont ces impressions sont réalisées.The observation of FIGS. 2 to 4 makes it possible to understand how these prints are made.
Dans une première étape, c'est le premier motif 5 qui est imprimé sur la face recto du billet. Cette impression est réalisée en utilisant une première encre, sous la forme d'un à-plat 50, c'est-à-dire d'un recouvrement uniforme de l'ensemble de ce motif avec ladite encre. Avantageusement, l'encre utilisée présente un effet brillant.In a first step, it is the first pattern 5 which is printed on the front side of the note. This printing is carried out using a first ink, in the form of a flat 50, that is to say a uniform covering of all of this pattern with said ink. Advantageously, the ink used has a brilliant effect.
Encore plus avantageusement, l'encre en question est choisie parmi les encres incluant des constituants métalliques, les encres optiquement variables, les encres magnétiques optiquement variables et les encres iridescentes. On préférera utiliser une encre présentant un effet brillant argenté, imprimée par exemple en offset, mais on peut toutefois envisager d'utiliser des encres présentant des nuances différentes, telles que or, rouge, vert ou bleue.Even more advantageously, the ink in question is selected from inks including metallic constituents, optically variable inks, optically variable magnetic inks and iridescent inks. It is preferable to use an ink having a silvery shiny effect, printed for example in offset, but it is nevertheless possible to envisage using inks having different shades, such as gold, red, green or blue.
Le deuxième motif 6 est réalisé par impression d'une deuxième encre sous la forme d'un à-plat et ce motif recouvre une partie du premier motif. En d'autres termes, à l'aplomb du deuxième motif "FRANCE", il existe deux couches superposées d'encre, de sorte que la densité de matière dans cette région est supérieure à celle présente dans les régions restantes du motif 5, préférentiellement au moins le double. Dans l'exemple représenté ici, le deuxième motif est constitué d'un mot, en l'occurrence "FRANCE".The second pattern 6 is made by printing a second ink in the form of a flat and this pattern covers part of the first pattern. In other words, in line with the second "FRANCE" pattern, there are two superposed layers of ink, so that the density of material in this region is greater than that present in the remaining regions of the pattern 5, preferably at least double. In the example shown here, the second pattern consists of a word, in this case "FRANCE".
Toutefois, d'autres motifs peuvent être envisagés. Il peut s'agir d'un dessin de structure plus compliquée par exemple d'un emblème ou du blason de l'Etat émettant le billet 1 , ou tout autre motif imprimable, compréhensible ou non.However, other reasons may be considered. It may be a more complicated structural design for example of an emblem or coat of arms of the State issuing the ticket 1, or any other printable pattern, understandable or not.
Dans le présent exemple, le deuxième motif recouvre une petite partie du premier motif 5.In the present example, the second pattern covers a small portion of the first pattern 5.
Dans des modes de réalisation différents non représentés, on peut tout à fait envisager que ce second motif 6 recouvre totalement l'étendue du premier motif, voire s'étende au-delà de celui-ci. Dans ce cas, il sera ajouré pour laisser des zones avec une seule couche d'encre.In different embodiments not shown, it is quite possible that this second pattern 6 completely covers the extent of the first pattern, or even extends beyond it. In this case, it will be perforated to leave areas with a single layer of ink.
Dans encore un autre mode de réalisation, le second motif 6 peut recouvrir partiellement le premier motif 5 et s'étendre à l'extérieur de celui-ci. Dans un mode de réalisation non représenté, l'ordre d'impression est inversé, ce qui signifie que le "deuxième motif" 6 est imprimé en premier.In yet another embodiment, the second pattern 6 may partially overlap the first pattern 5 and extend outwardly therefrom. In an embodiment not shown, the print order is reversed, which means that the "second pattern" 6 is printed first.
Préférentiellement, on utilisera une encre de même couleur que celle utilisée pour imprimer le premier motif. Idéalement, il s'agira exactement de la même encre.Preferably, an ink of the same color as that used to print the first pattern will be used. Ideally, it will be exactly the same ink.
Ces deux encres, dans un mode de réalisation préféré, seront imprimées en offset.These two inks, in a preferred embodiment, will be offset printed.
La troisième étape du procédé consiste à réaliser une impression en taille douce 7 qui recouvre au moins la surface commune au premier 5 et deuxième motif 6.The third step of the method consists in producing a intaglio printing 7 which covers at least the common surface of the first 5 and second pattern 6.
En l'occurrence, dans l'exemple représenté ici, l'impression en taille douce 7 recouvre la totalité de la surface du premier motif 5 ; elle est en repérage avec ce dernier.In this case, in the example shown here, the intaglio printing 7 covers the entire surface of the first pattern 5; she is in tracking with the latter.
On notera cependant la présence de deux zones 70 et 71. La première 70 est ici en forme de carré et ne présente aucun réseau de lignes d'embossage, ce qui constitue un calandrage. La seconde 71 , en forme de triangle, présente un réseau de lignes orienté perpendiculairement au réseau de base de l'impression 7, ce qui constitue une image latente, ce triangle n'étant visible que sous certains angles d'observation. Cette impression en taille douce est réalisée avec ou sans encre, mais préférentiellement sous la forme d'un timbre sec.Note however the presence of two zones 70 and 71. The first 70 is here in the form of a square and has no network of embossing lines, which is a calendering. The second 71, in the form of a triangle, has a network of lines oriented perpendicularly to the basic network of the printing 7, which constitutes a latent image, this triangle being visible only at certain viewing angles. This intaglio printing is performed with or without ink, but preferably in the form of a dry stamp.
Ce traitement a pour effet, grâce à l'embossage, de masquer le motif 6. De surcroit, la zone calandrée 70 a pour effet d'augmenter localement la brillance des encres utilisées précédemment, ce qui contribue, d'une autre manière, à dissimuler le motif 6.This treatment has the effect, thanks to the embossing, of masking the pattern 6. In addition, the calender zone 70 has the effect of locally increasing the brightness of the inks previously used, which contributes, in another way, to hide the reason 6.
Enfin, l'image latente 71 en forme de triangle augmente la sécurité de l'ensemble.Finally, the latent image 71 in the form of a triangle increases the security of the assembly.
On se reportera maintenant aux figures 5 à 7 qui illustrent des modes d'observation du billet 1. Le cas de la figure 5 représente une observation à l'œil nu en réflexion spéculaire selon un éclairage naturel ou artificiel L.Reference will now be made to FIGS. 5 to 7 which illustrate modes of observation of ticket 1. The case of FIG. 5 represents an observation with the naked eye in specular reflection according to natural or artificial lighting L.
Selon ce mode d'observation dans lequel l'angle d'observation par rapport à la surface du billet est un angle α autour de 45°, seul le premier motif 5 est observable, en raison de l'embossage consécutif à l'impression en taille douce 7. On décèle également l'élément 70, en tant que zone calandrée (miroir), ainsi que l'élément 71 en tant qu'image latente.According to this observation mode in which the observation angle with respect to the surface of the note is an angle α around 45 °, only the first pattern 5 is observable, because of the embossing subsequent to the printing in 7. The element 70 is also detected as a calender zone (mirror) and the element 71 as a latent image.
En revanche, et comme illustré à la figure 6, dès que le document est observé au moyen d'une lumière diffuse symbolisée par le fait que l'éclairage de la source lumineuse L est stoppé par un écran E et provient de ce fait de toutes les directions avec des intensités égales, alors les motifs 5 et 6 sont révélés. Ceci est vrai pour une grande variété d'angles β d'observation (de l'observation rasante à une observation selon un angle perpendiculaire au document.On the other hand, and as illustrated in FIG. 6, as soon as the document is observed by means of a diffuse light symbolized by the fact that the illumination of the light source L is stopped by a screen E and therefore comes from all directions with equal intensities, then patterns 5 and 6 are revealed. This is true for a wide variety of angles β of observation (grazing observation to an observation at an angle perpendicular to the document.
En tout état de cause, la présence des deux motifs en confirmée, sans aucune ambiguïté, en observant le document en transvision, comme le montre la figure 7.In any case, the presence of the two motives confirmed, unambiguously, by observing the document in transvision, as shown in Figure 7.
L'utilisateur d'un tel billet peut donc lui-même et sans aucun appareillage, constater la présence des différentes impressions de sécurité portées par le billet. En revanche, dès lors qu'une photocopie d'un tel document sera réalisée, l'embossage de l'impression en taille douce 7 ne sera pas reproduit ou d'une manière très dégradée et donc reconnaissable, ainsi que l'effet brillant des encres.The user of such a ticket can therefore itself and without any apparatus, to note the presence of the different security impressions carried by the ticket. On the other hand, once a photocopy of such a document is produced, the embossing of the intaglio printing 7 will not be reproduced or in a very degraded and therefore recognizable way, as well as the brilliant effect of inks.
Par ailleurs, seul le premier graphisme 5 sera copié.Moreover, only the first graphic 5 will be copied.
Par conséquent, la contrefaçon sera directement discernable. Les impressions des premier et second motifs peuvent être réalisées par tout procédé adapté, par exemple en flexographie ou en sérigraphie, préférentiellement en offset.Therefore, counterfeiting will be directly discernible. The prints of the first and second patterns can be made by any suitable method, for example in flexography or screen printing, preferably in offset.
Cette technique d'offset sera avantageusement utilisée pour la réalisation du deuxième motif afin d'obtenir des détails et des finesses complexes que les contrefacteurs auront du mal à reproduire, sans en obtenir une numérisation fidèle. This offset technique will be advantageously used for the realization of the second pattern to obtain complex details and finesses that counterfeiters will have difficulty reproducing, without obtaining a faithful digitization.
